Blogger Files Ethics Complaint, Palin Cry's FOUL

Al Grillo / AL GRILLO / The Associate Press
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, center sporting an Arctic Cat jacket, hugs her husband Todd, as their daughter Piper watches, left, before he and his partner began the Tesoro Iron Dog snowmachine race in Big Lake Feb. 8, 2009.
Seems a blogger has filed an ethics complaint against Sarah Palin...good for the blogger, as that complain should have been filed. Meanwhile, Sarah Palin is crying foul, wants to act as if she has done nothing WRONG.

The SKINNY...she wore Arctic Cat logo gear at the Iron Dog race, ran up and gave her husband a good luck kiss (she was there on official government business). Now it also needs to be mentioned here, that Arctic Cat just happens to be her husbands official sponsor...she just happens to be Governor....she just happens to be a NEWS MAGNET...Artic Cat's logo would RACE AROUND THE WORLD if she wore it when she delivered that kiss, and SHE KNEW IT.

To listen to her, she acts as if she was JUST WEARING A COAT because it was COLD OUT...who are we kidding. She knew exactly what she was doing, had on a BRAND NEW LOGOed ARTIC CAT coat on.

Let me splain it to you ditzy...If Sarah was just a plain old ordinary unknown Alaskan housewife running up to give her hubby a kiss, she can do whatever it is she wants to do. If she were a well known public celebrity that was NO LONGER IN OFFICE what she did would also NOT MATTER...she might or might not see that picture race around the world, but if it does, GREAT FOR HER HUSBAND as sponsors expect a return on their investment in the team. However, as a GOVERNOR, you have to carry yourself in a way that is ABOVE REPROACH, in a way that does not show favoritism. She KNEW before she put that jacket on, that the press would TAKE THAT PICTURE, knew it would provide HUGE REWARDS to both her and her husband for years to come. She BROKE ALASKA's ETHICS RULES, and in a BIG WAY...that little cat guaranteed her Husband's surgery for years to come, gave her and her husband a HUGE FINANCIAL REWARD.


Palin calls blogger's ethics complaint bogus

ALLEGED CONFLICT: Governor wore arctic cat gear at iron dog.

The second ethics complaint in a week filed against Gov. Sarah Palin alleges a conflict of interest when she wore Arctic Cat logo gear during this year's Tesoro Iron Dog snowmachine race.

Arctic Cat sponsors Palin's husband, Todd, in the world's longest snowmachine race -- Big Lake to Nome to Fairbanks.

Palin, in a press release, said it's all bogus.

"Yes, I wore Arctic Cat snow gear at an outdoor event, because it was cold outside, and by the way, today, I am wearing clothes bearing the names of Alaska artists, and a Glennallen Panthers basketball hoodie," Palin said in the release. "I am a walking billboard for the team's fundraiser! Should I expect to see an ethics charge for wearing these, or the Carhartts I wear to many public events? How much will this blogger's asinine political grandstanding cost all of us in time and money?"

Her Star Fading Fast, Palin CANCELS CPAC Appearance

In a move that has stunned her radical right wing, pro life conservative wing nut supporters, Sarah Palin of fleeting fame has dropped out of CPAC, will not be making her promised appearance at the event...probably out of fear she would not have placed well in the straw poll contest to pick a 2012 Presidential nominee for the Republican Ticket. The political whack job from Alaska of Troopergate Shame who has ZERO CHANCE at a successful White House run, and who may have seen her last win in a major political race when she became governor has seen her political stock tumble since Americans saw THE TRUE PALIN when she was McCain's running mate this past fall. Fake values, poor job of raising children who are now having children out of wedlock themselves, and putting her job before her downs syndrome child make her a poor choice as a role model, but the rabid religious right desparate for any one that can keep their radical agenda in the news have been propping the Radical Pentacostal woman up, doing everything in their power to keep her fleeting fame alive...this stunning cancellation may be the beginning of the end for the Sarah Palin show and the sooner she goes back to eating Moose meat off of paper plates, the better off we here in the main body of America will be.

(CNN) — Sarah Palin will not be attending the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington later this month, her office confirmed to CNN Tuesday.

The Alaska governor had been expected to serve as the headline attraction at the three day event, which is also scheduled to include conservative icons like Newt Gingrich, Rush Limbaugh, and Ann Coulter. The presidential straw poll conducted at the annual Washington gathering is widely viewed as a reliable bellwether of conservative support. Several of the GOP’s past — and potentially future — presidential hopefuls are also slated to address the gathering, including Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney and Ron Paul.
