OPINION:

SARAH PALIN IS RUNNING FROM SOMETHING. SHE RAN FOR VICE PRESIDENT, HAS ANNOUNCED INTENTION OF SEEKING THE PRESIDENCY AND HAS JUST ANNOUNCED SHE IS QUITTING A GOVERNORSHIP.

PAIN DESERVED THE ATTENTION SHE IS GETTING.

SOME OF US ARE APPALLED THAT THIS NUT JOB COULD HAVE BEEN A HEART BEAT AWAY FROM THE PRESIDENCY OF THE UNITED STATES , AN NOW SHE...WANTS TO BE PRESIDENT

"You don't call a press conference and raise questions. You call a press conference to answer questions. She has basically left out there everyone asking, why is she doing this? There must be another reason. There must be another shoe that's gonna drop. There's something else.[12]

PALIN HAS EVOLVED FROM PIT BULL TO A FRAZZLED KITTEN

On Friday, the self-described pit bull announced she will step down as governor by the end of the month. She spoke vaguely about hoping to "effect positive change outside of government," but gave no specific indication of what's next. [10]

THIS DOES NOT RING TRUE

Alaskan Governors explanation for resignation does not ring true, my opinion is a scandal is about to break .

NORTH TO ALASKA, INVESTIGATIONS ARE UNDER WAY.

Despite rumors of a looming controversy after the Republican governor's surprise announcement Friday that she would leave office this month, some of them published in the blogosphere, the FBI's Alaska spokesman said the bureau had no investigation into Palin for her activities as governor, as mayor or in any other capacity.[11]

THE PRESS IS PLAYING WHACK A MOLED, OR WHAT WE HAVE IN PALIN IS A WACKED OUT NUT JOB

Palin's surprising resignation triggered a feverish game of political whack-a-mole, leaving fans and foes guessing just where she will pop up.[10]

IF ITS NOT SARAH IT MUST BE TODD

"There is absolutely no truth to those rumors that we're investigating her or getting ready to indict her," Special Agent Eric Gonzalez said in a phone interview Saturday. "It's just not true." He added that there was "no wiggle room" in his comments for any kind of inquiry.[11]

PALIN HAS LAWYER UP

Palin has lawyered up, with her lawyers releasing a statement on Saturday denying allegations her resignation was linked to a criminal investigation on construction of a sports complex in Wasilla.

BLOGGER ARE LEADING IN THE COVERAGE OF THE PALIN COLLAPSE

Bloggers are s reporting that Palin is under federal investigation for her personal finances, including the construction of her house in Wasilla that was built when she was mayor. That sounds like old fashioned local political corruption.

BLOGOSPHERE IS AWASH WITH RUMOR AND OPINION, LIKE FOX NETWORK

The internet is awash with word that three more ethics complaints against Palin are in the works . A long simmering embezzelment/IRS scandal is still being looked at by the feds based on that construction of her house.

DID PALIN QUIT TO AVOID A CORRUPTION SCANDLE?

Max Blumental reports on The Daily Beast that Sarah Palin may have quit her job because she was trying to avert a major, yet-to-be-disclosed corruption scandal. The gist of the rumor is that an Alaska building company called Spenard Building Supplies (SBS) was awarded a contract by Palin to build a hockey arena in Wasilla, AK, and in return,
SBS helped construct Palin’s home: http://www.lipstickalley.com/f153/palin-hockey-arena-builders-built-her-house-embezzlement-ethics-probe-192801/#post4134577

DID PALINS HUSBAND TODD STEER LUCRATIVE CONTRACTS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF HIS HOME

Many political observers in Alaska are fixated on rumors that federal investigators have been seizing paperwork from SBS in recent months, searching for evidence that Palin and her husband Todd steered lucrative contracts to the well-connected company in exchange for gifts like the construction of their home on pristine Lake Lucille in 2002.

The home was built just two months before Palin began campaigning for governor, a job which would have provided her enhanced power to grant building contracts in the wide open state.
SBS has close ties to the Palins. The company has not only sponsored Todd Palin’s snowmobile team, according to the Village Voice’s Wayne Barrett, it hired Sarah Palin to do a statewide television commercial in 2004.

SBS A SUPPLIER, DID TODD BUY OR DID HE EARN A GIFT OF BUILDING MATERIAL FROM SBS

Though Todd Palin told Fox News he built his Lake Lucille home with the help of a few “buddies,” according to Barrett’s report, public records revealed that SBS supplied the materials for the house. While serving as mayor of Wasilla, Sarah Palin blocked an initiative that would have required the public filing of building permits—thus momentarily preventing the revelation of such suspicious information.

SBS WAS GRANTED A PUBLICLY BID 13 MILLION DOLLAR CONTRACT FOR THE WASILLA Sports Complex

Just months before Palin left city hall to campaign for governor, she awarded a contract to SBS to help build the $13 million Wasilla Sports Complex. The most expensive building project in Wasilla history, the complex cost the city an addition $1.3 million in legal fees and threw it into severe long-term debt. For SBS, however, the bloated and bungled project was a cash cow.http://www.lipstickalley.com/f153/palin-hockey-arena-builders-built-her-house-embezzlement-ethics-probe-192801/#post4134577

BLOGOSPHERE QUEEN MOORE SAYS PLAIN IS RUNNING FROM AN EMBEZZLEMENT INVESTICATION

"To the extent several websites, most notably liberal Alaska blogger Shannyn Moore, http://shannynmoore.wordpress.com/are now claiming as 'fact' that Governor Palin resigned because she is 'under federal investigation' for embezzlement or other criminal wrongdoing, we will be exploring legal options this week to address such defamation," lawyer Thomas Van Flein said in the statement.[2]

GOVERNOR SARAH PALIN SHOWS SHE IS GOOFY AGAIN, IN THE WAY SHE RESIGNS

Scores of left-leaning blogs posted speculation in the wake of Palin’s surprise announcement Friday and among the most common theories was that she was on the verge of federal indictment over the 2002 construction of the sports arena.

PALIN DID NOT OVERSEE THE WASILLA PROJECT

Making the case for his client, Van Flein writes that Palin, then the Mayor of Wasilla did not oversee the Steering Committee tasked with running the project. WALISILLA PROJECT WAS
OUIT SIDE HER SCOPE OF AUTHORITY

“While her public support of this project was deemed pivotal by many, the actual construction, bidding, financing and other day-to-day management of the project was not in her scope of authority as Mayor,” Van Flein writes.

THE WALISSAL PROJECT WAS PUBLICLY BID

Van Flein also notes that the project was publicly bid and therefore Palin had little control over construction. SBS, SPENARD BUILDING SUPPLY, THEY SOLD THE STUFF TO HER
The attorney also addressed another of the bloggers’ claims: that Palin purchased building materials to build her own home from the same supply store as was used by those who built the arena.
“Prior to the construction of Lowe’s and Home Depot within the last few years in Wasilla, Spenard Builders Supply was the primary building supply company in Wasilla,” Van Flein writes. “It can hardly come as a surprise that it would sell materials to small homeowners or that it would also bid to supply commercial contracts.”

PLAIN FINANCE HER HOME IN THE TRADITIONAL MANNER

As for how the Palin’s financed their home on Wasilla’s Lake Lucille, Van Flein says they “used a combination of personal savings, equity from the sale of their prior home, and conventional bank financing to build the house— like millions of American families. The deeds of trust are recordable public records. Basic journalism and fact checking would confirm this.”[14]

REPUBLICANS REMAIN RUDDERLESS AS A PARTY AS PALIN ENGAGES IN HER POLITICAL PSYCO BABBLE DRAMMA

The only motivation that would cause her to give up the Governorship would be to cut a deal to avoid prosecution of the realization she would soon be charged.
