Who are they, these Palinistas? Some, of course claim to know them.
Palinbots, wingnuts, cultists….the list could go on and on – and that is just from some of the comments critical of Palin and her supporters at Hot Air, a leading conservative internet hang out.

Despite what the media and Governor Palin’s detractors say, her record has been effective and fiscally sound. It’s ironic that the New York Times’s attempt at journalism in highlighting misrepresentations of Governor Palin’s record comes shortly after they announced that they will be charging for access to their site due to shrinking readership. So, while they generate faux concern for Governor Palin’s fiscal legacy, they should probably be more concerned with their own.

Governor Palin faced challenges that no other Governor in the country had to face in terms of constructing a taxation regime that balanced the need to generate an appropriate amount of income from oil taxation to fund state government with the need to incentivize and encourage oil production. This survey suggests that the tax regime she crafted and implemented has successfully balanced the conflicting interests at play.

Even court-jester Ivan Moore finds Palin’s numbers in Alaska to be over 27% higher than the numbers found by the Daily Kos pollster. If you recall, Moore had McCain/Palin winning Alaska by only 11 percent when they won by around 22 percent in reality.

Stacy has already given a rundown of interim Chief of Staff Pete Rouse’s roles in the Obama administration and nefarious dealings with some players in Alaska politics. Another questionable aspect of Rouse is his voting history. In the past several days, Governor Palin tweeted a series of tweets regarding Alaska “resident”, Pete Rouse: (Rahm’s the [...]

Dust and ashes, dead and done with, Venice spent what Venice earned. The soul, doubtless, is immortal — where a soul can be discerned. Those lines are from one of my favorite poems, A Toccata of Galuppi’s by Robert Browning. They’ve been running through my mind for weeks now every time I think about the [...]

“When I took office in 2006, I committed to every Alaskan and to Washington, D.C., that this administration would seek fewer earmarks and meet more of Alaska’s challenges with fewer federal funds, so needed earmark reform could be realized,” said Governor Palin. “I am proud of the fact that we slashed the number of earmark requests by nearly 85 percent, and we’re not done.”

Many of you nervous morons (I love AoSHQ) are out there wringing your hands whimpering, “Oh no! Palin supports the porkulus!” Relax, people. When has the Associated Press or the other “AP” ever reported on Palin with complete accuracy? The AP and “AP” both hate Palin. You saw her hanging out with all the swells [...]
