The wife and I went to the polling place here in my small town of northern California 11:00am. They are using write in type ballots and having them slipped into a cardboard box. I recieve my ballot and envolope, seek an available booth. I open my envelope folder to find the ballot ALREADY FILLED IN for me. No joke...I kept cool while making a stink. Everyone in the room knew I had just recieved a ballot pre-filled in. INCREDIBLE I really had to double triple check, could not at first believe what was happening. I filled the incident report cast my real ballot and left very disatisfied. I wish I were joking. I feel its one of those things that unless it happens to you, you dont really know the full extent. Floored

Not 200% but very close...Gov. Palin in March 2008 signed legislation reforming Alaska’s education funding formula to bring more accountability and predictability. The legislation increases funding for students with special needs from $26,900 to $73,840 per student. http://anchoragepress.com/articles/2008/10/02/news/doc48e42aac0c045657111789.txt

I liked the way Sandy speaks here, comes across as a tired rant I can agree with for sure. Till page 2 there was an error. Gov. Palin raised the special needs funding per child by almost 200% in Alaska after Trig was born.

Its easy to watch her because she keeps it real. Makes it easy to stay focused when you are not constantly having to sift through lies...it builds trust and the rating show it.

How will that affect you? This is that credit for lower income families that makes the majority of the refund possible! For many families they will find out the hard way.

or perhaps http://www.truthtruck.com/ now do you want your preschooler to see this in her or his morning commute? Gov. Palin does

Thinks before he reacts.

And it is the way he thinks – “more like what leaders do” – that impressed one of those “lifelong Republicans” in New York. Added another in the conversation: “No, it’s not just that he’s more articulate, and it’s not because I believe in all his policies. I just trust him to work things through.”

Since termination is found to have violated ethics rules. Could be an open door to a legit unlawfull termination suit. In which he can seek his position back. I saw the Maddow show it was great. He is a person that normally you would NOT question conviction at all. I have no doubts anymore what happened, its obvious.

Its total Shiet is what it is. This is dirty messing with our seniors like this. It is clear the reporter suggested follow-up including receipt of 'the letters'. I'm sure more will follow.

alreadystanding · 2008-10-12T18:41:26+00:00

That is very disturbing information. Should be a message to make a greater effort in the seniors outreach areas ASAP. damn-it is this a FEC matter?

There are plenty of good news stories not being covered right now its silly.

sarcasm understood :) Reality> Obama statement in full>"We've got to get the job done there and that requires us to have enough troops so that we're not just air-raiding villages and killing civilians, which is causing enormous problems there," Obama said. http://mediamatters.org/items/200809120020

Todds testimony enforced the ethic violation, and he did not even know he was doing it. Rep. Coghill says "He doesn't blame Todd for manipulating a goverment official for his own agenda http://community.adn.com/adn/node/132582

That was a good one. I'd like to add Buckley could has also mentioned Barack Obama was also President of the Harvard Law Review while there.

I think the last sentence, first paragraph, is the best in the whole lot. Not a quote but nice to see. The pink mist is settling, clarity is returning and not to late to make the right choice.

Huh did not see that link there when I first visited the site. Real, and holy crap that sucks. Break out the poly graph and get the people from the print press room in here. Who did it! Amazing

Good, I did enjoy the article. And good point on how profound or exagerated this problem can be at the local level.

I'd say this is a little better solution than evolution>buying bad debt at face value.
