How much would Repugs have charged for Alaska?
Edited on Mon Dec-15-08 04:43 PM by ukfordems
Will that seat go the way of the "I put it on Ebay", but sold it privately Plane?

With so much happening in the World it is quite funny to go and look at sites like nothalfbigoted. Blago has even managed to shift them from bigoting on about the birth certificate.

Mr Whitey Johnson has 8 pages about Blago on his hate filled forum. Not one topic about the economy or the Auto Industry non bail out.

Not even the Freepers have gone this mad over Blago.

Nothalfbigoted reminds me of a car crash. You know you should not slow down to look, but you do anyway because the person in front has done. How on earth do these deadenders keep up the hate levels 6 months after the primaries and a month after the General?

1. The Democrat won the Alaska US Senate race.
Also, Alaska law requires elections to fill US Senate vacancies (a change all 50 states should make.)

3. No
To be honest I missed that news on Alaska. Wow. Oh well Palin can not put that one on ebay then. Same point though. Sites like nothalfbigoted seem to think that Blago is the only story in existence.

4. Oh, gotcha.
I misunderstood your OP. Sorry! :hi:

You're right, I'm sooooo glad Begich won in Alaska. If Stevens had won, and was removed, Palin could have easily appointed herself to his Senate seat. I don't think she would have sold it to the highest bidder - my hunch is that her quest for political power trumps her need for financial wealth. At any rate, I want that woman as far away from DC as possible! If she must have a role in politics, let it be confined to one state...for all of our sakes!

:scared:

5. The only consistent message the bigots at NoQuarter have
is a love of Plain. Any criticism of Plain is sexist but if that person happens to be Caroline Kennedy. All becomes fair in hate and bigotry.

Nothalfbigoted are running with some lovely comments such as this :-

Caroline Schlossberg has not earned the seat nor is she qualified. She’s a housewife who hasn’t worked a day in her freakin life!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6. Alaska is one of the few (highly advanced) states
that no longer permits gubernatorial appointments. :)

7. Such a ban
would prevent future abuses.

This was my little rant about the bigots at noquarter. Who I consider lesser creatures than Freepers. Hey at least Freepers discussed Obama getting elected and the Auto industry. Anyway - its pretty much a free topic!

8. Oh, I didn't know that.
Even better! :hi:

I am sorry you are stuck with her, though. If it's any consolation, I have Sonny Perdue. :(
