Logan Act

We need to start using it for elected officials operating out of school.

Rickl:

I think what is now showing in that comment is perfect.
Unless Neo did a fix to make it that way, I can only you did fine.

You may take it as applying in general to any topic you comment on. Put up or shut up.

I mean, were this something like an actual vetted and approved article then we may have a case, but they publish all the opinion articles that they receive and (being an opinion) they do not count anyway.

I also find it amusing that they list mostly left wing radicals and tie them to Palin. They then go on to give a *totally unrelated* paragraph describing right wing radicals that has no association whatsoever with those leftiwng crazies and it is our own faults for being so stupid that we associate the two things together.

Plus, as we all know, the Captain is responsible for those in their ship. As senator Obama was only the first mate it follows it wasn’t his fault that Rezko, Wright, and Ayers were the ones that brought him into power and he attended their parties and accepted their money and attended their church (he had no other choice). However as governor Palin is responsible for every single nutjob in Alaska and if she were better there would be none of them.

Obviously them living in the same state as her is more important than attending their parties and calling them close friends and mentors – were you enlightened then you would also know this. As is you are a Republican rube who not only doesn’t understand opinion pages but can’t even accept that your elected candidates are the seed of the Devil and responsible for All Wrong in the World. Pfft, I feel sorry for you in this election as Obamania rolls across the country, so out of touch that you don’t even realize that the other rubes have finally found their better.

That comment didn’t come out the way it should have, although the link works. I guess I should count my blessings.

Even though there’s no evidence that Sarah Palin ever belonged to a white supremacist group, she actually lived within a thousand miles of people who did. So we had to publish it, just so you’d know.

Whenever they are accusing the Republicans or Bush of dong something, just switch it around to Democrats and Democrat leaders.

It solves a lot of mental backflips.

It looks as if it IS true, after all. But is it really damaging? If this gets to be anywhere near a controversy the MSM will fall all over themselves to absolve Obama. If I were McCain I would run an ad using quotes from the link below:

Were there any records kept of the meetings? Any kind of recordings made during the meetings? Who are the “Iraqi leaders”(other than Zebari) that were a part of the “discussions” with Obama? If it comes down to just Zebari’s word against Obama’s then nothing will come of it.
