Remember, this is the milieu that Sarah Palin moved in. A sense of entitlement to the better things in life through friends and contributors and those who want things from you if you're elected. Note her charging the state for per diem when at home, taking her kids at state expense on trips, using her office unethically to settle a grudge against someone who wouldn't knuckle under and someone who was a family member but got divorced.

Hmmm. Can Sarah pardon Ted Stevens, or does Bush have to do it? Based on her statement, she already thrown Ted Stevens under the bus because she was elected to clean up Alaska. Hey, maybe she can claim credit for his conviction in her next reincarnation.

I believe corruption should be punished on both sides. The problem is; democrats get away with it, that guy from the south with $100, ooo in his freezer comes to mind. He's still in congress! What's that about? Corruption and the double standard are threats to our country.
