SHOCKING: Palin Emails Show Phrases Like "Holy Flippin' Crap"

The media is having another Al Capone’s vault moment.

Eager members of the MSM and progressive bloggers have been poring over 24,000 emails from Palin’s time as governor and still, the most shocking thing remains the media’s obsession with a woman they call “irrelevant.”

Irrelevant, really? Nothing says “power” to me than knowing that a bunch of die hard Palin-haters are giving up one of their first summer weekends to learn that Palin thought the media was biased.

Governor, I praise the Lord for you. You / your team are part of an amazing plan that we can’t even imagine. Thanks so much for supporting us,

This is a verse that I received shortly after I agreed to work for you. I have saved it for this day :)

Psalm 28:7 (NIV)

The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to Him in song.

EARMITES ARE SAYING

Sent: 14 January 2007 7:32am

To: Sarah Palin; Michael A Tibbles; tibbles@alaska.net; Ivy Frye; Frye; Ivy J (GOV); Meghan N Stapleton

Subject: Ralston’s replacement

In the Ear: “On a less satisfying note, can it possibly be true that Joe Ralston, the other board member who lost his seat last week, learned he was out by reading it in the newspaper? It seems unlikely, but earmites are saying the new regime is really bad at communicating plans to those affected.”

oops… we need to be more careful in how these folks are informed. I thought Ralston was called.

Lets make sure before any replacements that there’s no annoucement until we make every effort to inform the affected party.

Also, did Greg Wilkenson really transfer to HESS? Who will be DPS spokesman?
