Sarah Palin and David Letterman
Greta VanSustern on Fox News showed the tape of David Letterman talking about Sarah Palin. I didn’t think that it was right, and I kind of felt that Katie Couric didn’t think too much of it either. I got this email, so I thought that I would post it.
Do you think that he committed a violation of the FCC? What are your thoughts on this? ------Trickyvikki

Subject: On Team Sarah: Not funny, David!
A message to all members of Team Sarah
Such hypocrites!
Two nights ago, David Letterman, in interviewing Katie Couric, described Gov. Palin as “the first vice presidential candidate that I found myself being aroused about.”
It is ghastly that this kind of discourteous, indecent talk should pass for conversational fodder — even on late night TV.
This violates CBS’s own “Program Practices” specifically states that: “The Program Practices editors review material for excessive or gratuitous violence, sexuality, nudity and inappropriate language. They ensure that character portrayals are sensitive to current ethnic, religious, sexual and other significant social concerns.” http://www.cbspressexpress.com/div.php/cbs_network/page/program_practices
A violation? What do *you* think?
Well, don’t just think it! Make your voice heard.
Email the Federal Communications Commission!
Email fccinfo@fcc.gov, tell them your name, where you are from, and EXACTLY how you feel about Letterman taking indecent liberties with a dignified lady, mom, and governor on his show!

My response to an article that I found last night
I found this article while surfing last night, and here is my response to it. The writer forgot to tell everyone that Jim Martin is outspending on ads by about three to one.
During the election, he ran more ads than Saxby Chambliss, and they were pretty nasty. He is running one now that probably took Saxby Chambliss out of context by saying he didn’t know what a recession was. He just runs that one sentence twice in his nasty ad.
He has been running ads about the bailout, which I feel he is being a hypocrite about. Barack Obama supported the bailout, as did John McCain. The reason that I call him a hypocrite, is because he is now running ads saying he backs Barack Obama completely, but yet he ran ads against Sen. Saxby Chambliss running him down for voting for the bailout when Obama supported it.
Although I hate what happened to his daughter, Saxby Chambliss isn’t running the ad. It is a 527 group doing it.
Obama is even running radio ads for Martin. So there is nastiness on both sides. ——Vickie

Freedom’s Watch attacks Democratic Senate candidate whose daughter was kidnapped as being soft on crime. By Amanda Terkel at 6:40 pm Freedom’s Watch attacks Democratic Senate candidate whose daughter was kidnapped as being soft on crime.» Yesterday, the struggling Freedom’s Watch released an attack ad against Georgia’s Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Jim Martin, saying that he “failed to look out for Georgia’s families.” “First he actually helped block stiffer penalties for drunk drivers,” warns the voice in the ad, which echoes previous GOP ads.

From top rival to top aide: The Clinton-Obama detente

I have heard some speculation about why Obama would want Hillary Clinton out of the Senate. The speculation was she was block his health-care plans, and he wanted her out of the way.
Now, Obama will be her boss. I wonder who will boss who?-------Trickyvikki

From top rival to top aide: The Clinton-Obama detente
By Elisabeth Bumiller
New York Times
Posted: 11/22/2008 05:50:21 PM PST
WASHINGTON — The thaw in the resentful relationship between the most powerful woman in the Democratic party and her younger male rival began at the party's convention this summer, when Sen. Hillary Clinton gave such a passionate speech supporting Sen. Barack Obama that his top aides leapt out of their chairs backstage to give her a standing ovation as she swept past.
Strategic move
Obama, who was in the first steps of what would become a strategic courtship, called afterward to thank her. By then, close aides to Clinton said, she had come to respect the campaign Obama had run against her. At the least, she knew he understood like no one else the brutal strains of their epic primary battle.
By Thursday, when Obama reassured Clinton that as secretary of state she would have direct access to him and could select her own staff, the wooing was complete.
"She feels like she's been treated very well in the way she's been asked," said a close associate of Clinton, who like others asked for anonymity because the nomination won't be formally announced until after Thanksgiving.
Few are predicting this new relationship born of mutual respect and self-interest will grow into a tight bond between the new president and the woman who will be the public face of his foreign policy, though some say it is not impossible. They argue that a close friendship between the two powerful officials is useful but not essential, and isn't a predictor of the success of the nation's top diplomat.
Intellectual bond
While James Baker was extraordinarily close to President George H.W. Bush and is widely considered one of the most successful recent secretaries of state, Dean Acheson was not a friend of President Harry Truman, and Henry Kissinger did not particularly like President Richard Nixon.
"Two of the nation's greatest secretaries of state in the modern period, Dean Acheson and Henry Kissinger, were not personally close but were intellectually bonded to their presidents," said Walter Isaacson, the author of a biography of Kissinger and the co-author, with Evan Thomas, of "The Wise Men," a book about America's postwar foreign policy establishment. "I think that Obama and Clinton could form a perfect partnership based on respect for each other's view of the world."
In the Obama-Clinton relationship, advisers say, the relatively smooth nature of their talks about the secretary of state job indicate that both, for now, have a working chemistry.
U.S. Kills Al-Qaeda Suspect

U.S. Kills Al-Qaeda Suspect
Strike in Pakistan Claims Fugitive Tied to '06 Airline Bomb Plot
By Candace Rondeaux
Washington Post Foreign Service
Sunday, November 23, 2008; Page A14
KABUL, Afghanistan, Nov. 22 -- A suspected al-Qaeda operative linked to a 2006 plot to blow up British airliners was killed Saturday in a suspected U.S. missile strike in northwestern Pakistan, according to two Pakistani intelligence officials. At least four other extremist fighters were also killed.
The officials said the al-Qaeda suspect was Rashid Rauf, a man who held dual Pakistani and British citizenship. The attack came from an unmanned U.S. Predator aircraft, which fired at least two Hellfire missiles at a suspected Taliban compound in the village of Ali Khel in the restive tribal area of North Waziristan, said the officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to speak publicly about missile strikes.
The dead also included at least three foreign fighters, the officials said.
Rauf, a former resident of the British city of Birmingham, was suspected to be the ringleader in an alleged al-Qaeda plot to blow up commercial jetliners flying from Britain to the United States. He was arrested by Pakistani authorities in Bahawalpur in August 2006 after British officials learned of the alleged terrorist operation, which authorities said included a plan to smuggle liquid explosives and camera flash detonators on board at least 10 airplanes. The plot led to widespread restrictions on items travelers could carry onto planes.
In London, a Foreign Office spokesman said British officials were investigating reports that Rauf had been killed but could not confirm his death.
Before his arrest, Rauf's alleged ties to the Pakistani terrorist group Jaish-i-Muhammad stirred strong suspicions among intelligence experts that he also might have had connections with rogue elements in Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence Directorate, also known as the ISI. Jaish-i-Muhammad, banned in Pakistan, has played a leading role in an ISI-supported proxy war with India over the disputed northern territory of Kashmir. The group is widely suspected to be behind the abduction and killing of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl in 2002.
Rauf's association with the group is thought to have begun around the time he married a close relative of the group's founder, Maulana Masood Azhar.
A Pakistani court dropped terrorism charges against Rauf in late 2006. Pakistani authorities, nonetheless, offered to extradite him to Britain in connection with the airliner plot. But suspicions about his connections to Pakistani intelligence agencies deepened after he escaped from custody last December. Pakistani security officials said Rauf slipped out of his handcuffs after police allowed him to stop at a mosque in the capital, Islamabad.
Rauf's attorney at the time, Hashmat Habib, said Rauf was subsequently taken into ISI custody. Until Saturday's strike in North Waziristan, Rauf's whereabouts were not publicly known.
Habib, reached at his offices in Pakistan, said he was aware of the reports but could not confirm whether Rauf had been killed.
The U.S. military has stepped up a campaign this year targeting al-Qaeda and Taliban havens along Pakistan's mountainous border with Afghanistan. Military officials say the surge in activity has had a debilitating effect on militant operations in the region.
But the attacks have drawn criticism from Pakistan's top military officer, Gen. Ashfaq Kiyani. Kiyani, who formerly led the ISI, and other top Pakistani officials have said collateral damage and civilian deaths from the missile strikes could increase anti-American sentiment in Pakistan, a key ally in the U.S.-led war against Islamist insurgents in Afghanistan.
Special correspondent Shaiq Hussain in Islamabad, Pakistan, contributed to this report.

Message from The National Republican Trust PAC
From Scott Wheeler
Dear Supporter:D-Day has begun.
With your help and the help of almost 50,000 other Americans, we at the National Republican Trust PAC — also known as GOPtrust.com — have begun our TV assault in Georgia against Barack Obama and the left-wing Democrats who want total control over Congress.
Our new TV ad has begun to run across Georgia exposing Obama’s plans.
As you know, Republican Senator Saxby Chambliss is fighting to keep his Georgia seat in GOP hands.
It is critical he does so. Chambliss will be the key Senate vote in stopping Obama’s radical agenda.
But Sen. Chambliss faces an incredibly stiff challenge from his opponent Jim Martin.
Just last week Obama, Chuck Schumer and Washington Democrats poured almost $1 million into the state to defeat him.
They are bussing in thousands of “organizers” to snatch this election from the GOP.
This is why our campaign is so vitally important.
Fox News analyst Dick Morris says this election is vitally important to all of us across the country.
Morris says if Obama wins the Georgia seat, he will ram through Congress a radical agenda on taxes, guns, abortion — he can even shut down talk radio!
Dick Morris says we at the National Republican Trust PAC “are leading the fight to save Chambliss and keep Obama from getting a filibuster-proof Senate.”
Dick says this won’t be easy for Chambliss because the Obama camp has more money and they are experts at voter turn-out — the key to winning this race.
But Dick says we can still defeat Martin and Obama.
We need your help today to do it!
Please donate to our cause by Going Here Now.
See our new TV ad exposing Obama and Martin — Go Here Now.
Thank you.
Scott Wheeler
Executive Director
P.S. We now have about one week before the December 2nd run-off election. We can leave nothing to chance. We need to raise millions to stop Obama. Please help us today by calling our Donor Hotline at 1-866-957-1467 or Go Here Now.
