The husband of 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate Gov. Sarah Palin has been found guilty of contempt by the Alaskan Senate.

Last summer, Todd Palin and others had refused to comply with subpoenas issued by Alaska lawmakers seeking testimony in the "Troopergate" investigation launched in July, triggered by the allegedly forced resignation of a state official.

The official, Walt Monegan, had been reluctant to fire an Alaska state trooper who was Gov. Palin's brother-in-law, embroiled in a bitter custody battle with Palin's sister.

1. Put that in your zamboni and smoke it, todd.

And your darling little wolf-murdering, endangered-species exterminating, Neiman Marcus stealth-hog with her fancy-ass designer glasses, too. AND your seven-year-old daughter who was seen and photographed carrying around her very own full-sized Louis Vuitton handbag.

My husband worried, last fall, about what might happen if, Thank-Heaven-It-DIDN'T, mcsame/palin had won. And something had happened to mcsame, and palin would have to take over. My husband said he expected todd palin would be the de facto President of the United States.

4. Palin said that she was "gonna get in there"

...and help rewrite policy (Senate) Yeah, Sarah, I am sure that the senators would have just stepped aside and let you have a go at it...LOL!!

I told my wife that Sarah Palin would act like POTUS Beta 1.0, IF she became VP.

5. Pa-leez...I can't even stand to think about it anymore.

That thought put chills down my spine.

2. So what does a state senate guilty of contempt charge mean?

Tsk...tsk...naughty, naughty??

7. Apparently, they can only say "naughty, naughty,"

because these folks were advised by Sarah's pet attorney general, Talis Colberg, that it was their choice whether they obeyed the subpoenas or not. IMO, he's the one that should be on the hook now -- removed from office and disbarred.

3. So it should now be proper . . .

To address the First Dude of Alaska as "the contemptible Mr. Palin," right?

6. Republicons have no respect for America or our laws

Republicons think they are 'elite' and 'special.'

Ptoooey.

8. Big deal. Todd Palin is held in contempt by everyone!

He married that shit-headed shrew...

9. Well, duh! He lives in the Free Replublic of Alaska, so, who cares what a US court says.

He's not american: He's Alaskan.

10. It was the Alaska state senate who censured him.

He's not Alaskan, he's a Palin.
