As I’m on the road this week and next (and thus, posting may also be a bit lighter here than usual, but we’ll see), I took the opportunity this week to re-purpose a recent interview for my show today on Pacifica Radio’s KPFK in Los Angeles.
The interview is with Ken Morris and Jeanne “AK Muckraker” Devon of the great Alaska blog, The Mudflats. The two progressives are co-authors with Frank Bailey, a long time Sarah Palin aide, of Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin: A Memoir of Our Tumultuous Years, as based on tens of thousands of previously undisclosed emails between Bailey and the now-infamous former governor of Alaska.
Morris and Devon discuss their experience and secret process in coming together with the conservative Bailey to write the book, how the inside information from Palin’s private emails colored their perspective on her, and whether they think she is still inclined to jump into the 2012 Presidential race. I think it’s a fascinating and fun conversation, so I hope you’ll enjoy it here if you missed it when it originally ran live while I was recently guest-hosting the Mike Malloy Show a week or two ago.

When electronic voting for the registered non-voter by hack becomes the priority, I’ll be back…

“Blind allegiance to Sarah Palin” sounds like a diagnosis made by a psychotherapist during a session.
Glad some Brad bloggers are doing some books!
Thanx Brad!
That’s odd. Not 1 utterance of the U.S. election transparency issues you’ve been talking about since you started you website. Has no one in distant countries been kind enough to tell the former President about the lack of transparency of U.S. elections? No 3rd World Developing Nation Head could bring Mr. Bill up to speed on the need to return to paper ballot trails to evidence who people vote for? Props to the former Prez for keeping a good thing going. In this case, a way of stealing elections that came as a direct result of the Bush vs Gore election re-count… AND IT WOULDN’T BE ALLOWED TO STAND REGARDLESS OF THE FLORIDA VOTER’S INTENT.
As you know, most Americans cast their vote on electronic computer voting machines that DO NOT produce a paper ballots. Whether votes are flipped at voting and or at tabulation by a remote computer using a program that eats itself, there is no way to evidence which candidate actually won or ever have a meaningful recount using these machines. So now the Secretary of State or an election official depending on the election must be trusted to give you the accurate results of an election contest based on their opinion of what they know to be true. Faith based voting at it’s finest.
Neither party dedicated to serving the criminal special interests of their super wealthy corporate donors have talked on record. That is about the easiest way of putting their candidate into place ever devised.
NICE and keep up the good work!
