5. I read somewhere that the report is 300 pgs long! THAT takes a while to read
even if you don't count discussion time!

6. It's only 1:00 here.
They've been in session since 9:00 a.m. this morning, and the last report is that they were only about 20 pages into it.

Patience, Grasshopper.

13. No wonder Palin put out her own 'investigative report'
They will muddy the waters with their own report clearing themselves. "See, we were found innocent."

25. hahahaha @ 1:35 update
1:35 p.m. Still nothing ... We haven't even seen the legislators pop out for another bathroom break.

Reporters are sitting along the hallway & and filling a nearby conference room, eating sandwiches and staring at laptops. Palin spokesman Bill McAllister is talking to a BBC reporter, while local bloggers have returned expecting the closed-door meeting would have ended by now.

A guy in a chair across from me, with a wireless microphone sitting on his chest, has fallen asleep.

29. Their base will forever more believe her version of the story`
because they saw it in a headline. When the actual truth of the report comes out, they'll totally ignore it and hold on to the first.

12. You might never see it
The Legislative Council must affirmatively vote to make it public. Not only have they not finished reading the thing, they haven't even discussed it yet.

Also, the Council has a majority of Republicans on it and the RNC has been playing hardball to insure it is never allowed to see the light of day.

Don't put any hopes into ever seeing it. The vast majority of Republicans are scurrilous and would aid in a cover up, especially since such a cover up would be entireluy legal and within their rights.

We are dependent upon Republicans being ethical. I hold out no such hope for ever seeing the report.

24. Someone on MSNBC said the Repukes are trying to
stall until as late as possible in the day to bury it. Obviously, not expecting good news.

That's okay though. There are always the Sunday news shows.

27. Here's the latest update from the Daily News blog
1:35 p.m. Still nothing ... We haven't even seen the legislators pop out for another bathroom break.

Reporters are sitting along the hallway & and filling a nearby conference room, eating sandwiches and staring at laptops. Palin spokesman Bill McAllister is talking to a BBC reporter, while local bloggers have returned expecting the closed-door meeting would have ended by now.

A guy in a chair across from me, with a wireless microphone sitting on his chest, has fallen asleep.
