Sarah Palin appears to be organizing another run at national office. If she were to pull together a campaign team with long term memory and conscience, one could imagine her revisiting her popular catch phrase with a twist.
July 15, 2010 UPDATE: turns out the Bush administration knew and did not oppose negotiations between BP, Britain, and Libya to release the Lockerbie terrorist. Nice.
"BP begins drilling in Libyan waters this month as part of a $900 million deal secured in 2007. Observers of the 2007 deal note that it came as convicted Pan Am Flight 103 bomber Abdelbaset al-Megrahi was added to a prisoner-transfer agreement between London and Tripoli."http://www.upi.com/Science_News/Resource-Wars/2010/07/14/BP-Lockerbie-bomber-probe-ordered/UPI-58491279110525/
"The exploration deal for oil and gas, potentially worth up to £15 billion, was announced in May 2007. Six months later the agreement was still waiting to be ratified."
"Within six weeks of the government climbdown, Libya had ratified the BP deal. The prisoner transfer agreement was finalised in May this year, leading to Libya formally applying for Megrahi to be transferred to its custody."http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/politics/article6814939.ece
