Oh, So Sarah WAS To Blame After All?
By Cernig
A day after the McCain-Palin campaign released their own version of the Troopergate report - pre-emptively exonerating Sarah and putting all the blame on Todd instead...
...the real thing gets released and says:
A legislative committee investigating Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has found she unlawfully abused her authority in firing the state's public safety commissioner. The investigative report concludes that a family grudge wasn't the sole reason for firing Public Safety Commissioner Walter Monegan but says it likely was a contributing factor.
The Republican vice presidential nominee has been accused of firing a commissioner to settle a family dispute. Palin supporters have called the investigation politically motivated.
Monegan says he was dismissed as retribution for resisting pressure to fire a state trooper involved in a bitter divorce with the governor's sister. Palin says Monegan was fired as part of a legitimate budget dispute.
I am so surprised.

You could knock me over with a feather, you could.

Be sure to read the last sentence where Trooper Wooten admits he is a Plalin fan.
It was some UNION that filed this stupid complaint just so they could try to dig dirt on her. She committed NO crime and was just doing her job.
END OF STORY -- nothing here to see folks...!!
