Actually, they'll say she's being picked on for partisan motives, completely ignore that the ruling was unanimous and people from both party's agreed. Then they'll say the panel wasn't legitimate, morons will believe all of that, and nothing will change with die hard right wing kooks.

I'm one of those right wing kooks who knows a con job when I see one. If all of the facts presented are totally true; guilty as charged, so what? Financial gain? No. Personal gain? No. Hmmm. Anyone lose any money? Nada.

None of this raises to the level that the LIBS are guilty of. She did not break any laws. This is just a shame on you. Wow! and this is all the libs can find.
Oh, I'm so embarrassed to admit I like her.
Am I voting for McCain/Palin Nope. Not voting at all. Will not vote again until there is a true conservative. I did not like Palin's answers at the debate. I am a thinking person. Both parties need destroyed. We need an amendment to the Constitution to outlaw parties. As long as we have parties we'll continue to get these liberal weirdos claiming either to not be liberal or claiming to be conservative.-

Can you please explain what you have against a liberal?

Don't you like free and constructive thinking?
As for Palin, well yes, that "power abuse" in Alaska is a small matter. It's wrong, but....... I'm sure a lot (not all) of people (on BOTH sides) may do the same once and a while.
However, if you (like her) always pretend that you are the best, with no faults, a pure Christian, criticizing the others (sometimes without foundation) then you should yourself be blameless.-

Klarissa has a "minor" obsession with Obama. Whether she gets paid to spend as much time as she does digging up dirt on him (while not ever trying to convince us of what McCain CAN offer us, anyone's guess but she does seem to have a very unhealthy preoccupation with the guy. I have a feeling the Secret Service will need to keep an eye on her. ;-P

From what I read the report by the legislative panel was not unanimous and members urged caution in their interpretation that Ms Palin may have violated ethics law and that it was an opinion only and that no legal action was recommended. Would it be fair to conclude that this is an interpretation by left wing kooks? And of course anyone who does not agree with you is a moron, how incite full. Some would suggest that the fact that the incompetent trooper was not fired was proof of inside influence. And what did Ms. Palin gain again? I missed that part.

the allegation is the firing of not the intended target, but the firing of someone who refused to fire that target for her:

"The inquiry looked into her dismissal of Public Safety Commissioner Walter Monegan, who said he lost his job because he resisted pressure to fire a state trooper involved in a bitter divorce with the governor's sister."

The panel agreed she did not do enough to stop her husband from following up on the trooper who was a former brother-in-law. She told him not to do it, according to his testimony. The reassignment itself was not shown to be a problem.
Reply
Sounds like Todd was angry about the threats against the family and the tasering of the child and thought the drunkenness in his cruiser would be enough to put him off the force. In my state, the trooper would have been out for tasering the child.
So it looks like Todd's emotions got the better of him and he didn't listen to the governor. But Gov. Palin didn't come on strong enough to stop him, so it's a breach of ethics for her.-

That is the question I been trying to find the answer to and there is nothing I can find about Todd being appointed to a position to carry out actions for the governor. If he did fire the trooper, he carried out an act that he did not have authority to carry out. so, since Todd didn't have the authority to fire anyone, the ruling that she did not do enough to stop Todd from firing the trooper is a misleading statement.

I've found a clarification of this question in another story.
Reply
Alaska Governor Sarah Palin abused her power by letting her husband press for the firing of a state trooper, a legislative probe found, while adding that she acted within her authority when she dismissed the state's public safety commissioner.
``Governor Palin knowingly permitted a situation to continue where impermissible pressure was placed on several subordinates in order to advance a personal agenda,'' said the state legislative investigator's report released yesterday in Anchorage. The report also said Palin's dismissal of the commissioner, Walt Monegan, was a ``proper and lawful exercise'' of her power to fire department heads for any reason.
He didn't fire the trooper but he tried to pressure someone else to do it.

The difference slate is that this is a proven fact and the accusations by Palin that Obama is palling around with terrorist is not. You see, the committee in question is sponsored by a conservative friend of Ronald Reagan with conservative businessmen and conservative activist all setting at the same table with Ayers. So what Palin is doing is accusing all those conservatives and Reagan's friend of palling around with terrorist too.
Reply
The accusation against Obama concerning his pastor flies in the face of ignorance to believe that Obama has been influenced by what a pastor believes but Palin being the recipient of a ceremony to have the witch removed from her is proven by documentation of film.
The accusation that he has advisers that had ties to Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac has been debunked by Snopes.com and others but McCain who now has Rick Davis on his campaign is a proven fact. Rich Davis' firm by the way was being paid by Freddie Mac for work they never performed until last month.-

How many of you truly read the report? It is quite evident this person should not have been an officer any more and Palins firing of Monogen was justified according to the reports. This was just a pure waste of tax payers money.
Reply
There have been to judges who have looked at this on the news last night who felt the ruling was mis represented and there were no ethical issues envolved as there was no real personal or finacial gain.
People will read into this all they want, but when you have people from the police officers own town suggesting he should have been fired long ago, it seems to me that the Palins were correct!-

--*sigh* No one disputes the legality of the firing itself. Palin broke the law when she abused her office to get the guy fired. She was right to fire him but her approach was wrong.
"There have been to judges who have looked at this on the news last night who felt the ruling was mis represented and there were no ethical issues envolved as there was no real personal or finacial gain"
--This argument perplexes me. Of course there was personal gain involved. Palin wanted the guy fired because because she claimed he threatened her family. She wanted to punish her former brother-in-law and get him to back off. That was the personal gain.

More than that...They had to move a few rallies in florida because the location that was primarily selected was too small....
Reply
But it's truly funny, how this investigation was "rushed" to get done BEFORE the election whereas the ACORN voter fraud, Freddie and Fannie Mae buyout and other investigations where Obama was involved were put on hold becausee they didn't want to risk potential voter bias because of these investigations.....LMAO !!!
I tell ya... libs and Democraps are the sleeziest, "lying-est", biggest sack of crap, hypcrits that I have ever seen!
The Democraps ALWAYS get a pass on just about EVERYTHING....
But this story isn't anything unexpected....You have investigators with allegiance to Obama trying something...anything...to get Barack elected...
She didn't abuse her power, she was basically charged for not reigning her husband in when she should have....But she didn't abuse any power, as you libs are desperately reaching for...Wooten's boss wouldn't fire this thug, so she fired Monegan....Perfectly legal....
More power to her....If Monegan wasn't going to get it done, then he needed to go....The guy tasered a 10-yr old boy, was a drunk and hunted elk illegally and threatened Palin's dad...
Sorry, but if it was YOUR parents or family at risk, you would do the same...
And I for one would want my governor to exercise any authority to rid this menace to society and get him off the streets....He was bad news...
Libs, stop being the a$$es that we all know you are.....This is NOTHING compared to the mess that Obama is in and HE'S running for president....You've got a lot of American haters out there endorsing Barack Apollo Obama and we're finding out more and more everyday that it's not longer "guilt by association" but "guilt by alliance"......
More is going to come out on this in the next few days about this "taser gate" and I will be sure to forward you the stories that show how much partisan bias was involved in this whole thing....When you have investigators, who are avid supporters of Obama, involved in this trial, how can you possibly believe this slop?
Well, at least Farrankhan, Ayers and Rev. Wright still endorses your candidate....
There's still hope....-

Wrongdoing in the ACORN case involves staffers or over-eager volunteers. It does not and never has involved Obama personally.
The troopergate affair involves wrongdoing by Palin personally.

The fact that Todd Palin was trying to go after a bad guy and she is being slapped for not doing enough to stop him probably doesn't make her look like a bad governor to most fans.
Reply
I think Palin and Obama have a lot in common. They both came in without all the facts and they're having to play catch-up. He had some months' head start, and has finally found his groove, and she's having to do a crash course. Both of them and their partners have some very strong opinions I don't agree with, and I'll have to go on the attack to retain my rights, irrespective of who wins the election.
My biggest concern is that we don't get another single party controlling the administration and both houses of congress. It doesn't work well, irrespective of party. We see how the Republicans add "God" to everything, and Obama just doesn't get the reality that countries are going to have to use tools like birth control and not just depend on wealth redistribution--especially since the U.S. is beyond broke (it was broke even with the surplus, but no one likes to point that out).-

Amen to that! Haqving only one, criminal, bought off party holding congress AND the White House for the past almost eight years has brought us to where we are now.
The so-called "two party" system is the basis for the rot we find ourselves unable to treat.
It would be great if lobbyists and corporations were forbidden to contribute ONE CENT to ANY party.
But that would leave everything to the citizens, and while we have money on the conscience of politicians, they will continue to exercise "conscience over constituents".

We need the Democrats to control the whole thing for at least one congressional term so that we can undo the changes that the Bush administration made. Then I'll be happy to see it split up because things do seem to work much better for the nation that way.

But based on your logic and reasoning, Klarissa, the world economy wouldn't be crashing as a result of actions undertaken by the neocons' latest whipping posts, Barney Frank and Christopher Dodd (since Congress was under GOP control for the previous 12 years), right? The GOP had control so unless Barney Frank and Christopher Dodd simply overpowered the Republicans (granted, we know they can *outthink* the GOP) then your arguments that they are to blame for Bush's extreme failure holds no water whatoever.

endo - Of course Carter's economic record was poor. No one argues with that. It is ancient history in our modern world of instant second to second changes in stock indexes. So What?
Reply
Contrast that to Bush's record which McCain is so adamant about continuing.
Continuing tax cuts for the ultra-rich and corporations.
Continuing pursuit of the ruinous Iraq War.
Expanding drilling and increasing our dependence on oil. Unemployment/underemployment rate up to 9.9% (in July - BEFORE the crash). Unemployment rate alone up to 6.1%. Predicted to rise to 7%
Loss of 4.4 million jobs under Bush. Under Clinton we had 22.5 million NEW jobs created
Highest inflation ever under Clinton was 3.6%; under Bush now approaching 6%.
Poverty level under Clinton dropped from 15.1% in 1993 to 11.8% when he left office. Under Bush, poverty level ROSE to 12.7%.
Complete disappearance of over 1 trillion in asset values in past week alone. Transfer or withdrawal of $8.4 trillion from accounts and retirement plans. Wiping out of numerous pension plans.
Loss of hundreds of thousands of homes.
Closure of at least 35 banks.
45% drop in dollar value since Bush took office.
Refusal to ratify the Kyoto Accords and worsening of global warming.
Why talk about Carter from 30 yrs ago? Why are you scared to compare Bush to Clinton?
Worry about what is happening around you right now and what McCain would do if he wins and continues Bush's economic policies.-

Everything was going good until the CRA foreclosure mess tripped the crash in housing prices that led to the banks and other institutions going bankrupt and many being bailed out. Credit dried up because of all of the money sucked out when the real estate prices dropped. CRA was a Democrat compassionate creation. Obama working for ACORN sued Citibank in Chicago to force them to give out more bad loans. Obama is part and parcel in this mess. ACORN lobbied Congress starting in 1990 to loosen up the guidelines for Fannie and Freddy. They were successful in doing so after Clinton was elected.

The reason this whole mess came was McCain's adviser and former senate banking chairman Phil Gramm who pushed a deregulation veto proof bill through the senate in 1999 that took all regulation off the banking institutions. It was only a matter of time after that for the collapse to happen. He collected over $1.5 million for his effort.

But the GOP took control of Congress in '94 and only lost control (of the Congress, that is) in '06. Bush has been in office for the last 8 years and yet you're saying that the Republicans were against this when they were in control of Congress but they were totally powerless to do anything about it? What stopped them. Regale us with the chronology of events starting with when the GOP took over in the early 90s (because cons seem to think Barney Frank and Chris Dodd held the GOP hostage all those years).

You really, REALLY need to read this from NEWS WEEK reporters. They went to Alaska, and looked at the court records. Palin and her family accused the trooper of a lot of things, WITH ABSOLUTELY NO EVIDENCE THAT HE HAD DONE ANYTHING! Before Palin became governor, she was warned by a judge that if she and her family didn't stop bad mouthing the trooper to the children, the children would be moved away from there, & full custody would be given to the father. The law in Alaska recognizes that turning children against a parent is CHILD ABUSE. I'm going to say it again. She was told to knock it off three years before she became governor! The trooper was never charged with anything. He was found guilty of nothing. A court investigator found that the family was alienating the children from the father. They found no evidence that the accusations against the trooper was true. The mother apparently didn't want him to have custody rights at all. AGAIN! The trooper was found guilty of NOTHING! He was charged with NOTHING.

This isn't just some spurious accusation. A judge found her actions to be alarming and possibly illegal. Pitting children against their own Father? Apparently Gov. Palin is only "pro-family" when the family member in question is on her good side.
This article is over a month old, yet it wasn't a particularly widely-reported news story. I get the feeling Gov. Palin has become "Teflon Sarah" at this point. Not much is going to stick to her. She's anti-abortion, and that's all that's important to the masses who show up at her rallies.-

Amazing how the lie-du-jour New Republicans lurch from this to that lie. After working so hard to get control of the entire government, they now claim that control of the government is a bad thing. Funny, it worked well under FDR to bring an end to the great depression that the Republicans brought on. It worked to win WWII. Government gridlock with the Roadblock Republicans in the Senate is a great deal of what's wrong right now.
The New Republicans claim that government can't do anything right, yet they desperately want control of the government, so much so they will tell any lie and use any smear to get their hands on the reins of power. And as soon as they are in control, they drive the ship of state straight onto the rocks.
Bring back the real fiscal conservative Republicans I used to be a part of. Let this economic disaster be the end of the deficit doubling New Republicans and their belief in trickle down Reaganomic .-

To answer your rhetorical question. I've heard them both speak. One uses complete sentences, the other has a degree from Yale. So my evaluation is more empirical and less theoretical.

If you knew what a Magna C u m Luade at Harvard Law was you might be impressed but since that was way out of your reach I can understand why you wouldn't be impressed.
"Point is, common sense, character, and judgement...Stuff that cannot be taught at a hoity-toity academic institution, is something Barack Apollo Obama is lacking..."
Here's where you are so far off it's pathetic. Obama has the good sense to not get in the gutter with the Republican campaign and refrain from placing lies in their ads as the McCain campaign has been doing.
"I know a lot of people that went to Ivy league schools but are dumber than a box of rocks....doesn't mean anything to me..."
Yeah, one is in the White House as a lame duck. Another that went to a big Academy is running for prez.
"Maybe he wrote a thesis on inflating tires up at Harvard.....Seems to be his passion...."
Another attempt to poke fun at Obama by the McCain group that backfired. You see, the DOT put out a pamphlet giving just that information and the benefits from it. Of course elitist Republicans like McCain would not even know where the air goes in the tires much less how to use a tire gauge. -

It amazes me how pathetic the left wing is. They totally skew the media and try to smear this woman all the while IGNORING Obama's associations with total loons! I was 8 years old when John Kennedy was assasinated but I think that when I was the age Obama was when he decided to run for the senate I would have remembered who LEE HARVEY OSWALD WAS and what he had done to our country. I think those of you living the delusion whould wake up and if you want to live in a socialist country go to one and leave ours to those of us who still believe in our Constitution not the distorted veiw the media tries to shove down our throats!

One thing we can agree on is that people like you (who believe that you alone are so special and your way of life is the only way) are DEFINITELY in need of help. The notion that cons can render the US FUBAR and then should actually be allowed anywhere NEAR the White House again is delusional in the extreme.

Poor mesodude can't read even a hatchet job correctly. NO criminal activity.

Even the worst the report says "concluded that the Governor abused her power by conducting a campaign to have her former brother-in-law Mike Wooten fired as a state trooper, or by failing to prevent her husband Todd from doing so. "
The main problem is that almost all of that happened before she became Governor.
What would you do if someone threatened to kill your father and tasered your nephew to show him what it felt like. This among other findings by the state troopers.-

Poor Endo cannot follow a story properly. There were two rulings in this case.
#1 the one right wing cons want to point is the ruling that she did not break the law in the reassignment of Monegan's was within the law and within her rights as governor but her actions .
#2 was a little different. Sarah Palin, John McCain’s running mate, unlawfully abused her power as Alaska’s governor by trying to have her former brother-in-law fired as a state trooper, according to an ethics investigation released last night.
“Governor Palin knowingly permitted a situation to continue where impermissible pressure was placed on several subordinates in order to advance a personal agenda, to wit: To get Trooper Michael Wooten fired,"
Both of these happen WHILE she was governor. ROFLMAO
"What would you do if someone threatened to kill your father and tasered your nephew to show him what it felt like. This among other findings by the state troopers."
I'd press charges against him. If found guilty, remove him from office. Problem with her actions is her feeling that she is all powerful and above the law which she knows nothing about. Not ready for the high office of VP.

The "bipartisan" witch hunt found something against her. What a surprise. Once she was nominated for VP that was the inevitable result. The Democrats made sure of that. Notice that it was only a possible contributing factor th the firing.

Endo ... I notice that while you so often ridicule others for not being 'Christian-Enough' ... by whatever measure you use ... you REGULARLY excuse ANY type of Malfeasance ... Lying .... Death .... Destruction .... Intimidation ..... and Incompetence .... if these behaviors are exhibited by the POLITICAL IDEOLOGY you agree with.

And what is the corner-stone of that Ideology?
Waging Indiscriminate War.
Lying to Initiate War.
Welfare for the Wealthy.
Short-Changing our troops.
Huge Paychecks for BlackWater Mercenaries.
Excuses and Unaccountability for Polluters.
Excuses and Unaccountability for malfeasance by Insurance Companies
Excuses for this administration's Perversion of Justice.
and best of all ... ... ...
the Ideology of fighting against Children getting Health-Care.
Well ... that certainly helps me understand how you measure OTHER'S Christianity.
Thanks!-

Amnesia I think. I keep telling you that you should stop saying the lie that you are a Christian and a Conservative. Then you try to put words in my mouth that I never said. You are accusing me of doing what you do as a "Christian Conservative".
Poor Goppy has a memory problem. -

Explain to me how it was the Democrats that found this when she was already under investigation before McCain picked her as his running mate. It was the Democrats who were on an investigating committee consisting of 10 cons and 4 dems that found her guilty and the cons had nothing to do with it. Well, that does falls in line with your blaming the Democrats for every else.
