The bi-partisan Legislative Council reports that Alaskan Govenor Palin abused power when trying to fire her ex brother-in-law as an Alaskan State Trooper. The report finds that she crossed a state ethics law when she did not act to stop the efforts to remove Trooper Wooten from his job. The report also states that the family threat allegations were a cover up on the actual motivation: to get Trooper Wooten fired. While Govenor Palin did not testify, her husband did, but his conduct is not reviewed, since he is not a state employee.

Palin and McCain will continue on determined to distract voters in these last days from the real and pressing issues. Troopergate is only more evidence of Palins governing and leadership style corrupt and self serving. What about how she is inciting violence at her “rallies”?
the same group of people who elected george bush to a second term will continue supporting Palin regardless of the probe. She’s invincible to them. this is a culture war and the most ridiculous aspect is that her supporters are voting against their own self interest. Palin is a joke: she was a joke before troopergate and she’s still a joke.
