Hilzoy has a useful and devastating post on the Alaska legislature’s finding that governor Palin abused her power to go after and ruin a former family member against whom she had a grudge: The Palins really seem to have had it in for Wooten. This was
obvious before -- most people don’t try to get someone fired just for
kicks -- but reading all the details makes it really clear. The report
lists nine people whom Todd Palin contacted about Wooten; two say that
he had "numerous conversations" and "10-20x", respectively, and the
report lists nine contacts with the other seven. Sarah Palin contacted
Monegan three times and another person twice; and her Chief of Staff,
Commissioner of Administration, Attorney General, and Director of
Boards and Commissions all contacted people about Wooten.
That’s a whole lot of contacts. Enough to make this claim by Governor Palin seem not just false, but absurd:

All right, so she’s never actually been here, but it transpires that The Palinator is a HUGE fan of Ireland’s favorite instrumentalist. Watch this:

Robust thanks to reader AS for directing my attention to Mudflats today, where the headline is “Troopergate Witness Flips Like a Pancake.” Recall that McCain-Palin has worked mightily to shut down the Alaska legislature’s “Troopergate” investigation de facto by convincing witnesses (including the Palins themselves) not to co-operate, and Palin even opened an alternative “investigation” under a three-person panel of her own appointees. But now ... more
troopergate update:
Hard evidence contradicting sworn testimony has a certain effect on people. Murlene Wilkes, faced with this situation, decided to change her testimony according to a report in The Public Record . Now, with the little extra incentive of avoiding perjury charges, she has admitted that she was asked to deny the claim - at the direct request of Sarah and Todd Palin.

This is a goldmine of information about Pennsylvania Open Records laws both at state AND municipal level. If this is to be a government of the people, by the people and for the people, then “we, the people” or, at least, some of us who are fascinated by the workings of our government can follow the money and the activities of our elected and appointed officials.

It seems that Froma Harrop of Creator’s Syndicate news service was on vacation from just about five days before the general election until today and she’s just catching up on all the Palin hatin’ she must have missed. Unfortunately for Harrop, she still hasn’t caught up with the truth yet because her latest is filled with every lie about Governor Palin she could jam into one column, quite despite that for weeks her digs have been proven lies. In hers headlined, "Palin sho... more
