Palin doesn't send out bills for rape kits. Hospitals do. If the insurance doesn't pay for the rape kit then the woman is responsible for the bill in more states than just Alaska. There is no free lunch. Someone has to pay. Hospitals don't just eat the cost.

What proof do you have that Palin ever made that statement? It sounds like a lie to me. Unlike her detractors,Palin doesn't use coarse language. She says "Heck" not "Hell". It is her Obama cult following detractors that use the "s", "c" and "b" words as well as the "d-t" words.

Members present at the meeting including the librarian have said that Palin asked a hypothetical question. "What would you do if I asked you to ban a book"? The librarian's response that she would refuse satisfied Palin's curiosity. This is a case of true true but unrelated. Yes Palin asked the librarian this question. (No list of books to be banned was ever submitted). And yes Palin had a later conflict with the same librarian that resulted in Palin firing her (then retracting it).

oops. Elton refused to reconvene Legislative council (not Judicial) when requested by a majority of members of the Council. He stonewalls until the Speaker of the House intervenes 9 days later. By then Judiciary Committee has met and approved the possibly tainted subpoena list. As I said before partisan hatchet job. As I said before both French and Elton commandeered the probe for their own partisan objectives. Compromised its objectivity. Both work for the Obama campaign.

It took an order by the Speaker of the House to finally get Senator Elton to reconvene the Legislative Council. The Alaska Attorney General rejects the validity of the subpoena list approved by the Judicial Committee and instructs state employees that the State Senate or Legislature must vote to compel testimony. Probe information was incomplete and possibly biased because only willing employees cooperated.

However she was compassionate enough to offer Monegan a position in another department instead of firing him. He quit rather than be transferred. So how is that a scandal?

Elton refused to reconvene Judicial Council until after the Judicial Committee chaired by French voted 3-2 to approve the subpoena list vetted and edited by French before the meeting. The independent investigator Branchflower wasn't exactly independent. He was told by French what public statements to make. He submitted the subpoena list to French before bringing it to the Judiciary Committe. Rep. Guttenberg (D) questioned both Branchflower and French about irregularities on the subpoena list.

I would have to agree with you that if Sen Ted Stevens and Palin is the best Alaska can do the whole state must be a joke, they should have remained a territory they are not even close to being ready for statehood. If it is not the most politically corrupt state in the union it has to be close. It appears that Alaskans are unable to clean corruption and it starts in the Govenors office and goes down for sure.

They did.

I personally think 5 days suspension inadequate disciplinary action for this dirty cop's multiple infractions. So I am not impressed with the performance of the Alaska Public Safety Department under Monegan. |
