Only thing that I said with out facts is the oil thing. Sorry it came from a new clip as a quote of hers. If they were misquoting her then that's not my fault.
The fact remains she has admitted to the firing deal coming from her office and she is hardcore on the religious and wanted to push the intelligent design crap in schools.
"Gov. Sarah Palin on Wednesday revealed an audio recording that shows an aide pressuring the Public Safety Department to fire a state trooper embroiled in a custody battle with her sister.
Palin, who has previously said her administration didn’t exert pressure to get rid of trooper Mike Wooten, also disclosed that members of her staff had made about two dozen contacts with public safety officials about the trooper."
Two dozen is 24 calls, in case some haven't passed math yet. That's not a opps my staff called by mistake., silly me.. That is straight up involvement by her office trying to get a State Trooper fired because he was divorcing her sister and in a custody battle.
Then on top of that she fires the guy who refused to fire the State Trooper.
From what I can dig up, looks like the Trooper threatened the life of Palins father, tasered her nephew and abused her sister.
The guy is still working. And 2 Commissioners later, he's
still working.
If anybody did that to somebody in my family.... well, suffice to say I'd be less than charmed.
I'd say Palin has shown great restraint. She's also the one that revealed the existence of the tape and provided it to the state legislature and she suspended the guy who made the call to the commissioner.
Further, the commissioner's audit on his department came up lacking, she decided he was not operating the department to the standards she required, and offered him a transfer to another position. He refused it.
You may now resume your hysterical wailing.
