Palin: The probe she prefers

Posted: Tuesday, September 23, 2008 9:15 AM by Mark Murray

This is quite a lead from the AP. "Less than a week after balking at the Alaska Legislature's investigation into her alleged abuse of power, Gov. Sarah Palin on Monday indicated she will cooperate with a separate probe run by people she can fire. An attorney for the GOP vice presidential nominee met with an investigator for the state Personnel Board to discuss sharing documents and schedule witness interviews, McCain spokeswoman Meg Stapleton said. Neither she nor McCain spokesman Ed O'Callaghan had further details about the meeting and said they did not know if the governor or her husband would be interviewed."

Palin is so needed on the trail that they don't have her raising money anymore?

I think Palin is right considering that there is nothing to investigate.  This is just the left wing grasping at straws.
rhj
She's a bad joke.
Teehee...I think Paulson should agree to oversight as long as he get to pick who they are.  
IS this a joke?
McCain/Palin scream about lies from the Obama ticket but yet Mc/Palin can not even be honest with the American people BEFORE election day.   What does that tell folks about how they will run the country??

The M/P team are NOT getting my vote!!
I've never seen anyone as comfortable as Palin seems to be in flat-out lying. On top of repeating the same "I stopped that bridge" crap many times after it was debunked, ABC just obtained a travel authorization document that contradicts Palin's latest version of why she fired Monegan, i.e., for making an "unauthorized" lobbying trip to D.C.  She's comfortable lying, but apparently not very good at it. Although with the help of all the Bushies now  around her, there's still time to learn.
I can imagine the people of Alaska are very
embarressed by this phony.
I know the voters of our country are.
The Mccain/palin ticket is a disgrace.
ENOUGH!!
You got to be kidding me. Are there people so blind out there that would actualy vote for a ticket with this woman on it?

She'd make Bush Jr. look like an angel if she ever get her hands on a powerful seat in the highest office.
She'll agree to be investigated by people she appoints?  These people really think we're a bunch of fools.
Total nonsense.  I am getting so sick and tired of Sarah Palin, avoiding this investigation, lying about her record, avoiding interviews, and reading speaches she doesnt write.
