Palin caught in a lie

[007]

No one would have made ONE call, much less two dozen calls without her instructions.....

but you already know they don't caqre about corruption... look at what they elected twice.

And you can prove THAT of course... or are you just joining in this gas attack with more hyperbole just for the fun of it?

 

[dilloduck]

Yet the Republicans are supposedly the party of attacks and hatred....

The DEM wolves shed their sheep's clothing and are truly seen for what they are

Viscious aren't they ! Seems the lady from Alaska scares the shit out of them. Did they apply these same standards to Hillary regarding travelgate?

Oh please, the Dems have always been criticized for being pussies. Don't start crying about a ticky tack foul now. If Palin can't rise to the occassion and put something as trivial as this to rest, she's got no business being in the big leagues.

prove she lied

You didn't read the first post did you?

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.

You didn't read your own articles, did you? She also said she was unaware that her staff had contacted Monegan in regards to Wooten until a staff member presented her with the tape.

You're an idiot.

 

[Chris]

She said her administration did not try to have him fired. Now the Commissioner of Public Safety told the Anchorage Daily News that Palin PERSONALLY called him and emailed him on several occasions to get the trooper fired.

Oops!

He said nothing of the sort. He even said that NO ONE EVER told him to fire Wooten. Read your own fucking articles, hack.

God, you make this fun....

ANCHORAGE — Alaska's former commissioner of public safety claims that Gov. Sarah Palin, John McCain's pick to be vice president, personally talked to him on two occasions about a state trooper who was locked in a bitter custody battle with the governor's sister.

In a phone conversation Friday night, Walt Monegan, who was Alaska's top cop until Palin fired him July 11, told The Anchorage Daily News that the governor also had e-mailed him two or three times about the trooper, Mike Wooten, though the e-mails didn't mention Wooten by name.

What role Palin played in seeking her ex-brother-in-law's dismissal is the governor's first brush with scandal in a political career that has been premised on reforming Alaska's corruption-plagued Republican party and raises questions not only about her willingness to use her office to further a personal agenda but also about her administrative abilities.

Palin's replacement for Monegan, Chuck Kopp, was forced to resign just two weeks after he was appointed because of a sexual harassment complaint that had been filed against him when he was the chief of police in Kenai, Alaska.

Palin, in a news conference announcing Kopp's resignation July 24, said she was unaware that the Kenai city council had reprimanded Kopp as a result of the complaint. She wouldn't discuss how her staff had vetted Kopp before naming him to replace Monegan three days after Monegan was fired.

God, you make this fun....

From the link you JUST POSTED:

"For the record, no one ever said fire Wooten. Not the governor. Not Todd. Not any of the other staff," Monegan said Friday from Portland.

Also, in regards to Wooten:

The personnel investigation began in April 2005, long before Palin became governor and months before her October 2005 announcement that she was running. The investigation into Wooten wrapped up in March 2006, before she was elected.

Troopers found four instances in which Wooten violated policy, broke the law, or both.

Why did you post two threads of exactly the same thing, Kirk?

McClatchy Washington Bureau | 08/30/2008 | Fired official: Palin talked to me about ex-brother-in-law

and you are ridiculous
that doesnt support your claim that Palin lied either

 

[Jon]

And, from the link you posted yesterday:

Palin said her husband also contacted Monegan about a threat made by Wooten but backed off when Monegan indicated he couldn't get into the matter.

The family had alleged the threat in 2005, before Palin became governor. They said Wooten had told Palin's sister he would shoot their father if he got the sister a lawyer.

Wooten denied saying anything like that. But a trooper investigation concluded he did, although it wasn't a crime because he didn't threaten the father directly. Wooten's actions did violate trooper policy, the investigator found.

Hey, thanks for finding me links to prove she did nothing wrong. It saves me the trouble of Googling.

The Most Popular Governor
Alaska's Sarah Palin is the GOP's newest star.

Juneau
The wipeout in the 2006 election left Republicans in such a state of dejection that they've overlooked the one shining victory in which a Republican star was born. The triumph came in Alaska where Sarah Palin, a politician of eye-popping integrity, was elected governor. She is now the most popular governor in America, with an approval rating in the 90s, and probably the most popular public official in any state.

Her rise is a great (and rare) story of how adherence to principle--especially to transparency and accountability in government--can produce political success. And by the way, Palin is a conservative who only last month vetoed 13 percent of the state's proposed budget for capital projects. The cuts, the Anchorage Daily News said, "may be the biggest single-year line-item veto total in state history."

As recently as last year, Palin (pronounced pale-in) was a political outcast. She resigned in January 2004 as head of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission after complaining to the office of Governor Frank Murkowski and to state Attorney General Gregg Renkes about ethical violations by another commissioner, Randy Ruedrich, who was also Republican state chairman.

State law barred Palin from speaking out publicly about ethical violations and corruption. But she was vindicated later in 2004 when Ruedrich, who'd been reconfirmed as state chairman, agreed to pay a $12,000 fine for breaking state ethics laws. She became a hero in the eyes of the public and the press, and the bane of Republican leaders.

In 2005, she continued to take on
the Republican establishment by... --->

She lied to the public about trying to exert influence, and then fired the Commissioner and replaced him with a guy who had already been reprimanded for sexual harrassment, so then she had to replace him.
