Those 8 Republicans and 4 Democrats voted UNANIMOUSLY to investigate any wrong doing.

Sarah Palin said she would cooperate and in fact would welcome the investigation.

I am so glad she is finally being exposed for what she is - a lying, vindictive, vicious train wreck.

Why is this bitch lying through her teeth? DO NOT LIE TO THE WORLD.

She's amazing! Future WH Press Secretary for President Palin? :)

Meg is awesome!

Well guess what dummy? She committed a crime also because she had to sign the tag. And both the Heath and Palin families ate the meat! Seems funny that the only complaints about Wooten are from the Palins and Heaths. There have been no complaints from the general public about his behavior. Mmmmmm. In ~ 2000 Sarah "O. J." Palin wrote Wooten a glowing letter of recommendation for the troopers.

She's not lying... she's simply stating the facts.  I can't believe Gara is so sensitive on this... he's trying to win points by ambushing her in front of cameras.

But we don't, actually. And if an employer fires someone without due cause, they get taken to tribunal and forced to compensate the employee.

That doesn't wok on the civil servant level, however. Basically, in such atmospheres, people are guaranteed tenancy for life, unless they REALLY screw up. The trooper may have deserved firing, but his line manager cannot be held accountable for not firing him. ILLEGAL.

This Tropergate is bulls*it, this is why we have an "at will" employment law. The employer doesn't have to give a reason to fire someone. The one in question was let go because he would not fire a trooper. The trooper in question has done at least three offenses to fire for, driving around with an open beer in his cruiser, tasing his 11yr old step-son and moose poaching with his WIFE'S hunting permit.

Well it's not over yet...There are state employees to testify regarding this case and there is another 800 pages of this report yet to be released

One more nail in her coffin.
