After Deep Anal Probe, Palin Clears Self In Trooper Gate

Oh, this is RICH...Sarah Palin has cleared herself on the Eve of the State of Alaska announcing its own findings in Trooper Gate. Apparently after a deep anal self exploration of her shitty motives in the Trooper Gate Scandal, she has decided SHE DID NOTHING WRONG! You have to wonder what is wrong inside the McCain Campaign when they decide they can conduct their own investigation of his running mates ethical wrongdoings, but then John McCain has stated publically he has always been an aspiring dictator. Wonder if she will talk about her innocence out on the Stump this morning so that her talking points make it into the 24 hour news cycle? Maybe she could explain how it is that her own investigation of her actions in Trooper Gate seem to contradict her husbands ANSWERS in his affidavit? Is she now doing her own investigation of Per Diem Gate?

ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- Trying to head off a potentially embarrassing state ethics report on GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, campaign officials released their own report Thursday that clears her of any wrongdoing.

Sen. John McCain's running mate is the subject of a legislative investigation into whether she abused her power as governor by firing her public safety commissioner. The commissioner, Walter Monegan, says he was dismissed in July for resisting pressure from Palin's husband, Todd Palin, and numerous top aides to fire state trooper Mike Wooten, Palin's former brother-in-law.

Lawmakers are expected to release their own findings Friday. Campaign officials have yet to see that report - the result of an investigation that began before she was tapped as McCain's running mate - but said the investigation has falsely portrayed a legitimate policy dispute between a governor and her commissioner as something inappropriate.
