Palin's Claims She Feared Wooten Were Bogus
Here's another interesting finding, that belies a key claim made by Governor Palin in her defense against the Trooper-Gate allegations.
"Governor Palin has stated publically that she and her family feared Trooper Wooten. Yet the evidence presented has been inconsistent with such claims of fear."
...
"I conclude that such claims of fear were not bona fide and were offered to provide cover for the Palin's real motivation: to get Trooper Wooten fired for personal family related reasons."

The McCain camp speaks:
"Today's report shows that the Governor acted within her proper and lawful authority in the reassignment of Walt Monegan," said Palin spokeswoman Meg Stapelton. "The report also illustrates what we've known all along: this was a partisan led inquiry run by Obama supporters and the Palins were completely justified in their concern regarding Trooper Wooten given his violent and rogue behavior. Lacking evidence to support the original Monegan allegation, the Legislative Council seriously overreached, making a tortured argument to find fault without basis in law or fact. The Governor is looking forward to cooperating with the Personnel Board and continuing her conversation with the American people regarding the important issues facing the country."

The most important thing in the report was the first thing of substance mentioned: Palin DID abuse her power as Governor of Alaska. I believe that is an impeachable offense. I sure hope so and I hope the legislature starts impeachment proceedings on November 5th.

Here's your real October surprise: the man in charge of the Palin's security detail stated under oath that Todd Palin spent "at least 50% of his time in the Governor's office". While legislators and staff claim she didn't. What this says to me is, rather than the traditional role reversal that feminists covet, Palin was elected then ceded power and responsibility to her unelected and undereducated husband.
The upside for her is (if you put aside the fact they had a full-time nanny), Palin did spend at least 50% of her time raising her kids after being elected as Governor of Alaska.

Mariana Mensch: You made some good points that haven't been mentioned much yet. Such as:
"Here's your real October surprise: the man in charge of the Palin's security detail stated under oath that Todd Palin spent "at least 50% of his time in the Governor's office". While legislators and staff claim she didn't. What this says to me is, rather than the traditional role reversal that feminists covet, Palin was elected then ceded power and responsibility to her unelected and undereducated husband."
I have believed this for quite some time now just by what was revealed in ADN and Juneau Empire news pieces. Todd Palin really was the Shadow Governor. Another reasons for Alaskans to RECALL Sarah Palin (and her shadow) NOW.
Mariana Mensch also said: "The upside for her is (if you put aside the fact they had a full-time nanny), Palin did spend at least 50% of her time raising her kids after being elected as Governor of Alaska."
If that is true then there is even less of an excuse for the results of their parenting style IMO.
