Documentation that an ethics advisor recognized the abuse of power and advised her. Her husband recently subpoenaed for his role. A former judge advised her to back off from making disparaging remarks about her ex-in-law...

The McBush campaign not only misjudged her qualifications but they also misjudged this "troopergate" situation and expected it to be dismissed. Looks like McBush has fallen back into his old Keating 5 scandal role and is trying to intimidate the people running the investigation...

Looks like she may have to run across the Bering Strait and hide out in Russia.
Maybe she can build a bridge to somewhere now. Russia won't extradite her.

Mr. Shea was acting on his own in writing the letter, with no official capacity. WSJ article
No official capacity...that would be like one of the many moron posters sending her a letter and thinking she'll listen to it. No official capacity...big freakin' deal.
The guy taser's his kid, drinks more than once in his patrol car, shoots an animal illegally, threatens to kill someone and you want to make a big deal out of it. The subpoenaed Karl Rove too...what good did that do? Oh yeah none because he didn't do anything wrong either!
I love when the lefties get scared it is soooo much fun to watch them grasp at tiny little pointless straws...

This is all they can hope for. That the partisan investigation leads to trouble, which it won't. You leftists want to defend a guy who tasered his own step-son, just because the kid was curious. BTW, the trooper still has his job.

So who's defending him?

Obviously, you've misunderstood the entire point of this investigation. It isn't whether or not the guy deserved to lose his job. It's whether or not a certain politician abused her power in order to change the decision of his boss.

Honestly, they should issue reading comprehension tests before they allow people to post here.

Apparently, he had counseled Palin in the past. She apparently respected his opinion. Karl Rove is a political hack not running for the second highest office in the land. It doesn't make any difference whether any one shows up for the subpoena, they'll be plenty more press coverage on this scandal.
Clip:
An informal adviser who has counseled Gov. Sarah Palin on ethics issues urged her in July to apologize for her handling of the dismissal of the state's public safety commissioner and warned that the matter could snowball into a bigger scandal.

Call Rove names...you lefties are not smart enough for him even if we put all your peanut brains together. Say what you want about Palin this will go nowhere. She did nothing wrong and the fact that y'all keep bringing this up shows how scared you are. Notice how you bring it up and her numbers keep going up…how’s that working for ya? She has completely stolen all momentum from your idiot of a candidate and his true colors are now becoming clear to the independent voters who are voting for McCain/Palin. Now Obama and his campaign finance that will be an issue as he has broken laws...
The Republicans handed this election to the democrats on a silver platter and you still can't win. Even PMSNBC is in trouble...Olberman and Matthews fired from commentary...hahahahahahahahahaha
Keep it up lefties...you are just making it easy for us conservatives.
Next you will blame Palin for Hurricane Ike You did that with Katrina and Bush.

The nail has two heads, one has bloodied Obama badly and other hit a steel wall of the pit bull with lipstick.

Keep trying.
