Troopergate probe running into new resistance

By STEVE QUINN, Associated Press Writer 23 minutes ago

Alaska's investigation into whether Gov. Sarah Palin abused her power, a
potentially damaging distraction for John McCain's presidential
campaign, ran into intensified resistance Tuesday from state Republican
lawmakers who want to end it or delay it past the election.

Alaska's House speaker, a Republican who supported the "Troopergate"
investigation two months ago, openly questioned its impartiality and
raised the possibility of delaying the findings.

The surprise maneuver by Rep. John Harris reflected deepening resolve by
Republicans to spare Palin embarrassment or worse in the final weeks of
the presidential campaign.

And it marked a further fraying of a bipartisan consensus, formed by a
unanimous panel before Palin became McCain's running mate, that her
firing of the state's public safety commissioner justified the ethical
investigation.

Gotta love the Repubs...stonewall, stonewall, stonewall.


Damn you people are dumb. The Alaska State Troopers belong to the
AFL CIO that has spent $millions on the Obama campaign. Troopergate
is a political smear job.


This might almost make a tiny little bit of sense if the Alaska State
Troopers, The AFL-CIO or the Obama campaign had anything to do with
launching or conducting the investigation. But, the fact that it was
initially launched by the very Republicans who are now trying, as a result
of desperate pleas from the McCain campaign, to cover it up and make it go
away, only highlights who's REALLY dumb here.

Take a look in a mirror, Bozo.
