The Palin investigation will be completed on time and will contain depositions from those subpoenaed...

Apparently according to the AK state senator on Rachel Maddow tonight those Palin staff members who refused to cooperate with the investigation had already given depositions earlier to another investigator before Palin was chosen VP and before it had become politicized by the McCain campaign. That means the report could be thorough, detailed and devastating.

:woohoo:

Alaska Sen. Hollis French recommended Friday that Gov. Sarah Palin's husband, Todd Palin, and two state officials, be held in contempt for refusing to comply with a subpoena involving a state sanctioned investigation into allegations the governor improperly fired her top law enforcement official in July.

French: Trooper-Gate Report Will Come Out on Schedule
By Zachary Roth - September 19, 2008 - http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/09/french_troopergate_report_will.php


Despite Republican stonewalling, the Alaska legislature will release its report on Trooper-Gate on time, Sen. Hollis French, the Democrat overseeing the investigation, said today. The report is scheduled to be completed October 10th.

None of the subpoenaed witnesses showed up to testify at a legislative hearing today. ......

Many will assume they are hiding something.

AK Lawmaker on Trooper-Gate: "I Don't Think This Is Gonna End Quietly."
By Zachary Roth - September 18, 2008 - http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/09/ak_lawmaker_on_troopergate_i_d.php


The no-holds-barred effort by the McCain campaign and its Alaska Republican allies to bury the Trooper-Gate investigation at all costs may be bearing fruit.

Republicans have in recent days been calling on Democratic senator Kim Elton to reconvene the bipartisan legislative council with ultimate responsibility for the probe. And yesterday Elton told the Associated Press that he may do so, allowing for a vote on whether to delay the investigation or replace Democratic senator Hollis French as its manager.

The council, which contains 10 Republicans and four Democrats, had voted unanimously in July to launch the investigation. But many observers believe that, now that the probe could play a role in the presidential race, the committee's GOP members will vote to shut it down if given a chance.

Other recent developments confirm that the GOP is pulling out all the stops. ..............

Bring it on. Why should this biatch(sowwy) and her 1st turd be allowed to win an election, get sworn in all legit and stuff AND then we find out they were both f'ing serial killers and the bodies are buried in the basement?

:wtf:

Meanwhile, the band of lawmakers struggling to maintain control of the investigation -- French, Elton, and their supporters in the legislature -- certainly aren't backing down. Despite saying he might agree to GOP calls to reconvene the legislative council, Elton sent a letter yesterday to Colberg, the Attorney General, accusing him of going back on an agreement to allow the ten state employees testify. "Bluntly, I feel like Charlie Brown after Lucy moved the football," Elton wrote to Colberg. Sen. Bill Wielechowski, a Democrat and French ally, told TPMmuckraker: "Hollis French has no intention of buckling under," and said that the same holds true of Elton.

-- from the TPM article.

we were all hoping for Fitzgerald to bust rove's ass.

It does sound like many, R's & D's, want this investigation to go forward and spill the beans.

I thought I'd try a little reverse(perverse) psychology! :evilgrin:

I forgot all about that big let down.

anything but Walt Monegan was born on Christmas Day, 1930:)

you can educate them that a unanimous panel of 8 Republicans and 4 Dems voted for the investigation.

innit........
