Troopergate probe running into new resistance


JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) -- 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 embarassment or worse in the final weeks of the presidential campaign.

In a letter, Harris wrote that what "started as a bipartisan and impartial effort is becoming overshadowed by public comments from individuals at both ends of the political spectrum," and he urged lawmakers to meet quickly to decide on a course.

"What I may be in favor of is having the report delayed, but only if it becomes a blatant partisan issue," he told The Associated Press, while indicating he already believes it has become politically tainted.

Why would they want to delay the findings? If they think she'll be cleared they have no reason to do that. And then there's this gem:



"Or worse"? Like revealing illegal acts, maybe? Hmmm....

Typical Republicans. "Hey, when we said we were for personal responsibility, we didn't mean personal responsibility for us!" :eyes:

family and running the state for her. The question is HE qualified to be VP?
The other question is "What exactly does she see as her mission to remake this country?"
Do we really want Domionist who pray for the end of times to be one weak heartbeat away from
pushing the button to bring Armageddon?

I say NO and Hell NO
