It's never the crime it's the coverup. It will eventually come out that Palin grossly overstepped and will have to pay the piper for her inappropriate behavior.

It is always the conservatives who preach one way and act another. No government interference except when I want to can my sister's ex (or build a bridge to nowhere; or take $27Million in earmarks)
Sarah Palin is just the new face of Republican hypocrisy

Yeah, it's the cover-up that's so shady. Especially since her big claim to relevance is that she's a reformer. Ha! Being a reformer suggests that you are open and honest in government, which is not what's happening in Troopergate. It would also suggest that you don't practice cronyism, as Palin clearly did. With reformers like this, we might as well just keep Bush & Cheney!

witness in troopergate reverses her testimony.

The lies, the coverup, the truth usually comes to the surface. Palin is and was a terrible choice for Alaska and would be a disasterous choice for this country. I say to my conservative friends " look at how she treats the law, (run, hide and avoid) just like a petty thief. Think about how she would treat this country. Politics may or may not have anything to do with the investigation, why not stand up and face your accusers...what else does she have to hide???

When Palin returns to Alaska she will face
impeachment and criminal charges. She is a total fraud and the folks back home are aware that they have a vindictive, vengeful and incompetent beauty queen in charge of their state. She can find a new job in Wasilla and take care of her newborn.

the article states: "five Republican lawmakers filed suit against the bipartisan panel which created the inquiry, the probe's manager and the special counsel spearheading it. Last week, the state attorney general - a Palin appointee - filed another suit, also aiming to stop the probe, claiming the legislature does not have the authority to investigate Palin."

am i mistaken or was the initial argument against cooperating that the investigation was partisan? Well there sure is nothing partisan about actions outlined in the above statement but I guess partisan only flows one way.

Those with nothing to hide don't run from investigations.. it's plain and simple folks

Isn't it the right wing that complains about people and lawyers abusing the courts and tieing the system in knots?

Once again we see a perfect example of do I say not as I do -or- my rules apply to you not to me?

This is turning into such a joke I almost feel sorry for Palin. The case will be thrown out of court as the judge does not have the jurisdiction to stop the legislature from doing its own investigation. There's this amazing thing called separation of powers, the Republicans might want to look it up. Also, please tell me how this investigation has been tainted. No new people have been added to the investigation and the only abuse occurring is McCain's people trying to hide evidence of Palin's wrong doing. If this judge even accepts this case, he has proven himself to be a GOP operative and should be disbarred.

Lincoln Chaffe, Rhode Island, had it right from the very beginning - Sarah Palin is a COCKY WACKO. She has no substance and has had her 15 minutes of fame. And to watch John McCain and his erratic behavior sends a clear message - there are two COCKY WACKOS. Never in all my decades did I ever think I would witness the demise of America as the last 8 years has destroyed any semblence of transparancy or accountibility. We are governed through FEAR and GREED.
