"More Palin Lies: The Trooper in 'Troopergate' Breaks His Silence"
[
The Alaska State Trooper at the center of Sarah Palin's so-called "Troopergate
Scandal"--which impeded her run for the vice-presidency and stained her record
as Alaska governor--has broken his more than year-long silence since his
embattled divorce with Palin's sister, Molly, became a cause celebre during last
year's presidential campaign.

After reading passages from Palin's memoirs Going Rogue that deal with his
marriage and subsequent divorce, a "fed up" Mike Wooten, 37, who still serves as
an Alaska State Trooper in Anchorage, called the book "a pack of lies."

According to Wooten, Palin and her father, Chuck Heath Sr., have "interfered
with my life--and my children's lives--for at least the last five years. And it
is still going on. I'm done with it."

Characterizing his adversaries as "snakes," Wooten said he has kept quiet long
enough. "From this point on I'm speaking my mind," he declared. "I'm speaking
the truth. Let the chips fall where they may." He acknowledged that he is
considering taking legal action against Palin on multiple fronts.

Although Palin would try to claim otherwise during the presidential campaign, an
independent investigation ordered by the bipartisan Alaska Legislative Council
(composed of ten Republicans and four Democrats) and conducted by former
Republican prosecutor Steve Branchflower, resulted in the finding "that Governor
Palin abused her power by violating Alaska Statute 39.52.110(a) of the Alaska
Executive Branch Ethics Act."

The report issued by Branchflower documented more than thirty occasions in which
then Governor Palin, her husband Todd or members of her staff tried to influence
Alaska's highly regarded Commissioner of Public Safety, Walt Monegan, to fire
Wooten. When Monegan refused, Palin fired him instead.

In addition to the finding that Palin "abused" her office, the Alaska Senate
cited Todd Palin and nine other state employees for "contempt" for ignoring
legislative subpoenas to testify in the Troopergate investigation.

New Troopergate report clears Palin

By LISA DEMER | lde...@adn.com

Published: November 3rd, 2008 05:56 PM
Last Modified: November 3rd, 2008 05:57 PM

A new report just released -- hours before the polls open on Election
Day -- exonerates Gov. Sarah Palin in the Troopergate controversy.

The state Personnel Board-sanctioned investigation is the second into
whether Palin violated state ethics law in firing her public safety
commissioner, and it contradicts the earlier findings by a special
counsel hired by the state Legislature.

Both investigations found that Palin was within her rights to fire
Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan.

But the new report says the Legislature's investigator was wrong to
conclude that Palin abused her power by allowing aides and her
husband, Todd, to pressure Monegan and others to dismiss her
ex-brother-in-law, Trooper Mike Wooten. Palin was accused of firing
Monegan after Wooten stayed on the job.

The Palins have argued that Wooten was a loose cannon who had tasered
his stepson, drank beer in his patrol car, and threatened Palin's
father, and that their complaints that he shouldn't be on the force
were justified.

The Troopergate matter became sharply politicized after Palin was
announced as Republican presidential candidate John McCain's running
mate in Tuesday's election.

The report, released at a Monday afternoon press conference at the
Hotel Captain Cook, presents the findings and recommendations of
Anchorage lawyer Timothy Petumenos, hired as independent counsel for
the Personnel Board to examine several complaints against Palin.

Petumenos wrote the Legislature's special counsel, former state
prosecutor Steve Branchflower, used the wrong state law as the basis
for his conclusions and also misconstrued the evidence.

His findings and recommendations include:

- There is no cause to believe Palin violated the state ethics law in
deciding to dismiss Monegan as public safety commissioner.

- There is no cause to believe Palin violated the state ethics law in
connection with Wooten.

- There is no cause to believe any other state official violated the
ethics act.

- There's no basis to conduct a hearing to "address reputational
harm," as requested by Monegan.

- The state needs to address the issue of using private e-mails for
government work and to examine how records are kept in the governor's
office. Palin used her Yahoo e-mail account for state business until
it was hacked.

-

Teabagging is an erotic activity used within
the context of BDSM and male dominance, with
a dominant man teabagging his submissive
partner as one variation of facesitting and/or
as a means of inflicting erotic humiliation.

A favorite hobby amongst LIBERALS.

If they are "self avowed" then you should be able to provide cites those
who "fill" the Obama Administration and which are what. Please do so.

You guys are so far to the right that even moderates appear "far left
fringe." Have you ever considered that it is your perspective at fault
if the whole world is proceeding on a different course?

In what way was Palin's appointed state Personnel Board the
same as the bipartisan Alaska Legislative Council or
Republican prosecutor Steve Branchflower?

>
>Huffpo lies and you felt compelled to spread the lies.

Did or did not the independent investigation ordered by the bipartisan Alaska
Legislative Council and Republican prosecutor Steve Branchflower find
that Palin had abused her power?

Yes or no.

Did or did not Palin allow her aides and her husband to pressure Monegan and
others to dismiss her ex-brother-in-law, Trooper Mike Wooten?

Yes or no.

Did or did not Palin fire Monegan?

Yes or no.

What of "cited Todd Palin and nine other state employees for "contempt""?

Palin hired a bunch of lawyers.
Why not just tell the truth & save the money?

Yes, they are however the Chinese position is available only to large
developing nations with a slave labor force. The playing field is not
level.

No, moron, the socialism didn't fall flat, the totalitarianism did,

between socialism and totalitarianism.

Except the major filer of corruption claims was a Republican. If you got
your facts straight maybe your excuses would hold water.

"the bipartisan Alaska Legislative Council"
"Republican prosecutor Steve Branchflower"
"the Alaska Senate"

What court did Palin use?
Let's see the transcript of the trial.


On July 18, Palin said "we would never prohibit, or be less than enthusiastic
about any kind of investigation."

On July 21, Palin said that said she welcomed an investigation. "I've said all
along, hold me accountable," Palin told reporters.

On July 24, Palin said "I have absolutely nothing to hide � I'm happy to answer
any questions between now and when they [the legislature] do conduct an
investigation also. � I'm happy to comply, to cooperate. � No problem with an
independent investigation."

On July 29, Palin's spokesperson said "the governor has said all along that she
will fully cooperate with an investigation and her staff will cooperate as
well."

On August 13, an official press release stated "Governor Palin has directed all
of her staff to cooperate fully with Branchflower."

On August 29, Palin's attorney wrote to Branchflower: "Please know that we
intend to cooperate with this investigation � I would like to review our
calendars to schedule depositions of witnesses."

On August 30, the McCain campaign said "Governor Palin is an open book on this
-- she did nothing wrong and has nothing to hide. � she has been happy to
cooperate fully in the inquiry of this matter. � The legislature and Attorney
General are both currently reviewing the circumstances of Walt Monegan�s
departure � and the Governor is fully cooperating with those inquiries."

On August 30, the Washington Times reported that Palin knew Branchflower by
reputation, and welcomed the investigation: "I know he's a prosecutor, probably
a heavy duty prosecutor, and so that kind of puzzles us why we are going down
that road when we are very, very open to answering any questions anybody has of
me or administrators � But I think this process will bode well for the state of
Alaska and our administration, having a review committee of those experts in
public safety, in the trooper organization."

On September 4, the Anchorage Daily News noted that Palin had made repeated
public statements that she would cooperate, and reported that Palin's attorney
had said that hadn't changed.


THEN:

On September 1, Palin requested that the Personnel Board review the matter. That
same date, her lawyer, hired in late August, asked the state Legislature to drop
its investigation, saying that by state law, the Personnel Board had
jurisdiction over ethics issues.

On September 2, Palin's attorney wrote to Branchflower: "It appears that the
[Personnel] Board has jurisdiction over this matter � [therefore you should]
suspend your investigation pending the outcome of the Personnel Board
investigation."

On September 5, French and Ramras made this joint statement: "This week, seven
key witnesses informed Mr. Branchflower through their attorneys that they would
not provide depositions. Their depositions, which had been agreed to and
scheduled earlier with Mr. Branchflower, were cancelled within the last 72
hours."

On September 13, Palin said "we've said all along that � the personnel board is
the appropriate agency or board to inquire."

On September 16, a McCain spokesperson said "the governor is not going to
cooperate with that [Branchflower] investigation."
