"ANCHORAGE, Alaska - The Alaska lawmaker directing an abuse-of-power investigation of Gov. Sarah Palin promised Friday the probe will be finished before the election, despite refusals by key witnesses to testify, including the governor's husband.
After waiting 35 minutes for Todd Palin and two state administrative employees to appear under subpoena before the state Senate Judiciary Committee, Sen. Hollis French condemned their refusal to testify and the attorney general's broken promise that seven other witnesses would testify who were not subpoenaed. "
As we know Palin went after the Oil Companies, took part of their huge profits and gave them back to the citizens of Alaska. Since French works for the oil companies and is a democrat, it is painfully obvious why this investigation began and now that he promises to finish it before the election we can be positive they hope to find a way to smear her before the election. What started as revenge is now including a pitiful and obvious attempt at political sabatoge. Amazing what depths Male politicians will stoop to when a woman succeeds in their world and takes their bosses to task.
Below is French's employment facts from the official Alaska Legislature site:
Co-owner, French Apartments, 1989-present; lead operator, ARCO, 1991-1992; production operator, ARCO, 1984-1990, Shell Oil Company, 1980-1984.

Opening up the health insurance market to more vigorous nationwide competition, as we have done over the last decade in banking, would provide more choices of innovative products less burdened by the worst excesses of state-based regulation.
(h/t: Paul Krugman)
Of course now that things have imploded at Lehman and AIG, John McCain claims to be the world's most sincere champion of tougher regulation. But his new position has all the credibility of his campaign's attacks, which is to say none at all.
So - where did I misquote? Apology accepted
The AIG "bailout" is a loan, unlike welfare it will have to be paid back to the taxpayers.

Since when is Wiki Answers a legitimate source of information?
Social security is a "government program" - it is going broke.
Medicaid/Medicare are "government programs" - they are going broke.
Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac were established by the government and subject to government "oversight" - they are not only broke but will now contribute to bankrupting the country.
What else should we give the government to manage?
