I don't have a link. It says she abused the powers of her office and violated public trust. I wonder how this will affect the republican campaign?

Sort of the way Ayers is being brought up months after the issue had died? No, I don't find it interesting, it's politics.

Yes, from Alaska newspaper articles, it appears that Monegan was fired in mid July.

Of course not. Sadly too many people believe what they are told. I have always been a questioner which has gotten me in trouble before XD

uuroseygirl,

I have definitely seen this type of bias in liberals just as much as in conservatives. I am certainly not immune, although being aware of it allows me to be more willing to confront it within myself.

As you guessed I do see it in my students all the time. And again being aware of it empowers the individual to be able to move past it. The story with your students is humorous... and allows you to make sure that they actually are paying attention and not just writing down what they expected that they would see. Sounds like a good teaching moment.

Doesn't anyone else but me find it interesting that this happened years ago......they were slowly investigating it.....but after being named VP candidate they accellerated their investigation and gave a report BEFORE the election?!?!?!?

even if they did accelerate it, and we don't know that they did or did not do so, wouldn't it be a good thing to know everything there is to know? Knowledge is power. What you choose to do with that knowledge is one thing, but it is important to have all the facts out so that everyone knows about the ethical and political values of a candidate.

Wooten did not appear to be a model citizen but the charges for each of those things were taken up with the proper authorities and he was punished in whatever way the state troopers saw fit for his case. Once that was done, the commissioner refused to take further action (no double jeopardy). The NYTimes had a good article on the flow of events:

The incident with her BIL happened years ago, and was investigated years ago, and resolved years ago.

Yeah right, that's why they didn't apply any sanctions or any further investigation.

It was "abuse of power."

The board that investigated her was full of Obama supporters, so she got an unfair and unbalanced hearing.


Palin is a whining cry baby and a vicious little bully.
