Bias Alert: Palin “Troopergate” Probe Concludes
Observe: MSNBC and AP insist on clamoring that laws were broken.
However, this WSJ story says that ethics rules were violated but that no laws were actually broken when Palin fired the Public Safety Commissioner.
Who to believe? Good question.
The report itself – which you can download here – may be somewhat biased itself, since several members of the investigative commission were not exactly Palin fans (including Senate President Lyda Green, a Republican).
Some of the report’s findings are even contradictory, since one of them holds that Palin abused her authority in violation of Alaska Statue 39.52.110(a) - which by its language seems drafted to forbid self-dealing and defines it rather broadly – and yet another one of the report’s findings says that Governor Palin broke no law by firing the Public Safety Commissioner at the center of this whole mess.
At any rate, it’s over now. Let’s see what fallout results.
Meanwhile, most of the MSM don’t seem to think Obama’s problematic associations and his conduct vis a vis the Iraqi government are worth talking about.
UPDATE: Hot Air has more, including a statement from the McCain camp.
