Sarah Palin’s “Troopergate” troubles, a top Alaska Democratic lawmaker has called on the state’s attorney general to appoint an independent investigator to probe whether operatives in Sen.

So recently, new information broke about Sarah Palin and her husband Todd’s involvement with this whole “Troopergate” scandal. He admitted that one officer was fired because of a “dispute with the governor and her staff over budget issues and failure to fill trooper vacancies.” BLAH BLAH BLAH.

Curious lack of curiosity about this in media coverage if you ask me. Think about it -- if the Alaskan police internal probe of alleged wrongdoing by state trooper Mike Wooten, Palin's former brother-in-law, had been a complete whitewash, would not the Palins have been justifiably irritated? After all, the allegations against Wooten were serious enough -- and numerous enough -- to warrant serious scrutiny. Wooten had been accused of threatening to kill Sarah Palin's father, tasering his 10... Read Full Story
