McCain campaign says Palin won’t talk to Troopergate investigator.

The McCain campaign said tonight that Gov. Sarah Pali] (R-AK) “won’t speak with an investigator hired by lawmakers to look into the firing of her public safety commissioner” in the controversy known as “Troopergate.” The campaign declared the investigation to be “tainted,” despite the fact that the five-member committee is composed of three Republicans and two Democrats. Palin had previously agreed to cooperate and thus was not subpoenaed. Reporting the story tonight, Keith Olbermann said, “It is like installing a giant neon sign over her head saying, ‘I’m hiding something.’”

1. why can't she speak for herself? Isn't it sexist of the campaign to speak for her?

[andym]

2. Stonewalling...

A great phrase from the early 70s.

[Historic NY]

3. Perhaps Alaska should begin impeachment proceedings..

that might loosen her moose lips.

[Windy]

4. The fact that it is well known the it was a bipartisan move to investigate

this will also have blowback for McCain....

The democrats in Alaska did not seek the investigation in the first place. It was the republican legislature.

10. McCain advice to Palin: The investigation has already been done! Innocent!

Since the batshit assholes are just lying and nobody is calling them on it, all Palin has to say is that the investigation has been finished and she's innocent! YAY!!! SARAH!!!

[symbolman]

11. Uh, isn't a LAWYER supposed to say things like that?

Not a Campaign Spokesperson? Who the FUCK DO THEY THINK THEY ARE? Supoena that WITCH! Drag her ass in there, and if she refuses again..

IMPEACH HER.

IMPEACH PALIN has a nice Ring to it, don't you think?

They just don't wanna, huh? They can PROVE it, but they don't want to?

ARREST HER, take her there in CHAINS.

Where's CONYERS on this?

12. Example from the top down

Bush and Cheney get away with it, so why not McCain and Palin? Our congress is impotent by choice because they have the power but won't use it to force these criminals to testify so we can have justice. Why should state politician follow rules the federal government won't.

13. Why does the McCain speak for Palin?The TrooperGate is

a private matter that predates her connection with the McCain campaign. Can't she speak for herself?

15. I say they need to charge the McCain campaign with OBSTRUCTION.

Where do they get off telling the State govt IF she'll talk or cooperate. Can you EVEN imagine the uproar amongst the MSM talking heads if the Dem ticket tried this? This is utter bullshit.

16. And it IS the McCain campaign.

Sarah appeared to be cooperating fully with this investigation before August 29.
