From Kathleen McCoy at the ADN's Alaska Newsreader --

Mother Jones mojo blog reports that Senate President Lyda Green is pursuing options that might allow the state Senate to convene and deal with Troopergate.

Calling herself a "raging Republican," Green says, she is "absolutely disgusted, embarrassed, and ashamed" by the McCain-Palin campaign's intervention in the Troopergate probe.

Green is alarmed by the McCain squad's use of hardball tactics and "the length to which they're going to impede and delay" the investigation. The local press conferences held by McCain-Palin aides, she adds, "are vile. They're attacking nice people, saying things that are not true. Walt Monegan has been respected in all circles. To see him used as a scapegoat is very disheartening."

hope this happens.

2. I don't understand

why Alaska doesn't get an injunction against the McCain campaign to prevent them from interfering in state business.:shrug:

6. the attorney general isn't enforcing the subpeonas. he's palin's

tool. Lyda Green becoming a heroine out of this shows how weird this is. she is about as ferocious a right wing republican as you can find on earth. Yet I hope she succeeds and count on it. She is one totally vengeful person. Palin may have met her match.

3. FYI, Lyda Green is the woman who was being discussed in a radio show where Palin was a guest. Palin

laughed while Green was called a "bitch", a "cancer" (Green is a cancer survivor, and Palin KNOWS this) and mocked for her weight.
