Palin's endless ethics investigations 'unfair'

An ethics watchdog believes outgoing Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin is being unfairly targeted in the latest ethics complaint filed against her.

Palin is strongly denying reports that claim an independent investigator has found evidence she may have violated Alaska's ethics laws. On July 21, The Associated Press reported an independent investigator for the state Personnel Board found there may be evidence suggesting that a trust fund created to pay Palin's legal expenses is in violation of state ethics law.

She immediately called the AP report an "inaccurate story" and released a statement later calling any allegation that the defense fund accepted any inappropriate donations "misguided and factually in error."

Ken Boehm, chairman of the National Legal and Policy Center, has several objections to the charges. "Under Alaska law and under ethics law just about everywhere, investigators aren't supposed to leak things out before the investigation is concluded," he notes. "Now it's been cited by Sarah Palin herself and others on her behalf (that) this just violates Alaska law."

According to Boehm, there is nothing unethical about setting up a legal defense fund. "Every state I'm aware of allows setting up defense funds, so to somehow say that she did this and it's an end-run when she hasn't accessed the funds," he adds. "Nothing actually has been done other than normally what gets done in the setting up of this kind of a trust."

Boehm is confident that Palin will, once again, be completely cleared of any wrongdoing.

1. Well, I call her the Ayatollah of Alaska; but either way, I'm glad that she's now unlikely to be

president.

2. Not a fair comparison...

Iran's Council of Experts and ruling Ayatollahs do indeed have an expert knowledge of Shia Islam (regardless of how they interpret the Qu'ran and the Hadith and how they choose to apply their knowledge), Sarah Palin's knowledge of Christianity is so superficial and so clouded by rapturist irrationalism that she sounds about as intelligent as Ted Stevens droning about the Internet.

3. you misspelled "asshole" ...

4. Oh! Well, if she's strongly denying the reports

That should be good enough. And I'm sure the American Family Association, as scrupulous as they are about these things, was every bit as upset about investigation leaks from, say, the Kenneth Starr investigation of Bill Clinton. Right?

5. They're blaming the wrong folk.

Coale did it. Him and Greta.

He set up the legal fund for her. It's an MO of scientology, what with the legal fair-gaming an bullshit lawsuits and all. Apparently, he didn't check the fine print.
