The Alaska Legislature reported that Palin abused her power and acted unethically. But when asked about it, numerous times, by numerous reporters, she said that she is glad that they cleared her of any illegal and unethical behavior. They said what she did was abuse of power and unethical. But not illegal.

So, if anyone had any doubts about whether she is a politician or not, she sure is now.

Anchorage Daily News Calls Palin a Big "Orwellian" Liar Hometown audiences can be harsh--especially when they are disappointed. After the Alaska Troopergate report was released and declared that Governor Sarah Palin had abused her office, Palin maintained that she had been exonerated. Not so fast, says the Anchorage Daily News. Here's how the newspaper responded to Palin's claim:

Sarah Palin's reaction to the Legislature's Troopergate report is an embarrassment to Alaskans and the nation.
She claims the report "vindicates" her. She said that the investigation found "no unlawful or unethical activity on my part."
Her response is either astoundingly ignorant or downright Orwellian.
Page 8, Finding Number One of the report says: "I find that Governor Sarah Palin abused her power by violating Alaska Statute 39.52.110(a) of the Alaska Executive Branch Ethics Act."
In plain English, she did something "unlawful." She broke the state ethics law.
....If she had actually read it, she couldn't claim "vindication" with a straight face.
....Palin's response is the kind of political "big lie" that George Orwell warned against. War is peace. Black is white. Up is down.
....You asked us to hold you accountable, Gov. Palin. Did you mean it?
Bottom line: Gov. Palin, read the report. It says you violated the ethics law.
It's hard to accuse the Anchorage Daily News of being part of the Eastern establishment liberal media conspiracy that is supposedly out to destroy Palin.

:) They are real close to Russia up there. So maybe they could claim KGB Disinformation. :)

Or, they're so far west they're eastern.

You just don't understand.

By "Violating Alaska Statute 39.52.110(a) of the Alaska Executive Branch Ethics Act," she was merely proving that she truly is a "maverick."

Wink.
