Not only does the Branchflower Report deliver the goods. It does so at a bargain price.

When legislators voted July 28 to investigate potential abuses of power in the administration of Gov. Sarah Palin, they authorized spending up to $100,000.

But the investigation cost the state less than that - about $75,000, said state Sen. Hollis French, an Anchorage Democrat who served as "project director."

There have been many parts of this investigation that have surprised me, or tickled me, or bothered me. But this part really, really impresses me.

In this day and age nobody EVER does anything for less money then they originally asked for. But Stephen Branchflower demonstrates once again that he is a man of integrity.

As a mater of fact, almost all of the players in this little serio-comedy seem to have integrity, with the notable exception of Sarah Palin, her husband, and some of her staff.

    Who are if any are the investigative reporters here in Alaska. There are rumors out now that Todd Pali may have had a little of the Ted Stevens type help in bulilding of his house on the lake. Doesn't Alaska have any investigative reporters or does it take someone from down south to do the job

  2. That seems very unusual in government and I'm glad to see credit where credit is due.
