Gov. Sarah Palin, already found by one investigation to have abused her power, will take time from her vice presidential campaign Friday to give a deposition in a second inquiry into her firing of the state’s top public safety official. It will be the first deposition in the affair by the Republican vice presidential candidate. Palin wasn’t subpoenaed to answer questions in an investigation by the state Legislature, though her husband, Todd, gave an affidavit in that probe.
I was very excited when I first read this because I thought that Governor Sarah was deigning to return to Alaska. I naively thought, "Maybe we will get video of the deposition" or "Perhaps some local news outlets will finally get a chance to ask her some REAL questions". Since apparently Alaska counts as the REAL America.
But I should have known better.
The Palins’ attorney, Thomas Van Flein, said Tuesday that the governor and her husband will both give depositions Friday afternoon outside of Alaska, but declined to say where. She is on the campaign trail as Republican John McCain’s running mate. McCain-Palin campaign spokesman Taylor Griffin said Palin’s Friday schedule has not been released.
I should have known better. My guess is that Governor Sarah will not lower herself to return to our little back water until she has been soundly defeated and slinks back to Wasilla to lick her wounds and formulate her plans for a Presidential run in 2012.
Maybe then we will get a chance to see the fancy new duds that she has buying for herself with GOP money.
So I cannot help but wonder when this second investigation will reveal? Will we see some of that super secret information that the Branchflower report decided was too sensitive? And will this report come out before November 4th? And will we even get a chance to see it?
Stay tuned kids for the continuing saga of "Sarah Palin and her imploding political career".
I first read the title as 'Sarah Palin to be *disposed* on Friday.' *snort*
ReplyDeleteI'm sure there will be lots of interviews of her saying she didn't do anything wrong no matter what the investigation reveals.
I want someone to ask her about Trig's birth under oath.
