More hypocrisy from Palin "butt boy" Joe Miller. Shocked! That's what I am, shocked that anybody associated with Sarah Palin would turn out to be a hypocrite!

From the Alaska Dispatch:

U.S. Senate candidate Joe Miller confirmed Monday night that his wife -- once hired to work as a part-time clerk for the same Alaska court in which he was serving as a U.S. magistrate judge -- went on unemployment after she left the job.

Miller is running on a self-described constitutional conservative platform, arguing that the nation must return to the principles and powers penned by the founding fathers to save it from bankruptcy. Putting an end to entitlements on a national level and empowering states has been a key message in his campaign.

In the weeks leading up to the admission about his wife's unemployment history, Miller has finessed his message on unemployment benefits, saying he's not opposed to them but that they should be managed by the states -- not the feds.

While employment records exist for Joe, they were not immediately available for Kathleen, who was not listed among the court's former employees, according to an Oct. 1 e-mail from Richard Carelli, a spokesman for the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. Carelli said he plans to have information available Tuesday.

Carelli has since explained that "part-time magistrate judges often use employees from their law practice to do court work, and that those employees are compensated by the magistrate judge's court."

Halcro and other Miller critics have suggested Miller was forced to fire his wife, calling the couple's working relationship a form of nepotism prohibited by court policies at the time.

So let me see if I have this straight.  Mr. "Unemployment benefits are unconstitutional" hired his own wife to work for him while he was a part-time Federal Magistrate judge, and MAY have had to FIRE her go because it was illegal to have hired her in the first place, BUT was still perfectly willing to have her collect unemployment benefits from the state for the work she was NOT supposed to have been doing for him?

And people are still willing to vote for this guy?

Seriously Alaska have you learned nothing from Sarah Palin's half term as our governor?
