Now we know how Joe Miller earned Sarah Palin's endorsement. He tried to block the "Troopergate" investigation!

From the Alaska Dispatch:

Miller's jump into the Troopergate fray came on Sept. 16, 2008, when he filed suit in Fairbanks to stop an investigation already set in motion by the state's Legislative Council. Miller sued on behalf of five Alaskans from the Fairbanks and North Pole communities who wished to "secure their rights as taxpayers and citizens of the State of Alaska to be free from unauthorized, wasteful, and unlawful government spending," according to the opening sentence of Miller's complaint.

Miller argued that another government entity -- the state Personnel Board -- was the appropriate jurisdiction to pursue claims about ethics problems within the executive branch. Allowing the Legislative Council to investigate opened the process to unfair political influences, he said. With a Democratic senator leading the charge and hinting the outcome wouldn't be good for Palin, the process lacked integrity and fairness, Miller argued.

Two years later, Miller's loyalty to Palin and his emergence as a constitutional purist vying for office would be rewarded with her high-profile endorsement of his effort to dislodge Sen. Lisa Murkowski from the U.S. Senate. Miller's race reverberates with Palin's efforts nationwide to change the face of Washington, but it is also deeply personal, happening on home turf and adding the latest chapter to a public feud years in the making. Murkowski's father, former Sen. Frank Murkowski, appointed his daughter to the seat over Palin and other candidates when he vacated the position to become Alaska's governor. Palin would go on to defeat the elder Murkowski in 2006, but her near miss on the Senate appointment stuck with her enough that she wrote about the lost opportunity in her memoir, "Going Rogue."

And THAT ladies and gentlemen is how Joe Miller became Sarah Palin's "butt-boy."

And now he is trying to become her voice in Washington by winning the seat that she felt was stolen from her when Frank Murkowski appointed his daughter instead of Sarah.

In the end EVERYTHING gets boiled down to Sarah Palin's middle school mean girl attitude toward those she feels have wronged her in the past, and her desire to use her influence and power to punish them for daring to deny her what she believed was the destiny that God had laid out for her.

Pay back is a bitch, and now she is attempting to get control of Alaska once again.
