"Just Tell Them...

I have worked 40 years to make the Women's Suffrage platform broad enough for Atheists and Agnostics to stand upon, and now if need be I will fight the next 40 to keep it Catholic enough to permit the straightest Orthodox religionist to speak or pray and count her beads upon."

Conflict of Interest, Anyone?

As reported by FOX News. (H/T to Woman State for the link.)

"The independent investigator who has accused Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin of violating state ethics laws is a major donor to the Democratic Party as well as a partner in a law firm that represented Barack Obama's presidential campaign.

Thomas Daniel was hired by the Alaska Personnel Board in late April to investigate several complaints against Palin, including one filed by an Alaska resident who claims the governor used her official position for personal gain by authorizing the creation of a trust to use as her legal defense fund.

In a July 14 report leaked to The Associated Press and major news organizations, Daniel accused Palin of drawing improper gifts and unwarranted benefits. His report recommended that Palin refuse to accept payment from the defense fund and settle the complaint to avoid a formal hearing before the board."


Such a bunch of bull.

Did they really think we would not find out about Mr. Daniel's conflict of interests?

    As I posted on the other site--I guess is that the Axeloid Astroturf was and IS involved in getting him up there. Yup.

    And who leaked this memo just before her resignation. I had heard it was leaked earlier but never did find out.

    Time for that un-ethical lawyer to be sued out of the profession!
