Geee, if I were in that situation, I'd want him fired too! Being the guvna, I'd be leaning on someone to get rid of him.

Seems to me it's best to not post someone else's politically motivated crap on a sailing site.
This entire post was an excellent assessment of that letter. The tazing incident was one of a long list of concerns about the trooper in question. However, had that been the only incident and I lived in Alaska, I would be infuriated if my governor did not act against him.

The rest was a mismash that seemed to indicate a contradictory or at least inconsistent thought pattern on the governor.

I have been reading similar opinions from people who claim to know Obama as well. I put no stock in any of them on either side. I know too well from first hand experience that in politics, old axes are never sufficiently ground. I'll depend upon their records.

I agree with jarcher. I stopped reading the letter halfway through. It was obviously written by a liberal with an axe to grind, selectively leaving out all the facts, but hey, that's politics.

I spoke to my cousin Mike and his wife Vicki last weekend about Palin. They're from Wassila and Vicki knows Sarah. They think she's great and will be voting for her ticket. They're conservatives. What's it prove? Not a darn thing.
