Palin Talks on Troopergate

Sarah speaks.  Unlike Joe Biden, who frequently talks to the media, Sarah Palin hasn’t been doing so much of that since each interview turned into a fiasco.  But today she spoke to reporters.  A KTUU reporter asked, “Do you think you did anything wrong at all in this troopergate case?” The governor replied, “Not at all. And I’ll tell you — I think that you’re always going to ruffle feathers if you do what you believe is in the best interests of the people whom you are serving.”

The Alaska ethics panel which has 10 republicans and 4 democrats thinks differently.  In their rather harsh 263 page report, they find that Palin did plenty wrong when she breached state ethic laws when she, her husband and members of her administration tried to get the ex-husband of her younger sister fired as an Alaska state trooper.

The following is a transcript according to KTUU of an exchange today between Palin and the media:

Question:  A lot of people have voiced concerns about what they call ‘attacks of good people.’

Palin: Well I haven’t heard of any attacks on good people in Alaska from our campaign.

Question: What about calling Monegan a rogue?

Palin: Rogue isn’t a negative term when you consider that in a cabinet you need a team effort going forward with a governor’s agenda. Our agenda has been to find efficiencies in every department. And make sure that we are serving the people of Alaska.

Ok, so rouge isn’t a negative term?  Since when?  I guess, since now.
