If Palin got Monegan fired for her sister…….?

Question

So by now we all know Palin is being looked into for having her ex-brother-in-law fired for her sister. Does that concern you rather she will use her power if she becomes VP for her own agenda? Does this make her an abuser of power? If Obama used his power to get his ex-brother in law fired, would that make him an abuser of power?

Answer 1

There is alot we don't know about this situation; so I would not attempt to cast judgment on something I know very little about.  

Answer 2

It would only concern me if it was more serious than an allegation.

You do know what an allegation is don't you?

Answer 3

Self explanatory

Answer 4

This has been well covered in the Seattle P.I. and the facts are much more obscure than your simple version states. I am confident that Palin will be able to stand all scrutiny on this and that's why the press is all over her current family issues.

Answer 5

Sarah Palin's brother-in-law used a police issued taser gun on his small child, he not only should have been fired, he sould go to prison for child abuse. Where the h**l are your morals. Now that you are voting for an America Hater, have your turned in to one too?

Answer 6

The accuser is blogger and rental car executive Andrew Halcro, a Republican-turned-Independent who lost to Palin in the 2006 governor's race.

The man in the middle is Monegan, who says Palin never told him to fire the trooper, but he felt pressure to do so from members of her administration.

Then there's trooper Mike Wooten, who used a Taser on his stepson, Palin's nephew Payton. Wooten has been reprimanded for violating nearly a dozen laws and departmental policies since December 2001.

It's now in the hands of a state-hired investigator working for a Republican-dominated legislative committee that hopes to sort out the mess.

State lawmakers have long said they understand that Monegan and other commissioners serve at will, meaning they can be fired by Palin at any time.

This investigation into Monegan's dismissal has more than its share of subplots as well. The probe into Palin's involvement if any was ordered by a Republican-dominated state legislative council that includes one of the lawmakers under a federal bribery indictment. And Branchflower, the investigator, is a former Anchorage prosecutor whose wife used to work for Monegan at the Anchorage Police Department.
