'TROOPERGATE'


Good Morning America aired another ABC investigation into allegations that Sarah Palin fired Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan because he refused to fire Palin's ex-brother-in-law Mike Wooten after a messy divorce. It's become known as the "troopergate" scandal.

The investigation has inspired women's domestic abuse groups to get involved because Monegan had embraced their cause. They say Palin has failed to take action to help them, and Alaska is first in the nation for rape and second in the nation for domestic murders by men.
Palin praised Monegan effusively before the Wooten incident. The McCain campaign has attacked the investigation, saying its officials are Obama-supporters. ABC found that even more of its officials are McCain supporters.

[The investigation will set the record straight… however, she is trying to have the results of the investigation released after the election… does that tell you something?]
