A Palinode is a Retraction of an Earlier Ode...Palin Investigates Self!

Accident, or foretelling?

What is Sarah Palin's relationship to VECO? Ever since Ted Stevens' office got raided she's bruited about her "bad relationship" with the Big Alaskan...surely there's something more...Her neighbor Vic Kohring is doing three and a half for bribery...Here are possible phone numbers for Vic: 907-373-1842

907-269-0153

907-465-2186

...where's his lawyer? Where's her lawyer?

**update**
Okay, she's hired a lawyer for the AK legislature's Troopergate inquiry. (Unfamiliar? Palin fired her public safety commissioner for his refusal to fire her sister's ex-husband, a state trooper. It's like Attorneygate, just smaller; personal loyalty as the shibboleth of holding non-partisan office...) Now what's weird, according to Sen. Hollis French (D-Anchorage) is
Usually, the attorney general would represent the governor's office, "at least for anything that happens I think in her capacity as a governor, which is clearly this,"
So perhaps getting private counsel is just one-stop shopping, preparing for the Ted Stevens phone calls to make it to trial, or preparing for revelation of her connections to VECO when she was mayor of Wasilla AK...
Or, she's just trying to keep all legal action in-house. Filing an ethics complaint against yourself is just another way to investigate parallel to the legislature's investigation. Which, again, Bushites know all about.
