Because, remember, they are above the law. And they don't have to answer questions, not from investigators, not from the evil media. Is there any surprise that Sarah Palin abused power??? "That one" is just a law-abusing fraud. Of course Palin and McCain will say it was a "kangaroo court." Because, remember, they are above the law.

She thought she would get away with it that is why she said in the debate she thought the VP should have more power. If the American people vote her in as VP she will continue to think she is above the law and untouchable. It has to stop now. McCain knew today she was that it would not be ruled in her favor that is why he did the about face regarding Obama at his rally today. My guess is McCain will recind her as the VP choice and renominate someone else. Palen abused her powers as Governor.

Don't get me wrong, I am Obama all of the way, but I think republicans will try and find a way to justify her behavior...just like they have been doing all along. Blaming the Dems. I have voted both ways in the past, but, there is no way I will EVER vote republican again! This election and the state of our economy have taught me a very valuable lesson.

Every polition has been involved in abuse of power or whatever she did. We need Palin in office so people can really see how smart she is and then she will be our first lady presidant. I just wish she was running with a younger candadate. She and George W would make the best team ever!! Okay, let's admit it and move on.

I can GUARANTEE you will find ample amounts of abuse of power. so don't stand on your high horses and look down your long noses at Palin. did she do wrong? yes she did. Alaska did not see fit to punish her so that is the states decision, not ours. Ofcourse most of you want to elect the man that will create new divisions of the federal government to oversee everything. Maybe we can just ask Obama to cancel all of the state laws and allow the federal government to help us all by ruling us as a collective unit.....hoorah for communism.

Palin is a mess. "We shouldn't be in a position where public records have been lost because the governor didn't do what every other state employee knows to do, which is to use an official, secure state e-mail account to conduct state business," McLeod said after the 90-minute hearing. "It's a dereliction of the governor and her duties," she said Judge orders Palin's Emails Be Preserved. Palin is a mess.
