Yup, she did! An answer to the question
Discuss…Will she get booted off the ticket? I’m thinking not, but this could be a game-changer, if a minor one.
The article I read said there were no recommendations for either punitive or legal actions. I’m thinking this will not be a game changer at all.
She broke a state ethics law and it is a misdemeanor. Alaska Statute 39.25.900 says that “A state employee who is convicted of a misdemeanor under this chapter or the personnel rules adopted under this chapter immediately forfeits the employee’s office or position.” She sh/could get fired.
Well I don’t know what all the fuss is about here. That troooper was dangerous and violent, and woulda just run amuck if Sarah hadn’t a stepped in like that to protect the people of Alaska. Just ask her sister…she’ll tell ya that the trooper wasn’t a good egg at all. As an energy producin’ state, the people of Alaska deserve that level of protection from their governor. If she can’t keep them safe like she is in her home office, then she’s breached a sacred trust with all the good people. Takin’ tough steps like that to protect the people isn’t always the “safe” path, but it’s something that a true maverick will do when they’re not beholdin’ to any special interests beyond their own.
I’m really not arguing whether she did or did not violate the ethics law. A panel has determined that she did, but she has been convicted of nothing and the panel does not recommend a criminal investigation.
The nearly 300-page report does not recommend sanctions or a criminal investigation.
That doesn’t mean that there won’t be pressure from some quarters to have a criminal investigation, but for now this will not change anything. Lots of politicians get slapped on the wrist for doing all kinds of things. But I think it is the exception for a politician who has not been indicted at the very least, to end up out of office as a result of their misdeeds. Hell, and I know I’ll be chided for bringing this up, Cheney got away with shooting a guy in the face with no consequences.
You betcha!
Dude. The guy he shot apologized. Get over it.
Yes, of course, you’re right.
“My family and I are deeply sorry for all that Vice President Cheney and his family have had to go through this past week.” - Harry Whittington, shooting victim
I’m glad he spoke for his family as well. God knows it would have weighed heavily on Cheney’s mind if he had to bear the thought that Mr Whittington’s family held him a grudge.
You forgot the :D:D:D:D:D, clown!
Some may mistakenly think you’re serious!
But her fellow Republicans don’t think you’re serious.
