Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission Chairwoman S arah P alin said Friday she is resigning amid frustration that she is being forced to keep silent about ethics allegations against Republican Party of Alaska chairman Randy Ruedrich.

“I’m forced to withhold information from Alaskans, and that goes against what I believe in as a public servant,” Pa lin said in a Friday interview.

The story was originally published in 2004. So I wonder what the P alin supporters say about this? Oh don’t bother, we already know that they will find one excuse after another to explain this away

Thats stupid. He should introduce a law to ban all complaints against the women as bias and racist and allow reverse contempt of court in all cases found inadmissible with jail time mandatory.

Lynn argued that, currently, "an unsubstantiated complaint can be all over the newspaper, TV, and talk radio before it's even investigated. That's not fair. It invites frivolous complaints by people with a political agenda, wasting public money and the time of everybody involved."

Does Whitewater ring a bell? Fifty million plus dollars and all we got was a dirty blue dress.

If the honorable governor of Alaska (or her surrogates) wants her ethics problems "kept private" she should not have become an elected official.

We NEED to KNOW what Sarah Palin is doing ALL the time. She is ALWAYS involved in too much HANKEY-PANKEY. If she wants her privacy let her retire from public life.

[JiminNC]

After all her inaccurate and misinformed spew about the first ammendment, her pals want to pass a law limiting (by the Alaska government) free speech (of the people)? I wonder how that will fare at the supreme court? Let's keep her accusers quiet so others who may have pertinent information will not be able to come forward and present it. Right...

[GrandGuignol]

Who is Sarah Palin?

[ywcachieve]

bwahahahahahahahaha

[NoSillyName]

Why? Oh, the GOP's idea.

We know Spalin has NO ethics, so why bother trying o hide it?

[BILLHICKSPINNING]

oh jeez,eh?

[pk4obama]

I was having such a good day and reading the news here, and yet there another story on Palin. SERIOUSLY - WHO CARES? SHE GETS WAY TOO MUCH FACE TIME; the msm is feeding her need to be famous. Ain't gonna happen Snow lady.....

[zezel]

Who is more deperate to be on TV... Palin or Obama? That's right even Bill Maher said Obama needs to get off the tube and get to work.

Rep. Lynn plans to introduce a law declaring Palin to be be really extra smart and to possess a an encyclopediac knowledge of government and history also.

[Freesia2]

and too? ;-)

[Bloggerrogr]

"...and to..." Dennis has it grammatically correct

[ywcachieve]

Good God Almighty! This woman must be a walking breathing ethics violator, that they have to write a new law for her....bwa­hahahahaha­haha

[barackobama4prez]

The idea that they would write a BILL for Sarah says to me that she is probably purposely trying to hide some unethical shiit.

[NickConrad]

Ironically, this is the first time in the umpteen times Palin has cited the first amendment in which the first amendment actually applies. The Government can't just make a law to shut your mouth. On top of that, how ethical is it, really, to censor ethics complaints?

[roshni]

why? Ethical complaints have to do with the public and if she is so ethically challenged, have her resign. She does not get a pass for having nice legs and being extra corrupt.
