My guess is that he thought his friends in the legislature and the union would protect him, no matter what he did. The real question is why he protected the scumbag?
What an excellent opportunity for Palin to PROVE the pitbull remark.
This is great!
"Sadly, yes, I do," he said, citing the July 17, 2007, e-mail as the sort of tacit pressure he said he received repeatedly from Palin and her husband.
So he has changed his story from his previous statements to the contrary.
So happy to see this out of Gov Palin. Monegan attacked Gov Palin’s reason for his quitting but she was supposed to take it and not fire back.
Monegan and the Dems opened up a can of worms on this one! Hope it was worth it to Monegan to sell out to the Obama campaign.
Looks like Gov Palin taking on the good old boy network caused some of the problems. Wish more Governors like in OK would have the courage to take on the good old boy network but our current Governor is part of the network.
And another Obama lie blows up in his face.
Well buddy, if you’re such a “Team Player” as you say, then I guess that press conference you held with French doesn’t exist, right?
I see what is going on here, some sexist good old boy wasn’t going to be told what to do by some @(*#@!!
And so he bucked her at every turn.
This man has also been accused of spousal abuse, and threatening to kill his ex wife.
Jerk.
If McCain loses this election, Palin will be heading back to good ole Alaska as the GOVERNOR of the state. If I were Monegan, I would STFU and wish Palin a huge victory and If I were Palin and had to head back to Alaska as GOVERNOR, I would make a top priority of cleaning out the swamp in the Public Safety ranks and finish the job I had started...
Most CEOs (men and women) and heads of government would fire people like this and not blink an eye.
This guy was just one man. It doesn't compare to Clinton firing all the U.S. Attorneys and putting in his henchmen in their places, but of course the Boston Globe isn't about to mention that inconvenient truth.
