E-mails: Palin moved to tie oil scandal to ousted rival
cnn.com ^ | June 10, 2011 | Matt Smith

Posted on 06/10/2011 1:26:40 PM PDT by Berlin_Freeper

The day after Allen's guilty plea, Palin sent e-mails to staffers asking for information on his ties to her predecessor, Frank Murkowski. Palin had beaten Murkowski in 2006 in a primary battle in which she campaigned as a reformer and backed an unsuccessful 2010 challenge to Murkowski's daughter, U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski.

Aides soon replied that VECO had paid $15,000 to fly Murkowski and Allen to a Council of State Governments meeting in Thailand in 2004. Palin aides also asked Allen to resign from a seat on a state board that cultivated ties with the Canadian province of Alberta, a request to which Allen -- who was later sentenced to three years in prison -- quickly agreed.

Oh boy, here we go. The uttely lamestream media is just frothing at the mouth to did up dirt on Sarah. They truly are the lowest form of bottomfeeders on this planet.

Hey media, when are you going to request emails of your “boy” while he was a senator? (sound of crickets chirping)

Matt Smith, you dolt. You must be so proud of yourself for bottom feeding somebody’s conversations in order to bring them down.

Hope MSMs subscribers drop even lower. And then there is real scandal in the White House, but no one has the time to investigate things that are truly evil?

Ummm. She was right according to the rest of the article. What is wrong with exposing corruption?

The MSM just managed to drag Lisa Murkowski's father's name through the mud. He was more corrupt than we had imagined, and, of course, she is too ~ she's been trying to cover all this stuff up.

Well, it's out there and everybody knows Lisa is a crook.

CNN won’t allow comments on this article. It seems to be the modus oprandi of ‘news’ sources when publishing any information that conservatives can easily defend.

CNN, and other DNC minions, will not allow the full truth to be known on any subject, least the minds of the deluded left be enlightened.

Gov Palin was DOING THE RIGHT THING! This is supposed to the ‘gotcha’ news? Please!!

Palin resigned in July 2009, about 2.5 years into her four-year term, complaining partly about a number of ethics complaints filed by her political opponents.

She wasn't "complaining", she was going broke from all the phony laws suits and couldn't be an effective governor. CNN Hacks!

This is how CNN ends its brief article, trying to make Palin look like a criminal!! Nope...no leftist bias in the media!

It's only wrong when it's a liberal being exposed by a conservative. Never the other way around....

They aren't asking staffers, just the general public. IOW anyone who can dig up dirt for them.
