Q: Neither he or Sarah should be able to refuse to talk being that the investigation has been going on before she was picked for vp. To me, his refusal, her refusal tells me that they have something to hide and they don't want it out until after election day. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080919/ap_on_el_pr/palin_troopergate;_ylt=AhL6Tn1t5Lu8zMyPnfdJKMFsnwcF a subpoena was issued for him talk, a subpoena is the conditional threat of punishment made by a governmental authority. It is attached to a command, so that if the recipient does not do as commanded then he may be punished. i know a person has a right to refuse to talk when asked but when subpoenaed i wouldn't be allowed to get out of it, neither should he.
A: CAN YOU SAY "COVER UP" McCain and Palin have been providing us with samples of what a government with them at the head would be. We have McCain not knowing who our enemies are (suni/shia), where they are (his thought that Iraq and Afghanistan share a boarder); when asked if he would meet with Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero in the White House were he elected his first reply was "I would be willing to meet with those leaders who are friends and want to work with us in a cooperative fashion,"; Spain is a NATO ally. Palin said that the fact she can see parts of Russia from Alaska provide her with some form of insight (maybe that's kinda like seeing into Putin's soul - http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=25260); then there are the lies Palin has told with a smile to millions of Americans (http://www.palinlies.info/). Now we have troopergate and McCain and Palin are stone walling the election. Her husband, although never an Alaskan official or employee, was doing government work for her and involved in the pressure tactics used by Palin will also aid in the stonewalling of the investigation. With the use of a little known law in Alaska that bars investigation until after an election they will succeed. At least with stalling that investigation. Even though "1st Dude" has the right not to talk and incriminate himself, by means of the 5th Amendment, he has the obligation to appear and proclaim that right so that it can be documented. But, for those that are undecided consider what the ramifications could be if she is found guilty of abuse of power. The image of the White House potentially could be challenged or tarnished. Consider our dismay as a nation and our embarrassment should that happen; as well as our lost chance to be a world respect country once again. This cannot be allowed to happen.
