Tell Me They're Joking, Part II

Wha...whaaaaaaattt?

They're effing kidding, right?

The great State of Alaska (aka The Russian Front) launched an investigation into whether or not Governor Sarah Palin abused her power in having her ex-brother-in-law fired from his State Trooper position. The report issued today concludes that she did just that.

However, to nip that little problem in the bud, the McCain campaign issued its own report that proved, without a shadow of a doubt, that Palin acted ethically throughout.

Trying to head off a potentially embarrassing state ethics report on GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, campaign officials released their own report Thursday that clears her of any wrongdoing.

Excuse me? Can you really do that? Can you really just issue your own report clearing yourself of wrongdoing on a controversial issue? I suppose if you can show that the report was prepared by a truly impartial party.

McCain spokesman Taylor Griffin, who distributed the campaign's report, said it was written by the McCain-Palin campaign staff and based on public filings and Todd Palin's affidavit.

OK, so much for that. No conflicts of interest there!

Just how stupid do they think we are?
