"Who will rid me of this meddlesome priest?"
The assassination of Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, follows.
http://www.eyewitnesstohistory.com/becket.htmThe taped conversation of Bailey (Palin aide)is clear evidence of
an abuse of office, possibly criminal conspiracy. any reasonable
public employee would understand from the exchange that:
1) the govenor wanted Wooten fired to help her sister and damage Wooten
in a custody case.
2) the goveonr was being PERSONALLY inconvenienced (by having to testify -
but could also be understood as the cover pretext) and would be personally
displeased with anyone who failed act to remove the stone in her shoe (Wooten).
3) that the govenor didn't care whether the firing was legal or not, only that
it was done.
If Palin's aide Bailey was doing Palin's bidding, Palin should be removed from office.
If Bailey was not doing Palin's bidding, (oh, puleease!), and wasn't fired, Palin should
be removed from office.
If Palin has reviewed what Bailey did and has ratified, endorsed, or defended what he did
then Palin should be removed from office.
This glimse of public corruption in the Palin administration tied personally to Sarah Palin
is very disturbing. Removal from office is proper. The criminal charges should also be considered by a
special prosecutor.A contempt of court could also be examined by the family law judge. Did Sarah and Todd Palin know it was illegal? Do they know that armed robbery
is illegal? Do they imagine pleading ignorance of the law should excuse them?
Abuse of office is a serious matter. It is not a game. It is not
amusing, it is public corruption, the public should not have to endure it,
no public employee should endure it, and it is not to be allowed under
our system of government.
