Sex for Oil Scandal: Randall Luthi/Sarah Palin Link?

[justiceischeap]

Apparently Mr. Luthi worked hand in hand with Palin up thar in Alaska. I wonder if there's more to this. Could this be the real scandal to bring her down?

I'd love to see some of the DU researchers dig up some dirt on this if there's any to dirt to find.

“We received excellent comments from Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, North Slope Borough Mayor Edward Itta, from other community and tribal leaders, and industry and environmental groups. We believe our decision is a good balance, and will allow companies to explore this intriguing frontier area while still protecting the resources important to the coastal residents,” said MMS Director Randall Luthi. “All leases will be subject to MMS’s existing regulations that include extensive requirements for safety, drilling operations, and pollution prevention, plus regulations of other agencies protecting marine mammals, endangered species, and air and water quality.”

1. THIS could sink her for sure... if there is corruption tied directly to her(Another Agnew?)

That $500mil she got the State of Alaska to give to TransCanada to build a pipeline(which they already wanted to build) just does not smell right.

If there is evidence she or Todd benefitted from that action, she is done.

Even if she merely received gifts of $$ from oil companies in exchange for her official acts on their behalf, that should do it as well.

2. We just need to find that link 'cause you know it's there.

If the corruption was as deep and widespread as it was, we just need someone to find it.
