Anchorage Daily News, Colberg files suit to quash TROOPERGATE subpoenas
Anchorage Daily News
Colberg files suit to quash subpoenas:

Alaska Attorney General Talis Colberg is suing to kill subpoenas issued by the state Legislature in its Troopergate investigation of Gov. Sarah Palin.

Colberg filed the complaint Thursday in Anchorage superior court, arguing the state Senate Judiciary Committee lacked authority to issue subpoenas demanding that potential witnesses testify in the investigation. He wants a judge to rule them invalid.

The attorney general's lawsuit against state lawmakers is the first time Palin's executive branch has brought the courts into its war with the legislative branch of government over the investigation. Now that Palin is the Republican nominee for vice president, the stakes are huge.

People here have just gotten rid of the "shaking their heads overbearingly" disease triggered by talking about Bush. Talking about Palin today at work triggered at least 4 symptoms of a return.

Funny thing: One guy that hasn't followed this stuff much and hadn't seen Palin in action said(when shown the Couric interview):
"You know, she reminds me of that Miss Teen US.."
"I know.." :)
(and thats where one of the symptoms surfaced)
