The man overseeing the investigation, Sen. Hollis French, is the bald guy near the back (fifth from left, by the Obama 08 posters). Any doubts about this hacks objectivity yet?
Well, it gets better. Last week, for obvious reasons, Rep. John Coghill asked the Alaska Legislative Council to remove French from the probe. Coghills request was rejected:
On Monday, the head of the Legislative Council turned down his request. Democratic Sen. Kim Elton responded that he is sure that partisan politics can be kept out of the probe.
You know whats coming, right? Senator Elton is also in the picture. Hes the tall bearded guy on the far left (ahem) of the photo. His Alaska State Legislature web page can be found here.
So, there it is. The guy overseeing the troopergate investigation and the man charged with keeping him honest are both proud Obama partisans. If ever there was a put up job, folks, this is it.
Meanwhile, just in case French and Elton need some help ginning up October surprises, the Dems have sent a small army of oppo research creeps to drill for dirt. What could make anyone vote for such people?
Bump! Great stuff!
Didn't the trooper also shoot at his son-in-law or stepson?
Cheers!
Great find!

I posted this earlier today. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2078644/posts
It was discussed on Fox earlier today with Shep. Read the transcript and listen to the YouTube.
SMITH: Molly, we understand you have some new information about the so-called Governor Palin Troopergate case. First give us a back story on that case if you can and tell us whats up now.
HENNEBERG: Right, Troopergate is the investigation into when Sarah Palin as governor if as her critics say, she fired her public safety commissioner because he wouldnt in turn fire a state trooper, who was Palins ex-brother-in-law. Some Democrats and her critics are saying she was involved here and may have abused her power, but the McCain campaign today is out with a new picture of the three lead state legislators who are investigating this whole Troopergate, and it shows the three of them at Obama headquarters in Anchorage, Alaska in July, which the McCain campaign says shows the whole investigation is politically tainted and compromised, something you will hear more from the McCain campaign as the investigation continues.
There ought to be something to do about this leftard tactic of trumping up false allegations.
The Obamanators are going to wish they did not use French and Elton in the presser below (weeks before they had any idea that Sarah Palin would be the VP nominee), because now Hollis French and Kim Elton are inextricably tied to the Obama campaign as strong supporters and not merely as two Democrats among many.
Hollis French and Kim Elton did not merely pose for that photo, they are leading, trusted supporters of Obama who were quoted by the campaign in a major PR on Obama's "energy plan" -- so they are definitely very trusted Obamanators, or else the campaign never would have given them such prominence in an official press release.
This so-called "investigation" is clearly nothing but Obama hackery. These Moonbats must be stopped in their vicious tracks.

Obama campaign press release (July 30, 2008):
ALASKA ELECTED OFFICIALS RALLY BEHIND OBAMAS ENERGY PLAN
Obama supports Alaska gas pipeline
JUNEAU, AK Today in Juneau, state representatives and senators from across Alaska gathered to rally behind Barack Obama and discuss his plan to address record-high energy prices that are straining Alaskans budgets and hurting the Alaska economy.
Senator Obama has a plan to end our dependence on foreign oil and reduce skyrocketing energy prices, said Senator Hollis French of Anchorage, a former oil rig worker. Having worked in the oil business in Alaska for twelve years, I know firsthand the importance of oil and natural gas to Alaska. Senator Obama will not only invest in renewable fuels and increase car fuel efficiency standards, he strongly supports construction of an Alaska natural gas pipeline and accelerated drilling in the Alaska National Petroleum Reserve which will provide affordable energy to Alaska and our country and good jobs for Alaskans.
Rural Alaskans have been especially hard-hit by skyrocketing energy prices and the faltering economy, said Representative Mary Nelson of Bethel. Barack Obama understands the energy challenges they face, and he will work as president to lower energy costs and get our economy back on track. Senator Obama will be a fighter for rural Alaska.
High gas and energy prices are squeezing Alaskans harder than anyone else in the US, Senator Kim Elton of Juneau said. We need a president who will work to make Alaska resources part of our countrys energy solution. Barack Obama has long been a supporter of Alaska energy priorities like the Alaska natural gas pipeline. Hell work as president to invest in Alaskas energy future and make Alaska part of the answer.
