ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- Another ethics complaint has been filed against Gov. Sarah Palin, alleging she abused her office by accepting a salary and used state staff while campaigning as the Republican vice presidential candidate last year.

It's the 18th ethics complaint filed against Palin, and the third since Palin announced her resignation July 3.

In her resignation speech, Palin cited the complaints as taking a personal toll and crippling her ability to govern effectively.

She officially steps down July 26.

The latest complaint was filed Monday and is the fifth by outspoken Palin critic Andree McLeod of Anchorage. Three of McLeod's grievances have been dismissed and another remains active.

Andree MacLeud is pissed that Sarah refused to put her in her administration. Don’t worry Andree, when Sarah becomes President, you can grovel to her and try again, then what will Sarah do, kick you in the face again HAHA. I’d pay good money to see that

I wish that the people that file these baseless complaints had to pay the cost of investigation and defending against it.

Looking ahead and looking forward to it!

I’m shocked somebody hasn’t actually filed a complaint against her for resigning.

This is a sword that can cut both ways.

Any Democrats still in Alaska?

Why doesn’t some organization begin attacking this McLeod person legally? Surely a PI or two would turn something up.

I mean, this is what they do - what on earth is preventing us from using the legal system against her as well?

And how many days did Obama show up for work in 2008?

Or senator or sitting president?

Seems to me they all do it. What’s so different about Palin?

Andree McLeod place of birth: Beirut, Lebanon.

Maybe Palin is the most convenient target for McLeod's anti-Christian/anti-Zionist bigotry.

Because unlike McLeod, we have lives.

Don't give them any ideas -- they just might do that.

Is there anybody in Alaska with some intestinal fortitude, time and money to return the legal favors to this conglomeration of viable tissue abortion survivalist called Andree McLeod?

Regards.

Here's a photo of the noxious snot-goblin (GUILTY!):

And some background:

"McLeod said she worked for the state off and on for decades, most recently as Alaska Workforce Investment Board manager. She was appointed to the job by former Gov. Frank Murkowski, she said.

"Palin said McLeod has asked her for an appointment too. As head of the Alaska Public Offices Commission -- the state campaign finance watchdog agency, for example.

"'This is the same Andree McLeod that follows us around at public events and camps herself out in our waiting area and hounds us for a job, asking us if there's a way she can go around Workplace Alaska and not have to go through the system to get a job with this administration,' Palin said.

"The e-mails McLeod used in her complaint are among four banker boxes full of papers she got through a public records request for e-mails between members of the governor's staff."
