You really don't know quite as much as you'd like everyone here to believe you do, do you?
;-\
Honestly, do you have a reading comprehension problem? Do you not understand the concept of combatant control?
Governors do not wield ANY operational command authority of national guard assets that are engaged in sovereign security missions. EVER. Irrespective of where those sovereign security assets are domiciled, the governor has NOTHING to do with their deployment in national missions. Nothing.
No matter how much you want to make it so, governors are NOT the "commander-in-chief" of ANY asset that is tasked to a national sovereignty mission.
As for the rest of your diatribe, you forgot to put those statements in the past-tense. Sarah Palin no longer possesses any security clearance. She lost it the day she quit. She no longer receives any national security briefings. Those stopped the day she quit.
"What U.S. governor has a higher classified security rating than any candidate for the Democrat Party?"
Sarah Palin NEVER had a higher classified security rating than any of the 2008 candidates for the Democrat Party, nor would she have enjoyed a higher rating than any of the current Republican candidates that hold federal office. Why? Because Governors do not have operational control, nor do they have any federal oversight responsibility, so they are never privy to operational secrets except for the ones that happen within their state. Of course, every governor receives DHS and other counter-terrorism briefs, but there's nothing special about the state of Alaska.
Again, some of the crap you people come up with is AMAZING.
The 49th Missile Defense Battalion is on permanent active duty as a component of the 100th Missile Defense Brigade with HQ in Colorado.
Palin never was its commander. No matter how much you wish that this were not true, it is. She had no more control or influence over the operation of this unit than any civilian did.
