Liberals are dishonest people….
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A Republican lawmaker wants the Democrat overseeing an investigation into Gov. Sarah Palin’s dismissal of her public safety commissioner removed because he seems intent on damaging her vice presidential candidacy.
Democratic state Sen. Hollis French “appears to be steering the direction of the investigation, its conclusion and its timing in a manner that will have maximum partisan political impact on the national and state elections,” state Rep. John Coghill said in a letter dated Friday.
Coghill, from North Pole, is on the Alaska Legislature’s Legislative Council, the body that appointed French to oversee the investigation. The letter was sent to the council chairman, Sen. Kim Elton, D-Juneau, whom Coghill asks to convene a meeting to discuss whether French should be replaced.
Coghill said the council instructed French, an Anchorage Democrat, to keep politics out of the investigation.
“He just failed that, in my view,” Coghill told The Associated Press Saturday.
