			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been looking over the <a title="Read &quot;Palin accuses Monegan of insubordination&quot; at adn.com." href="http://www.adn.com/front/v-printer/story/527346.html" target="_blank">response</a> filed by Thomas Van Flein, the attorney for Governor Palin, filed with the Alaska Personal Board yesterday. It seems clear to me that she had ample reason to fire her Public Safety Commissioner, Walt Monegan.</p>
<p>The filling makes it clear that Palin and her staff had become frustrated by Monegan&#8217;s conduct. The final straw seems to a planned trip to Washington, D.C., to seek funding for a new, multimillion-dollar sexual assault initiative the governor hadn&#8217;t yet approved.</p>
<p>Ed Morrissey has the complete filing and analysis at <a title="Read &quot;Palin fires back in Troopergate, releases memos showing insubordination&quot; at hotair.com." href="http://hotair.com/archives/2008/09/16/palin-fires-back-in-troopergate-releases-memos-showing-insubordination/" target="_blank">Hotair.com</a>.</p>
<p>For complete background on so called Troopergate visit Floppingaces.net. MataHarley has done extensive research on the story. Her latest is <a title="Read &quot;Latest in Trooper’gate: PSEA complaint specifics… Special Asst AG may block legislative subpoenas&quot; at floppingaces.net." href="http://www.floppingaces.net/2008/09/15/latest-in-troopergate-psea-complaint-specifics-special-asst-ag-may-block-legislative-subpoenas/" target="_blank">here</a>. A complete history of posts can be found <a title="Visit Floppingaces.net's Troopergate archive." href="http://www.floppingaces.net/category/politics/sarah-palin-politics/troopergate/" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Update:</strong> The AP is reporting that <a title="Read &quot;GOP lawmakers sue to stop Palin investigation&quot; at examiner.com." href="http://www.examiner.com/a-1590326~GOP_lawmakers_sue_to_stop_Palin_investigation.html" target="_blank">five republican state legislator&#8217;s filed suit to stop the legistature&#8217;s investigation</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Update:</strong> Just to add to the confusion Amanda Carpenter @ <a title="Read &quot;TrooperGate Investigator Sued&quot; at Townhall.com." href="http://townhall.com/Columnists/AmandaCarpenter/2008/09/16/troopergate_investigator_sued" target="_blank">Townhall.com</a> is reporting that a group of Alaskan residents has filed <a href="http://media.adn.com/smedia/2008/09/16/11/Branchflower_Complaint__Summons-Filed.source.prod_affiliate.7.pdf" target="_blank">suit</a> against Stephen Branchflower… The suit alleges the investigation is unconstitutional and asks a judge to stop it.</p>
