The Palin Report - MSM Distortions

I discuss this in more detail on my blog, but these are the main points:

(1)  The focus of the investigation was supposed to be the propriety of firing of Walt Monegan.  The report concludes that Palin acted properly with regard to that action.

(2) The finding that Sarah Palin abused her power rests almost entirely on Todd Palin’s actions with regard to the perceived failure to discipline Trooper Michael Wooten.  It also has nothing to do with the firing of Walt Monegan.

(3) The report is just that, a report.  Although many 'news' organizations are reporting that the legislature found Palin abused her power, the report is not a finding or any other action by the Legislative Council, let alone the legislature as a whole.

(4) Perhaps most important, the report only makes two recommendations to the Legislative Council. Instead of calling for a resolution to condemn Palin's actions, the report calls for the statutes that caused the Palin family's frustration with the investigation of Wooten to be changed.
