Playing fuck-fuck with democracy

Oh, those wacky Republicans! Always accusing others of precisely those sins they are most guilty of!

Lawmaker Seeks Removal of Peer Leading Palin Probe - washingtonpost.com
The Alaska lawmaker leading an investigation into Gov. Sarah Palin's dismissal of her public safety commissioner should be removed because he appears to be manipulating the probe to damage her vice presidential candidacy, a Republican legislator said.

Alaska state Sen. Hollis French (D) "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 wrote in a letter to the chairman of the Alaska Legislature's legislative council.
The goal here is clear: throw enough Sabots into the machinery to - yes - sabotage the investigation and delay any outcome until well after the election.
