Palin is no better judge of character than McCain


There's little doubt Sarah Palin and her family have had a personal vendetta against her ex brother in law Mike Wooten since his marriage to her sister Molly started going sour.

They hired a private investigator to follow him around. A judge in the couple’s custody case  on Oct. 27, 2005, expressed puzzlement about why the family was trying to get Wooten fired, since depriving the trooper of a job would harm his ability to pay family support to Palin's sister. "It appears for the world that Ms. McCann and her family have decided to take off for the guy's livelihood -- that the bitterness of whatever who did what to whom has overridden good judgment," Suddock said in an audio recording from the trial on TV station KTUU's Web site. "

They lodged 36 accusations against Wooten in 2005 alone. Sarah Palin seemed personally obsessed with ending his career.

As we all know by now Palin also alleged that Wooten illegally shot a cow moose, but added that her father butchered the carcass and that she and her family cooked and ate the meat. I wonder if illegally killed mooseburgers are tastier than legally killed ones?

She also claimed that he used a taser on his stepson. The Alaska State Trooper suspension notice for Wooten says he tasered his 10 year old stepson Payton for "training purposes" whatever that means. 

Of all those complaints 11 stuck and Wooten was suspended for 10 days by the Alaska State Troopers which was negotiated down to 5 days by his union. 

Now Mike Wooten sounds like a real creep. He's been married 5 times and is evidently a drunk. Everything I've read about the guy makes him out to be ther kind of loser who enjoys life on the force as a power trip. He also thinks laws are for other people to obey, not him.

But here's what Sarah Palin said about him in writing when as mayor she wrote a letter of recommendation for him when he was looking for work in law enforcement. 

<b>In a Jan. 1, 2000, letter of reference, Palin wrote that if “America had more people with the grace and sincerity that mirrors the character of Mike Wooten...we would have a much kinder, gentler, trustworthy nation as a result. … </b>

<b>“I have witnessed Mike’s gift of calm and kindness toward many young kids here in Wasilla,” said Palin’s Jan. 1, 2000 letter written on City of Wasilla letterhead. “I have never seen him raise his voice, nor lose patience nor become aggitated [sic] in the presence of any child. Instead, Mike consistently remains a fine role model for my own children, and other young people in Wasilla.”</b>

So the question is who ya gonna believe about Mike Wooten? Sarah Palin or Sarah Palin? Because she'll pretty much say anything about anybody depending on whose side she's on at the moment.

There's links to all the docs and  much, much more like how she's apparently slashing the State Police budget in retaliation against her percieved enemies who wouldn't do the Alaska welfare queen's bidding.
