Sarah Palin refused to cooperate with a Republican-dominated legislative panel investigating her allegedly improper firing of the Public Safety commissioner — even after it was revealed that she lied on the record about the matter — but now says she will meet with the Personnel Board, all of whom report to her:

Less than a week after balking at the Alaska Legislature’s investigation into her alleged abuse of power, Gov. Sarah Palin on Monday indicated she will cooperate with a separate probe run by people she can fire.

The State Personnel Board is “a three-member panel appointed by the governor. Panel members can be fired by the governor for cause. Two members are holdovers from the previous [Republican] governor and Palin reappointed the third.”

You can sure tell that Bush operatives are running Palin’s campaign.
