Palin is being investigated for her decision to fire police commissioner Walt Monegan. It is alleged she fired him because he refused to fire a state trooper who was divorced from her sister.
At a press conference called to contend the allegations, Palin said she fired him because of incompetence. But two weeks before, she said the exact opposite when telling the media she had offered him a job because of his competence.
The core issue for the firing was his lack of experience in alcohol control, but in fact she offered him a job as Director of the Alcohol Beverage Control Board which shows that she clearly does not think he is weak at rural alcohol abuse and bootlegging issues.
This video actually is pretty interesting as it shows she changes her story within weeks, and the first clip is before the personal problems had begun. So far, the national media apparently has not discovered this video, as it has not been reported on by a major news organization.
It goes to the heart of the Troopergate scandal because it shows Palin is not being honest about why she fired Monegan.
