And NOW is the time to do it, when the media will pick up ANY news about $arah. One would hope that just the threat of a lawsuit would make the state stop dragging its feet.

The delay is already so absurd that I suspect Andree will have to sue the state to obtain compliance. I'm good for $50.

But, let's be honest.... most people don't give a crap. We deserve who we elect. The state would release the emails if the people of Alaska stood together and demanded it.

I strongly object to yet another extension. It’s been well over a year since I submitted my public record request. The Alaska Public Records Act mandates a 10-day turn-around for public records request. These continuous extensions are totally unacceptable and outrageous! I understand Sean Parnell ordered his staff to purge anything and everything from the governor’s office that had to do with Sarah Palin upon taking office this past July. If it’s good enough for Sean Parnell to have closure with things that relate to Sarah Palin in his office, it follows that the people who submitted public record requests re: Sarah Palin’s tenure in the governor’s office should have closure as well. Why are Sean Parnell and Dan Sullivan protecting and defending an ex-governor who quit on Alaskans when their sworn duty is to protect Alaskans and the public’s best interests? Why do Sean Parnell and Dan Sullivan want to keep secrets about the Palin/Parnell administration? What is the (Palin)/Parnell/Campbell administration hiding from the public? Shame on every public official who is involved in this ill-crafted scheme to thwart public records laws and breach the intent of the AK Public Records Act. Sincerely, Andrée McLeod Here is my reply to Linda Perez’s request for an extension:
