And here we see the financial implications of ethics — Sarah Palin says that she is more than $500,000 in debt due
to “frivolous” ethics complaints brought against her by her fellow Alaskans
.
No doubt some of these charges are lacking in weight, (one complained that
Palin promoted the sponsor of her husband’s snowmobile team on her jacket; this
complaint was dismissed); but I absolutely love that Alaskan citizens are taking an
active part in their government and asking their leader to answer to any possible ethical missteps.
 
While I’m no fan of Palin, I’m
not interested in this article for partisan or anti-Palin reasons. I really just get excited
when I see people get involved in the world around them — and coupled with the
topic of ethics, well, I’m ecstatic right now.
