Soooo...going by the guy who set up the fund, Palin's lawyer gave him the go ahead to SEND HIM the money...but Palin's spokesperson says neither Palin OR her attorney can accept money from such a fund???
http://www.themudflats.net/2009/04/10/legal-defense-fund-goes-rogue-a-post-from-the-netherworld/Remember last night when we learned of Sarah Palin’s Legal Defense Fund? Not the official one, but the unofficial still (they promise) totally really really legal one? When you read that post, were you thinking, ”Methinks the gentleman doth protest too much?” Did it seem to not be quite….kosher?
Well, Palin spokesperson Meg Stapleton tells us that the governor can’t and won’t accept any money from this new fund. It is, apparently a ROGUE fund…. (hands over mouth) which, she claims, was set up without her knowledge by Clayton Paslay. Who is Clayton Paslay? Some guy who owns a U-Haul dealership in Texas,
and says he was inspired by Bill O’Reilly to get all “community organizer” and set up this fund to help.“It’s not official.
Neither the governor nor her attorney can accept monies from a group like this. There is one that is in the process of being established,” said Palin spokeswoman Meg Stapleton.And what does the gentleman have to say for himself?
“I did this at the suggestion of Fox News, Paslay said.He said he has never talked to Palin because he can’t get through to her.
But a few days ago he spoke briefly with Palin’s Anchorage attorney, Thomas Van Flein. Paslay said the attorney “was in a rush” but didn’t object to the fund. He said they agreed donations could be sent directly to the attorney.
