There's nothing wrong with Todd Palin competing in the Iron Dog or taking money from his sponsors. There's nothing wrong with Todd Palin having his own webpage with links to whatever interests him. But...
Let's recap: from the official Alaska Government website you are 4 clicks away from Todd Palin's sponsors. Neat!
Oops! Another little ethics headache for Sarah Palin?
Hat tip to UQ!

If this doesn't inspire another ethics complaint, I don't know what would. This is a very clear violation. Better save those links - they may be scrubbed soon.
Whoa! Great catch.
The official State of Alaska website links directly to a sponsor that pays money (or products) to Sarah and Todd.
Sweet deal!!!!
I personally don't see an ethics issue here. In a sense, it's information to the citizenship that Todd Palin's activities are supported by some company. This is a lot different than Palin wearing Arctic Cat clothing when she's acting in her official capacity (which as we know is 24/7).
So ... tell me again, WHY is First Dud even on the State Website?
Was he elected?
Why is he privy to STATE confidential business?
Face it, there really is a huge ethical dilemma in the Gov's office. If she chooses to share info with her hubs, that is one thing. But this gives the appearance that Alaska elected a "first couple".
Perhaps he will "off with her head" and take over? Doubtful - he appears to be lacking a pair.
...gee, thanks Gunner for your mighty fine professional opinion!
'every previous'
...your knowledge is underwhelming
Gunner is obviously a Palinista ... a good old C4Peer. I'd say he was a professional troll but even she wouldn't pay 5c a post to a guy who can't form a sentence.
Oh right...sorry.
Gunner is mentally I'll. Only a truly disturbed person would say that to others they don't agree with. Poor thing needs her medicine
Being named "Gunner", he's probably also in the NRA. Watch out, he could come after us from a helicopter!
I think this is a good catch. The thing is at this point, Palin should be watching out for herself. She needs an "Ethics Task Force" lol. She is under fire - memo to Palin and to Gunner - Alaskans DON'T LIKE THEIR GOVERNOR. That is the real crux of the matter here. So when there is an ethics boundary that is crossed by Palin, it WILL be explored. Palin is "in the sights" of her constituency. Even you, Gunner, should be able to understand that terminology.
