Dairygate floats back onto the horizon.

The Alaska State Commission for Human Rights has ruled that discrimination and wrongful termination complaints filed against Matanuska Creamery by two former employees have merit.
Former creamery office administrator Kay Schaugaard and former pasteurizer Amy Moore, who are both Mormon, allege company co-owner and Chief Financial Officer Karen Olson made disparaging remarks about Mormons and not wanting “any more (expletive) Mormons” working for the company. They also claim co-owner Kyle Beus did not take their discrimination complaints seriously before they were fired more than two years ago.

Schaugaard, who hasn’t bought creamery milk since she was ordered to leave the premises Dec. 5, 2008, said Monday she strongly suspects her termination is directly related to her allegations that company executives misspent federal funds.

Schaugaard said Monday the Federal Bureau of Investigation is conducting an investigation into the alleged funds misuse. When contacted earlier this year, the FBI would neither confirm nor deny such an investigation exists, as is its policy.

“Some of the financial transactions that I was in the process of researching were extremely suspicious,” Schaugaard said Monday. “I couldn’t track where the grant money had been deposited. Kyle Beus and Karen Olson would not give me the data I needed or the answers I needed to make sense of their finances.”

After a 22-month investigation, the Alaska State Commission for Human Rights ruled last week that Schaugaard and Moore have a legitimate case against the company for religious and sexual discrimination.

I have to say that one of the most frustrating parts of watching the slow disintegration of Sarah Palin's reputation, and the end of her political aspirations, is the federal piece.  The Feds simply do NOT move very quickly, and even if there are some slips which alert you to an investigation, NOBODY will tell you anything about it.

However I will say that, if my sources are correct, THIS is not the only Federal investigation which might bite half term celebrity Governor Sarah Palin, and her administration, in the ass.

But don't worry Palin-bots.  All your Queen has to do is add a scene to her propaganda film "The Undefeated" of her running into a burning barn and rescuing still smoldering cows, while her hair and makeup remain completely untouched, to convince the public that she is innocent of any wrongdoing in this case.
