I think you also have to look at motivations. What motivations would drive the former McCain campaign to lie at this point? It's a dead organization that lost an election, and there is no phoenix-like resurrection in the cards. Palin, on the other hand, still harbors ambitions, and lying to present her best image would server her well.
Are u stupid? Those people have jobs, and they want to be employed by other campaigns in the near future, they would most certainly defend their own credibility, and it's not like they haven't leaked damaging things about Sarah Palin in the past after the election aftermath.Quote:

Another huge lie from pitbull bitch:
Palin's Oily Lies Drip from the Pages of Going Rogue...
I know facts aren't going to matter to many people buying Sarah Palin's, Going Rogue. Facts certainly didn't matter to folks who voted for her.
According to the "fact checkers":PALIN: Welcomes last year's Supreme Court decision deciding punitive damages for victims of the nation's largest oil spill tragedy, the Exxon Valdez disaster, stating it had taken 20 years to achieve victory. As governor, she says, she'd had the state argue in favor of the victims, and she says the court's ruling went "in favor of the people." Finally, she writes, Alaskans could recover some of their losses.When Sarah Palin was asked by Katie Couric what Supreme Court decisions other than Roe v Wade she disagreed with, she couldn't think of one. NOT ONE! Sarah squandered an opportunity-the perfect chance to tell America our story...an Alaskan story...dozens of suicides...thousands sick from clean up...tens of thousands bankrupt from a dead fishery.
THE FACTS: That response is at odds with her reaction at the time to the ruling, which resolved the long-running case by reducing punitive damages for victims to $500 million from $2.5 billion. Environmentalists and plaintiffs' lawyers decried the ruling as a slap at the victims and Palin herself said she was "extremely disappointed." She said the justices had gutted a jury decision favoring higher damage awards, the Anchorage Daily News reported. "It's tragic that so many Alaska fishermen and their families have had their lives put on hold waiting for this decision," she said, noting many had died "while waiting for justice."

Sarah Palin is to Alaska what Velveeta is to cheese; sadly unsatisfying and empty of nutrition. She had the national stage to plead Alaska's case to citizens who had long forgotten the images of a once pristine Prince William Sound turned into a thick, black, rolling sea; the oiled sea otters and birds; unrecognizable seals and whales; an initially deformed and diseased herring run that became extinct-costing Cordova $100 million a year. Exxon exploited Alaska and turned pain into profit.
AND NOW, Palin is claiming to be part of a victory for the people of Alaska? Reality Deficit Disorder...now in book form.
The Exxon Shipping Co. v. Baker Supreme Court decision in June 2008 all but pardoned Exxon's negligence. The highest court in the land condoned the half-assed cleanup. (my radio interview on the day of the ruling with Greg Palast). Exxon, the company that set and broke planet earth's quarterly profit record three quarters in a row, was let off the hook. Because of this unprecedented landmark decision, future corporate punitive damages are now forever minimally capped at literally pennies on the dollar!
The Roberts Court based its activist ruling on 19th century maritime law. Really! 21st century corporations can now view punitive damages as the small cost of doing business. Due to Exxon's negligence and the corporate sympathy of the Supreme Court, one the largest acts of environmental terrorism in history was treated like an accidental littering. The RATS-Roberts, Alito, Thomas and Scalia, (Alito recused himself, confident that Souter and Kennedy would fill the business-friendly void) winked at their corporate masters as the Judas Court betrayed Justice.

Exxon doesn't have marked offices in Alaska. There are some pretty hard feelings even 20 years later...for some pretty good reasons. When Palin was pointing fingers at Letterman in July of this year, she did it from Houston, Texas. She was there to sign a deal with Exxon on behalf of Alaska. The state's willingness to do business with Exxon was like having your parents rent the basement to the guy who date raped you on prom night. Am I clear?
So Sarah was against the decision before she couldn't remember it before she was for it. And now, courtesy of Going Rogue, Sarah Palin manages to insult and injure Alaskans who will never be made whole with yet another one of her documented lies.
The jury originally punished Exxon with $5 billion in punitive damages-a year's profit at the time. In 2008, nearly 20 years later, Exxon reported the largest annual profit in US history at $45.22 billion. The company shattered its own record set the previous year. Would the original $5 billion in punitive damages been punishment enough? The answer is now slowly dripping onto victims at 10 cents on the dollar.
Opening your mailbox to an Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Settlement check is like getting a royalty payment for the snuff film your kid brother was in. Hey, you're getting paid...but he's still dead and you got to watch.
===========
For you pitbull bitch sniffers and lickers, there are incriminating videos of pitbull pitch spinning her lies.

It's so easy kicking pitbull bitch while she's down, but it's still as much fun as watching her, Kristol, Limbaugh, Hannity, Fox Political Channel rip apart the Repug party into even deeper insignificance.
Wow...
She only unhappy with the decision because the award is not high enough. So when she says she's happy that people do get money, you guys make fun of her?
What a stretch.
If she said she was unhappy with the decision itself, then the Huff Poo would have spun it differently, still making her look bad to people with a low enough IQ to believe that rag.
"According to a Washington Post/ABC News poll, a majority of Americans don't like her that much, and very few would vote for her if she absurdly ran for President.
The poll reveals that 52 percent see the former governor in unfavorable terms.
Only 9 percent say they would definitely vote for her if she were a candidate for President in 2012.
53 percent said they would definitely not vote for her.
According to the Washington-Post/ABC analysis of the poll, about half as many Americans said they would definitely not vote for John McCain in Spring 2006.
There's a lesson in this for Palin and the GOP; that lesson is obviously that only 9 percent of Americans really love America."
9% ? that's about the right size for the astroturf/tea-bag/losers fringe.
I thought this women was a non factor. Errr-right.
Your right, we HOPE she gets the nomination in 2012.Quote:

Top 4 Energy and Environmental Lies in Sarah Palin's 'Going Rogue'
By Brian Merchant, TreeHugger
Posted on November 16, 2009, Printed on November 16, 2009

Well, that didn't take long. Sarah Palin's hotly anticipated memoir, Going Rogue, is hardly out the gates, and it's already facing a torrent of criticism from mainstream news sources for including various untruths and flat out lies. It appears that everyone's favorite vice presidential candidate has gone rogue with some of the facts. Naturally, a great deal of these focus on energy and the environment--the former subject of which she is allegedly an expert on, and the other on which she's got some highly controversial views. Here are the top whoppers Palin tries to sneak by her readers.
1. The poor will be hit hardest by clean energy legislation.
In her book, Palin falsely charges once again that people in low income groups will suffer at the hands of the climate bill. From Media Matters:Palin: Obama "admitted" cap and trade will cause "electricity bills to 'skyrocket' " and "those hit hardest will be those who are already struggling to make ends meet." Palin falsely suggests that "those hit hardest [by cap and trade] will be those who are already struggling to make ends meet" and that " She added: "So much for the campaign promise not to raise taxes on anyone making less than $250,000 a year. This is a tax on everyone." [Going Rogue, Pages 390-391]Not. Much of the revenue from a cap and trade will go towards providing a buffer for the poor in the form of tax rebates. The CBO has found that by as soon as 2020, low income families will actually besaving $125 a month on electricity bills.
2. Obama has "admitted that the policy he seeks will cause our electricity bills to 'skyrocket.'"
Wrong again--Obama has never "admitted" any such thing. As noted by MM, "Obama was talking about a different plan causing energy costs to "skyrocket." As the Associated Press noted in fact-checking Palin's book, Obama was not talking about the cap-and-trade legislation that has since passed in the House when he referred to energy costs "necessarily skyrocket[ting]." He was actually talking about a hypothetical version of any cap and trade system that would auction off 100% of the emissions permits (the version that passed the house gives nearly all of them away for free), and was discussing no particular piece of legislation.
3. She vetoed Alaska stimulus funds for energy efficiency because they mandated building codes.
This one has already been proven false, yet she repeats the debunked logic in her book. Once again, MM:Palin claims that she vetoed a $25 million "earmark for energy conservation" available through the stimulus because Alaska would have needed to adopt "universal energy building codes" to be eligible for the funds. "Universal building codes -- in Alaska! A practical, libertarian haven full of independent Americans who did not desire 'help' from government busybodies. A state full of hardy pioneers who did not like taking orders from the feds telling us to change our laws. A state so geographically diverse that one-size-fits-all codes simply wouldn't work." [Going Rogue, Pages 361-362]Of course it wouldn't work--made-up rules tend not to. The rebuttal, via PoliFact: "municipalities are not forced to accept the specific standards and, given that local governments set their own codes, the feds would be satisfied if Alaska merely promoted such building codes." Woops. And PolitiFact also notes that a Department of Energy official "wrote that the provision 'provides flexibility with regard to building codes' and 'expressly includes standards other than those cited so long as the standards achieve equivalent energy savings.' " Sigh.
4. She never supported aerial wolf hunting
This is another one that's just patently false. On page 327 of her book, Palin says that aerial wolf hunting is something that "Alaskan's don't do." And yet, she actually signed a bill validating aerial hunting. MM says: "In 2007, Palin introduced a bill to "simplify and clarify Alaska's intensive management law for big game and the state's 'same day airborne hunting' law." Enough said.
This obsession is quite impressive.
When someone says something like that once, like you have 12 fingers on your hand. Its called a slip of the tongue. But when you repeatedly show stupidity about general knowledge and try to sound smart at the same time...Quote:
