Sliming Palin
False Internet claims and rumors fly about McCain's running mate.

Summary
We've been flooded for the past few days with queries about dubious
Internet postings and mass e-mail messages making claims about
McCain's running mate, Gov. Palin. We find that many are completely
false, or misleading.

Palin did not cut funding for special needs education in Alaska by 62
percent. She didn't cut it at all. In fact, she tripled per-pupil
funding over just three years.

She did not demand that books be banned from the Wasilla library. Some
of the books on a widely circulated list were not even in print at the
time. The librarian has said Palin asked a "What if?" question, but
the librarian continued in her job through most of Palin's first term.

Maybe she should start a website to deal with false claims and rumors, as
Sen Obama has had to do to deal with lies and innuendo thrown his way.Just
take, for example, how people will take remarks he has made and create
statements he didnt make (like the one I responded to today) or this one..

Anybody who'd attempt to ban books
doesn't belong in public office.

Obviously you have had a drink of the liberal Kool-Aid and do not get
truth!
Sarah Palin never attempted to ban books...that is a liberal attempt
at smear and distortion of facts!

This is a great take on how to STOP using the "Gender Card" in the
context of Republican vice presidential nominee Gov. Sarah Palin -

You obviously have a difficult time with facts. It's been well documented.

Of course, being in denial is key to being a McCain supporter.
