First, the lie of the day--recall that Palin, after offering various different reasons for firing Public Safety Commissioners (including one version that she didn't actually fire him), this week, Palin's lawyer offered:
quote:
"The last straw," her lawyer argued, came when he planned a trip to Washington, D.C., to seek federal funds for an aggressive anti-sexual-violence program. The project, expected to cost from $10 million to $20 million a year for five years, would have been the first of its kind in Alaska, which leads the nation in reported forcible rape.
This was echoed in a press release from the McCain/Palin campaign.
Unfortunately, those silly little paper trails always catch up with you. That trip was
actually authorized by the governor's office.
Yesterday, unlike Biden, Palin refused to contradict the Cheney position that the VP is not part of the
executive branch and therefore not subject to executive orders.
Lying, hindering investigations, refusing to respond to subpeonas, thinking your office exists outside any legal scrutiny--sounds more like Cheney every day.
