    Not trying to be rude but this is the current fallacy from the left that has no substance. It isprobably best to move on from this silliness.

    We can move on, however it doesn't change the fact that no one in Alaska remembers being questioned about her. McCain just sent people to Alaska to verify her facts. I could go on but I agree, this is silly... True but silly.

    With what has come out already it does make a person wonder if she was vetted.

    Let's see:

    Supported the bridge to no where. No quote needed here. It is well documented.

    She believes that Iraq is a 'task from God."

    She gave a graduation speech at her church and said:

    She was nearly recalled as mayor:

    When ask about foreign travel and countries visited Ireland was included, but she didn't get off the plane in Ireland. The plane stopped to refuel and then flew on to Germany.

    McCain campaign is trying to stop the investigation into Palin from publishing its report:

    Palin has made a lot of enemies. In her brief political career she has stepped on a lot of toes. I am sure a lot of accusations will come out, but will any have staying power? I am sure many politicians in Alaska hate her. That goes for the oil companies too.

    I could care less about the earmarks. I mean I hate the whole earmark system but as a mayor I can't fault her for working the system for her city's advantage. Same goes as gov.

    I don't know who sets the levels for what is a "small" town. We only have 800 in our town. You would have to go a couple counties away to find a town as big as Wasilla around here. I do know from our small town that if she did not have the support of the police chief and library director she was smart to fire them. Of course the media should find them, I am sure they will love telling their story.

    As far as Iraq, I agree with her, I am just surprised a politician would be that honest.

    Oh I agree, but you can not ignore the politics. In a smaller town how can you expect to run the town well if the employees undercut and oppose one another. We have had that problem here before. If they would not support the desire of the voters and their selection of mayor they had to go, they would have been incompetent.

    I mean it is really no different than the President's staff. You would not expect Obama (IF he were to win) to keep Condelezza Rice as Secretary of State would you?
