Chicago Tribune Knocks Sarah Palin's Feedback Rating Down a Few Deciles
As Governor of a vast state with unlimited resources and a population of 17, Sarah Palin was just your average Joe/Jane Private Jet owner. So when she decided it was time to sell the old family Westwind, she just tacked on a regular old "For Sale" sign and put it up on eBlocks in the eYard.
When Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin sought to illustrate her frugality and flair to delegates at the GOP convention Wednesday, she described how she disposed of a corporate jet acquired by her unpopular predecessor.
"That luxury jet was over the top," Palin, the Republican vice presidential nominee, said to loud cheers. "I put it on eBay."
You know how the old Babylonian proverb goes, "If it sounds too stupid to say, much less lie about, chances are there's a Republican lying about it right now. Now get your filthy Sumerian paws off my ziggurat!"
But the plane failed to sell on eBay.
Instead, the 23-year-old 10-seat Westwind II was sold in August 2007 for $2.1 million to a Valdez, Alaska, entrepreneur; that's about $300,000 less than a broker's asking price, according to news accounts.
To be fair, it's true that Palin never said she sold the plane on eBay. Plus, my Alaskan friends tell me that, in Alaska, "to put x on eBay," actually means "failed to sell x on eBay, then contracted out a private firm to lose money on it." Also, "snow."

What is up with this "Palin is hot" stuff? Is everyone on the internet from Arkansas? Fat ankles, body like a nose tackle, and the biggest, squarest head I've ever seen.
She looks like the girls on the "find your high school class" adverts.
Y'all need to get out more.
********
For Sarah Palin to have stated "I PUT it on e-Bay", leading the innocent to believe that she SOLD it in e-Bay (which is NOT TRUE), amounts to nothing but premeditated deceit.
.
That shows how she hides HOW the plane was sold, and WHY. Only for political purposes, and on top of that, to a campaign contributor, at a loss of $300.00, according to record checkers. And more is coming out.
.
Oh Lord, protect us from those who want to pluck our eyes and ears with knives covered with cotton. Amen

There's an evangelical named jay goldstein? Interesting if true. What next? A landsmann named Mitt Romney?
BREAKING NEWS.
During her acceptance speech, Sarah Palin claims parents of special needs children will have a friend in the White house.
Meanwhile, she cut funding for special needs children in her State of Alaska from about $58Mil to a mere $3 mil!
Now, that's news worth following…
Dear "In."
What a golden tongue you have. Or is it brown?
I'm trying to attach a .pdf file… it's from the
Wasilla public library. They have a procedure to
remove a book from the shelves.. LOOK! Last year, it
was America by John Steward (sic!)….
well, hell… I can't seem to do it.
Go to the Wasilla public library website.
Click on the removed book page…. it describes the policy, and then lists John's book.

Sarah may have been considered as McCain's VP because pitbulls don't let go in a fight. You sometimes can't get a pitbull to let up its' grip on another living thing without taking a hammer to its head. Just a thought.
Me and my roommates just realized something that proves that Sara Palin has tons of experience. She is obviously the voice of the major of Southpark. Thus meaning that she has tons of experience dealing with catastropes of the stupid kind as an animated Major.
I think Sarah Palin is a wonderful "breath of fresh air" compared to all those stuffy Washington phonies. She's got my vote!!!
