I have become aware over the past 7 days by listening and reviewing anything there is to know about Sarah Palin that she is a LIAR. If you see this email and know of any of her lies to the American people please respond and lets make a running tally of her lies. Not going by rumors, not being sexist, just going by the absolute facts and I am so curious as to why the issues are not being talked about on MSNBC or FOX News like it would be if it were Obama. We need to pressure the major networks to get the truth out about Sarah Palin.
1. In Palin's speech she had a "applause line" saying she "sold her plane on Ebay". It has become known that she HAD posted the plane on Ebay but it would not sell so she ended up selling the plane to a donor to her campaign for Govenor, who is a Plane Broker. So, the plane Was Not sold on Ebay. John McCain said in a speech Friday morning, "IMAGINE MY VP, SHE SOLD HER PLANE ON EBAY". We cannot allow continued Lies to the American people.
2. Bridge to Nowhere, Voted for it in 2006. Now is claiming, over and over, that she said "Thanks but No Thanks to the Bridge". That is a documented lie.
3. Palin and the McCain team have tried to Stonewall the current Abuse of Power investigation in Alaska. So the Investigators have sped up the Investigation to get results in by early October. Makes you wonder why they are trying to delay.?
4. To defend Palin from the media asking ligitmate questions they immediately claimed Sexism just like what happened with Hillary. Did everyone notice the many pins people were wearing Thursday night stating "The HOTTEST VP". Which were developed by the McCain campaign. What a contridiction.
5. Palin was put in hiding for 5 days, from the time she was introduced Friday to the time she made a speech on Wednesday night. In that time it was said by Cindy McCain, John McCain and others that she has Foreign Policy experience because "Alaska is close to Russia". She was not available for any interviews and has been "Protected" by the McCain team, only giving the American people snipets of information while she had to practice for 5 days to give her 30 minute speech.
6. The McCain team informed the press that Palin's 17 year old daughter was pregnant, then critizied the media for asking further questions. It seems McCain has Control issues and will only inform us Americans what we need to know and any questions are off limits. If Sarah Palin cannot stand up to a few questions she then cannot stand up to the Vice Presidency. She is obviously playing a Rope a Dope style with Obama. Throwing punches at Obama and being sarcastic about him and his supporters. Then if any response comes pack, she or the team claims Sexism or "Her Right to Privacy".
7. Now word is out she has gone to 6 colleges in 7 years to get her degree. What is the story behind that?, does anyone know?
Please respond to me at leewilcox7@aol.com and lets put together a running tally of what a decieving, scandal based liar, same old politics game that the McCa back in team is playing. And by the Polls, it is working!!!!
I see McCain out with Commercials constantly, new commercials sometimes every day. With what Biden said about Obama's experience, the what Hillary said, the 3 a.m. commercial, the 3 days of attacks on Obama at their Convention. Why dont WE have ADS playing in the same if not a faster pace than our opponent. There is plenty to choose from with McCain and Palin to show the country the difference between Obama and this horrible ticket we are running against.
I am located in Connecticut, in a large Media Market close to NYC. We need intensity and fire and a huge push to McCains newly created momentum. Now we seemed tied again in the polls and cannot let the new ticket catch fire and run away with this.
LETS MAKE THIS HAPPEN, HELP ME, YES WE CAN, YES WE WILL, OBAMA/ BIDEN 2008 FOR OUR FUTURE!!!!
Shocking Racist Violation of USA "Freedom of the Press," when the only black reporter at event in Florida kicked out of event while reporting for Tallahassee Democrat; Mc Cain's staff: "I can tell you beyond a shadow of a doubt that race had nothing to do with it." [http://www.prlog.org/10098337-sole-black-reporter-booted-from-mccain-event-showing-deep-racism-in-gops-security-concerns.html] [to be accurate, this was posted by 'THINKBRIDGE' at Dailykos.com, but ultimately derived from an article by Mr. Lemming in the Tallahassee Democrat]
Tallahassee Democrat senior writer Stephen Price was singled outand asked to leave the area reserved for media at a rally for John McCain in Panama City, Florida, on Friday. He had showed his media credentials and employee i.d. in order to enter the area when a member of McCain's security detail asked him to leave.
"I explained I was with the state press, but the Secret Service man said that didn't matter and that I would have to go," Price said. When another reporter asked why Price was being removed, she too was led out of the area. Other state reporters remained.
Price was the only black reporter among those surrounding McCain's bus; was he being"profiled"?
Tallahassee Democrat Executive Editor Bob Gabordi said the incident was unwarranted.
"We're deeply concerned and disturbed that our reporter — of all of those in that area — was asked to move," Gabordi said. "My understanding is that Stephen was the only reporter approached and asked to leave the area, and the only reporter in that area who is black. Another reporter who stood up for Stephen was then asked to leave."
Jonathan Block of the McCain campaign, who was not there at the time of the incident, expressed regret, but stated,
"I can tell you beyond a shadow of a doubt that race had nothing to do with it."
Block said the area where Price was standing was restricted to members of the traveling national press corps that accompanies McCain on the campaign trail.
Wow. Really. There's this story line going around that McCain loves to be "unscripted" and was always wandering into unprepared situations, giving the impression of "getting down to the people." Why was the black man singled out? And then why was the other reporter ousted for defending him? Why couldn't they simply tell them right then and there that this area is restricted to press that travels with McCain, if that was, in fact, true???
UPDATE: The next line from the Tallahassee Democrat is:
"At the end of the day, your reporter was in the wrong place. I do not know why the other reporters were not moved. The rest of the local press should have been moved as well," Block said.
Which looks like the McCain campaign's excuse strategy, and typical of such things for him. OK, it was just one of those things. But why does this happen now, this way, why always something against blacks? It both excuses and points out the issues in this incident.
I'm sure McCain really needs this sort of stuff to keep those "swing voters" wondering. First, he backs a bill in Arizona that would wipe out affirmative action as "quotas", a "reverse racism"-style proposition, to coddle the right-wing racist White First bloc. Then he accuses Obama of racism for mentioning in passing something that could be construed to mean Obama is black. And if McCain infers that he is older, we're supposed to accuse him of "age-ism", right? Now, his security detail is weeding out "suspects"??
And this isn't the first weird incident with McCain's security. Here you can check out how they kicked a librarian out of a public rally for holding a McCain=Bush sign, and charged her with trespassing.
The event, at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, was billed as 'open to the public.' Yet Carole Kreck, a 61-year-old librarian carrying a 'McCain=Bush' sign, was taken away by police [on orders from McCain's security detail] for trespassing. A police officer told Kreck: 'You have two choices. You can keep your sign here and receive a ticket for trespassing, or you can remove the sign and stay in line and attend this town hall meeting.' Kreck received a ticket for trespassing and her court date is July 23.
Security trumps free speech. Security trumps reporters' access to a candidate. Dissent and being a person of color seem to always land in the world of "security risk". One of the Republicans' biggest ticket issues is "increase Security." It plays to fear. It plays to the military. But, as this incident is a small but notable example, it doesn't play to our higher goals of fairness, openness, and actual freedom (not rhetorical "freedom" as in "freedom fries"). For McCain, it's a pattern he can't break free from. For the rest of us, it's an election we must weigh in on, in historic numbers, for the other, security-by-freedom, not security-vs-freedom, side.
