On earmarks she's an even bigger crock. On the trail with McCain they're telling everyone that she's some kind of earmark slayer when actually, when she was mayor and governor, in both offices, she requested and got more earmarks than virtually any city or state in the country.Am I the only one astonished that Republicans can ignore the lies out of Palin's and McCain's mouths? Why will they accept these lies? Because they want McCain elected of course. They want him elected so that he can change Washington. Change things that McCain and Republicans have been responsible for over the last 8 years. That's change you can believe in.
Think about that. On the stump, not a single word that comes out of her mouth -- or not a single word that the McCain folks put in her mouth -- is anything but a lie. I know that sounds like hyperbole. But just go down the list. None of them bear out.

and think back to the 2000 campaign: at some point the press decided that gore had a problem telling the truth, largely by attributing things to him he never said. and hence an important campaign narrative was born. now john mccain has told, and is still telling(!), falsehoods of a much more egregious nature. think he'll get the same treatment?
