On the surface Palin appears to be the gift that keeps on giving but, my friends, we have been this way before. This was the way Bush's service (or lack thereof) record was neutralized; by planting deliberately false stories along with the true so that all would be discredited on their uncovering, the media would be cowed & no more hard questioning tolerated. Please be aware of this in double & triple checking stories before reporting them. Fighting an election with those people is like crossing a minefield. Be Alert!
