The Wonderful Associated Press

The Associated Press had eleven reprters do a fact check on Sarah Palin's book. Of course the AP did not see the need to fact check either one of Obama's books, or Joe Biden's book. I Issue a challenge to the AP. Why don't they read Al Gore's book. These eleven reporters found six innaccuracies in a 400 and something page book. My challenge to these eleven reporters is for them to try and find six FACTS in Al Gore's book.

    " Cajunator and To-never-paid-attention make valid points about Sarah Palin. She might not be perfect, but she's a heck of a lot better in a lot of ways than either Obama or Biden. As pointed out, there are several other potential candidates who would be better as well. Come to think of it, I can't think of anybody who could be worse for the future of the country than the clowns (Obama/Pelosi/Reid) that are running the show now. Even Hillary Clinton would not have been this bad.
    PS
    Love the Em-Palined comments. "

    " Em: Not sure what you meant with that comment,but how can one not tip their hat to rugged individualism,self reliance,and determination? Anyone who's spent time in Alaska knows that without those attributes,the lifestyle there will swallow you whole. Politics aside,I'd give anything to watch these Hollywood actors,politicians,and media folks who attack her,reduced to whimpering invalids by Palin out on the tundra. That would be the pay-per-view event of the century. Or how about an emasculating bare-knuckles debate between Palin and Obama? Palin:"You betcha...I got some slap-n-trade that's hazardous to your healthcare". "

    " Let's put it this way, before the election Sarah Palin had hands down more experience than Obama. Check their records. Obama never ran anything above 'Acorn'. Sarah was in charge of a state and was doing a good job - ask any Alaskan citizen. Is she perfect, no but who is. And Sarah says she's more conservative than republican. Did you catch her interview? It was good. A majority of the press has proven that they're not impartial, so listen to the person and judge by their record_and_think_for_yourself. "

    " I think Palin would transplant nicely as a Cajun. She's good at hunting and skinning big game animals. Then there's that big thing that proves she could be a Cajun. Just because she lost a major election doesn't mean she can't act like the election never happened. She has that Cajun thing, you whipped me today but now you gotta whip me everytime you see me. I think she'd make a good camp wife in the Basin. I wonder if she'd pose for the camp wife calender with the rabbit hanging from her waist belt? "

    " My posting was not to take a poll on Sarah Palin. It was about the unfair treatment she received from the media. Can you Palin haters not even concede that point? Pathetic. "

    " You are right, if she is going to run for President she should be scrutinized. Fair enough. Obama was running for President, and now he is President. Where was the scrutiny of his two books? I know, I know, that's different, you like Obama. Only scrutinize "the enemy." "

    " Conservatives are claiming that Sarah Palin is the next William Jennings Bryant in that they both fired up their devoted followers. Please remember Bryant ran for president three times and lost all three times. Be careful what you wish for. "

    " Sarah Palin will never, I repeat never be President Of the United States Of Amrica. As for Outraged if you looked beyond the pretty face of Palin,you would see a person that can't answer a simple question unless it involves her family, she knows nothing about American History. she complains about everything & everybody. Oh she is a carbon copy of Outraged, OOPS "

    " This is why I don't pay attention. I had decided I was either independent or republican. The Repubs are grooming Sarah Palin. Why? Does she really have a chance? To me, there are better canidates out there than her. Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney, Ron Paul. I don't doubt she's popular, but is she qualified. Popularity is what got us in the situation we are in! Of cours it doesn't seem that you have to be qualified now days to become President. "

    Cajunator wrote on Nov 19, 2009 8:52 AM:

    " Last time I checked, Barrak Obama was our President. Didn't he release a book right before running for President? How many AP reporters were assigned to fact check that book? And why weren't you demanding that this "potential democrat leader" be scrutinized? And why do you continue to post without an alias? Probably because you don't have much confidence in your own rubbish. "

    " The liberal media are terrified of Sahara Palin!!!
    She is a popular person who if she chooses might possibly be the next president!!!
    I don't know if she will run as a republican or an Independent but she is capable of either!!! "

    " Sarah Palin's book is out and it is obvious that she's running for President down the road. She put herself into politics and must face the pressure. Al Gore isn't running anymore. As long as she wants to be considered a potential Republican leader, I want her subjected to scrutiny. "
