As an Alaskan newspaper points out, it appears one of her bigger lies of the night was left out of that Yahoo! story:

PALIN: "I fought to bring about the largest private-sector infrastructure project in North American history. And when that deal was struck, we began a nearly forty billion dollar natural gas pipeline to help lead America to energy independence. That pipeline, when the last section is laid and its valves are opened, will lead America one step farther away from dependence on dangerous foreign powers that do not have our interests at heart.

THE FACTS: Palin implies that construction has begun on a major natural gas pipeline from the top of Alaska into Canada. That is not correct.

In fact, no building has begun and actual construction is years away, if it ever happens. This summer the Alaska Legislature, at Palin's request, passed a bill under which the state will issue a "license" to a Canadian energy company, TransCanada Corp., and pay it up to $500 million as an incentive to someday build this enormous project, which Alaska politicians have long sought with little success. The license is not a construction contract, and federal energy regulators have not yet approved the project.

Palin also puts the price tag for the project at $40 billion, an exaggeration. This is roughly $10 billion more than most cost estimates industry players and consultants have made to date.

Well then it's a "she says...he says".
Who has the truth or is more believable?

>>wishy washy on the 9th

not the least...

so your belief in an Alaskan newspaper article that could have an extreme bias against conservative idealogy (most do) is more credible then Palin's address last night...he says...she says...what is truth here...don't know if you'll find it...still believe Sarah.

Who has more interest in stretching the truth? The newspaper or a candidate running for office?
