Rachel Maddow!!!!!!!!

what part of that is untrue?

And finally....
That statement, in fact, is true. In fact, by Rachel Maddow's own admission, Governor Palin "put" the jet on eBay three times. More importantly, when the jet failed to sell on eBay, rather than give up, she found a buyer to take the unneeded property off the state books.

It's interesting that far left liberal women absolutely can't stand women like palin or bachman.  Women can be the most catty and hateful people and I've seen it more with liberal women than conservative ones (Ann Coulteur as the exception).

you're right on the money, bro!

Left wing Liberals talk about tolerance and acceptance until it's someone who disagrees with them.  They are some of the most sarcastic and arrogant people I have seen.
Far right religious conservatives aren't at all tolerant either...but at least most of them realize it, and at least you don't get that elitist arrogance.

I don't like either of those camps...just making a point.

since you have Palins speech why don't you also show us Maddow's actual quote rather than your paraphrase of her quote.

When you read or hear the Palin quote she is giving the impression (intentional or not) that she sold the jet on Ebay.  I'm sure most people hearing that would assume she was saying she "got rid of it" on EBay.  Why even mention putting it on EBay if  it didn't work?  Maybe it Palin's intent was not to be misleading and maybe she is just a bad communicator.  

Either way, post speech the pundits do their thing and talk about the speech.  Maddow was obviously filling in the omission and pointing out that Palin did not in fact actually sell the jet on Ebay.  

If you only heard the speech you would come away with the impression that she sold the thing on Ebay and in fact one of my neighbors who only watches Fox news told me that very "fact" after the speech.

I'm going to take back my earlier suggestion that maybe this poor choice of words was not intentional.  I believe Palin's intent was to mislead.  From everything we've seen from her since she has proven she has no problem lying or being misleading.   Why would you talk about getting rid of things in one sentence and then in the next sentence say you put something on Ebay and leave out the salient fact that you didn't actually sell it on EBay.   It's not Palin's fault if people who hear that get the wrong impression.....right?

While I was at it, I got rid of a few things in the governor’s office that I didn’t believe our citizens should have to pay for.

That luxury jet was over the top. I put it on eBay.

nice try, bro.   "A" for effort.

nice try, bro.   "A" for effort.

how about finding Maddow's quote rather than your paraphrase of what she said.

For all we know she was quite clear in saying that Palin seems to be suggesting she sold the plane on Ebay when in fact she didn't sell it on EBAy.

I wonder why Palin didn't make that more clear herself.

Original Quote:

While I was at it, I got rid of a few things in the governor’s office that I didn’t believe our citizens should have to pay for.

That luxury jet was over the top. I put it on eBay.

A more clear explanation:

While I was at it, I got rid of a few things in the governor’s office that I didn’t believe our citizens should have to pay for.

That luxury jet was over the top. I put it on eBay but unfortunately I couldn't sell it there and had to go through a broker and ultimately sold it at a loss to the state

or even better just leave out EBay entirely

While I was at it, I got rid of a few things in the governor’s office that I didn’t believe our citizens should have to pay for.

That luxury jet was over the top and I sold it

Maddow was correct in clarifying that Palin didn't actually sell it on EBay (as one might conclude from only hearing Palins quote) and in fact failed to sell it on EBay and eventually used a broker and sold it at a loss.  Those are facts.

Your statement that Maddow said that Palin said she sold it on EBay is unproven unless you can show me Maddows actual quote and not your paraphrase.

Some of our less enlightened members should start a support group for themselves entitled "The Patron Saints of  lost and meaningless causes, debunked conspiracy theories, losing arguments, and moronic observations."

The Luke and 240 can be the founding members ( we dont want to call them founding fathers because that would imply sexism). Jag and straw can be chapter presidents. Slapper and Mons can be recruiters.

You're right this is a lame tangent.  Who cares about a misleading comment from a failed politician.
