Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin tells audiences the election is about the "truthfulness and judgment" needed to be president. But the Alaska governor often stretches the truth herself.
She has exaggerated the nature of Barack Obama's personal ties to a former 1960s radical and falsely claimed the Democratic presidential candidate plans to raise most people's taxes.
On Tuesday, she tried rebutting the Illinois senator's criticisms of Republican presidential candidate John McCain over health care and Social Security. She said Obama was misleading and wrong, but she herself told less than the full story.
To be sure, most of Palin's assertions about Obama echo claims McCain himself has made or lines from Republican TV ads.
At a rally Tuesday, Palin tried to link Obama to the failure of housing giant Fannie Mae by noting that two Obama supporters once led the troubled company. The government seized Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, another housing finance company, last month to prevent their collapse from worsening the global credit crisis.
"What's next, claiming that he didn't know two of his biggest supporters were running Fannie Mae, the subprime mortgage giant?" Palin said. "That has done harm to the American economy."
She referred to Jim Johnson, who chaired Fannie Mae from 1991-1998, and Franklin Raines, his successor who stepped down in 2004 in an accounting scandal.

Remember this blast from the AP past (2004 - AP caught lying)
Uh.....and that's not a strong tie to his campaign?
Oh, please.
The ASS press wouldn’t tell the truth if it hit them in the face.
All this makes me think that we hit the gold mine in going after the truth on Obama!
Imagine that? The AP is questioning Sarah Palin’s truthfulness. The AP really needs to look in the mirror.

She was good in 'Grease'.
I do not enjoy writing to all these MSM outlets and reading them the riot act, but I do it anyway.
they deserve my wrath, and that is exactly what they get.
When you see their pictures, it’s easy to understand why they HATE Governor Palin more than they hate Dubya.
This is ridiculous. This is nothing less than an Obama campaign statement.
Do you think this stuff makes sense to them ?
Or is it simply the best they can do with what they have ?
Common denominator? .... They’re probably not successful with men.
homely cows?
Getting?
Rush Limbaugh and I bot would have put it much less diplomatically.
LOL!
What would you expect them to say! Sarah you hit it right on the head, you go girl! I always love the way demon politicians try to answer a charge by their opponent.
“I reject that”
