maybe,just maybe,instead of doing what a kos kid would do and edit the line you should have put the entire line in.
“And she says that most of her legal bills were generated defending what she called frivolous ethics complaints, but she reveals that about one-tenth of the $500,000 was a bill she received to pay for the McCain campaign vetting her for the VP nod. “
So it was one tenth of $500,000 or $50,000. No reason to mislead people. Even charging her the first dollar was wrong and deserves righteous indignation.
When people go now and tell someone McCain charged her a half million dollars for vetting they’ll look prety dumb.
That makes it look even more chicken-$#1t if anything. He didn’t have 50 grand somewhere from his well moneyed backers? Maybe he was hoping that Palin would turn him down and was surprised when she didn’t?
Nope. AP ran the story EXACTLY AS PUT IN QUOTATIONS. They just re-ran a corrected version, inserting 1/10th into the paragraph. You can look at Ace and C4P to notate the original version is exactly as I quoted it.
Thank you for correcting the $500,000 figure. I was hoping someone would catch that before I got to the end of the thread. People read too fast and lose a lot of comprehension. $50,000 is bad enough.
