News site Politico.com admitted Friday that it made an "error" in attributing a nasty quote about Rep. Michele Bachmann to former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.
The quote came in an opinion piece Thursday by former Virginia Democratic Party chief Paul Goldman and George Mason University professor Mark J. Rozell. The piece speculated on whether Bachmann's possible presidential run might compel Palin to get in the race, and argued that her recent bus tour sent a message to Bachmann, R-Minn. -- a message they attributed directly to Palin.
The article said: "Palin's bus tour had some of the hallmarks of a primal scream: 'I built this constituency, not Bachmann, not anyone else,' she said. Looking at it through her eyes, she has a point."
However, Palin never said that. Her political action committee promptly issued a statement urging the media to "quit making stuff up."

If they did that there'd never be another news cast on TV nor a newspaper printed.
I can see lying, political hacks from my house and they go by the name of Politico.com.
It isn’t as much fun to “eat your own”.
They don’t need to look through her emails, they just make it up as they go along.
The GOP better wise up real quick about who their enemies are and learn to be one step ahead of their enemies at all times.
A very clever socialist-collective/propaganda-machine with an obvious agenda from day 1.
I have a friend - a Brit living in America - who still thinks Sarah Palin said she can see Alaska from her front porch. If you challenge him, he says he actually SAW her say it.
The media is angry with Sarah because she’s a feminist’s dream, but she’s conservative.
Sarah schooled them and embarrassed them in the Paul Revere thing (which resembles the way Christine O’Donnell was smeared and lied about over the First Amendment) and Politico just flat-out lied about Sarah and got caught at it, so now it’s payback time.
Amen....they also hate her because she’s a CHRISTIAN!!!
The more they cry wolf, the less independents will believe them. Oh, the true believing Obama-licking socialists will get off on the lies, but at the expense of losing the wishy washy middle they need to defeat Palin.
“MSM Lies”. Isn’t that redundant?
