Sarah Palin...the Republican party might be able to fool some of the people some of the time, but after eight years of deceptive republican politics, not even a passionate speech by a self proclaimed "Hockey Mom" will fool America this time.
Sure she is an accomplished and successful woman, sure she is a good mom, Ok she can read a teleprompter...BIG DEAL!
Sarah Palin is also a person who plans to keep the legacy of dishonest, divisive, and deceptive politics alive and well in America.
It all began when she launched into her attack and while there were many things that she twisted, the following false statement was blatantly deceptive:
"Listening to him (Obama) speak, it is easy to forget that, this is a man who has authored two memoirs but not even a major law or even a reforn, not even in the state senate."
The truth is that Obama during his first 3 years in the U.S. Senate sponsored 129 bills (7 were passed by the Senate and two became law) and he co-sponsored numerous bills to include:
1. Coburn-Obama Government Transparency Act of 2006 - became law,
2. Lugar-Obama Nuclear Non-proliferation and Conventional Weapons
Threat Reduction Act, - became law,
3. Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act, passed the Senate,
4. 2007 Government Ethics Bill, became law,
In all, since entering the State/U.S. Senate, Senator Obama has written 890 bills and co-sponsored another 1096.
An impressive record, for someone who supposedly has no record according to Sarah Palin.
Don't be confused by the desperate Rupublican rhetoric, check the facts.
