So... What are they afraid of?

In reaction to Sarah Palin's book AP assigns a task force to 'fact checking' in an attempt to impune the source.

The AP claims Palin misstated her record with regard to travel expenses and taxpayer-funded bailouts, using statements widely reported elsewhere. But it also speculated into Palin's motives for writing "Going Rogue: An American Life," stating as fact that the book "has all the characteristics of a pre-campaign manifesto."

Palin quickly hit back on a Facebook post titled "Really? Still Making Things Up?"

As much as people think she is a twit this woman has the potential to make a very strong run for President.

I dont think thats her plan. She can do more to expose the fraud and hypocrisy of both parties as a 'rouge'.

Look up www.sarahpac.com

Sure she is looking to uncover the corruption and who better to run the joint after that is done?

BTW, this donation site of hers is a precursor to getting campaign money.

While 11 staffers sounds excessive, it's true that the AP's deep reserves allow for reporters with specific areas of expertise -- such as the Alaska pipeline or incidents from the campaign trail -- to address a handful of pages dealing with those specific topics, while not necessarily dropping everything to read the entire book.
Could it be that Fox s just trying to add more spin to a story already spinning quite enough, besides this controversy is something Palin probably loves, this will do nothing but help sell her crap. Just another politician, nothing special here.

How many reporters were assigned to 'fact check' Obama's book?

More of the same outlandish excuses for every screwup of her now-ended political career. She can't string together a coherent sentence? Oh, the media's out to get her. She writes a book full of fabrications and lies? Oh, the media's scared of her. She goes on a hillbilly-who-done-won-the-lotto shopping spree during the campaign? The McCain folks held a gun to her head and made her do it, you see? The luxury hotel stays with her daughter that the Alaskan taxpayer footed the bill for?It never happened and if it did I usually didn't stay in ritzy places!It's very entertaining to see you all contort yourself into making up progressively more and more outlandish excuses for this woman.

It's not about uncovering any fraud. It's about the money. The more inflammatory garbage she spews, the more money she makes. It's the Limbaugh/Beck business model.

Sarah Palin's quest to uncover "corruption" is on the same level as O.J.'s "search for the real killers."

With exception of the OJ comment, you only know what the media told you at that time concerning Palin. At that time the media was in such a frenzy to discredit everyone they could and let everyone know Obama does infact lay golden eggs. It was almost criminal. It just sent 'shivers up my leg' reporting during the campaign . Do you really know what happened? Was she allowed to tell her side of the story? Well, no. To be honest, looks to me she has lost complete and utter faith in this system of government and or she has lost faith in how it is run. I would guess it is the latter. If she is so boring and uninspiring why is she scheduled on top shows around the country?

Well, she also doesn't need a teleprompter to put together a grouping of coherent sentences like the menace currently in the WH. And talk about making a fool out of yourself during the campaign, I wonder if Obama still thinks the USA is comprised of 57 states.

Mookie, it's apparent that people like you are deathly afraid of this woman. For nno other reason than she has an ability to energize people of conservative values to donate money and go out and vote. The "She's stupid" thing doesn't work. Liberals do this with every Republican politician....like GW Bush for example and he got re-elected.

I also think you're scared because as she is out there energizing conservatives, the Democrat Party has kicked guys like you to the curb. And you know that ain't going to play well with your base next cycle.
