Palin Pads Resume Again: Didn't Actually Meet British Ambassador

Sarah Palin BUSTED!! Forced to apologize to British ambassador for lying about participating in "talks" with him that never actually took place!

"In an answer to questions about her foreign policy experience ahead of tonight's make-or-break vice presidential TV debate, her aides listed numerous contacts with foreign officials - including Britain's ambassador to Washington, Sir Nigel Sheinwald. However the meeting never occurred. Officials at the embassy swiftly contacted the McCain-Palin campaign to inform them of the discrepancy. A British Embassy spokesman said the error arose after Sir Nigel's name was listed among those who had attended a US Governor's meeting in July."

It is truly as stated by Jim Lerher, PBS, who asked his political commentators after the V.P. "debate": "...is this 'Gidget Goes to Washington,' or what?"

"Palin Pads Resume Again". Juan,
I do wish that people wouldn't use euphemisms in situations like like this. What's wrong with
" Palin lies again"?

Recall that an aircraft fueling stop in Ireland was initially deemed part of her excellent international adventures.

P.S. is the McCain Campaign now the official governor of AK?

I am wondering your opinion on Joe Biden's mention of kicking Hizbullah out of Lebanon? Did he just fumble his wording, or is he confused on the subject. I know he has gotten a bit of heat over that remark.
