Sarah Goes Joe Wilson on the Obamacare Summit!

Today we posted a note highlighting the lies of the softy southpaws at the Obamacare summit yesterday. Madame was nice enough to use our nearly 1.5 million Facebook rogues to share the GOP's fact check on the Obamacare Summit. Madame shared the GOP's Joe Wilson points from the event on reconciliation, supposed lower premiums, the public's opinion on incrementalism, and abortion funding.

Madame's no stranger to fact checks. The AP (Associated Press or Anti-Palin, take your pick) used 11 staff members to fact check her book, but only used 3 to fact check the climategate e-mails. It's about time that Madame gets to share some fact checking.

The Hockey Mom Cross Checks the Fact Checkers



Today, Madame went all Hockey Mom on the AP and their supposed fact checking of her book with another Facebook post. She crossed checked them into the boards! She called the AP "opposition research" for their "fact" checking attempts. Hehe, nice cross check, Madame!

Madame is looking forward to meeting everyone on the book tour! I can't wait for the road trip with Madame and the BOTUSes (Blackberry of the United States)! We will be tweeting too! Hurray! Facebook is fun, but I love the 140 character challenge!

Friends, get your Tivos ready! Madame's going to be hitting the airwaves this week (Oprah tomorrow), and she'll also be hitting the road with the book tour. The book comes out Tuesday! She can't wait to meet you all as she travels the country. She has dedicated the book to you, "patriots"!

The LOTUS Does Some Fact Checking!

If CNN thinks that they need to fact check a SNL skit, then the LOTUS can certainly fact check a Washington Post article and journalist!

Chris Cillizza has a article up today at the Washington Post about Madame's "Facebook strategy."He talked to Meg "The Enforcer" Stapleton about Madame's strategy, "[f]acebook itself is a true testament to American ingenuity and the entrepreneurial spirit; it will remain one of many great sources through which the governor will communicate directly with Americans". You better believe it! Madame's use of Facebook "saved or created" at least one American job: mine! She did this all without any piece of legislation and without spending one dime of taxpayer money!

The article was overall pretty "balanced". Of course it included an obligatory quote from some anonymous person to knock Madame. Sigh. Cillizza also made a mistake about Twitter in his article, but he's not the first. Cillizza seems to think that Madame and I have re-joined Twitter, but we haven't, at least not yet. He just needs to get his facts straight. Over a year and a half ago, Cillizza interviewed Madame. At one point, he mispronounced her name, and at another point, he said that Alaska wasn't the biggest state. The look on Madame's face at about the 2:30 mark when he did that was priceless! If you watch the whole interview, I don't think Madame was necessarily expecting Senator McAnonymous to tap her for VP, but he did! Oh, what a snowmachine ride it has been ever since!
