Can we start a lie rebuttal thread?

[margotb822]

Here?

I'd like to collect some (most) of the lies she told and rebut them in one place. I work in a very conservative office, so it would be great to have the info in one place.

Taxes?
Special Ed funding?
Lobbyist ties?
Energy?

Any help?

She completely sucks. It should be easy...

3. Is there enough space on this web page for this crap she's spewing?

They're eating up her lies like crazy.

4. special ed funding info here

"For those of you who seem so enamored with Gov. Sarah Palin, it might be worth noting that she oversees the budget for the Department of Education and Early Development Special Schools in Alaska.
These funds provide supplementary educational services to students with severe disabling conditions and the Alaska Challenge Youth Academy. The resident school where the child would normally be placed does not have the resources to provide an adequate educational program. Without the supplementary services the child’s needs would not be met by the local school district in most cases.

The following programs are included within this component:
Special Education Service Agency (SESA)

The Annual budget for 2007, which preceded Gov. Palin was $8,265,300.

The Annual budget for 2008, enacted by Gov. Palin is $3,156,000.

http://www.gov.state.ak.us/omb/08_OMB/budget/EED/comp27...

The Annual budget for 2009, enacted by Gov. Palin is $3,156,000.

http://www.gov.state.ak.us/omb/09_omb/budget/EED/comp27...

This is a cut in special needs services to children in Alaska of 5,109,300 , or 62%."
