"She sold it on ebay. And made a profit" McCain video.

[kansasblue]

McCain on the campaign trail says Palin sold the plane (expensive state plane) on Ebay and made a profit.

CNN video says no, didn't sale on Ebay and sold at a loss and the new buyer still seeking additional money to cover expenses.

1. now they're saying that Palin said "she put in on ebay" as opposed to "selling it on ebay."

But McCain clearly takes the lie and adds to it.

4. John McCain does not speak for the John McCain campaign

:crazy:

2. I think she said "I put it on Ebay"... It was McCain who said "sold"

[kansasblue]

3. agree... but the key here is McCain saying SOLD/PROFIT.

I agree I haven't heard Palin say anything but 'put'.

It's McCain that in stretching the truth.

10. Agree.. Palin is keeping her lies to the Bridge to Nowhere.. she has to keep 'em straight

and more then one at a time is confusing to her.. what between that and having to memorize all of her lines for the Gibson interview tonight!

5. I guess some people at his age just have problems sorting facts from fiction

Some people have a sharp mind even in their eighties or nineties. Sorry to see that he is not one of them.

On the other hand, of course, he could just be a pathological liar.

6. My trusty assistant just noted that Palin did Indeed sell

the plane profitably: to the buyer, not the state of Alaska.

8. I disagree: 2.7 million to buy it. sold for 2.1

Frank Murkowski, bought the jet for $2.7

"They did end up selling it for $2.1 million.

9. You miss my point. It was a profitable transaction for her friend, the buyer.

He got a steal.

7. Turns out she did neither .... I smell a 527 ad.
