Caribou Barbie Is A L-I-A-R

The Statement:Republican vice presidential candidate Gov. Sarah Palin said Saturday, October 4, that Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama is “someone who sees America, it seems, as being so imperfect that he’s palling around with terrorists who would target their own country.”

Okay.

Red Flag Time.

If it’s coming out of Caribou Barbie’ Mouth it’s either gibberish or something someone else told her to say which means that her words are borrowed or stolen and that automatically puts anything she says straight on board the ” Cheap Talk Express”- So if you want to run her through fact check be my guest.

But I can GUESS who that fact check will turn out.

The Facts ( from this article):In making the charge at a fund-raising event in Englewood, Colorado, and a rally in Carson, California, Palin was referring at least in part to William Ayers, a 1960s radical. In both appearances, Palin cited a front-page article in Saturday’s New York Times detailing the working relationship between Obama and Ayers.

Geeze…Red Flag, oh here’s one.

Caribou Barbie read a newspaper…oh …sure she did

Whatever here’s the skinny

In the 1960s, Ayers was a founding member of the radical Weather Underground group that carried out a string of bombings of federal buildings, including the Pentagon and the U.S. Capitol, in protest against the Vietnam War. The now-defunct group was labeled a “domestic terrorist group” by the FBI, and Ayers and his wife, Bernadine Dohrn — also a Weather Underground member — spent 10 years as fugitives in the 1970s. Federal charges against them were dropped due to FBI misconduct in gathering evidence against them, and they resurfaced in 1980. Both Ayers and Dohrn ultimately became university professors in Chicago, with Ayers, 63, now an education professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

Obama’s Chicago home is in the same neighborhood where Ayers and Dohrn live. Beginning in 1995, Ayers and Obama worked with the non-profit Chicago Annenberg Challenge on a huge school improvement project. The Annenberg Challenge was for cities to compete for $50 million grants to improve public education. Ayers fought to bring the grant to Chicago, and Obama was recruited onto the board. Also from 1999 through 2001 both were board members on the Woods Fund, a charitable foundation that gave money to various causes, including the Trinity United Church that Obama attended and Northwestern University Law Schools’ Children and Family Justice Center, where Dohrn worked.

CNN’s review of project records found nothing to suggest anything inappropriate in the volunteer projects in which the two men were involved.

Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt told CNN that after meeting Obama through the Annenberg project, Ayers hosted a campaign event for him that same year when then-Illinois state Sen. Alice Palmer, who planned to run for Congress, introduced the young community organizer as her chosen successor. LaBolt also said the two have not spoken by phone or exchanged e-mail messages since Obama came to the U.S. Senate in 2005 and last met more than a year ago when they encountered each other on the street in their Hyde Park neighborhood.

The extent of Obama’s relationship with Ayers came up during the Democratic presidential primaries earlier this year, and Obama explained it by saying, “This is a guy who lives in my neighborhood … the notion that somehow as a consequence of me knowing somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago — when I was 8 years old — somehow reflects on me and my values doesn’t make much sense.”

And According To CNN Who Did The Fact Check

The

Verdict

 False.

There is no indication that Ayers and Obama are now

“palling around,”

or that they have had an ongoing relationship in the past three years.

Also, there is nothing to suggest that Ayers is now involved in terrorist activity or that other Obama associates are.

In Closing May I add…

Ha. Ha. Ha. Caribou Barbie and if you and Todd start packing now you can be back in Alaska to make it home in time to take part in the Troopergate Investigation…!

  1. Last Thursday night Sarah Palin said, “About times and Todd and our marriage in our past where we didn’t have health insurance and we know what other Americans are going through as they sit around the kitchen table and try to figure out how are they going to pay out-of-pocket for health care?”

    Now let me translate, because unless you”re a Republican (which means you didn”t watch the debate to listen to her”doesn”t she look so cute?), or unless you understand “tongues”, what she said is nearly unintellgible: She said there were “times…in our past (during their marriage) where we didn”t have health insurance.”

    OK, exactly when was that?

    According to public records, Sarah Heath and Todd Palin were married on August 29, 1988. Sometime in 1988, long before their first child Trak was born (in April of 1989 –yes, it appears she too was pregnant before she got married), Todd began working for British Petroleum and joined the United Steelworkers. As one of the largest and most successful unions in America, I”m pretty “gosh darn” sure they have what the people of Alaska refer to as a “Health Care Plan”.

    Good thing he worked for a strong union, isn”t it?

    After Sarah became Governor, Todd stopped working for BP for a while, but they would have had health insurance through her employment with the State of Alaska.

    Did she lie? O you betcha.

  2. SARAH PALIN IS COMING ON AS A LOUD MOUTH. FOR HER TO TRY TO DESTROY THE MORAL CHARACTER OF ANOTHER HUMAN BEING. SHE IS A PHONY CHURCH GOER, BECAUSE SHE IS NOT A CHRISTIAN. TO TELL AND SPREAD LIES, SHE IS UGLY ALL THE WAY TO THE BONE. THAT IS A GOOD PICTURE OF HER.

  3. Mary-excellent point, if I remember my Sunday school lessons there’s something in there intthe Commandments about bearing false witness against thy neighbor. I guess that because Caribou Barbie is up there in Alaska Obama and the rest of the world aren’t her neighbors ( except for Putin HA!) she’s oozed her way out of this one.

    B.G.G.W – I was wondering about that bit of history myself, thanks for bringing it up here. Though I know full well there was no way Barbie and Ken were stressing over Health Care and if they did I’m sure their families would have helped them out…they must LOVE to hear hear barf out sob stories like that.
