Just the facts, please ... finally a measured summary of Sarah Palin's background.

A good friend of mine forwarded this email to me. After scanning it, I checked Snopes .com t o see what, if anything, it could provide. Imagine my surprise when they confirmed that the alledged author did in fact acknowledge and avow writing it.

Another friend asked me the other day why my status said I was incredulous. I was incredulous after watching Mrs. Palin's mocking remarks (my opinion, thank-you) at the Republican convention. But, with this measured summary of her 'background', I can finally and more fully answer her by saying I'm tired of the ''politics of destruction'' and the polarizing effects it is having on our country. I'm tired of wondering if what is said by candidates is true or not. I'm tired of the constant 'spin' by all aspects of the media on all elements of everything. Please, ''just the facts'' ... and let me decide for myself.


Updated: Nice website (FactCheck.org) that actually does what I'm asking for here
