The unfair assault on Sarah Palin’s pathological lying continues as the Mainstream Media gets its panties in a bunch about Sarah Palin LYING AGAIN! Jumpin’ Jesus on a POGO STICK! WHY. WHY, WHY? Stupid Liberal Media and their “Truth Addiction”

So, guess what now? ABC News took a look at that little claim about Darfur related divestment and Sarah Palin’s claims that she was just as supportive as can be, don’cha’know? Yeah, turns out to be more bullshit on the mountain of bullshit that has already flown out of her lying gob.

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin fought to protest atrocities in Sudan by dropping assets tied to the country’s brutal regime from the state’s multi-billion-dollar investment fund, she claimed during Thursday’s vice presidential debate.

Not quite, according to a review of the public record and according to the recollections of a legislator and others who pushed a measure to divest Alaskan holdings in Sudan-linked investments.

“The [Palin] administration killed our bill,” said Alaska state representative Les Gara, D-Anchorage. Gara and state Rep. Bob Lynn, R-Anchorage, co-sponsored a resolution early this year to force the Alaska Permanent Fund a $40 billion investment fund, a portion of whose dividends are distributed annually to state residents  to divest millions of dollars in holdings tied to the Sudanese government.

Palin killed our bill? But, that’s not what she said!

In Thursday’s debate, Palin said she had advocated the state divest from Sudan. “When I and others in the legislature found out that we had some millions of dollars [of Permanent Fund investments] in Sudan, we called for divestment through legislation of those dollars,” Palin said.

Yup, that’s what I thought she said, and a winking VP Candidate with a fancy hairdo wouldn’t LIE would she?

But a search of news clips and transcripts from the first three months of this year did not turn up an instance in which Palin mentioned the Sudanese crisis or concerns about Alaska’s investments tied to the ruling regime. Moreover, Palin’s administration openly opposed the bill, and stated its opposition in a public hearing on the measure.

“The legislation is well-intended, and the desire to make a difference is noble, but mixing moral and political agendas at the expense of our citizens’ financial security is not a good combination,” testified Brian Andrews, Palin’s deputy revenue commissioner, before a hearing on the Gara-Lynn Sudan divestment bill in February. Minutes from the meeting are posted online by the legislature.

Gara says the lack of support from Palin’s administration helped kill the measure.

Silly Liberal Media. Can’t they just let all these lies go? Why look into things that the McCain / Palin camp claims and then check for those unRepublican “truths”? I mean, sure it’s a genocide, but, doggonit, it’s not like those hundreds of thousands of brown people would ever be people that Sarah Palin would care about, eh? You can’t see the Sudan from Alaska, don’chu’know?

Here’s the final math on the towering virtue of GOP Party LEaders McCain/Palin:

The Alaska Permanent Fund currently holds $22 million in Sudan-linked investments, according to the non-profit Sudan Divestment Task Force. Divestment advocates say the fund does not need an act of the state legislature to divest itself of those holdings.

The McCain-Palin campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., has been a strong supporter of Sudan divestment efforts, and has urged Americans to liquidate their holdings in companies who do business there. He was criticized for that position when it was revealed in May his wife Cindy held $2 million in investment funds owning shares of Sudan-linked companies. She sold those holdings following a reporter’s inquiries.

The real article is long, tragic, heartrending and, frankly, disgusting. It does, however, have a lot of those FACTS that the GOP finds so Liberal.
