The latest?

Palin’s statement that she placed the state jet used by former Alaskan Governor Murkowski on Ebay is now being vetted by the media.  Apparently, the plane didn’t sell on Ebay.  Rather, it sold via an aviation broker for less than it’s original purchase price.

Who cares?  The fact is that Governor Palin eliminated a unnecessary state expense that she believed was unjustly dropped in the laps of Alaskan taxpayers.

What’s more important– how the plane was sold, or the fact that is was sold? ]]> http://publictrough.com/2008/09/keep-digging/feed/ 0
