Sarah Palin Lies, Misinformation & Misleading Statements

Date	Misinformer	Type	Source	Location	About	Severity

11/23/10	Sarah Palin	Out of Context	Book	America By Heart, pg 69	Barack Obama
	Palin deliberately misquotes Obama in her recent book, "America by Heart." Cropping out context of the statement and using it against him. "They don't believe we have a special message for the world or a special mission to preserve our greatness for the betterment of not just ourselves but all of humanity. Astonishingly, President Obama even said that he believes in American exceptionalism in the same way the Brits believe in British exceptionalism and the Greeks believe in Greek exceptionalism. Which is to say, he doesn't believe in American exceptionalism at all. He seems to think it is just a kind of irrational prejudice in favor of our way of life. To me, that is appalling."
08/16/10	Sarah Palin	Misleading	Spoken	On the Record with Greta...	Freedom of Religion
	"Nobody argues that freedom of religion that the Muslims have to build that mosque somewhere. On the August 16 edition of On the Record with Greta Van Susteren, Fox News contributor Sarah Palin claimed that [n]obody argues that freedom of religion that the Muslims have to build that mosque somewhere. Palin then argued that there are a hundred mosques already in New York and that to chose and be so adamant about this exact location, just a block or two away from 9-11, again, is that kn"
12/09/09	Sarah Palin	Minor Lie			Global Warming
	"Palin claims that scientists still are unsure about climate change, and that they are cannot come to a conclusion on whether man has something to do with it. However, this is not true. The vast majority of scientists believe in climate change, pointing to ice cores data, carbon emissions, etc to show that this is not a cyclical process, and it is certainly caused greatly by human actions."
12/03/09	Sarah Palin	Standard Lie	Interview	The Rusty Humphries Show
	Repeated Lie: Obama Birther Conspiracy Theory Sarah Palin says that the 'birthers' are in the right for trying to make an issue out of the idea that Obama was not born in America even though all t "I think its a fair question just like I think past associations and past voting records. All of that is fair game. You know, Ive got to tell you too, I think our campaign, the McCain-Palin campaign didnt do a good enough job in that area. We didnt call out Obama and some of his associates on their records and what their beliefs were, and perhaps what their future plans were, and I dont think that was fair to voters to not have done our job as candidates and a campaign to bring to light a lot of things that now were seeing manifest in the administration."
08/07/09	Sarah Palin			Social Network	2010 Health Care Reform Act
	Repeated Lie: Health Care Euthanasia "Palin falsely claimed in her Facebook page that my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama's death panel so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their level of productivity in society, whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil ."
06/06/09	Sarah Palin				Government
	"Sarah Palin, in delivering a speech in Anchorage, repeatedly lifted from an article written by Newt Gingrich and Craig Shirley without proper attribution, a charge which Palin denied."
05/21/09	Sarah Palin				Business & Economy
	"Sarah Palin vetoed state lawmakers' acceptance of $26.8 million of federal stimulus money for energy cost relief, falsely stating that strings were attached that would have mandated communities to adopt federal building codes."
04/12/09	Sarah Palin				Government
	"Gov. Sarah Palin denied asking Sen. Mark Begich to resign from his seat after criminal convictions against former Sen. Ted Stevens were thrown out. I didn't call on Begich to step down, she said during a press conference at the Capitol. However, the same day, she told the Empire, I'd love to see a fair special election, I can't see how Mark Begich would argue that. It's not clear how a special election could come about without Begich resigning."
09/15/08	Sarah Palin
	"During her speech to the RNC, Palin claims that the teleprompter got messed up, I couldnt follow it, and I just decided Id just talk to the people in front of me . That false story has largely been debunked by reporters who were there."
09/12/08	Sarah Palin
	"She claimed that Alaska produces nearly 20 percent of the U.S. domestic supply of energy when facts show it is actually 3.5 percent (and 4.8% if strictly talking US Oil Consumption and 14% if talking US oil production)."
09/08/08	Sarah Palin
	"Palin deceived Americans by saying she put a state jet on Ebay when in fact it failed to sell three times and was eventually sold through a Broker, also a Palin supporter, at a $600,000 loss."
09/07/08	Sarah Palin
	"Palin lied about firing her personal chef as Governor in an attempt to make her look more fiscally responsible. The chef was actually reassigned because Palin spent so little time at the governor's mansion."
