Palin: I have been ‘an open book’ and have had to answer questions ‘every day.’
And what book would that be? :dunce:



from ThinkProgress:



Palin: I have been ‘an open book’ and have had to answer questions ‘every day.’»

Continuing her tour among friendly-only interviewers, Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) appeared on the Laura Ingraham show today and declared it’s time voters “start…demanding answers of candidates.” Of course, she wasn’t referring to the McCain-Palin campaign, which she described as “an open book”:

Laura, it’s so important for your listeners to start asking those questions and demanding answers of candidates. We certainly — John McCain and I — our lives are an open book. We’re called on the carpet every day, demanded of us to answer questions and I don’t see that on the other side.


Listen here: http://thinkprogress.org/2008/10/09/palin-open-book/


Palin has refused to give a single news conference, and has taken open questions from her traveling press corps just once — and for fifteen minutes. Though she has granted right-wing Sean Hannity three interviews (better compared to infomercials), she has yet to talk with NBC, CNN, or MSNBC.

Transcript:

PALIN: Laura, it’s so important for your listeners to start asking those questions and demanding answers of candidates. We certainly — John McCain and I — our lives are an open book. We’re called on the carpet every day, demanded of us to answer questions and I don’t see that on the other side. I don’t see the other ticket being asked to be truthful and give these details that American voters are deserving and your listeners have gotta have these questions too.

3. An open book who ignored a subpoena.
You can fool some of the people all of the time, and those are the ones Sarah and John concentrate on. Just like George.

neither mccain or palin have revealed their medical records. mccain has yet to reveal his wife's tax records (did he reveal his?). McCain also won't reveal his military records.
