If Sarah Palin says it, it must be true. Even when, you know, it’s a bald-faced lie:

Notes Steve Benen:

The report was unambiguous — Palin “abused her power.” She “violated” the “Alaska Executive Branch Ethics Act.” Even Sarah Palin can read this and understand the plain meaning of basic words.

This makes Palin’s breathtaking lies all the more remarkable. She said the report was “very clear” that she hadn’t done anything “unethical” and there was “no abuse of power” at all. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a politician lie so brazenly.

I don’t think you understand. We know in our hearts and our guts that Sarah Palin is one of us. That makes these “facts” of which you speak irrelevant. Report? Pshaw. Sarah Palin told us what’s what. And reality is what she says it is.
