The NY Times keeps it coming.

"Gov. Sarah Palin lives by the maxim that all politics is local, not to mention personal.

So when there was a vacancy at the top of the State Division of Agriculture, she appointed a high school classmate, Franci Havemeister, to the $95,000-a-year directorship. A former real estate agent, Ms. Havemeister cited her childhood love of cows as a qualification for running the roughly $2 million agency.

Ms. Havemeister was one of at least five schoolmates Ms. Palin hired, often at salaries far exceeding their private sector wages."

Gee, I don't have to read the Times any more. I can come here to read the Daily Drivel.

Yes, I read rather than parrot propaganda. That's your specialty.

So anything negative about Palin is now sexist and propaganda? Hmmmmmmm It's too bad the McCain camp won't allow her to talk to the press to address these issues.

Not at all. Actually, the propagand artists changed the topic of this thread.

The topic was the Times and their propaganda.

Do you think that Bammy doesn't have friends working for him?
