Has Wikipedia made a scoop..or a droop ?
« on: August 29, 2008, 01:35:04 AM »
  This morning, about 7:00 AM EST I went to Wikipedia just to find some facts concerning Sarah Palin, Gov of Alaska.  Before you say it:
   yes I am aware that Wikipedia is a reader contributed source..but I figured any facts/figures and hard info would be sorted out by
  now and I could ignore opinions.
      Palin has an exciting bio for most of us: child of a science teacher /track coach she is an ardent hunter & life member of NRA.
   A first runner-up for Miss Alaska, she competes in distance runs.  Her husband Todd is a Yuipik Eskimo and the family are dedicated
   Christians, holding the proper values (IMO), and Todd competes in the "Iron Horse", longest snowmobile race in the world..
  Todd is an oil field operator on the north slope and their eldest son, track joined the Army last September, is assigned to an infantry
  brigade and will be deployed to the war zone this month.
      Palin won the governorship against her party's "chosen" and has cleaned up state govt. without regard to party.   
     

  CORRECTION:  My Misread..  no "scoop"..but  still an interesting possibility...
If you don't want the truth, don't ask me.  If you want something sugar coated...go eat a donut !  (anon)
