A review of Palin's gubernatorial disclosure filings indicates that she failed to report her stake in the company on the form that requires candidates for governor to disclose any interest in a nonpublicly traded company.

It has nothing at all to do with their tax returns.
What I want to know is how many official state vehicles were washed at that car wash.

Please give us your Economic thoughts on this partial glimpse into the Governor's Alaska budget. You know....the budget Obama compared to his Executive experience of running his campaign in chatting with Anderson Cooper.

http://www.gov.state.ak.us/omb/08_OM...mendCharts.pdf
AC: Some Republican critics say, you don’t have the experience to handle a situation like this [Hurricane Gustav]. They’ve in fact said that Governor Palin has more executive experience as mayor of a small town and as governor of a big state like Alaska. What’s your response?


BO: Well, you know, my understanding is that, uh, Governor Palin’s town of Wasilly [sic] has, uh, 50 employees, uh, uh, we’ve got 2500, uh, in this campaign. I think their budget is maybe $12 million a year. Uh, uh, we have a budget of about three times that just for the month. Uh, so I think that, uh, our ability to manage large systems, uh, and to, uh, execute, uh, I think has been made clear over the last couple of years. Uh, and certainly, in terms of, uh, the legislation that I’ve passed just dealing with this issue post-Katrina, uh, of how we handle emergency management. The fact that, uh, many of my recommendations were adopted and are being put in place, uh, as we speak indicates to extent to which we can provide the kinds of support and good service that the American people expect.


TO EXECUTE? hahahaha Execute what? Some commercials and movies. TYPICAL lawyer using roots of words to change the meaning?


One small thing. The decisions made by Obama within his own campaign doesn't in any way effect the employees of it, where as being a Governor, and making decisions on behalf of your constituents, definitly has an impact on their day to day lives.

Typical liberal topic switch when they get owned.

So find some more BS propaganda.

Yet with his mighty executive experience and leadership ability he's not able to call of the democrat attack dogs from going after her family... despite his and Biden's repeated pleas.

Can't control a work force of only 2,500.... ?

Did you read further down where she started a company called "Rouge Cou"
which translates into "Red Neck"? What is that about?

Palin Scrubbing Turns Up an Undeclared Car Wash | The Trail | washingtonpost.com
Palin's gubernatorial disclosure filings also reveal her involvement in another failed startup -- a marketing business which was to go by the name Rouge Cou, which evidently is a literal French translation of "red neck." On the 2005 form, Palin describes the firm as one for which she secured a license but did not conduct any business.
