You know, it really isn't that big of a deal to me. But... the comics must love it. This whole story has such colorful details, you just know they're just going to have a field day with this.
They are no smarter at huffingtonpost than they are at CNN. (Geez, and you guys want to run the economy)
Ok, I'll do this one more time since my last post got deleted (Since we don't want trouble with the IRS - and so you can understand - we'll make it overly simplistic) :
Purchase Price (2005) - $2,700.000
Depreciation (2005) - $385,714
Depreciation (2006) - $385,714
Depreciation (2007) - Don't know the timing, so we'll forget it
Basis (2007) - $1,928,572
Sales Price (2007) - $2,100,000
Capital Gain $171,428
Sales Commission - $31,000
THis was not a luxury plane used by her predisesor, this was a plane that was used to transport prisoners to Last chance state Arizona. The plane was NEVER sold on EBAY. She embelished this. It was sold to an investor for 300K less than asking price. NOT ON EBAY.
Every 3 or four hours I find out another one of her lies. I guess in her part of Alaska, they may not have high speed internet yet
Get your facts right
This WAS the former gov plane which represented his coruption, it was placed on e -bay and then sold with some help.
But what do I expect, Obamikes spinning, spinning
Great entertainment!

There is not one liberal on this board who would understand this.
Now, see the cap gains, Obama wants to hit that for another 30% tax. So, this is a perfect example of what Obama would do to us. Screw us all over.
This liberal lie has been debunked, she did not say she sold it, she said she put it on ebay.
You also forgot to state that the person before her, well, they overpaid for the plane and Sarah turned it into a profit for the people.
The bottom line, which most of the libs seems to be missing, is that she was not going to keep a private jet and pilot to fly her around -- she travels on commercial airlines (coach section) like everyone else. She also dispensed with the guv's chauffeur and cook. She drives herself and cooks her family's meals.
Oh, but that's all just so wrong, isn't it, libs? What a bunch of elitists!
Great, is she also going to be dismissing McCain's 'elitist' private jet, his chauffeur and his cook or are Repubs going to try and spin that as all Cindy's as usual?
I'm an independent, formerly a Republican prior to the party no longer being recognizable to me and this "lib lies" stuff makes those defending her on the issue sound as ignorant as all the liberals that stomped and threw a fit when backing Clinton when he said he did not have sex with that woman. (Or the did not inhale issue as some have pointed out.)
You know you can back a candidate and still admit that they are flawed or that they lie. This is politics we're talking about. All politician's lie. Misconstruing, implying and misdirection are still lies at the heart of it. If the shoe was on the other foot you'd scream Lie from the top of every mountain.
Last but not least some of you need to stop using the term debunk. Debunk means to prove false. Splitting the hair does not debunking make.

Tell john McCain to get his facts straight either, didn't you see the video?
HE SAID SHE SOLD IT ON EBAY, and made a profit. so in your best case scenario, I guess HES the liar. Ill give you that she said PUT and not sold, but she knew what the heck she was doing and who she was trying to deceive.
I bet they had some interesting words on the bus afterward.
Ill give you this, if I was 72, I would be a little confused too I'm sure. heck, I have trouble finding my keys sometimes even now. I have a grandfather that gets confused all the time about facts. I sure hope my grandfather doesn't have control of the United States someday. YIKES
BTW If you folks think that was a profit, I suspect you worked at Enron as a corporate executive.
Keep em coming, its fun debating with you Georgia pseudo DEM
Hey BRET FARVE JUST SCORED AGAIN, gotta go, be back later
