Before we get to HBO’s latest lame defense, here’s what the network (and Politico) won’t tell you…

Below are the names of eight people who have gone on the record to declare the book “Game Change” a falsehood, and what they’ve seen of the film (HBO refuses to screen it for them — but never mentions that in the statement) is just as false:

1. Governor Palin, who detailed life on the campaign trail in her autobiography “Going Rogue.” (In an obvious attempt at a publicity stunt, HBO did offer to screen the film for the Governor but, for some creepy reason, only at her home.)

2. Meg Stapleton, the Governor’s former spokeswoman.

3. Jason Recher, who handled vice presidential road operations for the McCain-Palin campaign and was with the governor during nearly every waking moment of the campaign.

4. Tim Crawford, Treasurer of Governor Palin’s PAC.

5. Randy Scheunemann, foreign policy adviser who advised Palin during the ‘08 campaign and who vigorously disputes the book and film’s portrayal of her as anything other than engaged and informed on foreign policy matters.

6. Thomas Van Flein, the Governor’s former lawyer, who was in almost daily contact with Palin during the ‘08 campaign.

7 and 8. Aides Doug McMarlin and Andy Davis.

That’s EIGHT people declaring on the record that it’s all a load of bull.

Here’s all HBO has:

1. Steve Schmidt, a top adviser to the McCain-Palin campaign who only now has come out as one of the book’s “background sources.” This was the genius who suggested McCain suspend his campaign during the financial crisis which, as we all know, is one of the main reasons for the loss....

Of course they made it to destroy her when she ran against Barry.

HBO is in it for the money as well. Millions have been made squeezing her name into, onto, under, over, beside anything one can name.

HBO only made this movie in case Palin threw her hat in the ring for 2012

The same person that did “Recount” did this movie and if you saw Recount, you’ll know how one-sided that movie was and how one-sided “Game Change” will be.

It’s funny listening to lefties trying to rationalize that “Recount” wasn’t biased and that “Game Change” won’t be either.

These people are just self-deluded fools and ignorant to boot.

Facts; “Game Change” is directed by Obama contributor Jay Roach. It stars Ed Harris (Obama and Dem party contributor), Julianne Moore (Obama and Dem contributor), and Woody Harrelson (Dem Party contributor). It’s put out by HBO, whose employees gave 106 times to Obama in 2008 versus 9 to McCain (i.e., 91% Dem).
