AK did not sell the airplane on eBay. Indeed it was listed there, but sold via different channel.

Ya gotta get to nearly the last paragraph before the author admits it was fiscally prudent to sell the aircraft, despite its regular use.

They DID sell the plane on eBay. Listing an item for sale is selling. They may not have closed the deal there, but they did sell on eBay.

That cracked me up when I saw that. The LA Slimes is pathetic. Palin's words were "I put it on Ebay." Period.

They then go on about how she implied it sold there. Okay, I guess it's implied if you're trying to find a scandal where there isn't one.

She said the aircraft was put on Ebay. It was put on Ebay. Oh, the nerve of her!!!!!!

[Not gonna take it anymore]

In her speech, Sarah Palin said she put the jet on ebay.

Not that is was sold there.
