From the AP story:

I’m confused. I don’t recall any claims by either Palin or Mccain that she was ever in Iraq. I heard she was in Kuwait, and there are pictures of her visiting wounded troops so I’m sure that’s correct.
What is going on here?

So, what's the point, if she was on the border or crossed over it. Does she get a big "atagirl" is she crossed some imaginary line? She WAS in the middle east, duh.
Lib's are so hateful. Obama wanted to stay on the issues. is this the major issue of the campaign?
Empty suit!

Even more outrageous: Not only has she never visited Nigeria, but she also never claimed to have visited Nigeria! This is an OUTRAGE! HOW DARE SHE LIE LIKE THAT!
In seriousness, the Democrats' heads are so full of "nuance" that they don't even know the difference between what the word lie actually means.

CNN reports:
The Boston Globe reported Saturday that Palin visited the Iraqi side of a border crossing but never journeyed past the checkpoint.
Her feet were standing on Iraqi soil. Therefore she visited Iraq. Mainly, she was visiting wounded troops recovering in Kuwait.

So the best they can do is gripe about a technicality of whether she actually did or didn't cross over the exact Kuwait/Iraq line? This is lame. The Obamaniacs have no idea what they are doing.
They really are clueless. She never claimed she was in Iraq. People know she's been to Germany and Kuwait though, and her son is now in Iraq. I don't get what they are trying to say with this line of bulls**t.
To: Chet 99
She’s already said she hasn’t traveled much, so what is the “big” deal here? That she hasn’t stepped foot in Iraq? OMG!! How could she possibly be qualified for VP then?? Stoopid!!

I thought Obama was going to focus on issues:? He is.
NPR had a segment this week where they interviewed a pig farmer that was was on the air, live, as he tried to put lipstick on a pig.
That was a very interesting issue. I learned a lot about it.

They are coming unhinged, because she never claimed she was in Iraq, I think we're getting a taste of what lies in store for us over the next couple of weeks. What's essentially happened is they've made up a headline ("Palin was never in Iraq") which implies that McCain/Palin claimed she had been (not true). Now the other media outlets are free to pick up on the phony headline and get Obama's take on it in order to write a new deceptive headline ("Obama camp suggests lies over Palin visit to Iraq.") The magnitude of their collusion is stunning. Even when you know it's been going on for years -- to be confronted with it so blatently is off putting.

To: Chet 99
questions about her experience have been fueled by her relatively brief tenure in office, as well as a dearth of foreign travel.The questions have been fueled by Obama campaign supporters disguised as journalists.
That's where the fuel has come from.

“Pretty slick.”
Yup, and as most people don’t pay much attention initially, don’t retain that it was unnamed sources, or anonymous sources, they will only pick up on the scandal.
Real slick.

What is going on here? Collusion between Obama's campaign and the media, that's what's going on here. Stunning.

Reading the AP article, it is now apparent that Sarah Palin did not go far enough into Iraq in the opinion of Obama! She did not have permission to enter Iraq beyond the border outpost. Left asked, did Obama go far enough enough into the Military Hospital in Germany. Sorry, Obama refused to go up to the Hospital border without fawning ‘Media’ escort!
