Another Alaska reporter calls Palin out on her hypocrisy.

Just in case you think I am in the minority up here when it comes to being disgusted with Klondike Kardashian's attempt to lie about her accomplishments, this was what Craig Medred wrote at Alaska Dispatch about Palin's sudden distaste for "cronyism."

Palin claims: 

"I've been fighting this type of corruption and cronyism my entire political career. For years Alaskans suspected that our lawmakers and state administrators were in the pockets of the big oil companies to the detriment of ordinary Alaskans. We knew we were being taken for a ride, but it took FBI wiretaps to finally capture lawmakers in the act of selling their votes. In the wake of politicos being carted off to prison, my administration enacted reforms based on transparency and accountability to prevent this from happening again."

These claims are largely and simply a lie. 

Palin didn't spend her political career fighting corruption. And the Palin administration was all about cronyism. The big oil companies in Alaska did, and to some extent still do, carry undue influence with Alaska politicians. But it's nothing compared to the influence of commercial fishing interests in the fishing industry off the coast of the 49th state. The fishing interests have the kind of influence the oil companies can only dream about. 

Did Palin ever try to do anything to fix this? Anything? 

Well, of course, not. Her hubby is in the fishing business. Protecting his interests was more important than protecting the public's interest. 

It's cronyism at the fundamental level.

Once again it is this insight that Alaskans have about who Sarah Palin REALLY is, that probably explains WHY she won't be attending the premiere of her propaganda film.

We KNOW she is a fake and a fraud, and I absolutely hope that somebody attends that premiere and tells Stephen Bannon that his film is full of shit, and that his subject may be one of the most deeply flawed and unqualified politicians we have seen in our lifetime.

And for those of us up here in Alaska, THAT is really saying something!
