Tell me it isn't true... But then again she opposes abortion even in cases of incest or rape. I guess this is what we call executive experience?

I find it hard to believe she had no knowledge of the town rebuking a law to make rape exams free. My cousin is the mayor of a small town and she is informed of everything on a daily basis. Maybe it wasn't considered important or not a priority?

I would think making them free would work, especially if the rapist is caught, charge the perp, not the victim.

This was a town of 7000. If she didn't know, then she wasn't a very effective mayor in my opinion. Talk about being kicked while you're down. I wonder what happens under her rule while she's governor of a state of 900,000? I certainly don't want her to be 2nd in command of my country.

voters the McCain/Palin ticket should research Palin carefully.

What you can find now, documented is very very scary!

Thanks Jo,

I'm trying to keep the rules in mind.

This is concerning; thank you for the article.
I do hope 1) she has had an epiphany that things like this are wrong, should not be done and when a problem in the system is discovered it should be corrected immediately and 2) that she addresses this particular situation at some point openly.
