Thin Ice on National Security Experience
Posted by Adam Blickstein

Just to follow-up on Moira's post, one of the major talking points GOP operatives recite to tout Gov. Palin's experience is her role as Commander-in-Chief of the Alaskan national guard. Too bad even that is a complete fabrication:

Maj. Gen. Craig Campbell, adjutant general of the Alaska National Guard, considers Palin “extremely responsive and smart” and says she is in charge when it comes to in-state services, such as emergencies and natural disasters where the National Guard is the first responder.

But in an interview with The Associated Press on Sunday, he said he and Palin play no role in national defense activities, even when they involve the Alaska National Guard. The entire operation is under federal control, and the governor is not briefed on situations.

Hollow talking points from a increasingly desperate, unprepared and cornered campaign.
