Some hospitals across the state were doing so, and there is no reason to believe that Sarah Palin had any clue about this. I think the lies on this subject being spread by other website are more sleazy than any purple heart lie about John Kerry.

TrueFaith77, I am aware of one thing she did as governor. She increased the tax rate that oil companies pay to extract the oil in her state. Those companies had been colluding with corrupt legislators for years, and she helped put a stop to what they were doing.

Not to mention that the Alaska State Constitution says that the oil belongs to the people, which means the profits HAD to be given to the people. It is not the same thing as a "windfall profits tax". Yet another outright lie!
