[Mark Crispin Miller] Two heroes are now homeless
December 13th, 2008
Over a Thousand changes on Palin’s Wikipedia “history” in the last 24 hours! The Ministry of Truth is Alive and Well. HERE is the latest bullshit entry, same link of course, but just LOOK at the difference in this Story ALONE. See the Original post below for what was found on Wiki this morning. This does not bode well for McCain’s “Hail Mary” pass, his poor judgement has forced a podunk into the limelight, and meanwhile Talking Points Memo for one is One the Troopergate case, which has been scrubbed too. Excuse me, but WHAT are they trying to HIDE if they have to do this?
When on June 6, 2007, the Alaska Creamery Board recommended closing Matanuska Maid Dairy, an unprofitable state-owned business, Palin objected, citing concern for the impact on dairy farmers and the fact that the dairy had just received $600,000 in state money. When Palin found out that the Board of Agriculture and Conservation appoints Creamery Board members, she replaced the entire membership of the Board of Agriculture and Conservation.[22][53] The new board reversed the decision to close the dairy, but later in 2007, with Palin’s support, the unprofitable business was put up for sale. There were no offers in December 2007, when the minimum bid was set at $3.35 million,[54][55] and the dairy was closed that month. In August 2008, the Anchorage plant was purchased for $1.5 million, the new minimum bid; the purchaser plans to convert it into heated storage units.
More news about the Matanuska Milk Maid (Palin). She ran on a “clear and transparent” Govt platform?Does this remind you of anyone? Bush, Cheney, Rove et al. Another bizarre and irresponsible decision by Insane in the Membrane McCain.
“In what has quickly become one of the most costly and poorly thought out decisions since former Governor Murkowski bought the ill fated jet, Governor Palin’s decision to keep open the failing Matanuska Maid Dairy has culminated in her ordering a gag on employees from sharing public information about Mat Maid’s questionable business practices.
Has being open and transparent gone out of style?”

Matanuska Maid Dairy closure
When the Alaska Creamery Board recommended closing Matanuska Maid Dairy, an unprofitable state-owned business, Palin objected, citing concern for the impact on dairy farmers and the fact that the dairy had just received $600,000 in state money. When Palin learned that only the Board of Agriculture and Conservation could appoint Creamery Board members, she simply replaced the entire membership of the Board of Agriculture and Conservation.<12><32> The new board, led by businesswoman Kristan Cole, reversed the decision to close the dairy.<32> The new board approved milk price increases offered by the dairy in an attempt to control fiscal losses, even though milk from Washington was already offered in Alaskan stores at lower prices.<33> In the end, the dairy was forced to close, and the state tried to sell the assets to pay off its debts but received no bids.<[br />
