[kj] Snopes.com new entry on Sarah Palin library book ban

[B. Oliver Sheppard]

Dick Cheney has been in every GOP administration since the Ford years in 
the 1970s.

What a lot of Americans don't understand is this: When you vote for the 
President and Vice Presidet, you are not just vting for two people, or 
eve two symbolic figureheads. You are voting, essentially, for the whole 
crew that will come along with them, their advisers and handlers, who 
will populate the entirety of the executive branch of the government f 
the united states.

Bush Jr's team is a lot of recycled Reaganites. Another GOP 
administration elected into the executive branch would probably keep 
recycling these same fucking people in cabinet posts, undersecretary 
positions, unelected positions like Sec'y of State, Sec'y o Labor. It 
will be a lot of the same damned GOP loyalists who get appointed to all 
these very important departments, all of which are under the 
directorship of the executive branch. Cheney might very well find some 
cabinet post in a new McCain administration (or he may be so unpopular 
that he wouldn't). But a lot of the same ideologues, minders, handlers, 
policy wonks, etc., will be in the McCain cohort, the same radical righ 
ideologues that have been hangers-on since Reagan's days.
