Palin's Tax Records

By The Daily Dish

They've been released - on time on a Friday afternoon. Good for McCain and Palin. More transparency, please. And have at 'em, tax bloggers.

Now, when are we going to get some record of Trig's birth and parentage from the hospital or the doctor? It's been over a month now and still nada. Some basic record confirming Palin's eight-month special needs pregnancy, amiocentesis, labor and birth would be immensely easy to find and release - even off the record - to news organizations. And yet the McCainiacs refuse to even go near it and demonize anyone who dares ask for something that must be extremely well documented and easily found. They have stated on the record that Sarah Palin is Trig's biological mother. But they refuse to provide one iota of confirming evidence.

I mean: what's the problem here? Why is this so hard?

And no, I haven't let the basic issue of accountability and transparency go. Never. It's my job.
