What other "several of those issues" did they get wrong?
Dude...She as is Obama a political candidate. So are you saying that your precious Thinkprogressive was being honest stating a position she MIGHT have had in 2006 while leaving out a VERY clear position in 2008?

Besides the title of the article in the tri-cityherald was titled
Palin's position on sex education remains "murky".

As in unclear. Now I realize they meant that to mean that her position is still unclear; however, I argue that her recent statement is VERY clear.

The 2006 one however is not so clear.

Question: Will you support funding for abstinence-until-marriage education instead of explicit sex-education programs, school-based clinics, and the distribution of contraceptives in schools?

Answer not quite so clear cut: Yes, the explicit sex-ed programs will not find my support.

I'm for birth control but I'm not for some of the explicit sex education proposed in San Francisco which wants to teach alternative lifestyles.

Also in 2006 she stated she was pro-contraceptives which also was not clear.

So...Yes she could have been more clear in 2006 but she was absolutely clear in 2008 and that information was omitted.
