I can see Sarah Palin as trustworthy. However, as close attention as I pay, I don't know enough about her and haven't been exposed to her long enough. Too soon for me to agree with that

The question was, name one politician you trust to tell you the truth. Not, name one politician you would want to be stranded on a deserted island with. ;)

I could name a whole bunch of them. I believe that the majority of members of congress are honest people. Its just the crook that you always here about. There are 535 members of Congress ( Or at least there is supposed to be although there are some vacant House Seats but still quite a few members). Of course there is going to be some unpleasant people but I believe that the large majority of them are honest people and would never accept a money bribe.

Well, being from Minnesota, and as much As i like Tim Pawlenty, I can cite many lies and specific under the table and squestionable money schemes. I can shoot holes in 7 of your top 10, but I won't. My response, ignorance is bliss. I consider often going back to the way I used to think. I read too much thought

I'll bet you that Tim Pawlenty is innocent of any money scheme you might be refering to. Those aren't exactly a "top ten" either but I know what you mean.

Dave Freudenthal. Why? Well, when you are born in a town with a grand total of 100 people, people find out if you lie really fast. Plus, he has not become one of the nation's most popular Governor's for nothing.

I suppose a distinction has to be made between whether I trust them to tell the truth as they think it is and what the truth actually is. Palin strikes me as someone who doesn't have the imagination to tell lies.

Would that face lie to you?

No, no it would not.

Never ever no.
