Swift Defends Palin
WILLIAMSTOWN — Former acting Gov. Jane Swift had a reputation as a political pit bull around the Statehouse and now she's reprising that role for Sen. John McCain's presidential campaign.
Now one of the state's best-known Republicans is heading up a truth squad to respond to Democratic criticisms of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, McCain's running mate. Swift said in a statement issued Tuesday the group would rebut what she called "vile rumors and smears" against Palin, her family and her friends.
 Last week at the Republican National Convention, Swift headlined a news conference that complained, in part, about supermarket tabloid attacks on Palin. Swift was the state's first woman chief executive, completing the term of former Gov. A. Paul Cellucci after he resigned in 2001 to become U.S. ambassador to Canada.
Swift, who lives in Williamstown, has been active with the McCain campaign as an education policy adviser.
Memorial Mass for 9/11
PITTSFIELD — It's hard to believe that it's been seven years since the Sept. 11th terrorist attacks, but Thursday will mark the seventh anniversary of what many would call the darkest day in our nation's history.
A Memorial Mass is being held tomorrow at St. Charles' Church at 89 Briggs Ave. in Pittsfield. The Mass is being held in remembrance of all those who lost their lives to the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center in New York City, the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., and in Shanksville, Pa. The Mass will begin at 9 on Thursday morning.

The State of Alaska had to pass a law because on city sent bills to rape victims to cover the cost of the exam and rape kit.
That town - Wasilla.
And don't tell me that Palin didn't support the policy. She was the frickin' mayor of this 6000 person town and it became an issue that the legislature had to take up to correct. Palin knew about it and, at best, did NOTHING.
