Sarah Palin: Hobo Killer?


AP Moscow Idaho. It was revealed today that Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin may have been involved in a rash of hobo killings in north Idaho from 1985-86. Palin is a suspect in at least one of the killings, and a "person of interest" in twelve other unsolved cases.

Republican spokesman Mark Drake admitted that Palin (seen here in a local police surveillance photo) was indeed a chief suspect in the death of Carl "Happy" Foote, in October of 1985, but said that "It was a very long time ago" and that it was "highly unlikely that killing a hobo was even a crime in north Idaho, at that time". Drake added "We in the Republican party have tremendous respect for women of action like Sarah, if she killed a hobo or two, well, we are certain she had a strong patriotic reason for it" Before she became Governor of Alaska, Palin authored the how-to book "101 Hobo Mantraps", which was a moderate success for small publishing house Red State Readers.
