The Palin Wink - doesn't a wink mean you're lying?

I didn't see that part of the debate so I don't know what she was saying when she winked, but isn't a wink often used to say "haha, I'm just saying that, but between you and I, we both know it's a lie..."

Is that the context she was doing it in?

1. I was telling my wife that tonight a wink is something you do to let your audience

know you are both in on the "joke" or the "bullshit" at hand.

2. She winked to her dad, I believe.

Jest a big ol' howdy there!

3. I was just gonna post that..

A person winks to let others in-the-know that the con is on.

WTF?
