Not really. Since Palin was FOR it. According to you, Palin's earmarks were all "good", remember? Count Earmarkula. |

Her hypocrisy and lying is on a level with FB. He can relate.
She not only supported the Bridge To Nowhere at $225,000,000 she STRONGLY supported it and worked with Stephens on it until it failed to be funded by Congress. She then read the handwriting on the wall and decided to oppose it and Stephens.
Now I hear her stumping with the lie, saying she opposed the bridge and earmarks in a state that leads the nation in earmarks!! Its being reported as a lie on news networks everywhere but they cynically keep it as part of the stump speech because they have painted the media as being in a jihad against her.
These two set a new standard for cynicism, hypocrisy and falsehood.

Still defending Palin, FB? My jaw dropped when you tried to claim that Palin's earmarks are all good. You still haven't explained the difference between a good and bad earmark...remember, Palin was FOR the bridge to nowhere before she was AGAINST it.
Never thought you'd turn into a tax vampire over an ordinary, ethically-challenged Republican, FB. She built a monument to herself that, on a per capita basis, makes our last mayors look altruistic.
From WSJ:

Palin's Hockey Rink Leads
To Legal Trouble in Town She Led
WASILLA, Alaska -- The biggest project that Sarah Palin undertook as mayor of this small town was an indoor sports complex, where locals played hockey, soccer, and basketball, especially during the long, dark Alaskan winters.
The only catch was that the city began building roads and installing utilities for the project before it had unchallenged title to the land. The misstep led to years of litigation and at least $1.3 million in extra costs for a small municipality with a small budget. What was to be Ms. Palin's legacy has turned into a financial mess that continues to plague Wasilla.
Shilling for Palin. How sad.
Is that sadder than being a dupe for Obama/Biden? |

As KO sez:"stretching the bounds of spin".
Why do Americans put such faith in cronic liars?
Dupes? No! Stupes!
And Conan, you're either playing stupid or.....
Palin's a lying deceptive Beach. Have we not endured such non sense long enough out of the Whitewash House. Palin has NO integrity. The whole world is watching!
Enough!Does she have a person with a fire extinguisher following her, because "liar, liar your pants are on fire" Does she have a personal carpenter with her, because like Pinocchio, she will need that growing nose filed down. The lies and half truths are growing exponentially.
But will the lies make the nightly news?

Let's not forget that she still kept the money, even after she flip flopped on the bridge. |

Let's set facts straight. SHE didn't keep any money, the state of Alaska did. What's new in HuffPo, Dailykos, and Pravda this morning? |

SHE took credit for stopping the bridge to nowhere (falsely)--shouldn't she take personal responsibility for keeping the money? I mean, couldn't she say "thanks, but no thanks" to the money? |

Dweeb. What's wrong with Hufpo, Dailykos, and even Pravda .... all those pubs and web sites and blogs you mention are free press. Whereas, Rupert Murdoch displays unfair and unbalanced news services. And his reach is far greater than those you defame. Sorry you are so afraid of opinions and scared to be learned. Boooo! Hahahahaha.... |

Correction: While Robert Murdoch owns Fox Network and recently acquired the Wall Street Journal, it is Time-Warner that owns CNN. The nationwide mass media is becoming more concentrated in fewer owners; however, it is not yet one gigantic Robert Murdoch monolith. Other multinational corporations own the other major networks: CBS - Westinghouse ABC - Disney NBC/MSNBC - GE Hope this clarifies. |
