Re: Palin Done

Actually, the bigger lie is that she told congress no thanks to the
bridge to nowhere. She supported the bridge when asked about it in
2006. Then in 2007 it was removed from the state budget because
Congress would no longer provide enough funding. She still accepted
the earmark that was given.
