More lies from Sara Palin
 


By JENNIFER LOVEN, Associated Press Writer 1 hour, 53 minutes ago

FAIRFAX, Va. - Republican presidential nominee John McCain and his
running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, equated lawmakers' requests for
funding for special projects with corruption on Wednesday even though
Palin herself has requested nearly $200 million in so-called "earmarks"
this year.


Campaigning in Virginia, McCain suggested earmarks are particularly
shameful at a time when families are struggling with rising food, gas
and home mortgage costs. He vowed again to veto any bill that contains
such funding.

"I got an old ink pen, my friends, and the first pork barrel-laden
earmark, big-spending bill that comes across my desk, I will veto it.
You will know their names. I will make them famous and we'll stop this
corruption," McCain said during a rally at a park in suburban
Washington, D.C.

Palin has sought $197 million worth of earmarks for 2009, down about 25
percent from the $256 million she sought in the 2008 budget year. As
mayor of tiny Wasilla, Alaska, she hired a lobbyist to seek federal
money for special projects. Wasilla obtained 14 earmarks, totaling $27
million, between 2000-2003, according to Taxpayers for Common Sense.

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama hasn't asked for any
earmarks this year. The Illinois senator sought $311 million in such
funding last year. McCain, an Arizona senator, doesn't seek earmarks for
his state.

Undaunted by his running mate's ties to earmarks, McCain said: "I've
fought corruption, and it didn't matter if it was Democrats or
Republican, and so has Sarah Palin."

Palin said she has "championed earmark reform" as governor and "reformed
the abuses of earmarks in our state." Now, she said, she is ready to
join McCain in Washington "so we can end the corrupt practice of abusive
earmarks after all."

Scary to think another lying, cheating, bull****ting, brainless.
societal-spliting Republican moron has a chance of being a heartbeat
away from a president a couple of footsteps from the grave.

snicker. poor, Jimme, snip and run. notice these fools wanna talk
about everything except the issues America cares about. The Republican
Party has brought us the biggest Federal Deficit in the History of
the world, war without end, and massive corruption. Of course Jimme
and his ilk don't want to talk about the issues and the candidates.
They know better.

Is this from the same source that said she cut funding for special ed
in Alaska, before it was proven by the state budget records, publicly
available, that she actually raised it? Or is this the one that said
her son wasn't her own kid? Oh wait, that was proved false too. Oh.
Maybe it's the one that said she was seen with D.B. Cooper and Bigfoot
at Space Mountain in Euro Disney.

The people launching all the internet BS at her don't seem to realize
that the more ludicrous it is, and the more of it gets proved false,
the more it not only honks voters off but provides her armor against
other stuff because all McCain and Palin have to do is point to the
ones proven false and that blew back on the media when they bit on
them and say it's the same BS all over again.

And what does any of it have to do with sci.military.naval? Other than
John McCain being a pilot and his father and grandfather being navy
men too?

Here's an interesting tidbit. With the Seven Little Schitts "censoring"
themselves, this has become a more pleasant place, even if there are
very few boating related posts. Herring is rambling about his crappy
golf game and his future move to the land of large cockroaches, Loogy is
drooling as usual, there are far fewer posts from DK, JustWait is
discussing how badly he's going to damage that p.o.s. wood boat before
he dumps it off on someone else...

Perhaps they can all move entirely over to Chuck's joint, where SW Tom
rules the roost with b.s. about the gas mileage he gets out of that etec.
