Was Palin FOR the Bridge to Nowhere until America demanded such funding be stopped?

Question

.after the funding had dried up, then she was against it.

She's right, she really HAS done some things Senator Obama hasn't...or wouldn't.

Answer 1

Sure she was. In fact more of her corruption is being exposed as we watch. Vindictive, Lying, etc are all coming to light. She even demanded removal of books from public library shelves. Perhaps she as lived too close to Russia for too long ?

Answer 2

SHE SURE DID VOTE AGAINST   GROUP HOMES  FOR YOUNG PREGNANT MOTHERS!!! , SHE WAS OR IS FROM THE ALASKAN INDEP PARTY, THATS WHY SHE WENT AGAINST REPUB, AND FOILED THEM OUT

Answer 3

They all lie. Obama is the biggest liar of them all. What's your point?  Because it's common knowledge politicians fudge the truth and tell lies.

Answer 4

Can you give a direct quote where she states she was for this project or even that she voted for it and then was against it?  

Answer 5

You are a fool, You are not fit to wipe her boots. Your Obama has NEVER stood up to anythng or anyone.  

Answer 6

You can't expect her to be pretty AND honest can you?

Answer 7

Yes she was for it when she was using it as a talking point while she was running for governor. After she was made governor, suddenly, she was against it.  

Answer 8

Yes and with gull stood and announced that she was always against it. Flipper and the Mermaid is not what American needs.

Obama-Biden 08

Answer 9

That was one of the glaring lies of the speech.

Answer 10

Yes, she did. The Federal government didn't pay up as much as she wanted, so she dropped it.  The Federal money for the bridge was NOT sent back, but instead given to the people.

She wanted her brother-in-law fired and wanted the librarian of Wassilla fired for refusing to remove "offensive" books.

She came in as the mayor of Wasilla (population 5,000 at the time) with 0 debt and left it with a debt of 22 million.  

Answer 11

She's got my vote

Answer 12

Yep.  And according to reports, she kept the money the government had already allocated for the bridge.  She said "no thanks", but kept the money.  That's pretty deceitful isn't it?

Answer 13

She absolutely was.  People will call it a "smear", but it's a matter of public record.  She didn't kill that bill, congress did.  And she (or rather Alaska) kept quite a bit of that money even after the bridge bill went to pot.

Answer 14

Great, now porkbarrel spending?

And I thought it was Democrats behind it!

Answer 15

i agree she is all over the place in her speech, she was for the bridge and then changed her mind, and then lied about it like its not on tape come on get real

Obama'08

Answer 16

She was for the Bridge to Nowhere and for ear marks until she was against them too.

Answer 17

Pretty much, yeah.

Answer 18

She is just another crooked politician. Look at the new revelations how how she used her position in power to fire a police officer who divorced her sister.

Answer 19

When she repeated that tonight I was astounded, since it was reported in the news that she was all for the bridge funding until Congress took it back, then was scrambling to try to fund it with matching funds...I would have thought the speech writers would have taken that out.
