HRPKathy:
So you think she was saying “no thanks” for the project? So this project came from congress? Because that’s who she claims to have said no thanks to. “I told congress, thanks but no thanks.” The only thing she was receiving from congress was money, which she still accepted. So do you want to try again? What was she saying “no thanks” to if not the money? Ohhhh. So it was because Biden and Obama voted for it, she was FORCED to accept it. I see, as governor of her state, she isn’t permitted to turn down federal dollars.
You’re right that I don’t know the money was wasted on something else. But are you saying that had they not gotten the earmarked, bridge to nowhere funds, there would have be no infrastructure repair or development? The state had no plans for this until the bridge to nowhere project got axed? You know that’s crap, and the bridge to nowhere funds was simply a surplus to her existing budget. I’m sure she didn’t have too much trouble finding useful was to use the money, and none of it was “wasted.”
Again, all this other stuff is just noise to distract from the single truth that Sarah Palin lied in her RNC speech. “I told congress ‘thanks but no thanks’” <- That’s a lie.
