Palin on McCain's pork list in 2001

[Undercurrent]

In 2001, McCain's list of spending that had been approved without the normal budget scrutiny included a $500,000 earmark for a public transportation project in Wasilla. The Arizona senator targeted $1 million in a 2002 spending bill for an emergency communications center in town -- one that local law enforcement has said is redundant and creates confusion.


McCain also criticized $450,000 set aside for an agricultural processing facility in Wasilla that was requested during Palin's tenure as mayor and cleared Congress soon after she left office in 2002. The funding was provided to help direct locally grown produce to schools, prisons and other government institutions, according to Taxpayers for Common Sense, a nonpartisan watchdog group.

2. Note: Reform is the first part of McCain's slogan. Hit them with "Reform".

Vote Obama for real reform.

3. Makes my head spin

She was for it when he was against it.

Then she was against it.

But she did such a good job she must really be for it. Ergo he must be for it since she was so effective. But they're both against it.
