1. Good point. If she uses that "Thanks but No Thanks" line one more time,


I'm going to barf.

2. the reality is much worse than that!
and it makes me crazy, because Reuters broke the kicker the evening of the "she was for it before she was against it" took hold.

The reality is she was *never* against it. She pretended to be against it when the uproar broke out.

#1. SHE TOOK THE "BRIDGE TO NOWHERE" MONEY. They renamed the pork package and gave it to Alaska for "discretionary projects."

ALSO #1. THE DISCRETIONARY PROJECT THEY SPENT IT ON WAS -- TA!DA!
"THE ROAD TO THE BRIDGE TO NOWHERE." This is not made up. They simply redirected the earmark to the access road.
