funny aint it ?
It's actually sad that people stoop to this level and try to hoodwink people into voting for them. It's on both sides of the campaign but the Dems have gone all out assaulting Palin on this very subject.

RE: Fresh from CNN --Obama,Biden voted fo the bridge to nowhere
To be fair, neither Obama or Biden have said lied about voting for it. Palin has lied repeatedly with that 'thanks but no thanks' line. Everybody from snopes to factcheck.com to every 4th grader with internet access has figured that one out.
She must've gotten tired of being called out on that one, because I've noticed she's not said that in quite a while now. Of course, they haven't let her say much of anything lately...

Maybe this exert from the article will speak a little to where the hearts of Obama and Biden fall.
Both Biden and Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama voted to kill a Senate amendment that would have diverted federal funding for the bridge to repair a Louisiana span badly damaged by Hurricane Katrina, Senate records show.
And both voted for the final transportation bill that included the $223 million earmark for the Alaska project.
An amendment offered by Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Oklahoma, would have stripped the money appropriated to connect the Alaskan coastal city of Ketchikan to its airport on sparsely populated Gravina Island and diverted the money to Louisiana.
But Biden andObama and 80 of their colleagues rejected the measure, an amendment to a massive 2005 transportation bill that funded thousands of projects across the country.
"That is probably the most disturbing element of this and the campaigning on the Bridge to Nowhere," said Bill Allison of the Sunlight Foundation, a taxpayer watchdog group. "Because, yes, they had a chance to vote specifically against the Bridge to Nowhere in Alaska to redirect the money to people, to bridges and infrastructure damaged by Hurricane Katrina going in to New Orleans, and they chose not to."

Also Biden lobbied for an earmark to replace a bridge between two vacation communities in Delaware that is in no way in need of replacement. I believe the sum was some 23 million $

Very telling. Yet Bush hates black people.
