When John McCain on The View was challenged about putting a candidate on the ticket who has been one of the most aggressive people in the country in terms of going after federal earmarks he responded. "Not as governor she didn't."
Well, you might want to check your facts there, Senator McCain.
Here they are. Dated February 15, 2008. Sarah Palin's earmark requests for FY 2009.
Is she going to withdraw these requests?
This is a legitimate question. John McCain has built his campaign around his opposition to earmarks and then he chose a running mate who is the number one earmark requester in the country.
This is a bloody joke, right?
Josh Marshall is following this closely. Some good videos that everyone should watch.
