McCain Claims Palin Took No Earmarks as Alaska Governor

John McCain on The View, September 12, 2008

The claim is laughably false.

The thing I don't get is that she was such a great Governor and such an energy policy expert that she was able to send out something like 3,200 dollars to each of her states residents. Yet, at the same time she was milking the Federal Gov. for earmarks worth $1000 per resident, dwarfing the national average. It seems to me that her policy amounts to little more than spend money you don't have and have the Fed. make up the loses.

What is it with Republicans saying "the Democrat party," anyway? Shouldn't the man running for the highest office in the country be above name-calling at this point? I challenge anyone to find a clip of Obama or Biden referring to McCain as a "Republican't"

I fail to see what's so great about being a governor of Alaska and keeping the state out of debt. A small population state that gets huge revenues generated by the oil companies, she even raised taxes on the oil companies so Alaska would get even more money from them. If Governing were a video game she'd be playing on easy with wall clipping and invincibility turned on. Give her Alabama and see how well she does.
