Sarah Palin 'Bridge To Nowhere' Video Montage

Sarah Palin's stump speeches have largely stuck to the same script (what the AP describes as "a greatest hits of her convention speech). However, one line that constantly shows up is that Palin said "thanks, but no thanks, to that 'bridge to nowhere.'" Palin's claim of opposing the 'bridge to nowhere' has proven to be a stretch, yet she keeps repeating the same line. Watch Palin use this exact line in seven different stump speeches since the end of the Republican Convention.

How to defuse a Palin problem: Exaggerate and Misdirect

Story: Palin asks the city librarian about having books banned, several times. (This is not challenged by the McCain camp.)

Exaggeration: Put a fake list of books out on the Internet claiming that Palin tried to get them banned.

Misdirect: The media talks about the hoax and not the issue of trying to censor books.

Story: Palin likes to shoot wolves from planes, has shot and skinned moose, and wants the Polar Bear off the endangered list.

Exaggeration: Put on the Internet that Palin shot 50 moose in one day.

Misdirect: Media keys on lie and not her treatment of animals and conservation record.

Which she kept the $300 million of the tax payer's money. Call it what it really is--Scripted

[brueso]

Rule One for actors is never let them see you act. This clip collection shows how weak her feigned 'golly gee" schtick is.

Is that who you want a heartbeat away from the Presidency, America?

When is the national media going to hold the Grumpy McSame campaign accountable for not allowing Palin to be asked pertinent questions by them?

The media has to be allowed to get the answers we the people deserve. There are too many unanswered questions which are important to frame the correct identity of Palin.

What is it are they hiding or defending her from?
Why does she keep repeating lies, untruths and twisting the facts when giving speeches?
Why did she keep the millions of dollars for the bridge and never built it?
Why did she cut the funding for teen mothers?
Why did she charge the state per diem while she was living in her own home?
Why does she keep saying she sold the state airplane on eBay, when it has been proven she did not?
Why does she keep repeating lies about Obama on the stump which have been proven to be false?

There are many other questions, and the sexism charges are getting old. Come on media, stop fawning and drooling over this woman and do your job. Get the facts and the truth.

BRIDGE TO NOWHERE OR PORK BARREL SPENDING SENATOR STYLE

Here is a quote for from the Chicago Daily Observer on Tuesday, September 8th. (“Chicago Daily Observer” a 5-day-a-week commentary from the center-right-with enough Democratic and liberal opinion to give it an edge. Tom Roeser)

"Now that Alaska is front and center in the news again, it is a good time to catch up on a favorite story, The Bridge to Nowhere, using the Washington Post US Congress Votes Database.

Though Gov. Palin originally supported the earmark spending on the Ketchikan bridge (“to nowhere), she eventually killed the project, choosing to spend Federal money on other infrastructure programs.

However, Sen. Biden and Sen. Obama voted for funding the Bridge, even when given a second chance by Sen. Tom Coburn, who proposed shifting earmark funds to Katrina relief.

Sen. McCain did not vote on the Coburn Amendment, though he is on record as opposing the Ketchikan bridge earmark. "

Here is a url for the vote on the amendment:

http://projects.washingtonpost.com/congress/109/senate/1/votes/262/

Keeping the money that Congress allotted to your state is one thing but voting for the pork barrel in the first place and voting nay on an amendment to divert the funds to Katrina victims is quite another? The reason Alaska got the money without the bridge is that the Senate voted Nay on redirecting the funds. Go figure.

i do not think that she is cute or spunky anymore either.

[DMcD]

I see nothing more in her than an Ann Coulter parrot

[DixieMelody]

At least the nightly newscasts on NBC and CBS called Palin out on the lies tonight and showed McCain repeating the 'sold the plane on E-bay for a profit" lie.

All I can say is "IT'S ABOUT TIME."

Of course ABC/Charles Gibson continue to play handmaiden to the lying duo and promote his upcoming interview with "PAIN."

[rcwblessed]

Her campaign speech was full of lies and exaggerations. The bridge lie seems to be her favorite one. I don't understand how she can tell so many lies and at the same time, call herself a born-again Christian. You can't have it both ways. Doesn't that make her a hypocrite?

Sarah Palin's churches are actively involved in a resurgent movement that was declared heretical by the Assemblies of God in 1949. This is the same 'Spiritual Warfare' movement that was featured in the award winning movie, "Jesus Camp," which showed young children being trained to do battle for the Lord. At least three of four of Palin's churches are involved with major organizations and leaders of this movement, which is referred to as The Third Wave of the Holy Spirit or the New Apostolic Reformation. The movement is training a young "Joel's Army" to take dominion over the United States and the world.

John McCan't/Darth Palin '08: the *true* Bridge to Nowhere

[Not ur average Joe]

I was a little worry when palin step foot into the game last week but by keep watching her I realize she's nothing to worry about. Even these polls are not accurate barack going 2 win in the fall and im convinced. He's ahead in the electoral college votes and thats who wins the election. Also Palin just keep on repeating the same things in all her speeches she's a weak canidate and the public will get tired of her very soon because im already tired. Watch her momentum start going down next week u watch.

pathological mavericky mavericks...we know how to echo Roves lines, and lie without a hint of conscience...lack of conscience is an illness, not a heroic, honorable attribute...
