And it turns out that the facts show that in a numberr of meetings in 2006-2007 Palin is heard thanking different State and Federal legislators for getting different ear-marks for Alaska AND the facts are that the "bridge to nowhere" funds were NOT returned to Washington but spent on other projects in Alaska.

Too bad that as it turns out she's just another typical pol!! Shame!!

Donating is just part of the equation. I've never seen people paying so much attention - organizing, debating, sharing, canvasing, registering. The repubs had a chance this week to explain their vision for the nation we share. Their answer so far is motivating all right. We now have a new angry, mediocre, dismissive, insulting face plugged into the Rove machine. Sad thing is, I don't see the same thing when I see Jindal and Pawlenty speaking. Perhaps it will be left to them to reinvent the republican brand - but this country really needs to send a message to this current group of hate-mongers.
