Obama and Biden Voted for "Bridge to Nowhere"

Now that the Democrats are rabidly attacking Sarah Palin over the Alaskan Ketchikan bridge, claiming she lied about shutting down the project, it might be a good moment to point out that both Barack Obama and Joe Biden voted for the Bridge to Nowhere. Though Gov. Palin originally supported the earmark spending on the Bridge, she eventually killed the project choosing to spend the 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.

Two of the biggest pork and waste spenders ever to hold congressional seats and who never say 'no' to anything that squanders taxpayer money, attack Palin for having the good sense to realize a project is a mistake. We have a saying here in FL that describes the behavior of Obama and Biden for attacking Palin on this issue: "balls bigger than cocoanuts."

Hussein and Biden are together at the wrong end of the Bridge to Nowhere.

This isn’t going to have any traction—who’s going to believe that Obama was actually present to cast a vote in the Senate?

Probably no one would have even brought this up, if it weren’t for PALIN.

I like her.

No surprise here — both of the insufferably arrogant fools have been on the road to nowhere during their entire public life.

Let Obama & Biden keep that Bridge to Nowhere in the forefront. The truth will out - the whole truth - and they will fall in the face of truth.

In the few times Obama did vote, that was one of the things he supported? Great.

If he DID happen to be there, I'll bet he voted "Present".

Good point. Additionally if he was he never would vote for such pork as muslims are opposed to pork.
