Thanks, SB.......I figured as much. But when I heard it was on Glenn Beck’s show I admit it made me nervous.
No problem, everyone I know already emailed Glenn to tell him to retract the story. Also, if you go on Michelle Malkin’s web site you will see as of Jan 13th Perry, Palin, and Sanford were all on the same page in regards to the stimulus package, all three are against it
Also, why am I reading such hate on Perry, from what I have seen of him, he seems like a good guy, and Kay Bailey treated Sarah like crap when she was introduced as McCain’s running mate, what goes around comes around Kay Bailey
This is what Michelle Malkin wrote on January 13th, this could be a reason why she supports Rick Perry
“Sarah Palin- Governor of Alaska- Governor Palin is getting her head ripped off by the new US state senator Mark Begich because she is not asking for anything more than the typical road projects already supported by the federal government. These are projects already requested and approved by the federal government.
Palin says requesting what she calls non-formula projects, like those Begich suggests, could lead to, “....unhealthy practices and results that often occur in the Congressional earmarking process.”
It is a statement that some say sounds similar to those Palin used on the Vice-Presidential campaign trail.
The letter ends with Palin telling the congressional delegation, “...beyond my purview as Governor, I also urge you to consider how the economic stimulus package will affect the national debt and the future economic health of the country.”
Palin is standing her ground and not requesting anything more than she would any other year. There will be several city mayors and such that will work around her and try to get more money.
Mark Sanford- Governor of South Carolina- just like Governor Palin, Governor Sanford is not asking for anything additional. Just the typical projects that are already funded by the federal government for project already approved. Of course, the mayors in his state are already trying to work around there governor just like they are in Alaska by making their own requests.
Gov. Mark Sanford blasted such plans as wasteful and told CNN anchor Wolf
Blitzer on Sunday that President-elect Barack Obama’s proposed stimulus package
is “a horrible mistake” with “dire consequences for the next generation.”
Palin and Sanford are on the same page and both are warning of the future consequences of doing this.
Turns out, three governors were leading the charge against the state bailout.
Guess which three governors?
You got it. Governor Sarah Palin, Governor Mark Sanford and Governor Rick Perry.
Republican Govs. Rick Perry of Texas, Mark Sanford of South Carolina and Sarah Palin of Alaska, led a spirited debate about the pitfalls of adding to the $10.7-trillion federal debt. They warned that the U.S. economy could collapse.”
