LOL!  

She fought tooth and nail for the funding.  It was only after it 
became a national issue and the Poster Child of Gvt Waste that 
she opposed it.  Her public statements make it look like she 
was against the pork from the beginning.  IOW, she lies every time 
she makes that speech.  

Further, she accepted the money and never returned it.  A good 
portion of it was spent on a road the runs to the spot where 
the Bridge to Nowhere was to be built. 

She has also sent lobbyists to Washington to get her hands on 
more congressional pork.  

Your Fiscal Reformer has dirty hand from reaching into the pie 
for a bigger share.  In fact, Alaska's pork/capita is the 
highest in the nation.
