SARAH PALIN did support the Bridge to Nowhere

And she has the t-shirt to prove it! Some lively commenting about the issue can be found at Ben Smith’s Blog via Politico.com, and to learn more about Palin’s flip-flopping of the Bridge to Nowhere earmark go to AndrewHalcro.com:

According to the Associated Press, when she was running for governor in 2006, Palin said she was insulted by the term “bridge to nowhere,” according to Ketchikan Mayor Bob Weinstein, a Democrat, and Mike Elerding, a Republican who was Palin’s campaign coordinator in the southeast Alaska city.

“People are learning that she pandered to us by saying, I’m for this’ … and then when she found it was politically advantageous for her nationally, abruptly she starts using the very term that she said was insulting,” Weinstein said.
