Why don't they start with telling the truth of the bridge to nowhere?McCain has lost any integrity he had and has become George Bush. He has selected an all female panel to further perpetuate the "Obama is sexist" smear. This is really a transparent sham and should be insulting to women everywhere.

I'm glad you posted that link. It shows truth stretching by both parties. There's a thread here on CD how Palin cut spending for special needs children in Alaska by 62 percent. I was really concerned. But then I see it on the link you posted that shows that is absolutely not the truth, and in fact she boosted spending.
