I am going on record that I am ASKING for $25 K to re-do my back porch - if the Senators vote me the $$$ - I'll take it and run...

Geeker-

Obama and Biden arent campaigning as "the maverick" or the "government reformer" that is going to rid our country of earmarks. Palin/Mccain are.

McCain went on national TV and LIED about Palin not requesting earmarks.

If she is so AGAINST earmarks, why ask for nearly a half a billion dollars in less than 2 years?
