    Yes she kept the $400,000,000.00 dollars, 400 million and then lied about supporting it. All the candidates supported it initially she is just the only one lying about it.

    yep she should have built the bridge then atleast the 25 million we paid for the road would have a purpose

    The road goes to a ferry, so you can get to the island. But you don't really care about this. You get your kicks attacking Palin.

    No, she didn't. Her predecessor signed the contract for that before she took office.

    The road was leading to the bridge. Now it is leading to the new ferry system they are using for transportation to and from the airport.

    At least she didn't run a money laundering scam to buy the lot next to her house.

    First of all, the bridge DOES go somewhere....to an island that has people living on it. Currently, they use a ferry to cross over. When the weather is bad, they can't get off the island (that burst appendix or baby or burn victim will have to wait on the weather, thank you). When the ferry lands on the mainland, they need a road to drive on. I believe Alaska has only about 20% of it's roads paved, the lowest percentage in the nation. Should they not enjoy paved roads like everyone else?

    So, calling it a "Bridge to Nowhere" or a "Road to Nowhere" is a fallacy.

    And you do know that BOTH Obama and Biden voted to fund it, yes?

    Yes. That's exactly what she did.

    I think she did. Here's a CNN video that kind of explains the whole thing including Obama/Biden's part: http://www.mofopolitics.com/2008/09/23/video-biden-obama-voted-for-bridge-to-nowhere-against-katrina-reconstruction/
