		<description>Nothern Westchester is among those who thinks that if one does enough twisting, they can become Chubby Checker.

Chubby had the hits. Northern Westchester has the misses.</description>

		<description>Palin campaigned on a &quot;bridge&quot; not the massive boodogle
bridge that the congress appropriated..that she was against
as a waste of money..so she in fact stopped the bridge to
no where...the fact that other monies went to alaska
for other reasons is not a rebuttal of her stopping
a waste of taxpayers dollars from happening...and as
for the real issue..the candidate for President is John McCain..HE TOOK ZERO DOLLARS FOR HIMSELF AND ARIZONA
and he will stop the practice entirely when he is president
And he will be President..you can take that to the bank</description>

		<description>How many earmarks were received by Wasila, Alaska and the State of Alaska under Palin&#039;s leadership? Then take those figures and compare it to population of the state of Alaska and the State of Illinois. 

This is the biggest smokescreen I have ever seen in American politics. The single greatest earmark debacle in American history was a bridge to no where, that Palin campaigned on. And in the end, when it didn&#039;t happen, she still kept the money for the state. She also hired the king of Pork&#039;s former staffer (Ted Stevens) as a lobbying to bring home the bacon. 

The hypocrisy is unreal.</description>

		<description>Now, this is more fair and balanced.  Someone will analyze this, for sure. Now we also need Biden&#039;s earmarks.</description>
