Alaska Democrats pull web page crediting Palin for killing Bridge to Nowhere
What a surprise. You can’t have the Democrats praising Palin when Obama supporters are trying to discredit her with distortions of the real story.
A copy of Democrat support for Palin can be found here.

This article from SFGate during the conflict of the earmarks for the bridge brings to light who was earmarking for the bridge.

Some quotes in case you don’t read it.

The money -- championed by Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, the powerful head of the Senate Appropriations Committee -- was earmarked to help construct a bridge between Ketchikan and Gravina Island in the Alaskan Inland Passage in the southeastern corner of the state. A ferry boat now provides transportation between the two points.
Budget hawks in Washington and some Alaska residents said other projects around the nation were more deserving. Critics suggested using the dollars to help rebuild the hurricane-ravaged Gulf Coast.
Stevens had argued that the bridges were needed to spur economic development on Gravina Island and in Knik. The proposed Gravina Island bridge is not a "bridge to nowhere," Stevens said Wednesday; "it's the bridge to the future."
When Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., tried unsuccessfully last month to cut funding for the two bridges, an angry Stevens declared that he would resign his Senate seat if the bridge funding was dropped.

(bold mine referring to Obama and Biden voting for the bridge to nowhere, but voting against helping Katrina damaged bridges).

It was Stevens who got the money and the funds could still have been spent on the bridge so Palin’s ‘Thanks but no thanks’ is not a lie. She could have used the money for the bridge but Alaska would have to come up with the balance to fully fund the project.

Under a compromise transportation spending bill, Alaska would still get the federal dollars -- but the money would not be specifically designated for the two bridges. As a result, Alaskan lawmakers and other officials would decide where to spend the money -- and they could opt to fund other transportation projects.

The more I look into this the more you find out how Obama is on the wrong side of the bridge.
