The problem with this article lies in the last paragraph. According to the associated press. Well where did they get their information. Everyone in America knows that the AP is a staunch left wing media outlet. And lets also remember that the earmarks that B.H. Obama requested were mainly directed towards the hospital that Michelle Obama worked for. Seems a little fishy to me. The thing that is great about this though, is that Obama is so busy attacking Palin, that he is not focusing on McCain. Remember, Its not Obama vs. Palin Its Obama vs. McCain. This article suprised me at first, but then I remembered that the WSJ was bought out last year by a left-wing media outlet. Further, I would welcome a candidate in the white house who knows a thing or two about handling infrastructure appropriations. Here is an article for you to read.
I think the content of the article speaks for itself, is well-researched, and is well within the bounds of other journalism that has been produced on this subject. Instead, I'd like to address a few misconceptions of yours.
1. The WSJ is a right-leaning news source. You noted that it was bought by a left-wing outlet; that's not true. The WSJ was recently purchased by News Corp, owned by Rupert Murdoch. News Corp owns Fox News and several other conservative news organizations. It seems to me, therefore, that since you appear to be a conservative, you should pay extra attention when the WSJ is criticizing conservatives.
2. The AP is a massive news organization that has lots of reporters from across the political spectrum. But you should know that the AP's Washington bureau chief is a guy named Ron Fournier. Liberals hate this guy because he tends to editorialize to the right. If you don't believe me, read this: http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Ron_Fournier But you should keep in mind that with a conservative Washington bureau chief, that sometimes results in conservative slant on political news.
3. If you pay attention to the WSJ article (and lots of others), I think you'll find that Gov. Palin knows a great deal about securing appropriations. But that's not in line with conservative ideology, and that's not change we can believe in.
