Finally someone nailed the Obama camp.  For so long they have been making fun of Sarah Palin’s “Bridge To Nowhere” and now Fox News comes out with new information about how Barack Obama and Joe Biden both failed to strike this amendment down:

Although Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden routinely mocks his Republican counterpart, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, for her onetime support of the infamous “Bridge to Nowhere,” Biden and his running mate voted to keep the project alive twice.

Both Biden and Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama voted to kill a Senate amendment that would have diverted federal funding for the bridge to repair a Louisiana span badly damaged by Hurricane Katrina, Senate records show.

And both voted for the final transportation bill that included the $223 million earmark for the Alaska project.

An amendment offered by Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Oklahoma, would have stripped the money appropriated to connect the Alaskan coastal city of Ketchikan to its airport on sparsely populated Gravina Island and diverted the money to Louisiana.

But Biden andObama and 80 of their colleagues rejected the measure, an amendment to a massive 2005 transportation bill that funded thousands of projects across the country.

Suck on that Liberal Media.   Fox News proves once again that they are….what’s that? This article was published on CNN’s website?  What did Fox have on its site during the same time period? Really?

Goddamnit it Fox…..
