Comments on: Palin on earmarks: ‘We did well!!!’ http://coloradoindependent.com/6940/palin-on-earmarks-we-did-well News you can't get anywhere else Sun, 27 May 2012 17:17:06 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Kwaayesnama http://coloradoindependent.com/6940/palin-on-earmarks-we-did-well/comment-page-1#comment-35892 Kwaayesnama Thu, 04 Sep 2008 08:58:22 +0000 http://www.coloradoindependent.com/?p=6940#comment-35892 As an Arizona Republican I received a fundraising letter from the McCain campaign Friday. I sent it back with a note that says I will donate exactly the same amount that John McCain has requested in earmarks for our state. McCain’s call to fame is that he is the only representative in Washington never to request any earmarks for his home state. What does that prove? To me it shows that in McCain’s mind Arizona is so wealthy that we do not need any assistance from Washington. It seems he is happy to see all the tax dollars that we send to DC go to other states. Arizona has Indian Reservations with unemployment over 60%. We have beautiful rural areas that would greatly benefit from an increase in tourism. McCain’s lack of concern for Arizona shows that when John and Cindy fly over our state in their private plane that they do not pay attention to the people that live outside of Scottsdale. Lets see if in November the citizens of Arizona will send him a message and not vote for him. Would someone please wake up John McCain!

Was she talking about the John McCain that in 26 years never voted for raising the minimum wage?

Eighteen times John McCain voted NO to raise the living standards of the neediest Americans.
