Bridge to Nowhere Story Going Nowhere

This is getting to be 'old hat', but it is an important story in that it quite elegantly sums up Palin's tendency to lie about things that are easily fact-checked. Andrew Sullivan has been keeping a log of all of the lies she has told so far, and they are starting to add up. It's no wonder her favorability rating has plummeted over the past week.
Quote:

Some residents of Ketchikan -- a city of 8,000 on a neighboring island where the bridge was to end -- see the road as a symbol of wasteful spending that Palin could have curtailed. Some of them even accuse her of deception.

"Surely we won't have to commute on the highway if there won't be a bridge," said Jill Jacob, who has been writing and calling the governor's office for the last two years to protest the road. "It's a dead-end highway, a dead-end road."
