Last night, NPR ran a report that leaves no doubt that Gov. Sarah Palin's claim that she told Congress "no thanks" on the Bridge to Nowhere, is, shall we say, not at all true.
The bottom line - while she did not get her bridge (which she supported) - she did get the over $200 million proposed for the bridge, and was able to use it for other state projects. So her claim that she said "no thanks" to Congress is not anywhere even close to the truth.
It is a must-listen for anyone wanting to learn more about this story and the good Governor from Alaska.
