McCain Called Palin-Supported Earmarks "Objectionable"

avatar

After calling Gov. Palin out for pumping up her "conservative credentials" with a whole lotta hot air, ABC's John Tapper points out that in 2001 and 2002, John McCain himself called three of the earmarks that Palin supported as Mayor, "objectionable." 

Why can't the MSM put that up as a headline, instead of copying and pasting the McCain-Palin campaign's continual abuses of the truth?

To extend the MSM some credit, if she were allowed to speak with them, they might actually ask her for some clarification.  Maybe this is why Palin is in hiding.
