Subject: The Palin Pipeline - $500 million for a non-existant pipeline

Not only has the pipeline not been built, but as Palin’s signifying “accomplishment” during her brief time as Governor was written — the bill Palin championed to such an extent it was often referred to as the Palin Pipeline — left the state vulnerable to losing over 500 million dollars. Or should I say, it left us vulnerable to paying over 500 million dollars because Palin thought that the US Federal Government should shoulder all the financial risks of AGIA while writing a contract that guarantees profit for the private corporation (or Alaska will pay damages). Sort of like those bail outs Palin’s followers so object to, wherein we taxpayers subsidize the risk and the private company gets to take the profit.
and she thinks Obama has expensive policies.

Par for the course. Socialize the cost, privatize the profits.

...and yet the Tea Partiers still love her. They don't stand for small government anymore than the big two parties.

I prefer them to call them the Tea Party Followers. Accent on Followers. If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything. Those jackweeds prove it's true.
If you want big business and big military, then you have to have big government. If you have big business and big military with small government, then big business will run the country with the U.S. military as their schoolyard body guards! It's that simple. It's even more simpler than the Laffer Curve!
