will checkout his history? McCain is on the record stating, " I have never asked for nor received a single earmark or pork barrel project for my state and I guarantee you I’ll veto those bills. I’ll ask for the line item veto and I’ll veto them and I’ll make the authors of them famous."
In 2000 he request and got a $56 million authorization for an environmental and habitat restoration project along the Salt River, $4.2 million to create a national mediation center in Tucson, and $3 million for the Turquoise Trail, a joint effort of the Navajo and Hopi tribes.
In 2006, the senator teamed up with fellow Arizona senator Jon Kyl (R) to funnel $10 million toward the University of Arizona for an academic center named after the late Supreme Court Justice William Rehnquist.
Is he just forgetting what he has done, or thinks he can get away with lying?
