There are critics of Sarah Palin but in my opinion she is also a very good politician and she also did some good projects in Alaska.

How is Palin talking about stopping funding for Drosophila? The funding went to research for stopping the fruit fly that damages California’s Olives. Not research on autism or even genetics in general. The bottom line is that if our Congress is passing a bill let’s say a Bailout everything in that bill needs to pertain the bailout not funding something outside of the parameters of the bill. Our government spends 16 BILLION DOLLARS a year on earmarks (Barack Obama quoted this number in two debates) that might be a small percentage of our annual budget but when looking to balance the budget this might be a good starting point.
