Listening to Sarah Palin spin out streams of nonsense to Charlie Gibson, I realized... hey, this bit sounds familiar. It took me a bit to remember, but then I realized- Carlin!
Carlin would go off in his show about "Stuff" verses "Shit".
"Did you ever notice how everyone else's stuff is shit, but your shit is stuff?"
That is the Palin position on earmarks! Her earmarks are for "infrastructure". Oh, what? The rest of the nation wastes it on hookers and blow?! When she gets money in earmarks- it for important stuff. Maryland (or add your state here) just wastes it on shit!
If you want to catch a bit of Carlin. Relevant section at 2:20.
