Palin earmarks between 2000-03 were between 21 and 48 times the size of Senator Obama's requested earmarks between 2005-08 adjusted for population and time in office.
Besides, she's the one who made it a 'big deal'...

haha, thats good, adjusted for population, time in office, square mileage of the land, number of seals that live in the area, number of deer that you see driving down the street in a 1978 vw bug,
You adjust it enough, you get the results you finally want..
Palin's earmarks: Not just for the halibut - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/politico/20080910/pl_politico/13353 - broken link)
Seals, crabs, all kinds of goodies. So much for change.
Not to mention that her small town of Wasilla, population 5,000 recieved 27,000,000 in federal tax payer dollars. 27 million for a city that has less people than the average NYC neighborhood? And that's just the federal dollars...
so much for showing the "big spenders in washington"...

Are you forgetting that Senator McCain said today that she had no earmarks while she was Governor? It doesn't make any difference what Obama had he has not denied having earmarks. Only the McCain camp has.

He's right, governors don't get earmarks. Congressmen are the only ones.
Sounds like she was an effective Governor for her constituents.
The point is that she lied. I know that really doesn't matter to you, just thought I'd throw that out there.
You also never answered my question about which of her positions you support. Again, not that I think it really matters to you.
I think I'm pretty clear on what your support of Palin is *really* about. In any case, let's see how well she does in the debate.
