Here's another lesson in Family Values from Sarah Palin, McCain's pick for VP. As governor of Alaska, Palin line item vetoed funds for a program to help unwed teenage mothers during their first 18 months while they learn the basic skills needed to be a good parent. She cut funding from $5 million to $3.9 million with a stroke of a pen. She also cut the budget for the Fairbanks Community Food Bank in half, those funds would have bought upgrades to refrigeration equipment and computers for the social service organization.
Funny, those were not the kind of values my family raised me with.
ThinkProgress has more.
