I think you are confused.

People who don't like Palin don't like her because she abuses her power first hand. She can't answer questions about current issues. So they are hating because she is dumb. Which is understandable.

Obama on the other hand has more haters due to race than policy.

There is a huge difference between those 2 type of hatred.
Soooo ... Is it safe to assume then, that you really, really, really, hate "jobs is a three-letter word," Joe Biden?

Has Barak Hussein Obama visited all 57 states yet? :lol:

So it seems that barbie spent $150.000 on cloths and $4,000 on her HAIR, as just stated on CNN.. plus she tried to falsify her expense report so as not to show that the US tax payers were being charged for transportation of her children..even when they didn't even go to the functions......polls showing that support for her is dropping by the day, and she's pulling McCain down.. Great..... Good job Barbie..................

Hey Twisty... how ya doing :)

I noticed no one is asking about how much Obama, Biden or McCain have spent on nice new designer suits to wear while campaigning. I wonder why that is?

About her family travels.... I have no idea if us taxpayers footed the bill or not.... but we are footing the bill for secret service protection for Obama and his family so what's the diff?

Quite frankly I'd rather us taxpayers didn't contribute one cent to any of these four scoundrels in their bid for the White House. ;

Yes, the taxpayers pay for Palin's business travel, including paying for her family to travel with her. There isn't a governor in any of the states that pay for their own business travel, including taking their spouses and children. Its one of the perks of the job.

Remember, one of the first things Palin did as governor, was to sell the previous governor's private jet. She's been flying commercial ever sense. With the sale of the jet, and flying commercial, to date, Palin says she's saved the Alaskan taxpayer over $400,000 in travel expenses.

By the way, the sale of that jet is indicative of what Sarah Palin will do, along with John McCain, to clean up the mess in Washington.

Shouldn't her kids be in school? What does she do as governer that her kids need to be included in? Didn't she know when she ran for governer that she would have to be away from home sometimes?

Who among you travels for your job? How many of you who do take your whole family along at your employers expense?

Brought up maybe.... but certainly not blown up to the proportion of Palin's wardrobe. Look, I don't support McCain/Palin or Obama/Biden.... but surely there are enough other things to work oneself into tizzy over Palin then her wardrobe. Know what I mean?

As to secret service.... Obama was placed under SS protection back in May.... earlier then any other Presidential candidate not already part of an administration.

Again.... my only point is that we taxpayers foot many of the bills for all of these fools in their quest for the Oval office...... and I wish we didn't.

I'd say she's closer to being an "every day soccer mom" then say Hillary Clinton (when she was running). I'd also say her family life is (or was) probably closer to the average American family then either McCain or Obama.

Look.... if her political team thought she needed a new wardrobe then SO THE FUCK WHAT???? What on earth does that have to do with the price of tea in China.... or anything that's relevant to the election? I'd say not a damn thing. I seem to remember Hillary getting a bunch of attention over her 'pant suits'. Why do the women seem to take such a beating in the media over wardrobe? It seems so irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.

It's not the wardrobe or its cost, it's the fact that she used campaign contributions to procure them. That meager $20 bucks my grandmother sent the McCain campaign wasn't intended to provide Palin with a designer label dress. The fact that McCain was a main sponsor of a law that forbid those exact actions.. is just an embarrassing candy topping to the shit sundae the GOP has served us.

And if she didn't have a nice wardrobe, John Stewart would say that she looks like a hick.

She's only a "laughing stock" in the minds of those who allow themselves to be taken in by the media who are in the tank for Barrack Hussein Obama. Ask yourself why there is such animosity toward this woman. The Progressives and their supporters in the Pravda media are scared shitless of this woman. Not that she may win the vice presidency, but that she is a CONSERVATIVE woman who will, even if she loses, become a part of the new conservative movement that will arise after this election. Remember, Obama may win ... but there is another election in two years. The Congress and the Senate have a much lower approval rating that even GW. If Obama is elected, there will be no checks and balances on congress. Two years of Marxist programs being foisted upon an American electorate will be enough to turn the House and Senate back over to conservatives. Not Republicans, mind you ... CONSERVATIVES. And Palin will be right there with them ... and the Executive in 2012.

That's why Palin strikes fear into the hearts of liberals ... and that's why they are so bent on destroying her.

Did you see whose the highest paid member of the McCain campaign team during the first half of this month?
Not Randy Scheunemann, Mr. McCain’s chief foreign policy adviser; not Nicolle Wallace, his senior communications staff member. It was Amy Strozzi, who was identified by the Washington Post this week as Gov. Sarah Palin’s traveling makeup artist, according to a new filing with the Federal Election Commission on Thursday night.

Ms. Strozzi, who was nominated for an Emmy award for her makeup work on the television show “So You Think You Can Dance?”, was paid $22,800 for the first two weeks of October alone, according to the records.

Just regular Joe Six-Pack hockey mom, right?

Sadly enough, it doesn't seem to be working...
The percentage of white women viewing her favorably dropped 21 points since early September, among independent women it fell 24 points. More broadly, the intensity of negative feelings about Palin are also notable: 40 percent of voters have "strongly unfavorable" views, more than double the post-convention number. Nearly half of independent women now see her in a very negative light, a nearly three-fold increase.

Wouldn't be enough for me... her voice cuts through me like a knife...makes the hairs on my bag stand up.. :shock: Plus it takes a lot of work to spackle lipstick on that pig....:bigjoint:

I see your point.... however, those that give money to campaigns do so freely and the morons that run the campaigns decide where to spend the money; I guess they thought Sarah needed some new clothes. Quite frankly I doubt it was Sarah who said "hey give me some money for some new clothes"..... nope... I believe it was the campaign party who made that decision to piss your grandma's money away on clothes for Palin.

I don't know why anyone would give one nickel to either of the big 2 parties as clearly they have enough money to keep us inundated in commercials, phone calls and junk mail pushing their candidate. The big 2 political machine would do just fine without individual citizen contributions so tell grandma to put away her checkbook next time.

LOL.... well clearly Palin is a DOLT, I mean she didn't even know what the Bush Doctrine was.... DOH! I think that's more worthy of criticism then the clothes thing.

Personally I don't think any of the 4 are fit to lead our Country.... I'm VERY disappointed that, with 300+ million people in this Country, these are the best choices the big 2 could come up with.

My vote will not be cast for either McCain or Obama. I think they are both HORRIBLE choices and I think no matter which one wins.... the American people will lose.

Isn't part of Palin's platform that she cuts wasteful spending? That kind of dough for clothes is pretty damn wasteful in my book.
Palin's entire "platform" is that she looks kind of hot. She has no relevant experience, she is intellectually incurious, a religious nut, arrogant enough to believe the law does not apply to her. Basically she's Bush in lipstick.

Palin was the WRONG choice for running mate... plain and simple. I think the campaign rolled the dice that they would pick up more votes from women by having her on the ticket. Too bad they were too stupid to realize they were NEVER going to get the votes of disappointed Hillary supporters with a candidate who is not pro-choice.
