Reply #8: This is not about being illegal or not. [View All]

She is running on a ticket that wants to cut government waste. Remember, earmarks are not illegal either. Yet, her and the old man are describing earmarks as the devil's invention.

What this show, is that she is in government for herself. She is just another pig at the trough. (With lipstick).

So, it might not be illegal, just like it was not illegal for AIG to spend $400.000 on a retreat after the bailout. But it is highly immoral considering the economic times. Especially in a state like Alaska, where there still are communities without running water, medical services etc. (Like the island from which you can actually see Russia).
