I don't care one bit about Sarah Palin's $150,000 wardrobe
It's GOP money, not taxpayer money. If they want to spend their money on clothes, and not campaign ads or consultants, then that's no skin off my back.

Though the more people that come out to say they don't care about it--all the while repeating the accusations--then that is good for us too.

1. I could care less either
Seems like some have "Palin obsession syndrome" where they have to post every FUCKING WORD that that fucking idiot moron says. Makes me fucking sick :puke:

2. What was their budget for purple band aids last election?
They are nothing more than hypocrites pulling stunts on the rubes that vote for them. While I agree with you that I don't care what they spend on Make-Believe Barbie VP, it is nice to rub their lying faces in their own mess from time to time.

4. I think it says a lot about her character.
Take what you can, when you can and fuck everyone else. It's all about small town values.

5. I think we should let the GOP hammer away at the character stuff
and be frowned upon for running an ugly campaign

I'm perfectly happy having Obama/Biden talking about the economy, taxes, healthcare, and foreign polciy.

11. I don't think Obama should use it in his campaign. He has real issues
to talk about. Still, dining at the public trough is such a republican thing to do. She took 150,000 to campaign. What would she take if she was the VP? She could've used that money to buy Joe the Plumber his business, but she put on lipstick instead.

6. I Agree, BUT
It is fairly telling that the GOP still cares more about image than substance.

7. When they play the Elitist Card as well as the Real America Card...
...then this revelation should come as just more hypocrisy on their part.

I could care less too, except that they stepped in it by yapping about how they stand for "Joe The Plumber" and other nonsensical ploys.

9. I do. I love it. What a fucking waste of money, for the party that claims to be fiscally
conservative. And how very, very elitist. And how very shallow.

12. Hell, even I'd have been his running mate if they'd offered me $150,000 in clothes.

13. The point is, when you spend that kind of money on clothes and makeup -
you lose your claim to moral high ground when accusing others of elitism and irresponsible spending.
