>> Palin Per Diem, Travel Expenses Scrutinized

Liberal media made up shit.

When your principal place of business is 600 miles away and you choose instead to commute to a nearer office, you are entitled to a per diem allowance. This is the way the federal government does it, and it is the way most states I've dealt with do it.

Nothing new there. If she were commuting the 600 miles, she would not be allowed the per diem as it is a statutory "commute".

Besides, by doing this, she saved AK about 75% of those same expenditures from the previous governor. Alaskans are ELATED.

The liberal media is just going to have to keep digging I guess.
