Ted, > As I said to CJ and Z, I think spending $150k on clothes is a huge amount of money for two months.......and unnecessary. I believe how people spend their money provides us an insight on how they will spend other people's money. Sure, but I didn't see the NYTimes make a big deal over Al Gore's mansion or John Edwards' $400 haircut. The wardrobe budget for Sarah Palin does seem way too high, though. I figure $20K ought to have been enough for an "extreme makeover." Tenchusatsu

Nope. As I said to CJ and Z, I think spending $150k on clothes is a huge amount of money for two months.......and unnecessary. I believe how people spend their money provides us an insight on how they will spend other people's money. But we already know how Palin will spend taxpayers' money -- because she has a track record in AK. We also know how Obomber will spend our money, as he has ordered earmarks of a million dollars for every day he has been in the Senate. Who is more fiscally responsible? There isn't any contest. Palin saved money in AK at every turn. Obomber has blown money when he has had the chance. It is important, also, to remember that Palin was not spending tax dollars, but was spending money handed to her by a private enterprise for that designated purpose. In fact, we don't even know that SHE spent it -- we don't know WHO spent it. This is a bullshit argument. The only kind you know how to make.
