...."And BTW, are we now referring to candidates by their middle names. If so, can you give me Palin's and McCain's middle names. TIA.".... I posted both his middle name and his last name. And what do you mean "WE" I post his middle name..I have not seen you do this. Have you? And just why is it the none of the main stream media use his middle name?? why don't you use it. Is there a problem in your mind with his middle name? ...."Millions have been spent on both campaigns for typical compaign expenses. I am not loving it but when did a $150k budget for clothes become a campaign expense. The Obamas and the Bidens buy their own clothes. What's so special about Palin?".... You got proof that hussein obama and biden and their wives buy their own cloths? ...."What's so special about Palin?".... She is a decent human being unlike the people that hussein obama associates with...and unlike a good deal of democrat party members as I am learning from these threads and elsewhere... how about barney franks for corruption/

....."....."I am not worried about Palin's clothes. I just think its fairly shallow and the money could be spent on better things"... You mean like share the wealth?? what hussein obama wants to do in America? Maybe the money spent here could have been shared with someone less fortunate than the obamas. Do a check on charity by Cindy McCain. She's No Palin: Michelle Obama Now Lying About Gazillion Dollar Custom-Made Designer Wardrobe; Claims She Shops @ J. Crew, Online October 27, 2008 By Debbie Schlussel debbieschlussel.com Since Michelle Hussein Obama is now lying about her gazillion-dollar, custom-made designer wardrobe in order to play class warfare against Sarah Palin, she needs to be called to the mat. For the last six months or so, we've been treated to stories and pictures of Michelle Obama's designer wardrobe and details of how much of her stunning wardrobe is custom-made by an expensive Chicag-based designer. Then, we were treated to spreads of Michelle Hussein Obama's exorbitant designer label wardrobe, bearing names you only see on celebrities and wives of millionaires. There's a reason that Michelle Obama made People's Best Dressed List, and Vanity Fair's. But, now, with the flap over the $150,000 the RNC spent on a wardrobe for Sarah Palin, Michelle Obama is lying and pretending she buys her clothes online and from J. Crew. US Magazine Spread: Michelle Obama's Expensive Designer Duds Couldn't be farther from the truth. Here's what she's now telling Jay Leno: No $150,000 wardrobe malfunctions for Michelle Obama. "Actually, this is a J. Crew ensemble," the wife of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama told Jay Leno in an appearance on his show Monday. "You can get some good stuff online," she added. That's a lie. Obama's wardrobe--which probably exceeds $150,000--is well known to be that of high-priced, exclusive designers. Endless profiles have been written about her custom-made tailored frocks from personal designer Maria Pinto. And then there are her gazillion-dollar outfits from Moschino, Narciso Rodriguez, and Azzedine Alaia. The Wall Street Journal did a huge profile of Pinto and her personalized pieces for Mrs. Obama, to the tune of thousands of dollars. The New York Times wrote about the Pinto-Obama style relationship, too. In September, US Magazine did a two-page spread of Mrs. Obama's fancy designer duds. The ugly brooch she wore on her teal dress at the Democratic National Convention cost well over $200 alone. Mrs. Hussein Obama also told Jay Leno that, while she won't criticize Sarah Palin for the expensive clothes (which she didn't mention was the McCain campaign's decision, not Palin's), she said, "When we buy clothes, we buy it ourselves." Well, sure, that's because, while the Palin's had to pay for their own home, the Obama's had their $1.6 million-plus home purchased for them in a sleazy land deal by Tony Rezko, who enabled them to buy only the home at a well-below list price. So, they have a lot of extra cash on hand for designer duds. And the Obamas are rich, unlike the Palins. Obama's books sold many copies and Mrs. Obama was making well over $300,000 annually as a crush-the-poor-on-healthcare hospital exec. It's not like the Palins can afford Mrs. Hussein Obama's wardrobe. Obama, himself, shops at exclusive Dubai-owned Barney's, where men's suits are several thousand dollars apiece. The Palins are relatively modest people. I really wish the McCain campaign and RNC hadn't done the whole clothing deal. It really took away a real chance at contrasting these two families and how they live their lives. And it is turning into a never-ending story right before the election. Either way, Michelle Obama--especially on the issue of expensive clothes--is a phony. She's no average Josephine who shops at J. Crew. She's a rich elitist with high-priced personal couturiers that would make Sarah Palin--and most Americans--blush. But for the next week, she's suddenly one of "the little people."

Governor Sarah Heath Palin of Alaska----- Heath is a very old American name-------in Va. we have a section of land that was owned by a family by the name of Heath------------farmers, tillers of the soil, keepers of animals, builders. Sarah Heath Palin's first name, Sarah, is absolutely beautiful. Her parents chose her name well. What's your problem with using Barrack Hussein Obama, the full name. It must bother you for some reason. Please explain.
