RNC spends 150ks on dresses, make-up for Sarah Palin & family

Re: RNC spends 150ks on dresses, make-up for Sarah Palin & family

What cracked me up yesterday was when Palin herself talked about this "controversy". Her defence: "these are not my clothes" - so apparently don't blame it on me.

Oh really??

Yes, clearly these are not YOUR clothes, Ms Palin, these are paid for by Republican donors and Republican National Committee, but as luck would have it, only YOU are wearing them. So they are kinda your clothes (while they are still not), and sorry to burst your indignant bubble, but you have to own up to the responsibility of spending $150k of your party's money on these. After you are done, these will ostensibly be donated to charity. Worthy as it may sound, please take a better defence on this issue.

And who the heck spends $150k in six weeks on clothes. I wouldn't even know how one can do that. Ms Palin, you are some serious competition for Hollywood divas, I'd assume, with the difference, of course, that they spend their own money.

Having said that, I still believe there are better and more important things to discuss and disagree in this election. This is more of an interesting distraction, and something Democrats will gleefully exploit for all its worth.
