So that’s why she’s skulking around New York all the time even though the doesn’t have the chance of an iceberg in hell of winning there. She’s shopping! We can only hopes she shops till she drops.

“Fashioin”?

As in “Heroin”

This post/photo is NOT going to sit well with the rightwing blogs…..

But at least her 3x average American family annual budget wardrobe expense sheet wasn’t funded by GEORGE SOROS!! MICHEAL MOORE IS FAT! USA USA USA! OBAMA’S A TERRORIST! HOMO MARRIAGE HOMO MARRIAGE HOMO MARRIAGE!!!!!!!!

Not that it bothers me personally, but there does appear to be a exposed nipple on blackie there. For what that’s worth.

It would be embarrassing to come out of the bathroom with a hemline on your upper lip.

OT-

“But it’s also a fact that a spokesperson from Hamas Al Qaeda said that they approve of Obama’s McCain’s candidacy. I think that’s of interest to the American people.”

Ladies, just vote GOP and you, too, will receive a $150,000 clothing allowance!

This post/photo is NOT going to sit well with the rightwing blogs…..

You mean the jerkoffs who sneered about “Breck Girl” Edwards and his expensive haircuts might get their hackles up? Heaven forfend!

And do keep in mind that since McCain is taking campaign financing, that means $75,000 of that is taxpayer money.

It takes a lot of money to look like an aging pole dancer.

Oh, and now the line is that they were always going to donate those clothes to charity after the campaign. Right. I see Nieman Marcus in the bin at Goodwill every day.

No, most likely that means they’ll “auction” it off on eBay so Rich Lowry can have himself the ultimate smashrag, and give the money to some wingnut welfare right-to-life-until-you’re-actually-born “charity.”

Be careful! Don’t you know that Bill Kristol, just today, reffered to Palin as a “Wal-mart Mom”? Right in the NYTs! Today!

Now in fairness, half of that was maternity outfits for Bristol….

Oh, and now the line is that they were always going to donate those clothes to charity after the campaign. Right. I see Nieman Marcus in the bin at Goodwill every day.

I do, but then, I’m not a REAL American and I live in NYC.

The wing-nuts are already ranting that there are no expenses listed for Obama’s and Michele’s clothes! What are they hiding?

Vice President Palin looked stunning in her Ivory Dior Belted virgin wool Jacket with Matching Pencil Skirt as she Presided over the Senates debate on Aerial Hunting. Her choice of white baby seal Brian Atwood boots accenting her no-nonsnse Polar Bear Fur accented Dolce & Gabbana distressed tote subtly underscored the need for urgent action. The scent of Arctic Tundra and fresh crude by Lancome wafted over the Senators leaving them awestruck and drawing them to her side, she toyed with her John Hardy Silver and Diamond cuff sporting the wolf fang motiff knowing her grace and style had won another round.

I’m looking forward to 4 years of that, man.

Is that a little nipple action I see on the not-Sarah?

Here I thought I’d been prayed out of my sexual orientation issues, but it seems I’m still a lesbian trapped in a man’s body.

Michele’s out fit when she appeared on the View? Cost $148.
About what my wife might spend on a fancy dress, (if I forced her to, as she will not spend money on herself, BTAS)

Why, it smacks of that “respectable Republican cloth coat” of Mrs. Nixon’s.

I can’t wait to hear that line used against Palin.

She’s doing her part to stimulate the economy. You betcha’!

The fact is, liberals are always jealous of those who are better looking, better dressed, more successful, smarter….. let’s see how much traction this has in the Heartland, I think exactly none. It’s the liberals who are eleite and out of touch sipping lattes, not Sarah, who hunts moose.

Now in fairness, half of that was maternity outfits for Bristol

As a matter of fact, yes, the entire family was dressed by the RNC!

I wonder if Levi Johnston got in on the Armani. Or did he get hugged by McCain in his anorak and mukluks?

The Fact is, I’m an eleite in the heartland, currently draped in a maroon Reebok T-shirt accented with BBQ sauce and beer splotches and in a bizarre fashion twist I’ve paired it with of Old Navy twill shorts reminding all those within view that not only do I have a ‘healthy respect’ for Palins beauty but that I’m willing to harness it with a lovely floral scented Lotion infused with Aloe.

How dare you, Clif!!

I’ve heard that snorting rare and expensive undies made of polar bear fur heightens sexual arousal that causes the the user to obsessively hunt for wolves from airplanes. Help stop this abuse of Piper Cubs now. Join your local chapter of Yukon Explorers Stop Winged Exoskeleton Cub Abuse Now (YES WE CAN.) I have either too much time on my hands or not enough.

Gonna donate it all to charity after the party’s over, huh? Who gets the hairstylings and cosmetics?

When the RNC said here’s $150K for some new duds I told them Thanks, but No Thanks… Then I spent it. </Palin>

Just heard on MSNBC that Palin was in drag for the McCain Campaign. Or did I hear that wrong?

When the RNC said here’s $150K for some new duds I told them Thanks, but No Thanks… Then I spent it.

That’s great.

Spending my wife’s entire annual income on clothing for the two of us cannot be considered elitest. My heartland honey and I can barely get by on the half million we bring home, and that lunatic Barack wants to raise my taxes by $7000. How am I supposed to afford another flat screen to put in the guest bedroom with Mr. Obama trying to spread the wealth. Damn socialists, always trying to keep things fair. I’ve had it up to here. It took eight long years to get everything right, so that the middle class and the poor shoulder the tax burden and Warren Buffet lets on to Barack Obama that he pays less in taxes than his secretary. Geez, when will people learn to keep their mouths shut.

It’s the liberals who are eleite and out of touch sipping lattes,

We’re lattes? That makes me feel eleite.

out of touch sipping lattes,

Please bring me more touch-sipping lattes.

I read an obit yesterday for Mr. Blackwell. I can’t help but wonder what he would have to say about Sarah’s duds.

Bad timing methinks.

Mooser,

When Kristol used the phrase Walmart Mom to describe Palin, he meant as an investor. She was a wannabe Saks buyer trapped inside a Walmart lifestyle.

Was the $150,000 a bribe to stay in the campaign with a misogynist? jus’ askin’

Is there such a thing as too much of the wrong type of experience? Because that appears to be the experience that McCain has.

Holy cow, that is nipple action on not-Sarah. I hope she was paid well.

Well, even if that is a Photoshop, it is indicative of Palin’s attitude towards clothing, so it still counts.

Heaven forfend!

Bitter, you know how to Scribe … love that language, you betcha

Shorter Clif:

“Sarah should shop at WalMart like the rest of the uncouth rednecks.”

The fact is, liberals are always jealous of those who are better looking, better dressed, more successful, smarter

Fact is, Sarah Palin is none of those things.

Those $400 haircuts must look like a bargain about now.

Insulted YET, Republicans?

I read an obit yesterday for Mr. Blackwell. I can’t help but wonder what he would have to say about Sarah’s duds.

Bad timing methinks.

Bad timing, or a pre-emptive strike?

“Sarah should shop at WalMart like the rest of the uncouth rednecks.”

Do average, every-day hockey moms and moose killahs general spend 150 grand in less than a month on clothes? Sorta blows holes in the whole “Sarah Palin is so not an elitist, not like them uppity Obamas” meme, don’t it?

“Oh, wow…. I thought I knew about white powder… Hey, do you ever, you know, do it with other chicks?”

Thought just occurred to me: few years back, my cousin sold his less-than-15-year-old three bedroom house and four acres of land for $130 grand. I mean, what the fuck, man?

Joe Max,
I’ve added your insight to a Tumulty thread at Swampland. I too, am shocked that it wasn’t Scherer that prompted me to register a Swampland account. Anyways, the Wurlitzer is putting the “not taxpayer money” spin on this sucker, let’s see if we can get some corrections appended.

Do average, every-day hockey moms and moose killahs general spend 150 grand in less than a month on clothes?

No, they don’t because most average, every-day hockey moms are not governors and Vice-Presidential candidates who have their wardrobe tab picked up by the RNC.
There’s no “scandal” here. I’m sure the DNC does similar things for their candidates.

Of course, if Palin “dressed down” you guys would call her “frumpy”. It’s a no-win situation (as far as your opinions of her) so why not dress to the nines?

Umm, goob –

It ain’t us that decided that this whole election was going to be about “character”. Global financial meltdown? More charges dropped at Gitmo? Skyrocketing deficits? That place in the middle east where things keep blowing up all the time? Okay – sure there are plenty of actual issues to discuss – but the reason they aren’t being discussed is because of McCain.

It’s a no-win situation (as far as your opinions of her) so why not dress to the nines?

Yeah, but for $150 grand? Are you friggin’ serious? And you guys are the ones who’re running on the whole “just a simple hockey mom from Small Town America”, so don’t you feel slightly yanked around by the Powers That Be wasting your party’s money on new shoes and a cute black dress? Or are you saying because Palin’s Up There, she deserves to “dress to the nines” on someone else’s donated dime?

That just fucking blows my mind, and were I a member of the Republican Party and dedicated to the idea that Conservatism was the best thing for all American people, I’d be pissed. ‘Course, those people gave up on McCain-Palin back in September, and it’s only the bootlickers and racists and homophobes and war pigs who’ll defend the Moose Princess’s Constitutional Right To New Duds. I mean, come on. At what point do you say “No more” or is it a case of GOP Uber Alles?

There’s no “scandal” here.
In a way, it’s up to voters to decide whether something is scandalous or not. In another and more important way, something becomes a scandal when journalists tack -gate to the end of a word.

Well, I think we need to take a step back and consider for a moment all the ramifications of this…

Look! A nipple!

Ah, now I forgot what I was going to say.

Ambition, thy name is Sarah.
No hypocrisy too great,
nor obfuscation too small,
thy name is Sarah.
Woe be unto those who
say they are “hockey Moms,
While harboring dreams of treasure.
Who is this woman who acts
as though she is ordinary
even as snobbery is her name
Thy name is Sarah

The fact is, liberals are always jealous of those who are better looking, better dressed, more successful, smarter

Yep, I’m busted. I am green with envy at Barack Obama. Green, I tell you!

$30,000 per family member for clothing isn’t too much is it? A good suit costs around $3000, a decent pair of shoes about $800, a nice watch about $2500, a quality shirt $120, leather belt $80, designer underwear $40, sox $25. cologne $130, deodorant $25, powder $30 = $6750 for one days worth of clothing. $30,000 barely covers the cost of four days clothing. What do people expect the family to do, walk around in their underwear three days per week? Sheesh.

Don’t forget the $2000 nipple rings, gcwall.

If I pay $800 for a pair of shoes, those fuckers better allow me to fly. And anyone who’d pay $130 for a bottle of collogne needs an ass beating on general principles.

And anyone who’d pay $130 for a bottle of collogne needs an ass beating on general principles

I guess you didn’t read through. That’s $130 of cologne for one day and then $130 for the next…

But gcwall is forgetting that Trig and the other two don’t really need all of that stuff. Bristol? Sure, ya gotta tart up the pregnant teenager – it adds to the wholesomeness.

It’s the liberals who are eleite and out of touch sipping lattes, not Sarah, who hunts moose.

“At a California rally on Saturday, however, Palin told an adoring crowd she’d recently seen a quotation she liked on her cup of Starbucks mocha.”

Does mocha have Joe-the-Plumber level cred that lattes do not?

Given that Gov. Palin charges Alaska for every night she spends in her own home (as opposed to the Governor’s mansion) – I expect these dresses were just her version of the AIG post-bailout spree at that Southern California spa.

Oh, and $150,000 in dresses divided by $400/haircut = 375 times as much. IOKIYAR!

There’s a nice thread building over on HuffPo about how McCain & Palin are starting to get openly hostile & disdainful of each other. They have the “chemistry” that we in Hollywood associate with other disastrous pairings, such as “Gigli.”

Apparently, it’s starting to dawn on McCain that this doofy bimbo to his right is costing him his last shot at the presidency. She was shoved down his throat by Rush Limbaugh and the rest of the hyper-Christian mouth-breathers who have hijacked the party.

McCain is a mean fucker, through and through. And when all this is over, and he’s faced with the fact that Rush and those shitsmears cost him the presidency by demanding some kind of dimwit moose-shooter to appeal to their “Bubba” base, he’s gonna settle in for some cruel, ice-blooded payback. That whole “Fairness Doctrine” thing that Reagan jettisoned back in the 80s? Hmmmm. Might find some movement across the aisle on that thing, if the Democrats reintroduce it in the spring.

There will be howls of outrage, and lots of tense phone calls trying to work the surviving Senators and Reps to vote against this. Culminating in Mac smiling that Count Chocula smile of his as he grits out, “Fuck me, Rush? No. Fuck YOU.”
