AMERICAblog: McCain vetting missed another problem: Palin billed Alaska for sleeping in her own home

    So basically she is a stay at home mom as well as a hockey mom and she and her family are on welfare...next she'll be claiming she is a poor black woman with 5 hungry kids and a deadbeat dad.

    let's not forget that also the tax payers are most likely covering sarah and her family for health insurance and her unwed teenage daughter is pregnant -- that means the tax payers are paying for bristol palin's pregnancy and last time i checked an unwed teenage mother using tax payer money to cover her baby expenses was called 'being on welfare'

    these fucking people!
  • JohnInTexas · 1 year ago
    Yep. And if she's putting the checkbook online for everyone to see it, then she's hiding something.
  • vkobaya · 1 year ago
    You are insinuating that there is something wrong with being black as if all black families have deadbeat fathers. Go to hell.
  • JohnInTexas · 1 year ago
    Um...not insinuating that at all.
  • Tyke · 1 year ago
    Well you do need to spend those funds collected from charging rape victims for the forensic tests associated with the crimes against them somewhere. Why not into Ms Sarah's own pockets?

    You don't think there's any better place - do you?

    And yet the polls, according the MSM, are 48-48???????????
    I give up.

    It is self-evident: the polls are rigged.

    When you look at other non 'scientific' metrics, Obama is about 75%.

    I mean non-formal things, like Obama merchandise outselling McCain at better then a 3:1 margin.

    Or Obama easily drawing a crowd of 200,000 while McCain can barely draw 3000.

    Or voters registering as Democratic in huge numbers.

    She represents the highest ideals of the GOP.

    Glad to see cnn picked up on something that was being missed imho; that palin's religion isn't just "evangelical"...NO shes a freaking pentacostal... Speaks in tongues and shit...most folk, even moron american taliban christian right know the pentacosts are nutjobs. seriously. that shit is freaking dangerously whack. in my personal religious searchings years ago, I went to one or two pentacost church meetings...I swear it felt like evil was there. the speaking in tongues shit is just utter brain death garbage.
  • ComradeRutherford · 1 year ago
    I went to one youth-oriented evangelical service ... once.

    When they served out the holy eucharist in individual servings, they threw out 3000 one-ounce plastic cups! Just one 'church' at just one service! How is that not evil?
  • vkobaya · 1 year ago
    Come off it! Pentacostals come in good and bad varieties. Has nothing to do with their politics. The idea that all petacostals are evil right wing Republicans is just like Bush painting all Muslims as evil, America hating terrorists and that you can't be a loyal, patriotic American unless you are a God fearing white, male, Protestant Christian of Northern European extraction.

    She's teaching her children a valuable Republican life lesson:

    How to scam money form the gullible taxpayers!

    This is a big deal. Anyone who works as a civil servant, or in our military, gets this. People go to prison for this kind of thing.

    actually wasilla is over 800 miles away from the gov's mansion at 716 calhoun avenue, juneau -- also does anybody else not think it odd that a 44 yr old woman on her 5th pregnancy with a baby with down syndrome was able to fly over 10k-20k miles during her pregnancy -- each trip from juneau to wasilla alone is 800+ miles -- also she was in her anchorage offices quite a bit, that's 45 miles from wasilla, still about 800 miles from juneau -- and that is not including her thousands of miles flying around the country

    this lady stinks to high heaven!

    If a person will lie to you, they will steal from you.

    Well, she had to pay her private chef somehow...
  • Mollie · 1 year ago
    Even The Anchorage Daily News seems to be against Palin. There are a lot of aricles that shows how crooked she is. That's from her home state. Her husband is in half of her corruption. What Gov. can have her husband sit in for meetings and have a say so in it ?
  • cmpnwtr · 1 year ago
    She bills the citizens of Alaska to live in her own home. She bills the citizens to install a personal tanning parlor in the governor's mansion. Got to have that sexy body all tanned, courtesy of the public!
  • munjoyfan · 1 year ago
    What !this is great stuff. Where is the Obama ad with these facts? I gotta tell you, the Obama campaign is invisible in the media here in Maine. McCain has constant news paper coverage. Obama signs are up, but no electronic media presence. People are calling him "an empty suit".

    It amazes me that anyone would even consider voting Republican
