burdturglersays...This is just what's been disclosed since September.
Politico:
"A review of similar records for the campaign of Democrat Barack Obama and the Democratic National Committee turned up no similar spending.
But all the spending by other candidates pales in comparison to the GOP outlay for the Alaska governor whose expensive, designer outfits have been the topic of fashion pages and magazines.
What hasn’t been apparent is where the clothes came from – her closet back in Wasilla or from the campaign coffers in Washington.
The answer can be found inside the RNC’s September monthly financial disclosure report under “itemized coordinated expenditures.”
It’s a report that typically records expenses for direct mail, telephone calls and advertising. Those expenses do show up, but the report also has a new category of spending: “campaign accessories.”
September payments were also made to Barney’s New York ($789.72) and Bloomingdale’s New York ($5,102.71).
Macy’s in Minneapolis, another store fortunate enough to be situated in the Twin Cities that hosted last summer’s Republican National Convention, received three separate payments totaling $9,447.71. The entries also show a few purchases at Pacifier, a top notch baby store, and Steiniauf & Stroller Inc., suggesting $295 was spent to accommodate the littlest Palin to join the campaign trail. An additional $4,902.45 was spent in early September at Atelier, a high-class shopping destination for men."
budzossays...Ugh, dear lord, THAT HAIR HAS GOT TO GO.
BillOreillysays...Miss Palin would look fine in Wal-Mart clothes, she needs no beauty help.
I think the RNC should really give the 150k to Rachel Maddow and her man-cut, I doubt it would help much, but miracles do happen...
honkeytonk73says...Jesus would without a doubt wholeheartedly agree with BillOreilly, as would his talking snake magic friend and all his humanoid bird-winged fairy buddies flying above the cloud tops in magical LA LA land.
Palin sure gets the Jesus Juice(tm) flowing.
Januarisays...Guess the RNC didn't agree with you BillO... in fact they clearly did think she needed it...
In the end no amount of cash is going to 'perty' up Palin on the inside... In the end shes little more than a barbie doll anyway...
kageninsays...John Edward's $400 haircut sounds less and less unreasonable compared to this...
Trancecoachsays...*zing
imstellar28says...okay, and obama and mccain want to spend $1.5 trillion that we don't have on programs which will f*ck the economy even more.
