The Empress’s New Clothes

October

The roar of outrage over Sarah Palin’s $150k makeover from the people who roared with outrage over John Edward’s $400 haircut is truly deafening.

Although, like the John Edwards silliness, I think Sarah Palin’s wardrobe is a non-issue. She’s running for Veep for Godsakes. She needs duds.
It’s not her fault that the pool of people she simplistically panders to happen to consider $150k, oh, about three years wages. I don’t see what all the fuss is about. Do you?

One Response to “The Empress’s New Clothes”

Sarah Palin, who claims to be the maverick reformer who is out to save our (and Joe the Plumber’s) money in Washington has revealed herself to be just another politico who preaches one thing (fiscal. moral and personal responsibility) and lives another. Republicans rail against the “elitist” democrats while proving themselves to consider themselves above the rest of us. What is most amazing is the number of people who believe this charlatan.
It is disgraceful that the Republicans ever put this over her head, ethically challenged, woman up for election. At least Nixon waited till after he was elected to become the subject of investigations. Her self proclaimed moral superiority is as astonishing as it is false.
