So what the GOP spent $150 K on clothes for Palin, She might possibly be VP, so she deserves it. How many perks and free stuff have BOTH PARTIES received from the American taxpayers for years now? Give it a break, please. And for the record has anyone shopped at Abercrombie and/or The Gap lately? For a family as big as Palins (and growing by the minute), $150k really isn't that much.
and whats more.. Palin could afford her own clothing, but she used campaign funds to get really expensive ones instead. As Michelle pointed out when people went gaga over her inexpensive clothes before all this started, there are great clothes in all price ranges.
You lefties are really grasping ! get you're facts straight.
Any body know how much all those large pantsuits cost Hillary?
Who cares? She paid for them HERSELF!

Probably not, since she paid for them HERSELF! It has not been completely decided that the clothes will be given to charity. When the story broke, the repubs came up with that.
"You know when you buy your first house? It's this sense of being rooted," Pinto said of her store, where prices range from $250 for silk blouses to $5,000 for a hand-embellished gown.

So freaking what? Michelle pays for them herself! I don't get how people can't understand that paying for your own clothes is different than getting them paid for with well-intended campaign donations.
