Did this already get posted with Palin making her own complete denials of owning the clothes and the McCain Campaign actually denying her statements?

Saw it somewhere around here. It's particularly interesting when combined with a bit I heard on "Wait Wait Don't Tell Me" - apparently some of the stores in question are saying that they certainly never sold anybody as much merchandise as the McCain campaign is claiming they spent there.

LOL, nothin' says lovin' like pork barrelling a campaign.

I mean governments have gotten more sophisticated in their anti-embezzlement measures. Not that that stops any of the usual suspects, but it takes work. And possibly connections. Political campaigns on the other hands...

Well, nothing makes graft easier than huge quantities of money + secrecy + desperation.

But the clothes are going to be donated to charity afterwards!

Remember, giving health care to middle class families and not cutting taxes on people who make a quarter million a year is Marxism, but giving 1,000 dollar designer jackets and pumps to homeless people is great.

One assumes they mean "selling the clothes and donating the proceeds to charity," not giving designer clothing to the poor.

Then again, these are Palin's people talking.

(Okay I guess there are some employment assistance programs that could use them fuck you shut up.)

Out of all the accusations and scandals whirling around her, the one that dug under her skin was about what she wore.

See the guy in my avatar?

He gave up and went home. Even he can't compete with that kind of ridiculous idiot trolling.

So are there six days left to quickly replace her with somebody else, or were running mates registered and locked in months ago?

Where would Canada be without Quebec?  It would be a lot more boring..

This really takes the cake.

I can't find anybody with actual fact-checking claiming it's a fake, so........ yep.

You'd think the conservatives wouldn't be so enthusiastically polite to France.

Nah, Sarko has done much to warm up relations between France and, well, everyone from Canada, the US, Syria, the EU, and anyone he can.  The guy's probably the best thing that's happened to France in terms of foreign relations, albiet at one of the worst times possible.  He deserves all the respect he gets.  All of it.

If you're skeptical, check Google News.  All the big boys are publishing it.

Er, the implication there was that the conservatives had a stick up their asses, not that there was anything actually wrong with France.

...

Please do not force me admit that there's nothing wrong with France ever again.
