As long as she''s a candidate Palin is only spending Republican money. If she wins, she''ll be spending your money.

But on the bright side concerning this story, McCain''s economic advisor is going to qualify for a tax cut under Obama, Palin''s stylist won''t!!

This story is hilarious. How appropriate that the campaign paid more for makeup than for a foreign policy adviser. Who is trying to hide something here? You can hide alot under all that makeup.

$22,000 in two weeks...wow...I don''t know...the whole disgusting Republican attitude about every thing is so unbelievable to me that these kind of expenditures seem in keeping with their values. When McCain''s wife shows up to the Republican Convention in a $300,000 outfit, a little $22,000 hair stylist bill sounds like peanuts.

A plumber who makes $250,000 a year, a hairstylist who makes $22,800 in two weeks.

This is the beautiful world of McCain/Palin.

While the rest of us regular folks find it hard just to put food on the table and gas in the car.

The sad part of this is the millions of people who voted for Bush last election won''t get to read this so they won''t be affected. And why won''t they read this? Well, its fairly obvious that none of them read...They aren''t going to move over to the Democratic side with their little votes, because they don''t use their brains to vote, they use their little hearts...and the sure promise of more middle east mayhem just gets all those little rednecks going! God (if there is one) save us!

Palin is a miserable piece of trailer trash who happens to look better than Ellie Mae Clampett, and is clearly pimping for a gig on a TV show where she''ll make 7-8 figures with her Sean Hannity assininity.... Frankly, she and Rush Limpballs would be a right-wing-freak-show "par excellance."

The stylist probably deserved it. Can you imagine what a task it would be to put Lipstick on a Pig. Palin probably squealed all the way.

He.ck, I can''t even afford for my boys to play hockey. All of these people live in bubbles that are completely opposite of everyone they represent. They couldn''t care less about me or you. If you think they do, there is something wrong with you.

Are there any "hockey moms", you know, regular people, out there who have, in their entire life spent $23,000 on hairdos????

"Palin''''s traveling stylist, was paid $22,800, according to campaign finance reports for two weeks in October."

"In contrast, McCain''''s foreign policy adviser, Randy Scheunemann, was paid $12,500, the report showed."

Never mind the fact that McCain/Palin claim to be against wasteful spending, it''''s the fact that the McCain campaign chose to spend nearly twice as much on Pailin''''s hair than on foreign policy.

This was reflected in the debates and will be reflected if McCain is elected.

Well put. It says a lot about McSame and his campaign that Miss Alaska''s hairdo is more important than foreign policy. And this, from the guy who claims that only he is qualified on foreign policy matters!

It has been learned that the neocon Fascist Republican National Committee and the McBush campaign committee have paid Sarah "Shopper Mom" Palin''s makeup artist almost $23,000 for 2 weeks work on Ms Troopergate!

Upon hearing the expenditures spent on the supposed "hockey mom" over the past several months, it is believed that Palin''s expenditures could be approaching the size of the national debt!

After spending that kind of money on Caribeau Barbie, it is no wonder that McBush and the RNC were so upset about Obama''s remark about a "pig with lipstick"!

And all paid for by the campaign contributions of neocon Fascist Nazi Republicans who stupidly believed their money was going to elect John McBush McCain!!!

SIG HEIL, I THINK I''LL HAVE PALIN''S MAKEUP ARTIST DYE MY HAIR!!!, BUSH!!!
sig heil, IT''S ALL THE FAULT OF THOSE UN-AMERICAN "ELITISTS"!!!, McBush!!!
sig heil, I WANT TO BE ON "DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES" NEXT!!!, Palin!!!

The economy is in the tank and we are fighting 2 expensive and bloody wars abroad.
Paying a stylist more than a foreign policy adviser speaks volumes of McCain judgement and how he plans to win this election.
I though the campagn slogan was ''Country first" not Palin first.
With judgement like this Bush looks better every day.

All those advisors must think they are in the wrong field. I can just see them all lining up to go to beauty school.
