Republican "Change"Tue, 09/09/2008 - 11:10am
By: Main Stream
This is the kind of "change" Palin and McCain will bring to Washington? "Earmarks" for the family....cool! "The governor's daughters and husband charged the state $43,490 to travel... In separate filings, the state was billed about $25,000 for Palin's daughters' expenses and $19,000 for her husband's. Flights topped the list for the most expensive items, and the daughter whose bill was the highest was Piper, 7, whose flights cost nearly $11,000, while Willow, 14, claimed about $6,000 and Bristol, 17, accounted for about $3,400. Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has billed taxpayers for 312 nights spent in her own home during her first 19 months in office, charging a "per diem" allowance intended to cover meals and incidental expenses while traveling on state business. ...clearly, it is and it looks like a scam -- you pay yourself to live at home," he said." Yup, yup... this is change we can believe in. TAXPAYER FUNDED "BENEFITS" FOR PALIN login to post comments | previous forum topic | next forum topic |
