Did you hear this story on all the network news broadcasts and in every newspaper like you did the Palin wardrobe issue? No, of course you didn't. My first reaction is what an ungrateful person she is. They don't buy their kids x-mas presents, but she takes a $5,000 pair of earrings back and exchanges them for a $12,000 pair because she doesn't like them. She is the one who said you could only buy a pair of earrings with Bush's $600 stimulus payment. There is a real double standard in the coverage. Michelle goes out and hires an interior designer for the stars to redecorate the White House. Oh, that's cool. When Nancy Reagan did it, she was a Leona Helmsley bitch who was spending money on herself while the rest of the country was in a recession.Gary R.

So, YE...Now I can't tell when you're being ironic. So, YES, it WAS fair game to talk about Palin's Hundred Thousand Dollar wardrobe or no? I can't tell if you're talking about $12,000 earrings because you REALLY think that it's inappropriate, or because D's went after Palin for her expensive tastes. If it's really a problem for you, do you mind me asking WHAT purchases are okay? For example, exactly how much IS okay to pay for earrings, AI? I want you to tell us here, this way we can remember your answer and make sure you use the "earring test" for all future political candidates whom you support. <BR/><BR/>I'm predicting no response from you.Chris Wordenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00558836541249077077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-61199214296442967032009-01-25T11:56:00.000-05:002009-01-25T11:56:00.000-05:00Art, would it get through to you had I not neglect...Art, would it get through to you had I not neglected to enclose that in quotation marks?

Reports are that her job has been eliminated now that the Obamas have gone to the White House. The Obamas often lived beyond their financial means courtesy of taking kickbacks for political favors. The $1.6 million house Tony Rezko helped the couple purchase as exhibit number one. It is held in a trust managed by Rezko's personal attorney.Gary R.
