Look who's been "palling around" with Neiman Marcus....

| | Comments (2) |

The Republican Party's definitely been "spreading the wealth around" by making the small town girl and her family look good.

The expenses include $75,062 spent at Neiman Marcus in Minneapolis Minn., and $41,850 in St. Louis in early September. The committee also reported spending $4,100 for makeup and hair consulting. The expenses were first reported by Politico.com.

"With all of the important issues facing the country right now, it's remarkable that we're spending time talking about pantsuits and blouses," said McCain spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt, who has been traveling with Palin.

She's right. We could be talking more about serious issues, like Bill Ayers and terrorist fist-bumps and the so-called Marxist threat posed by the standard-bearers of America's largest political party.

Mr. Asghar, is it really necessary to consume valuable server space with this sort of drivel? Can you explain why we should care about the amount of money Sarah Palin spends at department stores? I suppose you thought it was okay for your buddy Bill Clinton to spend hundreds of dollars on a haircut and to shut down LAX in the process.

But let's talk about Bill Ayers. Barack Obama is a left-wing ideologue and therefore unfit for national office. How do we know he's a left-wing ideologue? Because of his voting record, which is slightly to the left of Ted Kennedy. And because of his associations with Reverend Wright and, yes, unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers. Hence, Bill Ayers is a more serious issue because it provides one clue as to where Obama will lead this country politically. Sorry, but I think this matters more than to know Palin prefers Neiman Marcus over Nordstrom.

By the way, why are you avoiding my question concerning your new friend Colin Powell?

I want to take this opportunity to thank the bloggers at Friendly Fire (minus Gail, who must surely be Sean Hannity's secret lover). Why? Because I've been able to increase my daily dosage of leftist drivel. Now, I can enjoy Friendly Fire during the day and then Keith Olbermann at night.

P.S. I hope Sarah Palin purchased some sexy lingeire, too.
