Sarah Palin's $150,000 Real Life Reality Makeover

There is no way that this country is going to be much better under an Obama rule! He and the Democrates will ruin this country as they have so far already demonstrated. Two years of Democtratic rule in both the House of Representatives and Congress has proven costly to this country. If you are a reporter, please we beg you to do your job and put your selfish reason aside. Have you been promised an exclusive or a position in the Massiah's cabinet? GET REAL!!! McCain's the most qualified to be president at this time. Obama is a talented and gifted young man, but still try to find himself. Has only reinvented himself four of five times since he began his journey for the presidency. I'm not one to vote blindly or only because of race as some in the democratic party. Yes, this is a history race on so many levels. However, at this time I don't see the democratic party as the party to lead this country. Palosi, Reed, Obama and Biden, are such idiots, because none of them have risen above the party line. They have compromised the livelyhoods of every average American. They are never going to see what it's really like to live paycheck to paycheck. Or to do decide weather you should pay a bill or buy groceries and now add gasoline to the factor.

The main problem here is the economy. Sending aid to other countries need to be taken off the table. They don't get it anyway. Just the Politians. But neither canidate or Palosi and the gang will not do that! Cutting our military will not make it go away, it will make us weaker. We will no longer be the stronger America we once were. Where's our Superman???

Obama is not the anwer...we have over looked so many of his charater flaws that will only put this country in further jeopardy. Have we forgotten 9-11? Better yet, condsider the possiblity that Obama and his life long allies, TERRORIST in the like, may have funded and plotted to make this happen in order to take over the U.S. Why are we so busy looking at the obvious as spun by the democrates. Point the finger at the ill suspecting Republicans. Think about it. The one pointing the finger, has three point back at themselves. All I'm saying is, that Bush was the likely pawnsy. Easy to blame and with the media buying in, well it was perfectly brillant. Sinister, but brillant.

I admint the republicans haven't help themselves. But, they are the least of the worst and should Obama win, as it seems, we will then know what the worst can bring.

p.s. if your dem pit bull come serching my past, i will sue. I STILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH.

MESSAGE TO OBAMA: Enjoy it while you can!!!! Become president and you will be held to the same scrutiny as Bush was.

It's so funny to hear republicans talking about how wonderful Palin is and how she is a "cinderella celebrity"... Wasn't that one of the first major attacks launched by the McCain campaign against Obama; that he was a celebrity that couldn't relate to the "average American"???? Now the McCain campiagn is once again proving how hypocritical they truly are... Glamorizing her "rise" to fame and her "celebrity" status. Now to (over)compinsate Palin is running around making sure to tell every camera in ear shot how she is wearing clothes from her favorite thrift store in Alaska??? WHAT A JOKE!!! By the way... isn't Palin's husband; the first dude (how lame), a sucessionist? Oh that must be why she thinks America is so great... The republicans are trying to hoodwink us AGAIN!!!

Palin simply appears to lack common sense which makes her a poor candidate and eventually a poor office holder. She fails to realize the campaign comes first with fun stuff afterward. Her wardrobe could have waited till after election day as well as her SNL appearance. She should be studying on her role as VP and eventually President if needed. Failure to understand both positions completely is not only irresponsible but unacceptable. She must stop acting like a giggly schoolgirl and take her positions seriously whether it is governor, VP or the top job. Playtime is over!!!

Sarah Palin has more Executive experience than all canadiates combined. She speaks for more than the elite media if we want to give them such a positive name. So glad for other news organizations these days. Glad for prayer. The Lord above is in charge of this election no matter what role anyone plays. Looking forward to standing for values, not billfold. I want to leave a legacy for my granddaughter, grandma @grandpa cared about the ten commandments. We cared about the constitution. We cared about the declaration of independence. We cared about Israel. We cared about religon being free. We cared about guns to protect ourselves. We cared about other countries that did not have the same rights. If needed to go to battle to defend our freedom. We cared that America was founded on christian principles. There are so many things that Sarah stands for. We in the community of fevor prayer have her back. Her and McCain. As the Lord Jesus Christ moves on this country no matter the far left plans, were are still out here waking up one at a time. Rise up Church of Abraham, Issac @ Jacob, bring your country back to its roots,Judeo-Christian vales. For the Jewish people that are voting so they are not accused of race, forget the quilt. Vote values, legacy for your children and childrens children. Abortion under all circumstances,ask yourself that question? A man that is avioding at all costs where he was born. A man that thought we had 57 states. A man that was only in the senate for around 100 days before running for the highest seat in the land. A man that I believe does not really care about us over his own agenda. A man that has no problem with characters that are questionable incharacter. Blew up our gov. buildings. Is not sorry for it, unrepentant. Wishes he could have done more. Blew up police stations. Not sorry at all.Had a glitch in his hearing and got off. Is wanyting to give us a change we will be so sorry for. You all out there need to pray to the good Lord. Not just any God and ask Him to help you choose this Nov. You will give an account one day for your choices. Love you from Ohio Marilyn

Does anyone question everyone equally instead of just Palin. I wonder how much was put into Hillary, or Mrs. Obama. I'd even have to wonder what Obama's wardrobe expenses are? Does he get his hands manicured regularly? If she would look dishelved, people would make fun of her like they did Condoleezz Rice. If she's polished, she gets criticized for the money spent. What, they can't find something real to criticize her for? What's spent on Biden?

This hype regarding Sarah Palin's clothing is ridiculous. Apparently, those who oppose McCain and Palin cannot find anything of substance for use as a legitimate issue, so go after her wardrobe. It shows the total lack of focus on the left regarding what really matters in this country. Take a long look at your net worth, because, if Obama is elected, you will be worth less, you will lose more of your liberty, and, you you will have missed your chance to protect what the Founding Fathers fought to establish.

Michelle's outfit impressed everyone whn eshe was on The View from what I read. Cost $156. Read, once in while, my friends. The "media" have tried to bring up those folks you mentioned. Tried and tried. But there's no "there" there. Sorry. Not an issue. You can whine all you want.

It's hilarious to me how the right is so fast to throw someone under the bus when they have the audacity to disagree. How long wasn't Powell the right's hero. A black man on OUR side. Woo hoo. Now...they can't even spell his name. Look it up. Sheesh.

Turn off Rush and Hannity for a minute.

OKAY. I've owned the house for a while, and I guess it has gone up in value, well, HAD gone up in value.

The operative word here is HYPOCRISY.

John is busing around Florida on a "Joe the Plumber" tour while Sarah is explaining to anyone (fewer and fewer) who will listen that she hasn't even worn all those clothes, they're stowed in the luggage compartment of her jet.

John's married to a $250 million dollar babe. Sarah and Todd are millionaires. Or were before the price of BP stock crashed.

As to Carrie and crew and her Manolo Blaniks (sp?), she had to persuade Charlotte to sell her engagement ring so Carrie could buy her condo. There's a price to be paid --- and Sarah's is "North to Alaska."

The CliffsNotes never thought there would be a market for `VP Candidate for Dummies.' They could have made Sarah Palin the only copy for $150,000 to recoup the entire cost.

Dan Blank of NE 10:43PM October 23, 2008

What she's wearing is just another attempt by the mainstream media illuminati to distract the people. We should look at the issues, and the crisis we're in. The elitist had the control, and that's why you're finding her clothes as to what their mainstream media buddies are airing.
