Sarah Plain is a Liar and a Crook
Sarah Palin won’t stop lying about her support for the Bridge to Nowhere: she’s up to repeating it 23 times.
Well if she didn’t support it, how comes she’s holding up this tee-shirt so proudly?
On top of being a liar, Palin is also a crook, bilking the taxpayers for per diems she wasn’t entitled to, including travel expenses and food expenses:
laska 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.
The governor also has charged the state for travel expenses to take her children on official out-of-town missions. And her husband, Todd, has billed the state for expenses and a daily allowance for trips he makes on official business for his wife.
Palin, who earns $125,000 a year, claimed and received $16,951 as her allowance, which officials say was permitted because her official “duty station” is Juneau, according to an analysis of her travel documents by The Washington Post.
The governor’s daughters and husband charged the state $43,490 to travel, and many of the trips were between their house in Wasilla and Juneau, the capital city 600 miles away, the documents show.
The woman and her husband each earn 6 digit salaries, and they’re eating on the taxpayers’ dime? Sweet!
Oh, and that chef she supposedly fired?
Remember the long-time executive chef who lost her job at the Mansion when Sarah decided to live mostly in Wasilla instead of Juneau? Stefani Marnon was first reassigned as a “constituent relations assistant” in the governor’s office and later to the state museum.
Earwigs report she’s finally landed where they really appreciate a good chef: the Legislative Lounge.
I want to be governor of Alaska so I can use other people’s money to feed myself and to pay for may travel when I sty home. Believe me, I need the money a lot more than Sarah Palin does.

I’m back. I just noticed my neighbor has put a “Women for McCain” yard sign up. I’m surrounded by fundies, it’s real creepy. My daughter told me to go over there tonight and mess it up with a marker. Can’t do that, they have camera’s on their yard. Not kidding, they want to catch the people that keep blowing up their mailbox. Bizzaro world or what. yikes.
