Obama-Biden T-shirt

[justanotherbozo]

It was just reported today that the RNC has paid over $150,000 for clothes and fashion accessories for Governor Palin since she got the nomination! Holy crap! She spent $!50,000 on clothes in less than 2 months! If she had spent it on $30 Obama-Biden T-shirts she could have 5000 of them! Or she could have stopped at 500 and saved her party $135,000!

Hey, Republican donors, it's time to send in some more cash! Baby needs a new pair of shoes!

Obama is outspending McCain by 3 to 1 so he is trying to beg, borrow and steal this election.

and have you any idea how much was spent on Barry's wardrobe?
i'd bet those suits he wears cost over $2000.00 each, and his old lady
isn't exactly dressed in rags either

Obama is outspending McCain by 3 to 1 so he is trying to beg, borrow and steal this election.

Obama is outsmarting McCains tactics by 3-1. I realize its a very Republican thing to beg,borrow,or steal elections. Don't confuse that with true enthusiasm.

[dragonrider]

Do you REALLY want to discuss what they're spending on the campaign trail? Do you REALLY want to compare what the DNC has spent on Obama and his campaign?

Much like everything; I have a list :thumbsup:

My point in bringing this up was that it is ironic and funny considereing she is running as an ordinary "hockey mom," who is trying to appeal to "Joe Sixpacks" and "Joe the Plumbers" across the nation. How many hockey moms and plumbers do you know who can spend $20,000 a week on clothes? Does Paris Hilton even spend that much a week on clothes? Shit, I hope some of that clothing is fancy moose-hunting gear and snowmobile suits --- something they can use when they go back to Alaska!

This thing is another non-issue, and I know that. But I love to bring up the non-issues when they turn around bite the Republicans in the ass for the same non-issue they were criticising the Democrats for. Remember when John Edwards got slammed for his $400.00 haircut? And when Hillary got hit for her $3000 stylist bill? It was BS then and BS now, but worth bringing up since apparently this kind of thing matters to the Republicans who brought it up in the first place.

As for what the Obama campaign is spending, at least in regards to clothes, the candidates buy their own --- the campaigns do not buy them because that is illegal. The Democratic Party does not buy them either. In the case of Palin, the Republican party is buying them for her, so if Joe the Plumber has made any donations to the RNC, he should know that part of it is going to pay for Palin's shopping sprees at Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue. Ha ha ha ha!

Now that's maverick reform, baby! Way to look out for wasteful spending! Can't wait for her to clean up Washington, or at least clean out the inventory at Saks! Ha ha ha ha!

She's like a one-woman bailout for the troubled fashion industry!

I can tell it bothers you --- the wasteful spending, the over-the-top disregard for the troubles of ordinary people, how out of touch it seems with everyday life in America. I feel your pain.

[justanotherbozo]

I can tell it bothers you.

lol, it scares me dude, and not for me, for my children.

as i've said before, i stand to benefit personally by an Obama
victory, i just don't want to sell my children's future down
the road just so i can reap a few more benefits.

mark my words dude, if he gets in, you, personally, will
live to regret it, especially if you work for a living.

and especially if you're a working American earning $200,000.00,
why bother trying a little harder to get to $250,000.00 when,
if you do, Uncle Barry will only come take it from you so HE
can spread it around.

God help us all!

and especially if you're a working American earning $200,000.00,

Palin is just too damn stupid, and inexperienced, to be the vice president, and possibly the president if McCain dies while in office.

As for her preference for "small town" living and patriotism: I live in New York, not Mayberry. Why doesn't somebody tell Palin that over 80% of Americans live in cities and suburbs? The Republicans are gong to get the results they deserve.

As bad as Obama's tax policies might turn out to be, it's nothing compared to the stupidity of McCain and his running mate.

Political Memo
A Riveting Speaker, Waving the Flag

By Patrick Healy

RICHMOND, Va. â?? Here is the thing about Gov. Sarah Palin: She loves America. Really loves it.

She loves the smell of cut grass and hay, as she told Ohio voters Sunday. She loves Navy bases, she said in Virginia Beach on Monday morning. She loves Americaâ??s â??most beautiful national anthem,â?� she told a crowd here a few hours later.

Apparently there are people who do not feel the same way about America as Ms. Palin does, she said at campaign rallies over the last two days. Those people just do not get it.

â??Man, I love small-town U.S.A.,â?� Ms. Palin told several thousand people on a field in Ohio, â??and I donâ??t care what anyone else says about small-town U.S.A. You guys, you just get it.â?�

Ms. Palin did not identify who â??anyone elseâ?� was. But listening to her campaign speeches three weeks before the presidential election, an informed voter would not need two chances to guess between Senator Barack Obama and John McCain. (The posters reading â??Barack Bin Lyinâ?� at the McCain-Palin rally in Virginia Beach might be a hint, too.)

â??John McCain is always, always proud to be an American,â?� Ms. Palin told more than 10,000 people at the Richmond International Raceway.

â??U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.!â?� she continued, leading many of them in chant.

As the Republican vice-presidential nominee for six and a half weeks now, Ms. Palin has emerged as the most electrifying speechmaker among the four politicians on the major party tickets. She generates enormous fervor at her events; people sometimes do not stop clapping or shouting words of praise until Ms. Palin pauses.

But Ms. Palinâ??s partisan zeal could repel some independent voters in closely contested states like New Hampshire and Pennsylvania; Democratic polling in both states shows Ms. Palin with high negative ratings among independents. Palin advisers say many of these voters do not know enough about her; Ms. Palin is campaigning in Pennsylvania on Tuesday and New Hampshire on Wednesday.

In some ways, Ms. Palin seems like a 2.0 version of George W. Bush â?? not the deeply unpopular president, but the plain-spoken and energetic campaigner who rose as a political talent in Texas and solidified his appeal in the 2000 and 2004 presidential campaigns. Hers, like his, is a with-us-or-against-us message, as when Ms. Palin pledges total solidarity with â??good, hard-working, patriotic Americans.â?�

â??For a campaign that says itâ??s all about the future,â?� Ms. Palin said to a mix of applause (for her) and boos (for you-know-who) in Richmond, â??do you notice that our opponents sure have spent a heck of a lot of time looking to the past and pointing fingers? You look to the past because thatâ??s where you find blame, but weâ??re joining you and looking to the future, because thatâ??s where you find solutions.â?�

â??America, doggone it, unfortunately weâ??re deep in debt, and Barack Obama would put us even deeper in debt,â?� she added a few minutes later.

â??Weâ??ve got to reverse this. America, we cannot afford another big spender in the White House.â?�

Ms. Palinâ??s speeches do not acknowledge that looking at past mistakes is one way to avoid making those mistakes again. And her addresses gloss over some uncomfortable details, like that the most recent big spender in the White House is the Republican now there.

Ms. Palin also rarely ends up in the weeds of policy details on the economy, health care or Iraq. When it comes to generalizing, she can muster awfully strong passion, as in discussing Mr. McCainâ??s ability to get out of a jam.

â??Heâ??s got the guts to confront the $10 trillion debt that the federal government has run up,â?� Ms. Palin said in Virginia Beach as Mr. McCain looked on with a stiff smile, â??and we will balance the budget by the end of our term.â?�

If there are holes in logic or a lack of specifics in Ms. Palinâ??s speeches, her audiences tend to fill the absence with gushing affection.

â??Sheâ??s intelligent, sheâ??s adorable and she has the audacity to speak her mind,â?� said Ray Gilson of Corapeake, N.C., who attended the Virginia Beach rally. â??Iâ??ve never loved a politician like I love her. I want her to be president someday.â?�

Kathy Seals, a Republican voter who attended the Richmond event, said she admired Ms. Palin for â??unabashedly speaking the truth, especially about life and the choices she made about her baby, Trig, and with her daughter.â?�

Ms. Palinâ??s infant son, who has Down syndrome, is a frequent presence in his motherâ??s left arm as she shakes hands with supporters and moves from event to event.

Her references to her son are the most personal part of her speech, as she describes being scared when she first learned that the baby would have special needs. She and her husband, Todd, talked, prayed, reflected and ultimately decided to have the child.

â??There are the worldâ??s standards of perfection, and thatâ??s what you see in some magazines, and then there are Godâ??s standards,â?� she said at the Ohio rally Sunday night and repeated in Virginia on Monday. â??Godâ??s standards are the final measure. Every child is beautiful before God, and dear to them for their own sake.â?�

Even on this subject, though, Ms. Palin saw little common ground with â??our opponents.â?�

â??Itâ??s not negative and not mean-spirited in a campaign to check out our opponentâ??s record,â?� Ms. Palin said, citing Mr. Obamaâ??s positions on late-term abortions. Smiling, she added, â??Iâ??ll let you judge for yourself.â?�
