Hahaha they are going to donate the clothes to charity after, so it's okay? A radio report I heard this morning noted one expense was a $2500 Valentino jacket.

This isn't, to me, even a political-party issue so much as it demonstrates the serious class divide in our culture. If the Repubs want to waste campaign dollars on that shit, let them. If the State of Alaska doesn't audit their financial records closely enough to note that the governor is abusing her power, more fools they. I'm just glad to see this type of government waste be noticed, so that in the future we the People may feel that our tax dollars are being used for the reasons we are satisfied to pay them: Improvements in the quality of life of the average American. Not to line the pockets of the elite.
