Palin denounces her critics as cowardly

Anchorage, Alaska (AP) -- Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is striking back at critics of the high-priced wardrobe she wore as the Republican vice presidential candidate.

As she returned to the governor's office in Anchorage on Friday, Palin said all she ever asked for was "a Diet Dr. Pepper once in a while."

Palin says the expensive outfits were purchased by the Republican National Committee and they belong to the committee.

She called her critics cowardly for speaking to reporters about her anonymously.

Yeah, the comments are as stupid as can be, but it’s fun because you can do a thumbs down on them. I am only sorry I can only click it once—would be great if lots of freepers took the time to give them thumbs down. Petty, maybe, but it makes you feel a little better, it’s like saying ptttttthhh!

I think Dr. Pepper has a new celebrity spokesperson now.

I am certain it pairs very well with moose meat.

Let’s let Sarah get back to doing her job and see how she is doing.

“Imagine a room full of flaming gays commenting on the dress of any decent heterosexual woman, and you’ve got an idea.”

Bingo! We have a winner!

Looks like we both have a big anniversary next month on FR.

LOL! I was vaguely aware "My decade of FR" was creeping up,
but I did need your reminder!

I'll never forget my stumbling into this place via a link on Drudge.

Life has never been the same!
Even if some of the gawd-awful truth about some un-American activities
that I learned here (not in the MSM!) did turn the stomach a bit!!!

Gov Palin has to start campaigning NOW for 2012. Campaigning for the The Presidential Election is longer than past years.

Where is the Sarah 4 President 2012 website? When you google Sarah Palin President, several satire sites come up. There isn't a central web domain to get this grass roots 2012 Presidential run going. We need to be more web savy this go round.

Why isn't anyone on our side better at understanding the web?

25,400,000 “President Sarah Palin” google hits (it's weird that it's such an exact number...hmmm)

I drink Diet Dr. Pepper, too! Good stuff!

The comments that are being sold as leaks from staffers are qualitatively a match for the comments made by the Demo party and their minions in the first week of her joining the campaign.

All this is coming from the DNC. SOS...

I’ll readily admit that I know nothing of high fashion prices — Mrs. Branch is quite content to burn up the registers at Talbot’s.

But like so much of the reporting about Palin, I find it very hard to believe 150K was spent on clothing for the Palins, even if it was for the whole family.

Do suits at Neiman cost $5,000 or some such outrageous number? What is the source of this 150K number?

My baloney meter is pegged.

I have utterly lost all respect for Mr. McCain.

when he asked her to run with him, she should have said, no thank you Sir.

I’ve been in news avoidance mode ... has McCain done nothing yet to defend Sarah against these ridiculous charges?
