According to Fox News, the Alaska governor must reimburse her state approximately $7,000 for unnecessary travel expenses involving nine trips taken by her children.
Fox reports that Palin has to reimburse the money within 120 days, according to a settlement filed by a special investigator who was hired by the Alaska Personnel Board to investigate an ethics complaint....

Meanwhile, they've got a truckful of logs in their other eye that just doesn't seem to bother them...
Waiting for all the tax cheats/deadbeats in Congress to repay the government. ***crickets***
The LATimes of course can’t report this irrelevant banale information without hateful sneers. Barf.
Yeah, I’ll bet ol’ Elizabeth Snead has got 30-40 stories about Obama’s pack of crook thugs, eh?
Everyone read Palins disclosure of the costs and look at the charts, instead of sucking the criminalizing news from MSM crappers:

Yep, you are a mother and have young kids and you take them along on a trip. Thw state won’t even spring for a meal? Prettyu obvious the rules were written with males in mind.
BFD.
Gee, is this investigator available to go to DC ? Rangle, uh...Dodd, Barney and company need some attention, and there is a LOT MORE MONEY involved than 7,000.
Unfortunately Sarah doesn’t stand a chance of success running for president in 2012. The media will butcher her so badly that she’ll be made the Dan Quayle of the contest.
Any tiny bit of controversy they can lay on her will be magnified thousands of times, especially with the Messiah in office. This, despite the fact, she’d be a great candidate.
$7,000? I bet Nancy Pelosi has daily botox induced farts that cost more than that...
Weeeeeeeell... maybe she could take it FROM THE TWO BILLION DOLLARS HER ADMINISTRATION HAS SAVED SINCE SHE TOOK OFFICE.
That’s right, LA Times...$2,000,000,000.00. Where is your story on that? Oh, I almost forgot, you live in the state where socialist idiocy has put the state into the financial toilet. How big is your deficit now? I lose track.
Really glad they are the stewards of the Stimulus.
Write like Reagan did, National Review etc. prolifically
Limit the Rubber Chicken Dinners, high end stuff only, Heritage etc.
Keep a distance from the media, local media the human touch is fine.
But the most important run Alaska like a AAA rated Corp. that will be the resume inhancer bar none.
The tough one? putting a gag order on her own kids....
Stand tall Sarah, these two-year old double-minded crybaby whiners are really really scared of you. They prefer US to go down the socialist dead end path than allow you the same respect they believe they are owed.
I can't hear this nonsense any more.
You seriously think any other good conservative candidate won't get that treatment? It has nothing to do with Palin's irrelevant, absurdly distorted "faults", and everything to do with agenda driven media propaganda.
This stuff they try to smear her with is total pettiness. Name me your favorite for 2012, and I'll promise you he has greater "faults" than she allegedly does... and believe me the MSM WILL exploit them mericlessly.
According to your argumentation we would by default have to put up with a token liberal RINO media darling.
If you really like Palin, then support her, and stop worrying about the MSM.
None are more deluded than those who think that their favorite candidate would be treated fairly.
Useless idiots.
I call the article “Snead’s Screed”.
Doesn’t Madam Pelosi’s trip to rome to meet the pope fall under the category of Thou shall not mix religion and politics the liberals are always complaining about...
Lats time I checked Pelosi claimed to be catholic and yet she flies to rome to meet the Pope on our taxes in the special house speakers jet she demanded....
Governor Sarah Palin doesn’t even have a government funded personal jet with which she can fly her children around like Pelosi does....
