How is Sarah Palin Paying for Road Trip? Hmmmmm?
ABC News ^ | 06.01.11 | Sheila Marikar

Posted on 06/01/2011 10:09:50 AM PDT by rface

"How am I paying for it? SarahPAC," she said, adding that she's traveling in "our own personal motor home that we've had in Alaska."

Palin didn't answer when asked how long she's owned the bus that's adorned with the Constitution and a larger-than-life version of her signature. When asked, twice, how much her "One Nation Tour" has cost four days into the trip, she got visibly irritated.

"Check SarahPAC.com," she said. "I don't know why in the world you would ask a question like that. I'm just thinking about America and our foundations and our freedoms and our opportunities. Why would you ask something ..."

ABC News pointed out that she often talks about the economy and how much money we're spending.

"What does our economy have to do with how much we're -- I'm not asking you to pay for a penny of this trip," she said.

Cue the national anthem: the conversation was cut short when a group of school children visiting the monument launched into "The Star Spangled Banner."

SaraPAC.com does not currently offer any information about how much money has been spent on the tour. It does, however, feature a big green "Donate" button, inviting visitors to help fund Palin's trip across the nation.

donate????? => Adverisements on sites like Drudgereport.com also encourage Palin fans to donate.

If her quote here is reported accurately

Okay, you tell me exactly what THAT probability happens to be.....without resorting to Slim or None.

JMHO, the next red hot "news" flash out of that bunch of media [*******]s could be a report on the "shocking, I tell you, shocking" number of bugs splattered on the windshield. And God have mercy on 'em if the Palins should happen to hit a bird or some other critter on the trip.

Put me as a no, because you are incorrect. I don’t want to argue it on a non-related thread, but just put me as a “No”.

Sheila Yasmin Marikar 2005 grad of Cornell.
Former Assistant to the Editor, office of Undergraduate Research.

Has a little blogsite with confirming photo of her drinking 65 MacAllen.

Now gossip and celebrity “journalist” for ABC New York. And she has issues, lots of them in the blog. The questions in this instant are under the instruction of the editor in charge of the coverage of ABC. Prior work does not evidence any noticeable ability of differential thought or independence.

Part of the Indian/American (India the country) diaspora of obama supporters which include lots of bombay bollywood reporterette types who do SO want to be westernized, and do SO NOT want to be a Hindu or even a Muslim. The lost of India. They are like self hating Jews in journalism/political circles— deeply confused.

I am wondering if the proper descriptor might better have been “incredulous” rather than iritated. That sounds more like Sarah. And I bet she was still smiling. Maybe the smart-a$$ reporter doessn’t know the difference.

Yes, that's the best they have, GWB went home on vacation! That was such a sin! They don't give a flying fart that Ozero wastes money on vacations all over the world.

But GWB wanting to go home is a crime! That's the mentality of the left, and that's why so many people want to see them in total meltdown, which is whats happening.

There is a reason that news programs and newspapers are going out of business. This reporter is just a prime example. American people have had enough, and this just makes it obvious why.

Can you say “Hawaii” Obama, Michelle goes to Spain? There is NO comparison. Bush owns/owned outright the Crawford ranchette. It is not even certain Obama owns his “house” in Chicago. Especially if you look it up on the tax records. You know, the one Rezcko owned?

Research first, please. One of the essential rules for true FR posters, and especially noobies. OK?

And the left doesn’t see the hypocrisy or the inequality of their behavior over it.

The Left helps us by telling us whom they FEAR. This is useful in so many ways.

Goebbels did the same thing with ANY issue he was directed to exploit.

National Socialism/Marxism demands there be no commentary... marching ever onward as the great One redistributes “stolen” capital and puts it in the hands of the “new” electorate of non-citizens and fellow travelers.

You signed up today to post these? You may not be getting started on the right foot here, n00b. Everything you've said so far has been thoroughly debunked long ago.

IndepThinkr to null and void

Yes, but...

Chu said this during the 2008 campaign (as reported on Dec. 12 in the Wall Street Journal) and (then candidate) Obama rejected the notion of raising gas taxes to accomplish Chu’s intent - to persuade Americans to use more fuel efficient cars and to stimulate alternative energy research.

Context, context, context.....
