Its not the $150,000 wardrobe, I can actually defend that. . .its the FUCKING HYPOCRISY

[wndycty]

Believe it or not I have absolutely no problem with the GOP spending $150,000 on Palin's wardrobe. Running for president or vice-president is about image and lets be honest one of the reasons Palin was selected was because she is an attractive woman (she is absolutely ugly human being but I do find her to be attractive).

A simple and obvious attack is to criticize the sheer size of her wardrobe budget but to me that is weak because it invites folks to question how much the Obama's spend, how much Bill Clinton and John Edwards spent on haircuts and what Hillary's wardrobe budget was.

To me the true attack point is the hypocrisy of it all. How the hell do you call Obama an elitist when we know what we know about Palin's wardrobe expenditures? How the hell do you tell me Obama, a man who owns one home, is out of touch when we still are disputing how many homes McCain has? Etc.

I'm not going to ask folks to think that $150,000 for 3 months worth of clothes is reasonable, however the size of the budget is secondary to the hypocrisy.

Also, as far a Mika questioning how much Obama spends on suits I think its important to point out that Obama acknowledges he is doing well financially and not trying to paint himself as some type of "Joe the plumber." He may spend a pretty penny on his suits but he is not trying to act like he doesn't.
