lmfao... What? This is kind of stretching to make a point don't you think?

I didn't buy it for her. I'm not her personal shopper

Sorry I can only take responsiblity for the things I buy. I don't judge others for the things THEY buy. So not sure why what I buy should dictate what others buy. If you read what I said... I said I am a bargain shopper. not that I am HER personal bargain shopper or anyone else's or that I expect anyone else to shop the way I do lol.

$100 for a onesie and hat... I've seen more expensive for less.

but for me? No it's not a bargain. I like the 2 for $5 onesies or the outlet shopping :) but that's just ME. but I suppose I should hold everyone ELSE to the same shopping standards that I have lol How DARE they spend more than I do.

You all REALLY remind me of the little old French Canuck women at bingo on Friday night.

Pathetic when you lambaste a candidate for what they wear, and not one word on any issues.

UH OH... those darn French Canadians... they are trouble :)

No offense to any british women... but I think elderly french Canadian women can only be topped by elderly British women. My grandmother... love her to bits but the first thing she says when someone walks into a room is "Lovely to see you dear... You look like you are putting on weight" THANKS Grandma lol

Then you haven't been reading carefully LH! I did lambaste her for her position on issues. And this has nothing to do with what she wears.

Dern it all...there you go misunderstandin' womin folk agin!

Gosh darn, I have a closet full of designer clothes (Of course I paid for them...not my husband...not a party.) This is about...

HYPOCRISY. You know...saying one thing and doing another. You might say...her character...or lack of it!

LMFAO....

I'd comment but... I can't say that I look much better when I spend the week in my jammies lol

SEEEEEEEE... Maybe she was a charity case like "what not to wear" :) No one believed me when I said that she better not show up in her camo gear or sweat pants to campaign. Or that.

Although I want to know what's on her legs... are they pants or boots? they look warm :)

This entire thread (with the exception of the OP) is about nothing more than superficial crap that has nothing to do with whether GOv. Palin can do the job.

I stand by my comment. You really are a bunch of biddies at the bingo hall.

Thats traditional dress for a group of Alaskan Natives, probably donated to her from one of the remote villages.

I wouldn't care, but it wasn't her money. I can understand if she wanted to get a new wardrobe because she's getting a "new position".. you dress for the part when you change jobs. I get that. She just didn't spend her money for her new position. She spent other people's money.

yeah... it came from donations to the RNC... but I find it foolish to donate to any campaign anyway because I find the uses for that money to be useless...

So, the money that was spent from the donations for her outfits WAS foolish. You agree with that then, correct?

Quote:

and I just don't understand the logic that if you have the opportunity handed to you to shop at a world famous store and buy clothes that you haven't been able to purchase before then you MUST NOT be a REAL person.

So, if you have the opportunity to take advantage of people, you should? Is that what you're saying? That if you are handed money and said "Here, we know you should be paying for this, but hey, they gave us the money, so even though we know ETHICALLY it's wrong, what the hey, do it anyway!"

Quote:

I think this thread just proves exactly why they expect the candidates to dress to the nines... Image is everything so you BETTER look your VERY VERY best. YOu can say or do whatever you like but if someone doesn't like the way you look then you are on the chopping block :)

Again, you dress for the position you want to be in. Normally, however, people do that with their own funds. Not other people's money.

She wants to be in that position, maybe she should have spent her own money to look that part. I'm sure she can max out some credit cards, right?? ;)

I'm insulted you'd compare me to a French person. Or that I'd play bingo.

I'm not "lambasting" her for what she's wearing, but for how she obtained them.

(who uses the word "lambaste" these days? sounds like you're roasting a sheep! :p You sound like some old, jaded military man, LH.)

If it bothers you so much, simply don't read it any longer.
