What’s the Difference Between a Pit Bull and a Hockey Mom? About $150,000 in Clothes

November 9th, 2008 · 42 Comments

Even though she lost the election, Sarah Palin must have enjoyed her ride to the top of the world for 15 minutes. After all, it’s not every day a small town mayor gets to travel the world after looking at it from her state, appear on television as much or little as she wants and wear a slew of clothes worth more a golden plated igloo.

Now she may have to return those clothes after her own party sent lawyers to her home state, according to The Daily Mail.

A suit hasn’t been officially filed yet, but the presence of lawyers can’t be good. And they are Republican lawyers! They might as well have sent real live pit bulls that spit bullets.

Earlier reports claim she received $150,000 worth of clothing, but the latest reports show they are much higher than that and she didn’t actually return them. She reportedly claimed they are still at the dry cleaners in order to get the smell of shame out of them.

No suit has been filed and the Palin is still going through all of the luggage to determine which was bought by the party, so they can be donated to charity because if there’s one thing underprivileged Americans need right now, it’s a pair of shoes that are worth more than their foreclosed home.

    And….. between the $150,000 are the little tiny liberal ants, insects, and .. parasites with their eyes are being covered with “green” that they can’t think straight.. “There are no lawyers coming for Palin.” She’s clean. Get your facts straight.

    This topic is sickening. Sarah Palin deserved to look her best at all times. Due to the fact that she and her husband with five childen were unable to pay for clothing to represent herself as possible VP, she needed the assistance from the GOP. It is a Grand Ole Party, indeed, until media started picking at Sarah again. Has anyone ever questioned Joe Biden’s $2-$4,000 suites, that he kept? What about the extravagent suits that Obama showed in day after day, that we all KNOW HE DID NOT PUCHASE HIMSELF. For heavens sake, his bid for presidency was bought, and so where his wife and kids and his clothing. Why not pick on someone else. Leave Sarah alone. She does not deserve anymore of the slander. You’d better be praising her as an intelligent woman that believes with conviction that our country will be a better place with her on board. Look out, cause Sarah’s coming in 2012, and if you like her clothes now, just think how you’re going to feel about her Presidential outfits.

    You lost get over it and she will never win considering she is the reason you lost

    Tiny liberal ant? The article took the information from a UK article. Shouldn’t that mean it’s a bit more fact based and not some kind of ‘liberal propaganda’?

    So you know, she also made Alaska pay for her kids to travel with her (since it was ‘official business’) even to places they weren’t invited (or really allowed). She’s good at calling things official business to benefit her. That’s why she wasn’t in BIG trouble for shooting animals from a helicopter. She used the loophole by quoting a rule that says any of her “official business can be done from a helicopter”. Other than that, it was highly illegal.

    I have to add this. The dictionary definition of a liberal, since you think it’s such a bad thing.
    “of, favoring, or based upon the principles of a political philosophy based on belief in progress, the essential goodness of the human race, and the autonomy of the individual and standing for the protection of political and civil liberties”

    “Real live pit bulls that spit bullets”? Really? Let’s not perpetuate an ignorant breed myth if you’re trying to make an informed political statement.

  • 7 Ralph DeMattia // Dec 19, 2008 at 6:29 am

    Look at all these idiot WOMEN excusing what Palin did because she neededo “Look her best”, yet she couldn’t afford the kind of clothes WE bought for her, and now she’ll donate them to charity? Won’t THAT look great? Some bag lady with all her belongings in a shopping cart and wearing a $2,500.00 dress? I’m glad that wastefull bitch isn’t MY governor! What: she can’t go to Penney’s or Sears or The GAP for her clothes, expecially if we’re paying for them? Screw her!!

  • 8 its not yet over // Dec 29, 2008 at 4:18 am

    sorry..but im not an idiot woman…what she did is rediculous…and the reason the dimocrats didnt have to return theryre suits is because they actually WON the election…and will continue to present themselves as the leaders of america…sorry…but if she spent that much on clothing and is being such a baby about returning the american money…then i can only imagine how much money she could waste in 4 to 8 years…

  • 9 Corus // Jan 17, 2009 at 1:19 pm

    “This topic is sickening. Sarah Palin deserved to look her best at all times.”
    Oh please… She really did look her best in the eyes of the country when she spent that much money on clothing.
    “You’d better be praising her as an intelligent woman that believes with conviction that our country will be a better place with her on board. Look out, cause Sarah’s coming in 2012, and if you like her clothes now, just think how you’re going to feel about her Presidential outfits.”
    Intelligent woman, you say? An intelligent woman, indeed. Sarah Palin is an intelligent woman who didn’t even know Africa is a continent. Just by looking at her spending habits, we can already tell how good she is at managing her money. With the economy in this state, it would probably not recover for some time. Does America really need a president/vice president like this? Just what good will she do for the economy? In addition to that, she is too Americo-Centric. Her reputation outside of the country isn’t too great either. America isn’t exactly loved by most foreign countries. America already looks bad. By even allowing Sarah Palin to have the chance to be a vice president or president…you get the picture. In any case, I am not sexist. In fact, I am actually a girl. I approve of a female president (or any president) who I feel has the ability to save America and the economy. I do not feel that way about Sarah Palin, from what she has shown me. I definitely will not be voting for her if she runs for president in 2012 (I’ll be turning 18 that year), unless there’s a miracle. Anyway, Palin as president in 2012? You’ve been watching too many horror movies lately.

    sarah palin is a fuking sad excuse for a human being, shes as mature as my 6 yr nephew…honestly if she was in politics in my country she wouldn’t last long AT ALL!!

  • 11 sara // Feb 5, 2009 at 5:10 pm

    ell she pay it with OUR TAX MONEY. WHEN WE DON’T HAVE A LOT OF MONEY.

    PS: she get eaten alive if she runs.
    she wouldn’t win.

  • 12 Tracy // Feb 8, 2009 at 12:27 am

    LOL…..I thought this website was supposed to be about dumb facts and stupid things. All in fun, not to be taken so seriously.

    But, of course, I will add my 2 cents.

    Sarah Palin spent our tax dollars on clothes??? That would piss me off too. Why does someone have to look “good” in $2,000 suits when you can look just as good in a $100 suit from Ross or Dress Barn? Especially since they only wear it once, right? I think she would have been better off showing some modesty in her clothing costs in these economic times. In fact, all the candidates should have done that, not just Palin.

    It cracks me up that as a nation we place so much emphasis on how a person looks than what the person can do. How many people out there could be great leaders if it weren’t for the budget of clothing, hair and shoes? We all need a reality check and this country needs an enema.

  • 13 Tracy // Feb 8, 2009 at 12:30 am

    Oh and now we’re going to spend MORE tax dollars on a lawsuit about $150,000 in clothing? It will cost at least 5 times that much just for the law suit. They should just drop it and cut there losses now!

  • 14 brittany // Feb 20, 2009 at 6:17 pm

    Leave poor Palin alone! The poor women has been through enough, and it’s sickening that just b/c she’s easy to pick on, everyone does. She’s never personally done anything to you, so stop picking out all of her flaws….

  • 15 KC // Feb 21, 2009 at 5:30 pm

    hahahaha sarah a moron an if she ever does win ill move to iraq i hope she does get sued. u dnt need to stand up in front of poor america with expensive clothes to prove ur gunna do better id rather see them up in ripped up jeans an a t shirt

  • 16 korthanx // May 20, 2009 at 11:55 am

    The part of these comments that makes me smile is that just about all the ones I see bashing Palin are so full of mispelled words they must have been typed by 5-year olds.

  • 17 Ty. // Jul 31, 2009 at 5:34 pm

    Misspelled* haha just to fool with you :]. I’m a girl and personally I think Sarah Palin is an idiot. I’m glad she resigned, and glad she can’t do things like THAT again.

  • 18 hilary // Aug 16, 2009 at 3:30 am

    sarah palin is a fucking idiot. personally, i think mcain had it in the bag until he chose her as his VP. im a democrat and i was considering voting for him before that. fuck palin!! i want hilary clinton in office.
    but thats a whole different tirade. sarah palin is the scum of this earth. and if ANY woman thinks otherwise, they are idiots as well. she wants to reverse roe vs. wade. even though she wasnt even aware of what the case was called at the time. she has no grasp on basic geography. and she winks like a god damn cheer leader every chance she gets.
    conservatives are a dying species, but her specific type is dying out the fastest. she’s closed minded and retarded, and look what that did to her daughters!
    if this country is ever in the hands of that woman, i will get the fuck out.

  • 19 Heather // Sep 20, 2009 at 7:41 pm

    Whats the point of spending tax dollars of an economically challenged country to turn around and give said clothes to charity?

    Seriously, Palin should’ve shopped cheaper if shes going to waste my money like that. I hope she never becomes president, she’ll run us into the ground.

  • 21 marine4now // Dec 16, 2009 at 6:05 pm

    I’ve got an idea. Why don’t we make all presidential and vice presidential candidates wear uniforms. I mean if you think about it they are potential commanders in chief and vice commander and chief of our military and other uniformed services ie Coast Guard, FBI, Secret Service, ect. I mean heck most of the uniformed services they will control have business suit like uniforms. It would cut down on cost because they would only be issued 4 sets and then if they won receive an annual bonus to their paycheck that would enable them to buy 2 more uniforms. All other clothes would be paid for out of their regular pay check. Then we wouldn’t have these problems.

  • 22 Tianna // Mar 6, 2010 at 12:14 am

    I totally agree with Marine. That would be a lot better.

    Personally, it wasn’t until she started going after the animals that I started to hate her. I can’t understand politics, but stating that wolves should be put down because they do as instinct dictates them to is just a very bad negative mark on her card for me.

    I don’t know about you, but I’d rather have a president/vice president who knows what’s best for America than one who just looks like a blown-up Barbie doll.

    Im not here to defend or argue palin’s issues. i’d just thought that before y’all get angry at her for how much she spent on clothes, everyone should stop for a second and google how much mrs.obama spends, not only on her clothes, but her assistants as well. she has more than any first lady in history, ever. no one is right in this situation. no one should have a wardrobe that costs that much.

  • 42 Ain // Jul 6, 2011 at 5:14 pm

    Spending that much is rather ridiculous. Unfortunately, appearances are a huge deal in political circles.

    Showing up to a function in a clothing bought from J.C. Penney, no matter how stylish, would give a bad impression.

    This, btw, makes no sense to me. I’ve never understood why the cost and designer of clothing can be so damned important. While it’s a good idea to dress well to present a good image and inspire confidence in others, the cost shouldn’t be that friggin’ important!!
