Independent, the clothes will be donated..the worth of which will be more than the $3000 in charitable giving that Biden has done in the last 10 years.

As for the children’s education, it has been controversial in Alaska that Alaskans were being billed for her children’s trips and tutoring. I have no problem with the families travelling with their parents if this means that they’ll be together and believe that Obama’s children travel with their parents as well. While I couldn’t find information on current tutoring, I’m betting that it’s no different than when whe was in Alaska.

As for blaming Palin for her future son-in-law dropping out of school..you’re reaching here.

Check out the DC Download blog on Republicans being happier than Democrats…should be a fun debate today!

3 out of 4 high school dropouts prefer Sarah Palin.

If Your Scared, Say Your Scared!!!!!!!!
Like McCain said in STL, it’s between a work horse and a show horse!
Welcome to STL Sarah, we love ya!!

I think it’s interesting that so many people have jumped to Sarah Palin’s defense in an article about the deposition she has to give for her ethics investigation. Say what you will about Barack Obama, he’s only being tried in the court of public opinion, not anywhere else.

Immi Esq,

Where are you getting your information from? SCOTUS has never opined such.
If it was via an Act of Congress, you might want to reread the Constitution. Congress has the authority to create uniform rule for naturalization (Article 1, Section 8), not to redefine the Constitution. As such, we are left with the word naturalization; which is the process of making an alien a citizen. One who has become a citizen by Act of Congress could hardly be called natural-born.

Logicprevails - the Republican party said the cloths at the Convention would be donated to charity nothing about the family cloths or about those used on the campaign trail. These are cloths the Republican party bought, so not a donation from the Palin’s. Also, these are hsir styles bought by the Republican party not the Palin family. Don’t you have a problem with them not wearing their own cloths like the other candidates?

On education - the Obama children have stayed in school during this time and not been on the campaign trail. Including the Michelle Obama stayed in Chicago during the first week of their school to help get them started. I do think it is important to understand how a family educates their children is important. I do wonder about Palin’s oldest daughter and if she is in school. I would have concerns about my future son-in-law if he dropped out of high school as to how he would provide for my grandchild. Don’t you?

Why aren’t we talking about the real story of the day - what are the Palins going to say to the investigator. Why did McCain select a Vice President who started under investigation for breaking ethical laws? The investigation was approved by a Republican majority committee in Alaska not a Democrate majority state.

Here’s a listing of some of the invective from newspaper columnists, mainstream bloggers, television/magazine pundits and late-night/mainstream comedians towards Sarah Palin within the last two months - put in alphabetical order:

airhead, b–ch, Caribou Barbie, Christian Stepford Wife, disgrace to women, dangerous, disabled, dysfunctional, extremist, fanatic, fatal cancer, F— y– (Jon Stewart), gang-rape, ‘her pretense she’s a woman,’ hardcore pornographic centerfold spread, idiot, ignorant, Jesus Freak, kook, liar, ‘man with a v—-a, merciless predator, McCain’s Mean Girl, national joke, opportunist, pig, pretty little gaffe machine, porn actress look, queasy, Republican blow-up doll, reactionary, rube, sputtering ramshackle motorbike repaired in the backyard that is the Sarah Palin candidacy, time bomb, terrible woman from Alaska, trailer trash, Uncle Woman, VILF, whore, xenophobic, yokel & zealot.

Remember, many of these are folks who decry what they call ‘hate-speech’ and make the claim that they are among the most ‘tolerant’ of all of us.

Sad to say, I’ve come to the conclusion that Governor Palin is BETTER than the office for which she’s been ask to serve. We don’t deserve her.

The sheer madness and bile of the media - in ALL of its forms - over the last two months has been the WORST I’ve EVER seen in my 47 years of life.

I’m going to be cancelling my subscription to the Post-Dispatch soon because they’re as guilty as ANYONE with regards to this national media shame…

Sheep…so many sheep. Keep your heads in the sand. Economics are not like a microwave…you can’t push in a change and expect immediate results. We are where we are not because of war, however, it would be stupid not to consider its effects now, but because of liberal ideas in the 90s. Everyone deserves a house…everyone is a winner. Well, we can all see what that has done for our wonderful economy. I can’t wait to stand next to slick willy Clinton, Barney Frank, and Chris Dodd in the soup line. Stop blaming parties and start blaming people.

For those of you that think BO has been properly vetted…? WOW, are you really serious? We, the public, know nothing of who he is, or was. Stupid people are dangerous people and are usually the ones that see everyone else’s faults but their own. Just look at this conversation. You actually have people here that believe R and D care about their well-being. You know what they care about…getting re-elected, getting their pension, getting that “silver spoon.” I find it comical that the things voters should care about are completly tossed aside for issues that should be covered in the National Inquirer…right next to the latest alien abduction.

Wake up America…our country is in dire need of true leadership and we are talking about clothes. Media…do you job and tell the story straight from both sides of the isle so that we can truely make informed decisions because what you have been doing is the biggest joke in history, but we are all going to pay the price for it.
