i think they need to lay down the bottle of mouthwash (used to get drunk because it is cheap) and find a mission who will help them get off of and stay off of the streets...

... I assume you are being sarcastic... Being a Republican, you believe that the poor OUGHT to be homeless.

i know!! maybe obama could donate some of his millions to clothe the poor....but instead he is building a grand event in chicago...hey maybe you could answer this for me....since the democrats know where all the homeless are, since they will be driving them to vote, and since they want to spread the wealth....does this mean there will be no more homeless under an obama administration and a democrat controlled congress?

But looking good is surely part of the campaign. When Nancy Reagan was first lady, designers were lining up to loan her clothes, most of which she kept. But it was a good deal for the designers nonetheless. They got a lot of publicity for their designs.

I don't care what she spends on her clothes with her own money, its the fact that she used campaign money that bothers me.  People donated money to McCain/Palin thinking the money would be spent on advertisements, yard signs, etc., not Neiman Marcus.  Also, its strange for her to be claiming to be a typical "hockey mom" while wearing such hugely expensive clothes.

Which is still .0002 % of Palin's budget. The empress is wearing no clothes.

Nobody should feel guilty for spending money that they have. It's not their fault that people are poor and in debt. We are all responsible for our financial success.

i can't believe this is an issue after the millions obama has wasted....he wants to spread the wealth maybe he should have used some of those millions to better some poorer person...

That's right. It will seem like an even larger amount of money if the McCain/Palin team doesn't even win. Then it will be 150 thousand right out the window. I wonder how much of a difference Sarah Palin's clothes and make-up make on their impression to voters.

Nancy Reagan had similar expenditure on clothes. Bush's suits could each pay my wages for a year.
