Sexy Sarah Uses PAC $$$$ To Go Rogue!
Not to anyone's surprise, Sarah Palin is raising eyebrows again! The failed vice presidential candidate used $$$$ from her political action committee to buy thousands of copies of her own book, Going Rogue, and mail them to her donors.
clASSy!!!
"Due to supporters' demand for the national best-seller Going Rogue, Sarah's PAC purchased books and sent free, signed copies to those who donated $100 or more between November 16 and November 25 at noon," said Palin's spokeswoman Meghan Stapleton. "The fundraising tool was wildly successful."
$63,000 of her political fund was spent on her own books and another $8,000 was used to purchase colorful bookmarks that probably feature her self righteous face. Her committee also paid her publisher, Harper Collins, $20,000 to send a personal photographer and another aide along for the book tour.
Palin is not the first d-bag to use donated money to purchase their own product. The Federal Election Commission put up a fight when Joseph Lieberman, the standup gentleman who single-handedly halted the healthcare debate, gave away copies of his memoir, In Praise of Public Life, without taking the royalties off the books his campaign purchased.
So, these two "politicians" have used $$$$$$ that honest people have donated and put it back in their own pockets!
Are U surprised?!

Rip Torn Ordered To Rehab!!
Madonna & Jesus Are No More?
HA! I don't know why ANYONE likes her! Shes a moron.
Not surprised. They are both self-righteous, selfish idiots.
And lets not forget before that she quit… during her first term….pretty lame if you ask me.
Perez…..stick with gossip. Leave politics to those who are smarter.
Is it me or a post about the song "we are the world" just disappeared?
Shameful
What strikes me as weird about this is the proposition 'give me $100.00 and I will give you a free book.' NOT that I am one to defend her but, seems there is nothing illegal with this scheme.
lol I saw an ad for her book on tv and it was marked down to $4.99. Pretty soon it'll be at the dollar store
Harper Collins is owned by Rupert Murdoch just like Faux News she was told to rob her supporters, Rupert paid her 5 million to have someone right the crap.. He will get his money back one way or another….
She a quiter a grifter and an asshole…
This crazy woman is just a piece of trash
Failed vice president? Bullshit! Try failed GOVERNOR, mother and failed Human being!
Say what you will about Obama but could you IMAGINE this BIMBO in the whitehouse? Holy shit!
…and that fuck Lieberman is the biggest douche hypocrite on the planet.
All he gives a shit about is taking corporation $$$ for HIMSELF which is exactly why he has turned his back on the Democratic party. I'm not sayin there aren't good reasons out there to oppose the Democrats but that ain't one of them. He's a traitor, a liar and a phoney and a should be ashamed of himself. Now he's back "in bed" with Caribou Barbie again?! UGH!!!
Re: suzyq131 – IT's at the Christmas Tree Shop for $2.99! No Shit! LOL
What is your point moron?
It's also how her book stayed on the list. Her own pac bought thousands of copies to try to push it up the rankings.
stop calling her sexy sarah. it demeaning her gender, stupid sarah works.
Murdoch owns HP so he is getting some coin out of this too. Bible Spice does it, it is ok because she is a republican. Oh and Liebertoad is not the one that held up HCR. As much as I despise the guy, credit has to go to Ben Nelson, Landrieu and Presdient Snowe. Stick to Hollywood gossip fat boy, politics should be left to the people that pay attention.
Lieberman is a mosad agent look into the AIPAC Controversies all of them, they all lead to Lieberman then they go away….
even in a weird pose the fucking dumb ass looks beautiful!!! so annoying!!
Hey she's a pioneer (as the crazies would say) lol. she is just full of sh1t like the rest of the politicians. I'm not surprise because everything she does is "playing politics"!!! She quit in the presidential race with McCain, she quit in the gov position in Alaska, she is currently in trouble with the law in the firing of a law enforce official because she was mad at him, and rumors of an affair. LOL she is a real pioneer!!!
Much ado about nothing, Mario.
The perfect job for Obama….Obama should run for King of Haiti. That's what he's suited for. Everything he touches turns to shit. Everything in Haiti is crap, so he wouldn't have to do much. He could play golf in The Domincan Republic and steal all the money from Americans….oh wait, nevermind, he's already doing that!
lol perez wont ever use my comment because i say hes worthless everytime
Re: luvstotango –
Haiti doesnt have a King it has a President its a Parliamentary republic.
*
I think you should run TO SCHOOL or visit a libary and read some books because your stupid sob!
*
Re: Aussieone – I was being fascious, Aussieone. A little slow are you? I know there is no King of Haiti. Obama and our insane congress have decided they will rule us like he is a King of America. Keep up!
Could she be a bigger dumbass!!!
Wonder if she thing the new republican senator in Mass did porn like levi.
She just gives women in general a very bad name.
Re: Aussieone – Thank you!!!
ALL politicians take and spend money that does not belong to them.. nothing new.. Republicans and Democrats.. you guys are in the same shit boat.. but it is amusing to see you guys bash each other and defend something that is so corrupt.. get your heads out of your asses WE ARE AMERICANS.. let's quit pointing fingers and just stand up for what's right and wrong !!
WOW ARE YOU A DOLT! What a stupid stupid person you are.
A PAC is a political action committee. It is NOT donated to by regular people. First off dumbass, its a group NOT run by the politician. Second, its mostly funded by special interests.
You buddy the Clintons have the largest PAC in history to fund his defense against being impeached for lying to congress under oath. BUT GOD FORBID you rail against Mr Dont Ask Dont Tell!
Stick to gossip. You just make a fool out of yourself otherwise.
She sold millions of these book…MILLIONS. This was a thank you to her supporters…If you were in politics, youd do the same thing, but for BJs
Why is anyone suprised that she is like so many other politicians who are in it for themselves. Oh wait I'm sure some still believe she quite her job to better help serve the citizens of Alaska. Blind faith is sad and pathetic.
Re: luvstotango –
Did you mean facetious ? i.e. : joking or jesting often inappropriately or meant to be humorous or funny : not serious Like I said Run to school.. you spelt it wrong and your post doesnt fit the discription.
*
Obama is cleaning up the mess republicans have left the world. republicans sent America bankrupt and caused the financial melt down.
*
No country can wage war without paying for it and at the same time give everyone tax cuts…
*
Republicans did and you borrowed the money from china to pay for it all…
*
China now has huge foriegn currency reserves that equal the hole in the global economy.. I THINK ITS YOU THAT NEEDS TO KEEP UP!
Re: slite –
*
I think you miss the point Palins PAC is intened to get Conservatives elected to office people donating oi that cause where told they'd recieve
*
"a free book if they donated over a hundred dollars"
*
Its a lie because the book isnt free she is using your money to buy it. She's not givin it to you… your buying it and your really giving less to the cause that the PAC is ment to support.
*
Re: Aussieone – you sound like Olberman
Re: buck –
Hmm I guess Olberman's ok he says some smart things he needs to get tougher on Obama though..
Sorry about the type…to much gin this morning.
So, if Obama is cleaning up the mess republicans have left the world, can you explain what happened in New Jersey and Massachusetts electing Republicans, when there's 4X as many Democrats?
Re: luvstotango – Americans have no money left. Bush saw to THAT!
Shut up. You just sound dopey.
Looks like there’s trouble for yet another Democrat. Blanche Lincoln. A devastating PPP poll has been released, showing her losing in a landslide to Rep. John Boozman. What makes this all the worse for Sen. Lincoln is that Boozman hasn’t even officially announced his campaign.
Re: luvstotango –
*
What happened Massachusetts was a warning shot to dems by dems The democratic senate is weak and patheitic. Scott Brown ran as a Independent not a a member of the GOP.. Not one piece of his campaign material had any Repub/GOP info on it. He also said he is pro choice believes gay marraige is a state issuse he'd prefer civil unions not a republican platform sounding guy is he.
*
But i guess you only watch faux news and think it was about health care even though Massachusetts already has everyone covered ? Healthcare had nothing to do with it.
IN TODAY'S NEWS: Today in Illinois, voters go to the polls, poised to send another stinging message to their adopted son, Hussein.
*
Eager to deliver a thundering rebuke to the corrupt Democratic machine from which Obama emerged in Chicago, voters are very close to booting Gov. Pat Quinn in his own party's primary.
*
Even more ominous for Obama today is that voters will choose which Republican and which Democrat will face off in the general election to fill Obama's old Senate seat.
*
Obama, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE keep talking about Obamacare and it's George Bush's fault…you lose about 20,000 votes everytime you open your mouth.
If you're going to talk about "classy" politicians, you need to mention the super classy John Edwards, who spent donated money to care for his out-of-wedlock baby and baby mama. What a great guy!!!
Mario you schould of thought of that!! OOps your's bombed, she sold plenty!!!
P.S. You know so little about entertainment, why in the world would you em bare ass yourself w/ politics that you know squat about!!! Stick to something that you can at least pretent you know something, DOUCH!!
Best seller my ass.
.
THE SHEBITCH IS AS PHONEY AS THEY COME……

fuck your stupid ! Was there a point to that post ? I mean other then making yourself look like an asshole ?
Only in amarica a piece of garbage can make millions by been a looser as a mother, wife, govenor, vp runner-up, never wrote that silly book. etc etc etc
Re: luvstotango – You've just gone from DOPEY to WACKY! Are you actually quoting CARRIE WHITE"S MOTHER????
NO I am not. So initially if you donated you were really buying a book for 100bucks ! BS LOL!
AS IF Barack Obama doesn't waste everyones money-that's a larger topic to write about Perez!!! He said he would "create many new jobs", and barely anyone can get one right now! He's a fakeass idiot and way worse than Sarah Palin.
P.S. Rember JFK's book, he suposidedly wrote, "Profiles In Courage" and old Joe Kennedy bought them all up and ware housed them!!! LOL

Hat tip to you supersongbird you called it right. lol
Not surprising, they're both politicians - what is interesting is that politicians know how not to spend their own $$$ but they are not so devious when they are managing our money or should I say spending our money…
Not consciencely burdened by the appearance of the possibly ethically if not legally questionable deal, I'm sure that in her mind, she sees it as a win/win.
Re: Aussieone – I believe you meant *description and *foreign. I mean, not to be rude, but it's a pet peeve of mine that others attempt to disparage people for not being able to spell words such as facetious and in the process misspell words themselves.
Although I love the irony, it just makes you look unintelligent my friend.
No, I'm not surprised. And no one should be. Politicians should never, ever be trusted, and citizens should always be skeptical about their actions, no matter what party they belong to. Why? Because when we elect politicians to office, we're giving them political power; political power can and will corrupt the majority of all politicians. We must always be skeptical so that politicians feel the pressure– if we're watching, which rarely happens, they will behave so that they stand a chance at re-election.
I love how ANY political posting has anti-and-pro Obama discussions in the comments. When discussing these topics, everyone's like "OMG liberals are retarded" and "OMG retarded republican hicks!" Jeeeez people. Way to be intelligent and focus on labels, that totally makes me value your opinion. Not. How about we stop blaming political parties and start thinking for ourselves? Oh, right, that takes work… and intelligence, which is of short supply here.
Re: JayRock –
*
I saw it after I hit post… and in all honesty I hate people who point out spelling errors too, but not as much as i hate people who have nothing of substance to add to a conversation, who then feign their intention which clearly was to be rude.
*
Further to that the fact that they lack an understanding of how and for what to use the word irony and fail to understand how and for whom to use the word friend.
*
People like that look far more unintelligent but more to the point are just plain trivial.
*
Re: Aussieone – Oh my, I have hurt your feelings, but someone was bound to tell you that you shouldn't reply to people in a feeble attempt to make yourself feel better. Especially if you make mistakes on your own writing capabilities.
It's called a "dose of your own medicine."
And yes, I do know how to use the word friend, you lack understanding of people being facetious, as you have shown in previous posts.
Now you may reply to me and try to play the immature game you have played with previous posters, but I must go now and do something more important with my life besides have a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.
Gross white trash ,immoral corrupt and hypocritical.
Re: Aussieone – I support Israel and I hate Lieberman.
'Re: luvstotango – Well it certainly is republican's and bush's fault that we were in a deep reccession when Obama came to the rescue to pretend otherwise just makes you sound more like part of the tea bagger white trash spin doctors that haven't accepted a wipeout at the ballot box. Tough shit. I'm glad that in the short time that Obama has been in power the stock market has gone up,real estate values have gone up and the world coming to an end under Bush's failed terms is now rebounding with all signs of economy improving. Sounds good to me,spinning Bush's reccession and not giving Obama credit in an already improving climate makes you sound like the dumb red state redneck white trash scumbag that you are.
Re: JayRock – Something tells me that you just don't like what she is saying and you stuck your rightwing big nose in it to shut her up.
Not surprised!!
Ms. Sarah Palin - honest - NOT!!
I cant stand her
Re: knowitall – Well clearly, you're not a know it all, contrary to your name.
First, I actually agreed with everything she/he said, I did not, however, agree that she/he attempted to sound intelligent and in the process sounded ignorant.
Second, I am offended! I am definately not a right wing in any way, shape or form. Quite the opposite actually.
And third, I don't have a big nose.
I appreciate all your assumptions though! :]
Re: JayRock –
Suck my balls!
Re: Aussieone – Lmao. That made my day!
Re: JayRock –
*
I think more like your year or your life….
*
You wrote "I actually agreed with everything she/he said" post 60
*
Im glade we agree: that you look far more unintelligent and trivial post 52:
"People like that look far more unintelligent but more to the point are just plain trivial."
Re: Aussieone – Haha, it's *glad sweetheart.
Come on, basics in spelling.
And no, I don't believe we think alike. My age, my life and my maturity prevent me from saying phrases such as "suck my balls" (post 61) as a response to someone who has won an argument.
I think it's cute that you attempt to say that I would agree with that statement. :]
Re: JayRock –
*
"Glade" was intentional just to prove a point.. Hook line and sinker.
*
So i guess we have to add the word "everything" to the list of those you lack an understanding of how and for what to use, along with the word irony and friend.
*
Won an argument I fail to see where that happened…
*
I never said "we think alike" I have no idea what your on about… Maybe its that age thing working against you.
*
What in the world makes you think I care about your life ? I dont thats kinda the point of "Suck my balls"… Your "maturity" or lack there of is evident in your posts…
*
As is the fact your a sad lonley little man begging for any attention.
*
Im sure you've been told this before but I dont think its sunk in so once more for good measure. desperation is ugly!
Re: Aussieone – Oh my, I must be communicating with a child.
Yes, I'm so sure you spelt glad wrong to prove a point, keep telling yourself that.
No, I don't believe I said you cared about my life. Let me check. Nope. Never said that.
I think it is humorous for someone such as yourself to attempt to tell ME that I lack maturity. I realized long ago that I was communicating with a immature child, I just can't resist laughing at your continued posts. Lol.
Oh! And another assumption that is completely off. I am not a "lonely little man." I'm more of a "friendly average woman."
You're so right! Desperation is ugly! So neither of us are looking very pretty, cause honey you're on the same level as me!
Re: JayRock –
*
Thats your reply ? Really ? Thats it ? The person who asserts that their age, life and maturity prevents them from saying phrases such as "suck my balls" has resorted to name calling ?… Calling me a child and an immature child.
*
Maturity… Yes clearly!
*
I have no need to tell myself anything you can believe what you wish.. The point was for my amusement.
*
I think you must be on medication.
*
You wrote: "No, I don't believe I said you cared about my life." I never said that was what you said….
*
Through your post history you have a need to tell everyone who you are.. I dont care! That is what the desperation is ugly message was all about.
*
We share no same level… I dont start arguments with people I agree with.
*
Lonely little man or lonely little woman it makes no difference the diagnosis
to me seems to befit what you project through your posts.
