Sexy Sarah and Elizabitch Speak On Palin's Wardrobe Scandal! Charge Sexism
Filed under: Politik > Elizabitch Hasselbeck > Sarah Palin
Sarah Palin has been reluctant to discuss the $150,000 spent on her wardrobe by the McCain campaign, after the news broke last week.
But, leave it up to Elisabeth Hasselbeck to talk about it!
When will Elizabitch learn that idiots shouldn't speak out in public?
Sunday, at a rally in the Silver Spurs Arena in Kissimee, Florida, the possible soon-to-be former View host introduced Palin.
And, in her introduction, she took it upon herself to discuss things the Republican party has decided to stay quiet about.
Hasselbeck said, "Instead of the issues, they are focused, fixated, on her wardrobe. Now, with everything going on in the world it seems a bit odd. But let me tell you, this is deliberately sexist."
Sorry, how is this sexist?????
If Michelle Obama spent over $100k, it would make national news.
Would that be racist????
But, more importantly, if John McCain or Barack Obama spent $150,000 on suits and ties etc, you better believe it would cause headlines too!
It's not sexist, Bitchy Boo. It's about WASTING campaign donations on unnecessary things.
But Hasselbeck's comments were great, because it allowed Palin to veer off the script and comment herself!
Palin said, "This whole thing with the wardrobe, you know I have tried to just ignore it because it is so ridiculous, but I am glad now that Elisabeth brought it up, cause it gives me an opportunity without the filter of the media to get to tell you the whole clothes thing."
Soooooo….????
She sais, "Those clothes, they are not my property. Just like the lighting and the staging and everything else that the RNC purchased, I'm not taking them with me. I am back to wearing my own clothes from my favorite consignment shop in Anchorage, Alaska."
And then said, "You'd think — not that I would even have to address the issue because, as Elisabeth is suggesting, the double standard here it's — gosh, we don't even want to waste our time."
Gosh, we Loves it!
So do U think it's ridiculous and sexist that Palin is being called out for spending $150,000 on clothes?????

Nope. What bothers me more is the expenditures for the fake Greek columns, the phony presidential seal, etc.

I could have gone to law school, but took a pass because the profession disgusts me. The ideals elaborated on by Obama in his 2001 radio interview are anathema to conservatives. You have no clue what you're talking about.

perez.. whoever writes your blog for you now SUCKS AT IT. not funny, not interesting, stupid lame comments like "loves it" and "what do U think?"
so fucking ghey.
Re: holeigh_annie – There are a lot of things that celebrities do that I would want someone doing that is in charge of running our country including spending that much money on a wardrobe that she admittedly is not going to wear again. Do I care of Paris Hilton spends $150,000 on one purse? NO. Do I care if Madonna and A-Rod had an extra-marital affair? NO. Do I care that Jamie-Lynn Spears had a child when she was 16 and unmarried? NO. But none of those people I just listed are running to be my vice president. If they were then I might have a different view on the things I just mentioned about them. Bottom line is……Polticians are supposed to serve as leaders of our country so they should know first and foremost they have to be careful about the careless decisions they make that might bring them negative publicity. Hollywood doesnt necessarily have to live by that rule…for them all publicity is good publicity.
So she is saying she was wearing $150,000 worth of stuff at the RNC. Yeah right! I know that bitch wore some of those clothes after that. The thing that gets me is that they are trying to cover up things. All with the "giving it to charity" bit and the "most of the stuff wasn't worn"! Why would they buy $150,000 worth of things if it wasn't going to be worn. At best if she needed a great outfit for the RNC , all she needed was maybe 3-4 looks to choose from. Suits at NM and Saks run about 500-800 bucks each.
No, it's moneyist! Don't hate on the 'pubs because they're all richie rich and shiz! It's not their fault that YOU'RE POOR. Shame on you all - YOU'RE ANTI-AMERICAN! You should be happy for their embezzlements - er, I mean, success. Uh, yeah!
SHUT UP ALREADY!!!!!!! dayum! We understand you wanna lick Obama's ass, ok Perez?! Why don't you start posting the negative things on Obama that I hear EVERY SINGLE DAY you biased hypocrite! I come to this site to see CELEBRITY gossip and all I end up seeing are these biased posts on who you want to win the election. Shut the hell up and do what got your started and stop using your 15 minutes as a way to try to get people to change their minds on who they want to vote for!
#1 For all you BITCHES out there who keep telling PEREZ to shut up :
Are you really that stupid and ignorant PEREZ can say and write all he wants ,thats why its called PEREZ HILTON.com so you basically have to sit there and suck on it….or go to a different site!!!!!!
Supporters of Palin say she’s had it with the campaign staff.
“She’s lost confidence in most of the people on the [campaign] plane,” a Palin insider told Politico. He says she would like to further ignore staff advice and do things her own way.
But CNN reports campaign aides say she’s a selfish renegade.
“She is a diva. She takes no advice from anyone,” said this McCain adviser. “She does not have any relationships of trust with any of us, her family, or anyone else.”
Re: Linda9801 – EXACTLY!!! I'm so glad I'm not the only one that sees that.
Re: Republican and Proud – If you are Republican and Proud then clearly you are the idiot. Please!
.
MCCAIN MUCH MUCH MORE OF THE SAME!
Re: Pinkyyy – YOU ARE A TYPICAL REPUBLICAN! A LIEING SACK OF SHIT WITH NO ORIGINAL IDEAS! FUCKTARD IS LETTY'S WORD IDIOT! YOU STOLE IT FROM HER JUST LIKE MCCAIN STEALS IDEAS FROM OBAMA! IF HE KEEPS CRAWLING UP OBAMAS ASS, YOU'LL HAVE TO CALL HIM A DEMOCRAT! FUCKTARD!
Hate them both.
Re: cmd08 – I soooo agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Perez please stay out of politics you fag!!
Not Sexist at all - Sarah is the only one who has spent this amount of money on clothes, Michelle Obama did not and the men buy their own suits. Sarah and Elisabitch are like dumb and dumber. THE BEST - they are going to donate the clothes to charity, does anyone on here know a homeless person that needs a $5,000 suit?
Re: sweetpiece – HAHAHAHAHAHA DOES SHE HAVE A PATENT ON THE WORD??? WTF? IDIOT!
Re: HATE_PEREZ – ok for all of you people that hate Perez and keep calling him that god awful name (fag)….why dont you do yourself and all of the rest of us a favor? Stay off of PerezHilton.com! I dont like Sarah Palin so you wouldnt see me logging onto her personal blog and reading everything she writes…if you dont like what Perez has to say and you dont agree with his views or his lifestyle then dont support him because that is exactly what you are doing everytime you log onto this website. I can say with upmost certainty that he could care less what you think of him personally and the fact that you get all up in arms about the things he posts on HIS website most likely amuses him and you can bet he is laughing all the way to the bank….in fact I will even venture to say that part of the money he makes from this website went to the funds he donated to towards the cause of gay rights and especially their right to be married….so that means in a way you have donated to that cause also. At least you are doing something positive by visiting this website then
DON'T BLAME ME. I VOTED FOR MCCAIN.
Re: Fendi Larue –
The only reason Obama won the Senate seat is because his Republican opponent had to back down because of a scandal with his wife. His opponent was replaced by ALAN KEYES, a right wing nutjob no one would ever vote for. So basically it was right time right place. People in illinois were pissed. Obama just slipped right in, not on his merit, but on luck.
No. Because if Obama came out wearing 150k of Armani suits from campaign donations, you KNOW that the Repubs would have been all over it calling him a pompus wasteful terrorist. I think this is fucking ridiculous. Especially with the almost $23k they spent on her fucking MAKEUP. Jesus. To prove us wrong I'd LOVE to see "sexy Sarah" come out for her next public speech wearing nothing a suit and make up from the Salvation Army. She probably wouldn't even have the nerve to show her face!
Went a little too far with the whole consignment shop thing… we dont want to think your slumming it either!
Again…democrats picking on republicans like playground bullies. Palin is on national television, If she didn't dress herself up like that she would have been sabotaged as well…it's a double edged sword.
How about the face that Michelle Obama (you know, the lady who is proud to be an American for the first time in her adult life…Miss Patriotic herself) is spending close to $450 for a LUNCH for TWO at the Waldorf -Astoria on the 15th of October…give me a BREAK…that's not a problem, but dressing appropriately for television is?!!?
Re: overeasy – Awww…. I LIKE Alan Keyes!
I do think that that is sexist in a way. It would be sexist to criticize michelle obama's wardrobe too, not racist. i don't really know how that relates…..
anyways, the media wouldn't want to harm the obama campagin in any way. if anyone says anything neg. on obama they are attacking him, his family, his wife, etc. ughh it just makes me mad. like i said before, if you are running for vp you don't want a wardrobe inspired by the look of the great northern alaska….just saying
Re: STFUP –
just because the rep. party has different views than you, does not mean that they are uneducated
Why was Elizabeth even there?! She's a fashion designer (apparently) who then was on Survivor, and then got chosen for co-host on the view for some reason… and now she's at all these political events and white house dinners with the queen! Like wtf, she's not a politician!
Re: Gossip_Lea –
hahah but i'm sure YOU would have the nerve, while you're in the public spotlight on national, INTERnational televsion, to wear the crappy clothes on your back.
All I have to say is DON'T FORGET TO VOTE. All of what you say is just so meaningless if you don't vote. Whoever you are voting for, either side, just go out and vote!
Talk all you want but it doesn't mean ANYTHING if you don't vote.
Voting is your voice!
Re: Smirks –
Obama goes on to say "I AM NOT OPTIMISTIC ABOUT BRINGING MAJOR REDISTRIBUTIVE CHANGE THROUGH THE COURTS. THE INSTITUTION JUST ISN'T STRUCTURED THAT WAY."
If you had heard what he said in his entirety, or even read the transcript then you would know that he was actually speaking against the courts being involved in redistribution. He was basically saying that if you're going to go all the way to enact civil rights from the top down, you have to level the playing field. If you aren't going to do that, then the change has to come from the bottom up, from coalitions and grassroots movement. You can't institutionalize change. A VERY CONSERVATIVE IDEAL. You're just too blind with Obama hate to actually see it.
WHY do you care? they're donating the clothing, they do this for all the canidates so where are those headlines about Obama & Mccains expensive suits?? oh & Obamas wife ISNT running to Pres or VP so its really not a good comparasin. anyways she needed to look good/professional if they hadnt given her the clothing everyone would be talking about how she wasnt dressed for the job.
Re: scooterrific – do you understand the difference between campaigning and clothing?
Re: FUCPEREZ – if you knew anything about politics you would know that at this point in american culture, it would be political suicide to openly say you were for gay marriage. traditionally, democrats are more open minded than republicans and that will reflect future legislation. right now, when they want to be elected, they will not publicly condone it.
Re: Tmack – I don't hate Obama, and I did listen to the entire interview multiple times. Actually, he believes it's better to make redistributive change LEGISLATIVELY as opposed to through the courts because he thinks THE COURTS CAN'T DO ENOUGH. Go try to obfuscate to someone less educated than you, please. You're wasting your time with me.
Elizabeth sounds more intelligent than you Perez any day of the week. At least she used her own name to become famous. You are so lame.
IN WHAT WORLD DO YOU LIVE IN…. SHE DISCUSSED THIS ISSUE A COUPLE NIGHTS AGO IN AN INTERVIEW!!!!!!
Re: HATE_PEREZ – yeah republicans are really classy and intelligent, especially when they think that the middle east is a country and their vp candidate was picked because she has a vagina, loves plumbers and beer. please don't go spouting off about theology and gays, people should be less worried about consensual sex and more worried about the idiotic sanctioned murdering that is iraq, because if you knew what you were talking about it was afghanistan where bin laden went, not iraq
Can both of these IGNORANT b*tches just go away? November 4th can't come soon enough! Buh-bye, McCain/Palin!
Re: Shut.Tha.Fuck.Up – They are not trying to cover any shit up girl… She talked about it in an interview….. Pleaseeeeee OMGGGGGGG how annoying!!!!! I like this site… but you've been misinformed by Perez…. What happens when Michelle Obama goes out and has a $500 lunch??? Would it be sexist or racist to discuss that??
Lol. Even with $150,000 spent on outfits, she still looks like shit.
Vote NO on Proposition H8te…We need to remind everybody that Gov. Palin is the only one in the race with executive office experience!!! Obama gives great speeches…he should go back to Harvard and stay there as a Lecturer…The fact of the matter is that If you raise Corporate tax, and you also raise Minimum Wage… what do you think that'll happen??? Specifically small business owners that have a lower margin will have to lay off to be able to compensate for the increase in tax and salary expenses!!!! IT'S INSANE TO VOTE FOR NOBAMA!!!!!————————————————————————————————————————
Also, he wants to raise taxes on Capital Gains…well news flash, the stock market is in the crapper. Investors are scared to put money back in the market and they have a valid fear of losing their money. So if on top of that, you tell them that if they happen to invest and make a gain they will get taxed higher. With his economic plan, He's not giving incentives to the investor. He's not giving incentives to corporations and what good does having to pay lower personal taxes if you don't have an actual job, because your company let you go…after Obama raised their taxes…————————————————————————————– As you can see Obama's plan affects everybody!!! VOTE McCAIN/PALIN 08'!!!!!!
On one hand the politicians need to look good and sometimes that takes money. On the other hand it doesnt take THAT much money to look good. Sarah Palin is also not the only one to spend a lot of money on her clothes. I am quite sure if you look around you will find more that spend an ungodly amount on clothes as well as other things. Politicians like to spend their "free" money.
elizabitch needs her sum big black dick.
Re: Smirks – finally somebody says what I've been thinking!
ok, so where is this clothes going then, cause i really need a new "business attire" wardrobe
Re: MP – I'd agree w/ you 100% if it was her OWN money she was wasting, but it's NOT. McCain is a moron for choosing her. Even other republicans are going against him for choosing this twat!
Re: lorelai66 – There are a lot more of us than you think
I think it's ridiiculous that Palin is spending $150.000 on clothes and $22.000 on makeup. She needs to crawl back to her igloo and take Elizabitch with her.
Re: obsess_much – wow. you ARE an idiot.
please, try to talk your way out of Obama attending a hate-filled church for twenty years? "goddamn america"? huh? explain that one. THATS RIGHT BECAUSE YOU CANT.
admit it. Obama and his america hating wife HATE white people..yes, you read correctly. try and find any evidence that proves otherwise.
stupid bitch.
and obama not only refused to wear an american flag pin, but also refuse to put his hand over his heart during the national anthem. bush may have been an idiot with his power, but at least hes FUCKING PATRIOTIC. unless your buttboy.
shut the fuck up, already.
Re: lorelai66 – Speak for yourself. Maybe something like that is exactly what YOU need. The beautiful Elizabeth is not sexually needy - obviously.
Re: Frogger – Go away, ignoramus. None of us know how much Michelle Obama spends on her clothes, who pays for them. The liberal media would never write, air this story about her or any demoncrat. However, in a story about Michelle I read several months ago, she loves designer clothes, has a closet full of them, — which is sad, because clothes cannot make her look good; she has an awful figure and her face resembles something seen in a zoo, behind bars. Now, I do not like to criticize how she looks because she can't help that, but I do resent the lib media comparing her to Jackie O, Mrs. Reagan, Laura Bush and yes, Cindy McCain. They were/are all extremely attractive women; and nothing can Michelle even so-so. So there dumdum.
Re: Smirks – The reason they are fussing about the clothes is to distract citizens from the real issues, which underline how incompetent BO is. Furthermore, apparently they have nothing else to rant on about the McCAin/Palin campaign.
When you pretend to be just an average "Joe six pack," "wal-mart shopping," "hockey mom" you loose all credibility when you spend almost $30,000 for two weeks worth of makeup and over $150,000 for clothes at the ritziest stores in the U.S. Michelle Obama wears dresses from department stores for $100 a pop.
Point is, Sarah Palin had a choice, she could've said no to the expensive clothes knowing the image she was trying to portray. Its good to know with the economy going down the drain the republican party still knows how to have a good time while the rest of us suffer at their expense.
Re: Jenafreaka – Michelle Obama is merely a political wife - not a vice presidential candidate - and you have no business comparing her to the VP nominee. Michelle isn't half the woman Palin is and never will be.
Yes, even Hillary C. came out and said everyone needed to shut up about Sarah's clothes and focus on the issues. She said she is frustrated that no one can ever focus on what a woman says, just on her clothes and hair.
Also, $100,000 of it was returned and $50,000 was used to outfit the entire family. But no one would expect you to report the facts Perez.
the woman isnt even elected as VP (nor will she) and she is already fucking up.
sad sad
Re: Jenafreaka – The fact is that Obama has raised twice as much funds as McCain… why doesn't he donate that money to the fucking welfare lazy buns that are voting for his ass and believe in his economic plan… Well they probably haven't even read it…!!!!! Free money sounds good fuck the other candidate right??? It's so easy to focus on this non-sense… but while we're in this subject… how much do you think he's spending on his suits… or you think that he's getting them from JcPenney!!! His campaign has been so over the fucking top, his excessive advertisement is insaneeeee…. and a waste of money!!!!!!!!

What i think is funny, is that she brings up the fact that she has a favorite consignment shop that she goes to in Alaska.
I, myself, work at a consignment boutique and i know that if you're stuck in the habit of buying pretty designer GENTLY used clothing, you wouldn't want a spend a quarter of a million dollars on suits that don't even look that special.
The funny thing is, we have this super cute light pink escada suit that looks almost brand new, and i thought hey if i was a politician, i would definitely wear something like that!!
HAH! so for Palin to act Eco-Friendly is such bullshit. She is not. Apparently she will shop at consignment stores and still spend full retail on expensive wear. Yeah, nice try. It doesn't work.
Re: Kate1988 – I think you're ignorant for saying such petty things.
"Why do you care?"
Oh thats a hard one, gee, um maybe because she is running for vice president for our country, spending tons of dollars that shouldn't be used on clothing and makeup but rather more important things.
and yeah i don't think needing to look good requires a shitload of money sweetheart. Get a job and learn the values of income. =)
WHO CARES??????? If I could spend 150000 of campaign money on a wardrobe, i sooooooo definitely would…. Besides, republican campaign money comes from rich republicans that can afford it. Think of it this way: the more campaign money they spend on Sarah Palin's wardrobe, the less money they will have to actually campaign = good for the democrats! You people should actually be happy about this!
Sorry Hasselback but I wouldn’t call that sexism…the thought of spending $150,000 on Palin’s clothes are totally absurd. It actually wouldn’t have been so bad if it wasn’t money from the RNC and it’s also hypocritical that this woman claims to be in touch with the average American person yet their nothing average about shopping at Neiman Marcus and Saks.
Re: poopdiddy2008 –
You are a Nazi fuckwit and a racist idiot.Go and blow yourself up idiot.You obviously know FA about Marxism anyway.Typical.!!
Perez - I'm starting to think that you aren't going to vote for McCain / Palin.
yes, it is ridiculous and sexist. definitely!
I think there is such a double standard when it comes to McCain/Palin. The Obama supporters are trying to find anything and everything to make these two look bad. What about some REAL issues. I am sorry but Palins wardrobe budget is not even comparable to Obama's philosophy of what government should be and God forbid we talk about his close relationships to some very shady people. No ofcourse that isn't relevant. Palin's wardrobe budget is much more important, than the character and agenda of Obama. Give me a break, the left can't get anything better than this?
you'd think for someone who spends 150,000 on her wardrobe she'd put they to good use. i dont see it. it would be understandable if she dressed like jackie kennedy, who we all know had great fashion sense
why cant i see the other sixty-eight comments?
Re: Stevie D. – Honey, if you don't know the difference between "YOU'RE" and "YOUR", you shouldn't be speaking at all. Look at what the last moron did to America for the last 8 years. We DO NOT need a repeat in history. We need CHANGE. We need RESULTS. We need OBAMA.
Also, I believe it IS important for the public to point SARAH PALIN'S spending habits out. Some of you say that you've donated to the McCain and Palin Campaign and that you don't care where they spend their money. Some of you say that being a Governor doesn't supply you with a "luxurious salary" and if you had the money handed to you, then you would do the same. I am a strong successful woman who makes a generous salary and I believe dressing for the part. However, $150,000 in six weeks is ridiculous. Her lack of better judgment on this issue or "opportunity" shows how she will decide how she spends our hard earned American dollars. She cannot even answer a question during a one on one interview properly. She constantly stumbles on her answers. Do you REALLY want someone like SARAH PALIN to step in as a leader for this nation? Imagine a life where their is economic crises, children who are not getting a decent education, and health cuts… OH WAIT, we're living this life NOW. And look how SARAH PALIN spent YOUR money.
WE NEED A LEADER WHO IS TRULY OUT THERE THINKING OF SOCIETY RATHER THAN BEING SELFISH AND THINKING ABOUT THEIR WARDROBE.
Sure, this issue may have been blown a little out of proportion but it is definitely concrete evidence of SARAH'S idiotic judgment and consideration for THE PEOPLE in her nation.
/b/Yes, it's definitely sexist! If she were a man, no one would even be discussing her clothes at all. This campaign has highlighted how sexism is alive and well in 2008.
