Another Day Another Ethics Complain Against Palin’s Corruption

Transparency! Government accountability! Anti-pork! $50,000 of tax payer money to shuttle your kids around America on a private plane! Oops… [via CBSNews]

Alaska Governor and Republican Vice President hopeful Sarah Palin may be facing another round of scrutiny, this time for charging the state for her children to travel with her while conducing official state business.

Bristol, Piper and Willow, Palin’s daughters, accrued $32,629 in travel expenses while Palin’s husband Todd raked up $22,174 – all billed to the state for a total of $54,803.00.

“The Governor’s office has expended $54,803.00 in Alaska state dollars for family travel since December 2006,” according to the Governor’s Administrative Services Director, Linda Perez. “The documentation related to family travel has changed and you have to keep in mind that the governor and her family are very popular,” added Perez.

So Sarah Palin is the economically conservative and responsible maverick, but she has no problem spending $150,000 on her wardrobe, giving her kids thousand dollar handbags, or using tax payer money to fly her kids around the US?

You Betcha Your Economy Is Fucked

Devastating:

“I’m going to be honest: I know a lot less about economics than I do about military and foreign policy issues. I still need to be educated,” McCain said in a 2005 interview with the Wall Street Journal.

A quote from McCain in a November 2007 CNN/YouTube debate is also shown, when the Arizona senator said, “I might have to rely on a vice president that I select…”

(The Obama campaign says McCain was particularly talking about relying on the VP for the economy, though McCain was describing a wide range of issues.)

A graphic is then shown displaying the question, “His choice?” — before showing Sarah Palin winking at the vice presidential debate.

But hey, who needs a job or a stable economy when you have Jesus and his chosen charlatans winking at you from above?

American Sources of Oil

By allowing offshore drilling in 2008, new offshore sources of oil would only account for 1.2% of total oil consumption in America. By 2030.

Drill baby drill — such a sensible energy policy.

Game 5 Liveblogging

Well the Obamarama finished, now it’s time for baseball!

It’s bottom of the 6th because that northeaster destroyed the end.

The Phils managed to score somehow, and now lead 3-2.

Howard pops out to end after a great job baserunning. It’s ad time baby.

ESPN China has some ads about UEFA, that shits pretty interesting. Anyone want to go see the Red Bulls?

Top 7 – Ryan Madson on to pitch, 1.50 ERA in the postseason. That’s pretty good. Whenever I see an anomalous stat though, I always wonder if they are due for a correction.

Navarro goes down on strikes, I guess that 1.50 ERA might not be an anomaly.

Homer! Baldelli hits it over the fence. It was due. 3-3 game.

Base hit. Rays pitcher Howell is up with one on. God that was a bad bunt attempt. Well he got the job done. Runner moves to second. Pitcher change.

Damn fine play at home by the second baseman. Heads up play not throwing to first with the runner from second trying to score. We go to the bottom side.
