So what? Who Cares? Is she still running for VP?

Meanwhile no word on the Obama BIRTH CERTIFICATE.

Now if Sarah was going to be sworn in this January you would have a point.

You do not.

Sound like OCD to me.

And should be held accountable. Especially considering that the law they broke was the McCain-Feingold campaign finance act, a delicious irony, indeed.

Something Stinks, you are an idiot. Do you really think you can get a top-secret security clearance without being an American citizen? Have you ever had a security clearance? They interview your girlfriend, your second cousins, and your great-grandma, if you have one. They do a deep background check, including citizen status. In your case, they'd disqualify you based on your mental illness, most likely.

Oh, I mean, please don't throw me in the briar patch, br'er fox!

You mean the Obama birth certificate that was personally verified by the Health Department Director and registrar of vital statistics of the State of Hawaii?

(Insert OCD joke related to this fool posting the same post twice.)

Thy name is Alex Koppelman.

So all these stories about Palin's clothes suffer from the same problem as the stuff about John Edwards' haircuts. We need to know more about how much is generally spent on campaign clothing and other usual items.

"$300 for a haircut! Oh my, mine only costs $10! How wasteful! $30,000 for clothes - why my whole wardrobe comes in well under $1000! How scandalous!"

But I suspect pretty much any campaign spending is going to look out of proportion. For one thing, campaigns are permanently on the road, and you always spend more on the road than you do at home. For another, when you're paying high salaries to your campaign advisers, you may well lose money by having them spend their time counting pennies. Some of the disproportionality is thus just a product of different circumstances; no doubt much of it is still excessive once we take this into account.

I'm a die hard lefty with no love for Palin or her politics, but I just have a hard time getting outraged about this. It's just disingenuous to focus on this one aspect of excess, unless you can show that it's something more than a case of the general excess that characterizes the whole business of national political campaigns.

It has been debunked moron. Why don't you make up a new untrue smear story? Do you also believe the Face on Mars asshole? Did Nostradamus predict Obama would start the end times?

What fools republicans sound like with such nonsense. Of course, I hope you don't change a thing about yourself. Keep believing your fairytales and Democrats will keep wiping the floor with you.

Now back to something really important...who did the Wasilla Hillbillies loot this time?

Thy name is Sarah Palin.

You trust a government official from the state of Hawaii?

I bet you wouldn't trust a state official from ALASKA, now, would you?

Yeah, and the government didn't lie about WMDs either.

There is no Birth Certificate that Obama feels comfortable showing.

I had to show mine for my driver's license, my jobs and my security clearance.

Why can't Obama do the same?

Bullshit?

Just show the damned paper.

It costs 7.50 for a copy.

Show it to everyone.

Not doing that is bullshit.

Why is anyone stupid enough to believe that bullshit story about the birth certificate?

I doubt more than a small fraction of the people harping on the myth are actually stupid enough to believe it. That's not why they bring it up.

The picture is at this link.

It is as close as you can come to holding it in your hand. But I guess you would just claim it is a forgery and refuse to believe the actual proof. That is what Bush did to this country. If you don't want something to be true, just refuse to believe it and claim all evidence is fake. He has damaged us beyond belief. Some of us act like abused women that think he really loves us and take him back for more abuse. What a sickness.

...the birth certificate is all they have left to cling to.

It is kind of like using the McCain, "Stay in Iraq for 100 years" claim. I am guilty of using it myself, even though I knew he didn't want the war to last that long. It is a strange way to argue politics...to create a strawman and then rail against it. I am glad you pointed that out.

The troll is pushing your buttons. Mockery, not argument, is what you need to give Stinky.

"Recently FactCheck representatives got a chance to spend some time with the birth certificate, and we can attest to the fact that it is real and three-dimensional and resides at the Obama headquarters in Chicago. We can assure readers that the certificate does bear a raised seal, and that it's stamped on the back by Hawaii state registrar Alvin T. Onaka (who uses a signature stamp rather than signing individual birth certificates). We even brought home a few photographs."

"The scan released by the campaign shows halos around the black text, making it look (to some) as though the text might have been pasted on top of an image of security paper. But the document itself has no such halos, nor do the close-up photos we took of it. We conclude that the halo seen in the image produced by the campaign is a digital artifact from the scanning process."

"We also note that so far none of those questioning the authenticity of the document have produced a shred of evidence that the information on it is incorrect."

"In fact, the conspiracy would need to be even deeper than our colleagues realized. In late July, a researcher looking to dig up dirt on Obama instead found a birth announcement that had been published in the Honolulu Advertiser on Sunday, Aug. 13, 1961:"
