Have your say: Sarah Palin
Her own party has admitted the Alaska Governor blew the cash (almost $150,000) on shopping sprees in upmarket shops such as Neiman Marcus and Saks.
The vice-presidential candidate has worked hard to appeal to "Hockey Moms" during the Republican campaign and they are likely to see the spending as an extravagance.
And with less than two weeks to go until the US election, the Republicans can barely sustain such gaffes.
A recent poll puts Democrat Barack Obama ten points ahead of rival John McCain.

The real question is what do the American public, and media, think about Palin.
Palin is so stupid that she makes any thinking person hate her.
Here are 20 criticisms of Palin:
20) "Her greatest hypocrisy is in her pretense that she is a woman." -- Wendy Doniger at the Washington Post
19) "Is our country so divided that the Republicans best hope is a narrow minded, media obsessed homophobe?
...Women have come a long way in the fight to have the choice over what we do with our bodies... And its frightening to see that a woman in 2008 would negate all of that.
Oh, and...Hint Hint Pali Pal- Don't pose for anymore tabloid covers, you're not a celebrity, you're running for office to represent our, your, my COUNTRY!
And in the words of Pamela Anderson, "She can suck it".." -- Lindsay Lohan
18) (John McCain has chosen a running mate) "whose primary qualification seems to be that she hasn't had an abortion." -- South Carolina Democratic chairwoman Carol Fowler
17) "With Sarah Palin, America has taken one very large leap toward a completely theocratic politics." -- Andrew Sullivan, The Atlantic
16) "They are true believers in the idea that one can be very sexy but also desexualized, which is why Palin is being treated like this giant sex object, because she's got a practiced ability at being f*ckable without showing that she might be the sort who wants to f*ck." -- Former John Edwards's blogger Amanda Marcotte from Pandagon
15) "If the media reaction is anything, it's been literally laughter in many places across newsrooms." -- Eleanor Clift, the McLaughlin Group
14) "Sarah Palin may be a lady, but she ain't no woman. I confess, it was pretty riveting when John McCain trotted out Sarah Palin for the first time. Like many people, I thought, "D*mn, a hyperconservative, f*ckable, Type A, antiabortion, Christian Stepford wife in a 'sexy librarian' costume -- as a vice president? That's a brilliant stroke of horrifyingly cynical pandering to the Christian right. Karl Rove must be behind it." -- Cintra Wilson, Salon
13) "Bad Mother Palin is blabbing about how her pregnant teenage daughter has made the right CHOICE!!! Well, first of all, Ms. Palin, I mean MRS. Palin, your slutty daughter wouldn't have a CHOICE to make at all, if you had your way!!! ...I can see that she gets off talking badly to Barack, and I am sure the "N" word is rollin around that empty head of hers somewhere." -- Roseanne Barr
12) "Some working mothers worry that Palin is taking on too much" And "Some voters concerned if Palin, a mother of five has time to be VP." -- Tickers on MSNBC
11) "If I were writing a letter to Sarah Palin it would be a lot of whys and hows. Who are you? Do you know? Why do you hate animals? Please point out Iraq on a map." -- Pink
10) "They shouldn't have the right to call themselves Christian, for they have no Christ-like attributes. I am a feminist and a Christian - and when I see Sarah Palin - I see neither. And it is official. She is evil." -- Margaret Cho
9) "But really, what kind of role model is a woman whose fifth child was recently born with a serious issue, Down Syndrome, and then goes back to the job of Governor within days of the birth?" -- Dr Laura Schlessinger
8. - "It's like a really bad Disney movie. The hockey mom, you know, 'oh, I'm just a hockey mom'... and she's facing down President Putin... It's totally absurd... it's a really terrifying possibility... I need to know if she really think that dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago. I want to know that, I really do. Because she's gonna have the nuclear codes." -- Matt Damon
7) "She's the woman who shows up at the kid's birthday party and starts opining about everything from politics to lawn care. This is the woman that knows it all. Will shout you down, will get revenge on you. That's who she is.
She's friends with all the teenage boys. You have to say no when your kids say, 'can we sleep over at the Palin's? No! NO!'" -- Randi Rhodes
6) "What is the difference between Palin and a Muslim fundamentalist? Lipstick." -- Juan Cole at Salon
5) "Kristan, we've talked this morning about whether a mother of five can handle being the vice president. who looks after the kids when she's working? Do you know?" - CBS' Maggie Rodriguez on the "Early Show
4) "A few years ago, CBS gave serious consideration to a reality series called The Real Beverly Hillbillies. The idea was to "transplant genuine Appalachian natives into the world of Los Angeles glitz and glamour." It never happened. But now it has, with a twist - Alaskan hillbillies have been transplanted into the world of Washington politics." -- John Doyle at the Globe and Mail
3) "The Bible says to whom much is given much is required and it comes out of that tradition. So it was insulting to see both, you know, (Sarah Palin) as well as Mayor Giuliani criticize people. There's some on the Internet now that Jesus was a community organizer, Pontius Pilate was a governor. And perhaps they should understand the role of a community organizer, do help people in distress." -- Donna Brazille On CNN's Situation Room
2) "Sarah, I'm calling you a liar. And not even a good one. Trig Paxson Van Palin is not your son. He is your grandson. The sooner you come forward with this revelation to the public, the better." -- Daily Kos diarist ArcXIX
1) "The broader question if Sarah Palin becomes vice president, will she be shortchanging her kids or will she be shortchanging the country?" -- NBC correspondent Amy Robach
But Senator Obama's remarks were thought by many as aimed at Palin.
Senator Obama thinks Palin is white racist pig who hates black people:
He also called her a stinking fish:
"You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig. You can wrap an old fish in a piece of paper called 'change,' it's still going to stink. After eight years, we've had enough of the same old hing. It's time to bring about real change to Washington and that's the choice you've got in this election."

Senator Obama thinks that racist Palin might even try more dirty tactics.
He said Republicans are going to get "more nasty".
The black Senator running for the Presidency of the United States
might even end up being assassinated by whites who
hate the idea seeing a "black man in White House".
So far, there have been two assassination attemtps on the life of Senator Obama.
Racist in U.S wanted to go on a "killing spree targeting blacks".
Racists had plans to "behead blacks in their hundreds and thousands" inside America.
Cuban leader Fidel Castro thinks that it will be a "miracle" if Obama is not dead by Christmas.
Speaking of policies, from what I've read, Obama is pro-Israeli. Will a change of leadership in the US be a force for change in the current foreign policy? I remember a J-Post article concluding that Obama was as pro-Israel as Israeli citizens themselves.

A radio DJ in Canada proved how stupid Palin really is.
The radio presenter Marc-Antoine Audette from Montreal
phoned Palin in her home. He pretended to be the President of France.
The dumb cow fell for it.
When she picked up the phone, he told Palin he was Nicolas Sarkozy.
She continued to chat with the "President of France" - Audette.
There are people whose intellect is same as that of a Moose
who will still vote for her on 4 November 2008.

Ooooh this is going to be interesting.
They'll probably get one of the largest ever amount of people voting just because a black man is in the running.
So who do you think is gonna win??
I think it'll be very close. But I think Obama will just top it.
Lets turn the white house from a white house in to the black house.

A lot of people are voting early well before the actualy election day.
It is reported that 30 millions Americans have already cast their ballot.
However, we are being told by experts that there is a lot of
election fraud going on in the United States.
Black Americans are being hindered, and even intimidated,
from going to the polling stations.
Also, vote rigging is epidimic in many states.
FBI is concerned that dodgy democracy is being practiced in 2008 American elections:
