October 22, 200817 yr Funny thing I notice. The ones who consistently post in threads attacking Obama and his possible "corruptions" never say, "Well there's enough corruption on both sides" blah blah blah. Not until something comes out about your candidate. Whether it's Palin with troopergate, or Palin with this...it's okay when she does it, because she has done less than Obama. Does that make the things she does wrong okay?
October 22, 200817 yr If? :lol: Care to elaborate? Did Barack Obama lie and waste his states tax dollars for his kids travel expenses when he should have been paying the tab on his own?
October 22, 200817 yr Honest question. Does she have to declare these expenses for her children as income? When my family goes on a convention/conference trip with me, unless the church approves paying their expenses, I can't use my allowances for their meals and/or plane tickets. Just curious if this is applicable to here.
October 22, 200817 yr Don't you two get it? If Obama wants to be painted as the anti-lobbyist, but takes lobbyist money and nominates a VP candidate whose son is a lobbyist (I believe), then he deserves to be painted as a fraud. Yes, every politician does shady things. But if Palin wants to be painted as a reformer, then she deserves to be exposed as a fraud as well, for even minor transgressions. You can't put yourself on a pedestal, and then expect to get away with whatever you want. You bash liberals but have the same blind eye to your beloved GOP members. Two wrongs don't make a right. Call a spade as a spade, and quit looking at the big letter beside their name. :thumb: How many times have we heard Palin say that she's just not like others from Washington? She is proving time and time again that she is a lot like them...only with less experience IN Washington.

She is proving time and time again that she is a lot like them...only with less experience IN Washington. Time and time again? Really? Let me ask this, why do you not question BHO's past and present associations/dealings like this? Why is it always called smear tatics and fear-mongering with BHO (not necessarily by you)? How many times have we heard Obama spout change only to find out is exactly like most politians before him?
October 22, 200817 yr The charges included costs for hotel and commercial flights for three daughters to join Palin to watch their father in a snowmobile race, and a trip to New York, where the governor attended a five-hour conference and stayed with 17-year-old Bristol for five days and four nights in a luxury hotel.

October 22, 200817 yr Care to elaborate? Did Barack Obama lie and waste his states tax dollars for his kids travel expenses when he should have been paying the tab on his own?Not to my knowledge. However, he has funnelled millions of dollars to political supporters, including William Ayers, Tony Rezko, and his wife's employer among many others. In addition, he is the second largest recipient of political donations from Fannie Mae, trailing only committee chairman Christopher Dodd in that area. When it comes to feeding at the public trough, Obama is a hog.

I'm not sure which dealings specifically you are referring to. This one is pretty cut and dry, she misused Alaska's tax dollars for her personal gain.
October 22, 200817 yr I'm not sure which dealings specifically you are referring to. This one is pretty cut and dry, she misused Alaska's tax dollars for her personal gain. I don't dispute that with the story linked she did do that. I will reserve final judgement until she has had the opportunity to address this. I also gave Obama the same but he choose to either 1. not address his issues, 2. lie about them over and over, 3. call everyone a racist for bringing it up, or 4. try and silence his critics with legal action. Let's address one. Acorn is under investigation/indictment in 13 states for voter fraud. Obama has given them over $800,000 for their get the vote out effort. He represented them at one time as their lawyer. He use to train their workers. Where is your questioning of this?

Not enough to discuss the topic very deeply. I would like to know whether or not Obama "gave" them the money while knowing they were committing voter fraud or if he didn't know.

That's funny because the only thing you know about the topic of this thread is from the one article that was posted but that didn't stop you from passing judgement on Palin.

ACORN members have been indicted and convicted of voter fraud in past elections and if I am aware of that fact it is a dead certainty that Obama and his staff were aware of that fact. Somebody is financing the voter registration fraud that ACORN is currently committing across the nation. I wonder from where that money is flowing? Maybe the McCain/Palin campaign is financing them. After all, ACORN is a non-partisan, tax exempt organization. :lol:
