Palin Milking Alaskan Expense Account

(Community Matters) So typically Bush-style Republican: talk about fiscal stewardship, take meaningless actions (such as opposing the bridge to no where only after its funding has been cut) and then personally feed at the trough. The Washington Post is now reporting how Palin and her family billed Alaskans for 312 days, (i.e., collecting the per diem intended to reimburse for lodging and meals while traveling on state business) while they were home in Wasilla. The governor’s husband and daughters charged Alaska $44,000 for their personal travel. story here

Even the ultra-liberal rag :), the Wall Street Journal, is calling the McCain campaign out for their lies about Palin’s record
