Have it your way Brod, Politico, who broke the story, and they are not exactly a bastion of liberalism, has even more on the story you think is nonsense:
"...Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), a watchdog group, has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission against Sarah Palin and the Republican National Committee claiming the RNC violated campaign finance laws when it paid for $150,000 for clothes for the party`s vice presidential nominee and her family.
Melanie Sloan, CREW`s executive director, said the purchases should be disallowed under campaign finance rules that prevent candidates from using campaign cash to buy items of `personal use,` including clothing."
And before you go off claiming that CREW is a "leftist" group, a term that I doubt you can even adequately define, you might want to actually visit their Web site and you will see they use the same zeal going after Democrats and Independents as much as the Republicans. |
