    We're talking tens of thousands of dollars of travel expenses for her kids to attend both political events the kids were not invited to and personal trips with no government connection.

    Not illegal, but certainly unusual according to other politicians who say it borders on theft.

    Hilarious that it's Palin, who claims to be a "reformer" and a "corruption fighter". :biglaugh:

    The Emporess has no clothes!:clap:

    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.

    In all, Palin has charged the state $21,012 for her three daughters' 64 one-way and 12 round-trip commercial flights since she took office in December 2006. In some other cases, she has charged the state for hotel rooms for the girls.

    Obama used taxpayer money to campaign for Odinga in Kenya.

    Let's focus on Palin bringing her children with her to a hotel.
