Lunch with Palin will really cost you!
Want to have dinner with former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin? Well, you’d better be ready to sell the second home.
The former Alaskan governor and ex-Republican vice presidential candidate is being offered as a dinner partner in a charity auction on eBay, raising funds for the Ride 2 Recovery program, which supports wounded veterans through cycling programs.
The opening bid for the 3-course dinner is $25,000 but that number is expected to rise significantly over the next few days, especially considering a similar prize featuring Warren Buffet went for over $2.1million in 2008.
So, if you like Sarah Palin, or if you don’t but would like to tell her face-to-face, get the checkbook out and be brave!
Levi’s not comfy for Sarah Palin
Johnston and Palin have a chilly relationship
The ex-future son-in-law of Sarah Palin, Levi Johnston, has released a stinging report about the goings on within the Palin household.
The report includes accusations of lazy parenting on behalf of both Sarah and her husband Todd; the supposed doting parents of a down’s syndrome baby who, according to Johnston, passed their responsibilities off to their daughter, Bristol.
Johnston depicts Sarah Palin “on the living-room couch in her two-piece pajama set from WalMart.”
Johnston continues to attack the Palin’s parenting skills accusing Todd of being a clost alcoholic and claiming selfishness on behalf of Sarah.
“Todd, for his part, was in the garage sneaking beers,” says Johnston. “There wasn’t much parenting in that house, Sarah doesn’t cook, Todd doesn’t cook — the kids would do it all themselves: cook, clean, do the laundry, and get ready for school.”
Look, obviously this could be damaging to Sarah Palin, both as a political figure and as a mother, but one would be foolish to take Johnstons words seriously. Levi Johnston comes across as a creep; he is looking for fame through the route of defacing a political figure.
Johnston got Bristol Palin pregnant. Congratulations, sir. But his attempts to rile the media into believing his selfish stories are lame at best.
Johnston would be best served getting his life in order and creating a comfortable atmosphere with his child’s grandparents instead of pursuing his own selfish folly.
Palin is top 100 most influential of ‘08
Sarah Palin is a Republican's dream
Time Magazine has named Sarah Palin number 79 on a list of the 100 most influential people of 2008.
Palin was nominated as running-mate for Republican candidate John McCain in the 2008 U.S. National Election.
Palin, a 45 year old mother of five breathed life into what was a spluttering campaign for McCain who was facing a landslide defeat of historic proportions before selecting his running-mate.
Sarah Palin made the Republican party more attractive, particularly among women; she even attracted some previously Democratic voters whose first allegiance was to Hillary Clinton.
The effect had on the election by Sarah Palin’s inclusion should not be overlooked and, if the Republicans had won, she may have gone down as the most influential VP of all time. Sadly for Palin though, the election belonged to Barack Obama and his Democrats, leaving Palin struggling for the recognition she deserved.
Despite the eventual and inevitable failure of the Republican bid in 2008, Sarah Palin remains a revered personality within America’s conservative ranks. Palin continues to represent the Republican Party as the governor of Alaska and will remain one of the most popular politicians in the country amongst Republican voters.
