No - I said that your comment about "how many ceos have 350k comp packages" was irrelevant - I know it's hard trying to figure out new ways to deflect the question, but DO try to keep up, professor.

misskriss 0 #34 October 23, 2008 The deal is, Palin's big schtick if you will is being a "hockey mom" and connecting with Joe sixpack and now Joe the plumber. There's a photo of her 7 yr old carrying a LV purse which is just a tad ridiculous but whatever. It wouldn't be such a big deal if she didn't talk all the time about the " New York elite" etc. I guess now she is part of the Alaska Elite. I do understand that she needs a new wardrobe but my goodness that's a lot of shopping. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nice photo of the kid and a LV handbag.. thats crazy.. what happend to hanna Montana gear like the rest of kids her age? Joe six pack, joe the plumber, bob the builder, where is waldo? what the hell? I see today that Joe the plumbers real name is Sam and that he is not even a plumber, he also does not know what his company makes net per year and is about 100k short of what he thought. Hockey mom, bull hockey is what I say to the lies that the Mccain camp constantly spew, lies, coverup's and damage control, lots of damage control. I will be glad when this is all over so we can bitch about who ever wins, they both will suck so whats the point?

normiss 622 #40 October 23, 2008 I know plenty of women with $10-$15 / hour jobs that have label purses. What does this mean??? I'm curious what an ailing grandmother is going to cost....just saying.
