Sarah Palin's makeup artist :D

(22,000 dollars for the first two weeks)

YOUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORKLOLBONC
 
You are somewhat misleading with your post, although the header is most certainly correct.

The McCain campaign reported paying $13,200 in September to celebrity makeup artist Amy Strozzi, who works on the reality show "So You Think You Can Dance." She was paid $22,800 for the first two weeks of October, nearly double what the campaign paid McCain's foreign policy adviser, Randy Scheunemann, according to a filing report.

So you see, she was paid almost 23k for the first two weeks of October. Your post implies it was for the first two weeks of September. Semantics!
 
I'm pretty sure McCain's campaign is receiving public funding, and I'm going to make the huge assumption that she personally is not paying tens of thousands of dollars a month for a makeup artist.
 
Although I think the amount of money they're paying for her hair, make-up, and clothing is outrageous.. I can't really get worked up about it. The guys can wear the same blue or black suit everywhere and no one will notice a thing, but if a famous woman wears the same outfit twice the "media" goes berserk. Remember how the media treated Hilary over her pantsuits and helmet hair?
 
Margaret Thatcher to leave the US for a moment.

There was a woman in desperate need of a makeup artist.
 
It is your tax dollars at work sugar. She's a fucking bitch. And y'all are in trouble if you actually manage to install them in the White House next week (which I seriously doubt you'll be able to pull off)

We just aren't that stupid anymore. She's a two faced lying little elitist twat.
 
22,000 for the makeup artist and 10,000 for her HAIR STYLIST just the first two weeks of this month. Wonder what Little Black Sambo spent?

Most definitely your tax dollars at work.

I think everyone here agrees with you.. and I'm not trying to install her in the White House ;)

Dearest. McCain, although eligible, did not accept the checkoff funding from the Presidential Public Funding Program. What tax dollars is he and/or Palin spending?
 
Actually, McCain did accept public financing. Obama didn't, which is why he has so much more money to spend.
 
And the Tiger chased Little Black Sambo around and around and around the tree until he melted into butter, So he put it all into the great big brass pot, and took it home to Black Mumbo to cook with. When Black Mumbo saw the melted butter, wasn't she pleased! "Now," said she, "we'll all have pancakes for supper!"

So she got flour and eggs and milk and sugar and butter, and she made a huge big plate of most lovely pancakes.

And she fried them in the melted butter which the Tigers had made, and they were just as yellow and brown as littleTigers.

And then they all sat down to supper.

And Black Mumbo ate Twenty-seven pancakes, and Black Jumbo ate Fifty-five but Little Black Sambo ate a Hundred and Sixty-nine, because he was so hungry.

The End

Interesting. It was my understanding that Obama was all about campaign finance reform because privately funded candidates with big bucks had an unfair advantage. At least he was in 2006. He was even for it in 2007. Guess it is different when it is his "private financing" that is on the line.

Where did you find that McCain accepted public financing? When Obama committed back in 2007 to go the public finance route, so did McCain. But, when Obama renigged on his promise, I think McCain did also.
