Sarah Palin busted. Takes private jet to book events, then rides 'tour bus' from airport to event

reply to post by dodadoom

Gotta star you for that one. Every election the headlines shout "DEMOCRATS WIN!" Or they shout "REPUBLICANS WIN!" I have never seen one yet that says AMERICANS WIN!

There is a good reason for that. It is because we never win when Republicans or Democrats are elected.

Well glad to see the source you quoted wasn't a little biased. You are so funny in your desparate liberal attempt to discredit Palin.

Thank you GG! Right back at ya!
You would think we would learn by now!

I agree we get our hopes up with these plastic people though!
I really thought obama was different at first. I didnt vote for him though!
He really made me realize who runs the show!
Once I heard who he was planning on putting in charge,
I knew we were toast.
Mccain thought the economy's problems were all in our heads!
See, either way, it was a done deal. Everyone has their price.
If money doesnt do it, there is always threats.

They just tell us what we want to hear till they get in office,
then they have to start paying back everyone who paid for the trip!
They play on our fears about all kinds of things!
Gays, religion, terror, flu, jobs, taxes, etc, etc......
And we fall for it everytime like good sheep.

Anyone like Ron Paul for instance is ridiculed and shunned.
I wish there was an emoticon for banging my head against the wall
because I could use it here!

We are suckered into it everytime!
Well the majority anyway.
We always say its the lessor of two evils!
Ya, thats gotta be good!
(thanks for listening to my garbldygook)

I have a point. Since when do charities, christian or otherwise fund private planes for ex-politicians to go on book tours? I never see that in the literature. I have another point...It's double transportation. It's a waste of resources. If the bus makes it on time to pick her up at the next stop, well she could have kept the bus driver company on the ride. It's the point that she is to good to ride the bus the entire way, you know since it's going there anyway...TO PICK HER UP...think about it...Bookstore to the airport to drop idiot, i mean sarah, off ... bus drives to next city where idiot, has been shuttled from that airport to a hotel....bus finally arrives picks her up....to the bookstore we go...then back to the aiprort to do it all again tomorrow. Its a waste of resources for only one reason...she feels she is entitled and better. And again, let's not forget it's funded by a f'ing charity. That's the real problem I have with it. I guess the elite have their charities too. Wonder when that will trickle down to the rest of us?

Wow, you sure are desperate to find dirt on Sarah.
If this is the best you can do, Sarah is in great shape.
When she becomes president she gets to fly on another jet airplane.

Go Sarah Go!!!

Charities, christian and otherwise fund huge amounts of money for all kinds of things. Democrats and Republicans do this.

This particular case just happens to be an axe for one side to grind.

Remember the trip to new york for dinner that Obama took his wife on and a fancy meal ended up costing millions?

The Republicans were all over that.

It's just partizan paintball.

Sarah Palin is a rock star bigger than Obama you haters

Drill baby drill

I agree totally. Democrats and Republicans are two sides to the same dirty, tarnished coin. It is a coin that will no longer buy the voters proper representation because it is tainted with corruption, graft, and greed. We should trash every politician who needs to belong to criminal enterprises called the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. Instead we should elect persons who stand on their own two feet and make up their own minds.

Politicians who do nothing wrong will not be dogged constantly by ethics investigations.

Sarah is no longer in office and is in the private sector selling her book for a

profit welcome to free enterprise and capitalism. Sarah has not raised my taxes

for her and family to travel the country and sell her book. Sarah and her

book are a movement and a cause and people who believe in freedom, hope,

truth and family can get behind a grassroots American cause like this she

believes in with the people by the people. ^Y^

They are privately owned resources so they can do with them as they please. I know Progressives are jealous of people that have their own planes and the money to travel as they please, but it still doesn't give them the right to dictate how they are used. Maybe someday though if Obama and Progressives have their dream come true and America become a communist state.

Holy #e' Muslim! It's her money. This kind of dog doo is why she left her post as Governor.

One of us! one of us! one of us! her fans chant away.. yet she dupes everyone into thinking she's touring the country in her bus. We should have known that was beneath her, wouldn't it be beneath all of us regular folks too? Enter Sarah's private jet funded by donations from "Samaritan's Purse" a christian religious charity. Political madness indeed lol

Last weekend, a small notice in local newspapers revealed that Sarah Palin had stopped off in Montreat, NC, to visit the Graham family -- "evangelist" Billy Graham and his (reformed) cokehead son, Franklin Graham.

Franklin spent several years snorting coke, screwing everything in a skirt, and generally behaving like a good christian boy. Then, broke, he realized that his father's "evangelistic enterprise" was a real money-maker. So, ol' Franklin got religion, got forgiven, got saved, and GLORY HALLELUJAH -- Franklin is now the head of the Graham family business and the fortune of zillions of $$$$$.

Franklin runs an organization called "The Samaritan's Purse." Purse claims on their website to be an "International Christian relief and evangelism organization that provides spiritual and physical aid to victims of war, poverty, natural disaster, and disease."

Right.

Of course, an "international christian relief organization" can't function without a fleet of corporate airplanes.

And that brings us to Sarah Palin.

In her book tour, Palin claims that she's just like the rest of us, riding her tour bus from town to town.

Samaritan's Purse is flying Sarah around in one of its aircraft. She lands near her next book rally, gets on the bus, and rides into town on the bus.

Palin is flying around in a Beechcraft/King Air 300tail number N262SP (multi-engine, 11 passengers). The SP does not stand for Sarah Palin -- the plane is owned by Samaritans Purse.

This means that donations to SP are being used to haul Palin's carcass around. Wonder what the donors think of that?

Hmmm. Does this violate Samaritan's Purses 501c(3) status?

And -- get this -- I tried to check the flight activity for this airplane (N262SP) at Flightaware.com. The flight activity for this plane is blocked by the owner. Guess he doesn't want anyone to know where he is flying.

This is deceit and lies on so many levels it makes my head hurt to think about it.

But, then, you expected something different from a gang of biblethumpers??

it is her money so what....? Also, name a politician or famous person that does not do this when they travel.... cannot very well land the plane in downtown.... so go get a milk or kool aid and try not to allow the stuff to harden up there

If her book states grass root American cause and freedom then it would be shameful for every American. Reason for that is her book has many lies and distorted claims as explained in this "FACT" checking website.

Fact-checking Sarah Palin as she goes 'Rogue'

Religious people like this make me sick, why don't any of these people that go to church understand that their ideals are being used for money and to keep the religious elite in power. And those ideals are only your ideals becuase they brainwashed them into you since you were born.

You can still have faith and not follow the herd. Just be good person, you shouldnt need a building with a cross on it to tell you that.

Sarah Palin is a hypocrite and is only worshipped and followed by the religious masses. Nobody with an individual thought for themselves would vote for her. How can you want to take our country so many steps back by having her in office?

It's sad the way some people get so buggy about a woman they say they don't care about.

We just care about our country thats all^^

You REALLY sound deranged. I don't know if you've ever considered education, but if you ever do you should think about looking into Shakespeare. One of his great quotes was from a play that he wrote named Hamlet... "The lady doth protest too much, methinks."

I would be happy to explain this to you if you need me.

Have you read her book? How are you going to key in on what the 2

constantly adding too and changing proposed government run health care bills

state when both the Senate and House have different versions and your

writing a book. I do not read any lies like you do and the Fact Checking

website but there could be some misinterpretations on her part. I sense you do

not like Sarah Palin and do you keep track of what obama says registering

on the truth meter on a daily basis?
