Sarah Palin spent $290,000 on clothes and grooming

It emerged that $42,000 was paid to a hair stylist for the Alaska governor, as well as $68,400 to Amy Strozzi, a make-up artist nominated for an Emmy for her work on the reality show "So You Think You Can Dance?"

Officials at the Republican National Committee admitted earlier this week that $30,000 (£18,000) in "campaign accessories" would be reported soon, in addition to the $150,000 (£92,000) spent at designer shops on clothes for Mrs Palin and her family during the campaign that was already known about and damaged the 44-year-old mother of five's homely image. via The Telegraph

Well, well... US$290,000 is peanuts based on some Singaporeans' standards :P

In case you are wondering who this 15 year old Candian kid is, he is Omar Khadr. In 2002, when Khadr was 15, he was accused of killing a US soldier in Afghanistan. He has since been detained in Guantanamo Bay.
