How am I suppose to know Sarah Palin is 'frugal' what has she done that showed being 'Frugal'
She left the city of Wasilla in debt to build a multi-million dollar sports complex. Was she thinking of getting an NHL expansion team or something.

She used state taxpayer money to fly her kids all over Alaska and even to places like New York City

She 'claims' she rejected the Bridge to Nowhere but still kept the money to build a ROAD to the bridge to nowhere and did this while New Orleans was drowning in Katrina.

So you know, if she happens to be 'frugal' please someone define where and when this has happened because I'm not seeing it with her actions. I mean just because she brought a Wal-Mart to Wasilla (helping put private store owners out of business because they can't complete) I'm not sure seeing her 'frugality' anywhere.

2. Republicans are always frugal when it comes to spending...
on anyone outside of their family and political cronies. They have conferences at the Ritz Carlton hotels around the world discussing the lazy, shiftless workers that want food, shelter and health care.

3. $arah Palin got rich
from handouts, from Oil company checks, to RNC clothing expenditures, to free labor/materials for her 'modest' home. It's ridiculous that anyone could look at her as an example of a middle-class success story.

4. She recycles the same old stories and lies
That shows a frugality of thought.
