The Palin Fund

Seems that being an unethical politician isn't easy. First there's all that suppression of that voice inside your head that tells you you shouldn't be doing what you're doing. Then there's the self delusion (possibly including drinking) you need to engage in to tell you that you're right to act this way. Finally, there's all those damned legal bills that pile up cause some lawyer and judges got a bug up their butt because you run your state like a catty junior high writ large. That last place is where we find Sarah Palin. And she needs cash fast!

Gov. Sarah Palin owes more than a half million dollars to an Anchorage law firm that has defended her against ethics complaints, and she may create a legal fund to pay the bill, she said Friday.

Legal bills have mounted fighting complaints that she called partisan, false and frivolous, starting with "the politically motivated Troopergate probe," Palin said in a written response to questions.

She said the legal bills all stem from her actions as governor.
...
"On August 29, it seems the political landscape changed in Alaska. Now, it seems in order to do this job as Governor, with the political blood sport some are playing today, only the independently wealthy or those willing to spend their income on legal fees to defend their official actions in office ... can serve," Palin said in the written response to Daily News questions.

Yes...this is a populist issue, Sarah. Soon only rich politicians will be able to pay off their own legal bills that arise from their own malfeasance. I think the only solution is to get rid of ethics investigations. Or there's that other solution...what is it again...oh yeah: stop engaging in ethically bankrupt actions. That will probably cut down on the legal bills. I might also just hire cheaper lawyers, because these expensive, big-city Juneau lawyers don't seems to be able to help you win any of these ethics investigations. That probably has something to do with the brazen nature of your infractions.

So if you want to help Sarah out, I'm sure she'll have a PayPal set up soon. Only you can help her fight those rotten sons of bitches who have the audacity to point out her numerous ethical lapses.
