Where are many of these infamous clothes now? In trash bags!
...

NewMajority is reporting that roughly $180,000 worth of clothing worn by Sarah Palin during her Republican vice presidential bid is stuffed in trash bags at the Republican National Committee headquarters in Washington D.C.

Palin promised to donate her wardrobe to charity following the campaign, and she did give the clothes to the RNC so they could handle the donation process, according to NewMajority. But apparently, the RNC did no such thing, as the clothes are still in their headquarters in garbage bags.

1. Beautiful. How very GOP. I wanted to say

something about how nice it would be if Ms. Fascist Cutie-Pie was stuffed in a trash bag, but goshers, that would be like shooting fish in a barrel, dontcha know. Or wolves from a helicopter.

2. Maybe they are just saving them

for 2012.

[I Have A Dream]

18. Oooo... I think that you might be on to something there.

[Ms. Toad]

6. Betya they could pick up the phone and any # of charities would .....

..... come and pick them up. The Kidney Foundation in Columbus, OH does
this all the time ...... A jobs program would take 'em too.

"They" are so with out shame it is not funny .... I bet that RNC women pick
over the clothes themselves.

[beac]

24. My theory is that they were hoping enough time would pass without anyone asking about them that they

could auction off the clothes to pay off some RNC campaign debt instead of giving them to an actual charity.

[mascarax]

25. I agree w/your theory - thought the same thing

They'll go for the money from an auction.

Hey, they need to continue to help fund Norm Coleman's recount.

[Aviation Pro]

5. The RNC is waiting for Sarah Dumbass to be a footnote......

...before they put her shit on E-Bay.

[treestar]

7. Weren't they supposed to go to charity?

On another note, it reminds me of the dust up over the flags supposedly thrown out after the Democratic Convention.

[Dr.Phool]

8. Oh, lighten up!!!

They probably folded them up, or just kinda wadded them up neatly before they crammed them into the bags.

[Hugin]

12. Sure! I bet they even ironed the underwear!

[Frisbee]

35. I'm guessing grampy McCain kept them...

[Gregorian]

9. Ya can't skin a moose in heels.

Ya can't shoot a wolf in ermine.

[jaysunb]

10. They should give those clothes back to her.

She earned them and much more.

Thank you Sarah, for helping make Barack Obama POTUS.

[acmavm]

21. Upon serious reflection I agree with you. She does have 'em coming.

She was like the poster child for 'What if...?'

[Raksha]

47. Good point! n/t

[whistler162]

11. Didn't the Republicans throw a tizzy when someone

found and then stole several trash bags of rolled up American flags after the Denver convention?

[Leo 9]

13. What's this?

I click on the link, but just get a small x in a blank box.

[chill_wind]

14. Let's see.... the Election was over by Nov 5....

That's GOP efficiency for you.

They're probably thinking about raffling them them at a private fundraiser.
Lord knows she cost them big.

[BumRushDaShow]

15. This should be a Drudge headline.

He seems to have missed it. I wonder why?

[angrycarpenter]

16. waiting for someone

To throw a lavish charity auction dinner and sell them to a bunch of rich ladies and give the money left over to some charity that a bunch of selfish jerks can agree on. They are looking to get something in return for donating them.

[ejbr]

17. As pissed off as their donors are, all I have to ask is

how hard would it be to find some wooden ("NO WIRE HANGERS!!") hangers to place these clothes until a decision was made. For fuck's sake, the GOP really don't care about anybody, EVEN thsir own donors!

[George_Bailey]

19. They should've sent the clothes to Alaska

and put Palin in the trash bag.

[Life Long Dem]

20. It's their way of saying, raise my taxes!

[happygoluckytoyou]

22. IN A RELATED STORY... woman resembling sarah palin arrives at RNC to pick up bag of unclaimed trash.

[TrogL]

23. Several charities here have dropoff boxes

There's one about a mile from here at the Canadian Tire. It looks like a large mailbox and you just open the chute and dump it in.

[Cheap_Trick]

26. Who'd want to buy them? They've got that Palin stink on them that no detergent is going to get out.

Burning them might not even do the job.

[Alcibiades]

29. I want the panties

ummmm.

[Hugin]

30. Those have already been slated to go to the FR fund raiser.

:snark:

[Texasgal]

40. *snarf*

[Thothmes]

39. Why?

[Vektor]

44. Maybe he has a vermin infestation in his house?

The stench that lies with those rancid drawers is the only sure way to kill cockroaches, the world's most intrepid pest.

[Vektor]

43. The front is probably all stretched out.

Because I doubt that there were ever girl parts in there.

With a face like that, I imagine the nether-regions are, well, a little "bulkier."

[LiberalLovinLug]

27. They WANT to donate them

Its just that they can't find any Republican non-profit organization that helps out the disadvantaged in society.

[lonestarnot]

28. Hmmmf. reflection of the party, a trash heap!

[ElsewheresDaughter]

31. here's a pic of Palins garbage bags....

[samsingh]

32. waste of money

[Endangered Specie]

34. Is this really a suprise, after all, chairty is 'Communicm' to the GOP

[Frisbee]

36. This report is completely untrue....

Rudy Giuliani picked them up some time ago, and he looks simply smashing in them!

[McCamy Taylor]

41. Maybe she is afraid someone will find out what size she wears.

[Raine]

42. They're undergoing decontamination in those

bags.

[Catshrink]

45. Where's the red "Thriller" jacket?

How much you wanna bet she kept that? The jacket and a whip should keep Tawd in line.
