To "pad" her regular salary, Palin submits some awfully unusual expense reports to her state. Travel expenses for living at your own home? http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/09/08/AR2008090803088.html?hpid=topnews

They had better send an IRS auditor to see if she is cheating on her tax returns by "writing off" these bogus travel expenses.

It's not maverick and not straight talk

Why should we wait for IRS. It might be OK by Alaska law- but it wouls shoot top h--- the talk she'e been talking. Now , it appears that she's OK in Alaska because she is just spent less than the crooks before her. I think, the American public should know and I hope a reporter will have the nerve to ask, also what about all the travel expenses for the family?

The article also says:

"The state finance director, Kim Garnero, said Alaska law exempts the governor's office from elaborate travel regulations. Said Leighow: "The governor is entitled to a per diem, and she claims it."

Can you imagine what she will write off during the campaign. I bet the Republican Party paid for her children and her daughter's boyfriend or the state of Alaska to attend the convention. I am sure her daughter's boyfriend did not pay the bill.

Can you imagine her travel per diam in Washington.
