Alaska Democrat Wants Sarah Palin to Take it All Off

There's a new controversy surrounding Alaska Governor Sarah Palin's clothes, but this time, the price-tag is considerably lower. An Alaska Democrat wants the Governor to take off any clothes that bear the "Arctic Cat" logo while she's on the clock. From ADN.com:

Linda Kellen Biegel, a Democrat who blogs under the name "Celtic Diva," said in her complaint that Palin "improperly used her position and state resources to serve her personal financial interests by being a walking billboard for Arctic Cat, a private for-profit company and family business sponsor."

A photo on the state Web site shows Palin in a bright white, green and black Team Arctic jacket kicking off the start of this year's Iron Dog. A photo of her in the Team Arctic jacket and matching pants accompanied an article on Todd Palin and the Iron Dog in Sports Illustrated online.

Palin responds in the ADN article, but let me save some time: This is weak frakkin' sauce if I've ever tasted it, and it only serves to marginalize legitimate opposition to Sarah Palin.

She's on the clock 24/7, so is she supposed to cut the logos off of all of her clothes, and walk around wearing what amounts to a glorified doily?

There are lots of good reasons to oppose Sarah Palin on the substance. Complaints like this serve only to help her lump all criticism into this wingnut category.
