More on Palin's "diva demands"

     This non-story is really getting unbelievable. Jerry Brown, Dem running for governor, is now INVESTIGATING the Sarah Palin "controversy." He says the state has a right to know how much    Palin is being paid, even though she is being paid through private funding. The university claims that the office where the papers were found was broken into, while the students are shocked, SHOCKED that the university would accuse such innocent little people as STUDENTS as doing anything UNDERHANDED. Now a state senator from San Francisco has his panties in a knot, "to explain Palin's visit requirements, as described in the contract, of a hotel suite, first-class airfare or a private Lear jet, pre-screened questions and "bendable straws" for her water bottles at the campus lectern." 
     Can you imagine Gore having to explain why he doesn't want to throw back his head to guzzle water at a lecturn? Or fly coach? This is disgusting; unfortunately for the dopes throwing all this stuff at Palin, the reality is that all they are doing is making her more popular and keeping her in the public eye.

A five-page portion of the contract, which detailed some of Palin's stipulations for her speech, was widely publicized this week after students said they discovered it in a campus Dumpster. But the school says it was stolen from a campus recycling bin.

Brown, a Democrat who was governor of California from 1975 to 1983 and is running for governor again this year, said his office launched its probe to ensure "prudent financial stewardship" at a time when universities face decreased funding and increased student fees. He maintained the investigation has nothing to do with Palin, but critics say it appears to be motivated by partisan politics -- and not fiscal responsibility.
