What Not to Wear

One of my favorite shows is What Not to Wear on the cable channel TLC. For those of you out there who don't know what What Not to Wear is about (which is probably most of you), it is a reality television show where Stacy and Clinton, the show's hosts, take a person who has no fashion sense, i.e. everyones' grandmother or great aunt Irma, and give them $5,000 for a shopping spree. But wait, there's a catch. Irma has to give all of her clothes to Stacy and Clinton, and watch they throw the clothes in a trash can. But, in the end, Stacy and Clinton go shopping with Irma and find the perfect clothes for her. Trust me, you will not recognize Irma when you see her again.

With that in mind, imagine my shock when I read that the RNC gave my girl, Sarah, a make over. They bought her and her family a whole new wardrobe. But when the RNC shops they do it in style. Price tag for Sarah et. al.? $150,000!!!

Great Aunt Irma--$5,000 to make her look good. Sarah Palin--$150,000 to make her look good. Maybe the RNC should have asked Stacy and Clinton and save $145,000!
