Alaskan taxpayers... YOU paid for Sarah Palin's Tanning Bed!

[npincus]

Mel Brooks said it best: "It's good to be the king!"


Tanning beds of the kind used by tanning salons can cost upwards of $35,000 each.

After receiving a tip from a reader who reported some interesting claims about the governor, including that her mansion counted with its own private tanning bed, Narco News dialed those Alaska officials that should be in-the-know and received nervous replies that would not confirm nor deny, at first, that the Alaska Governor’s Mansion now includes a private tanning bed.

1. Hopefully she got it as an unreported gift. Kind of ironic with McCain's melonoma.

2. Something else to kick, she's about as corrupt as I've seen in a while

[central scrutinizer]

3. gee, would that make her an elitist?

nobody I know can afford tanning salons.

[progressoid]

4. Snort

Makes a haircut look like chump change.

5. k+r n/t

6. but come on...give her a break...

7. Follow the money. This could be devastating. nt

10. yes, this will really chip away at her teflon image

the low info voters whose eyes glaze over when discussing issues, will resent this.

[npincus]

11. talk about Baked Alaska...

[smb]

8. What For?

Why would she install a tanning bed at the Governor's Mansion when she spends all her time collecting per diems for being at home?

[nolabels]

9. Probably more like the lower 48 states are

My wild ass guess would be that Alaska is parasitic when it comes to consumption and production of GDP and tax revenue, kind of like Texas but a lot more so per capita

12. Palin melanoma == schadenfreude
