That hefty speaking fee, reportedly $100k, convinced our Sarah that the Tea Party Convention was a much more worthwhile organization with which to align herself. Well, luckily she apparently got half that fee up front cause the rest of it’s looking a little shaky these days.Well, there's always SarahPAC buying more of her book... or her magazine...or her fuzzy moose slippers...or her wolf-hunting helicopter playset...or her Fisher-Price family complete with Action Progressive Blogger Blocking Todd.
Even FauxNews is admitting the Convention is in trouble.
The first National Tea Party Convention is slated for the end of this week, but several big names and events have cancelled after questions rose about the high fees to attend and the treasure chest where the money will end up.Not our Sarah though!
Over the past few weeks, several sponsors, speakers and volunteers have backed out of the convention, scheduled Feb. 4-6 at Opryland Hotel in Nashville, Tenn., after learning that the convention organizer, Tea Party Nation, is a for-profit company. Some activists and outsiders alike are questioning the motives of Tea Party Nation founder Judson Phillips.
Oh, you betcha I’m going to be there,” Palin told Fox News. “I’m going to speak there because there are people traveling from many miles away to hear what that tea party movement is all about.”And besides, how else am I gonna get the rest of my dough, goshdarnit!!
Oh sure, you laugh now. Give it a year. Action figures.
