Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has billed taxpayers for 312
 nights spent in her own home in Wasilla during her first 19
 months in office.  In other words, she gets paid her regular
 salary plus a per diem allowance to grind up caribou for the
 yummy hot dogs she frequently prepares for her family. If we
 all could double-dip into the public purse like Sarah does, we
 might vote Republican, too.
