Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has billed taxpayers for 312 nights spent in her own home during her first 19 months in office, charging a "per diem" allowance intended to cover meals and incidental expenses while traveling on state business.That really could be called dishonest. You know, it seems like billing the state for expenses would be for actual expenses away from home, not paying yourself to stay at your own home.
Something's rotten in the state of Alaska.
Actually, how can I get in on a deal like that? I'm staying home tonight, as every night, and if the state would like to pay me for it, so much the better!
