Reading a Newspaper...




I found an interesting news about the political campaing in USA ans it says the following:


The Republican Party spent on Sarah Palin $150,000 for clothing, shoes and make up, this amount of money is shocking but is necessary?
Some people say yes, because is legal and appropriate for the campaign to show a well dress candidate, however the McCain campaign mentioned that the clothing after the elections will be destined for charity. On the other hand, some people mentioned that is a waste of money.


In the article Scafidi says,. "When you see that number in the middle of a credit crunch" and consider the irony of "spending enormous amounts to reach ordinary people" for whom $150,000 is probably more than a year's salary, the spree is "a political disaster."


I think that all the money wasted in Sarah Palin is unnecesary, because is more important invest in health and education rather than clothes, but some people don't worry about, what can we do? just wait what will happen in the elections.


New words learnt:


1. waste: miss money or time in unnecesary matters.


2. spree: is when a person go to a store to buy something.
