Bobert, I think you should change the thread title.

The Repub did not say the grandmother was faking, he kept saying Obama should not be using an expensive plane to make the trip.

It was part of the (petty to my mind) discussion of Sarah Palin's wardrobe.

I say, give the woman a break! She recently had a baby. If the campaign wants to buy her some fashionable clothes, let them do it. It is a non-issue.
