Students Find Palin Speech Contract In Trash

SACRAMENTO (AP) ―
Sarah Palin will get first-class airfare for two and three rooms at a luxury hotel when she gives a speech in June for a university foundation.

And organizers better not forget to stock her lectern with two water bottles and bendable straws,

The details of Palin's contract with the California State University, Stanislaus Foundation were contained in five pages of the document retrieved from a campus trash bin by students who heard administrators might be shredding documents related to the speech.

State Sen. Leland Yee, D-San Francisco, provided copies of the paperwork Tuesday.

Among other perks, Palin will fly first class -- if she flies commercial. If not, "the private aircraft MUST BE a Lear 60 or larger ...," the contract specifies. She also must be provided with a suite and two single rooms in a deluxe hotel.

CSU Students Find Palin's Contract In Trash
California State Senator Pushes For Disclosure

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- The flare-up over Sarah Palin's scheduled speech on a California State University campus has taken a fresh twist after students uncovered a portion of her confidential contract.

The document, which the students said they recovered from a campus Dumpster, does not include her compensation for the June 25 speech to the CSU Stanislaus Foundation.

It does specify other requirements to be provided by the foundation. They include round-trip, first-class airfare for two, a suite and two rooms at a deluxe hotel, and transportation via SUVs or black town cars.

It also requires that Palin's lectern be stocked with water bottles and bendable straws.

The CSU Stanislaus students said they acted on a tip that documents were being shredded inside the main administration building last Friday, a day that campus staff was supposed to be on furlough.

1. Ah, the rock star rider.

"The following colors of M&Ms are not acceptable...." :D

2. A woman of the people...

At least Lonesome Rhodes, the one from the movie, not Glenn Beck, got out to mingle with the people now and then...

[Bluebear]

3. Black town cars to match her leather bustier, never white. Flavored water, scented candles...

a real rock star she is.

4. Good place for anything to do with that money grabber, in the trash. What a

charade this woman is, milking all the money she can from the fools...

[damntexdem]

5. That's where it belongs.

And she should have to pay CSU to be allowed to speak on campus.

;-)

6. Seems like a reasonable request...

You really don't want those squally babies in the same room with you when you're trying to relax...

For Q&A, the questions are to be collected from the audience in advance, pre-screened and a designated representative shall ask questions directly of the Speaker.”


* Accommodations are to include “a one-bedroom suite and two single rooms in a deluxe hotel” as well as a “laptop computer and printer (fully stocked with paper) and high speed internet” and “all meals and incidentals.”

10. Gotta have high speed internet

That midget porn doesn't download itself, right Todd?

12. Random Birther: "But.. but.. she's just like us.. poor and stupid right?"

Sorry random birther - you're only half right! :rofl:

[HipChick]

14. I wonder if they are still sending her money...

:rofl:

13. Shredding documents with crucial info? That's really professional right there.

CSU is running a multimillion-dollar deficit and cutting darn near everything on campus and yet is scared to let the public know how much it paid some airhead political hack from Alaska to speak at a commencement. It seems that CSU Stanislaus cares more about the local hicks who'd be drooling and rubbing the fly of their pants during her speech rather than the graduating students who are heck more informed and intelligent than Failin' Palin.
