SARAH PALIN’S EUGENE SPEECH–FREE–TO TAXPAYERS, THAT IS

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin speaks at a Eugene GOP fundraiser tomorrow night (Fri).  Her security bill will be paid by the Lane County Republicans, who expect to clear about $190,ooo from the rally.  Eugene Police say overtime costs for a public appearance of this kind could cost up to $20,000–but Palin’s speech is counted as a private event, so the GOP will foot the bill for cops and private security people.  If you’re quick, you might still get a $100 ticket that will get you into an overflow room to watch the speech on big screen TV.
