Sarah Palin the entitlement monarch

I do not wish to turn this blog into a gossip venue, but with Sarah Palin publicly kooking out every chance she gets, it's becoming difficult not to. Palin chose to become a public figure, after all, so the people deserve better from her.

After Failin' Palin stood up about 100 rain-soaked followers during a book tour appearance in Indiana, you'd think that would be the end of her career. But nope! The self-serving megalomaniac remains undeterred!

Now she's done pretty much the same thing to GOP leaders in Salt Lake City. The bigger outrage though is the way she treated a local hairdresser.

The hairdresser received a frantic 8 AM phone call recently informing her that Palin was in town and needed her hair done. Now. Immediately. This minute.

So she had to rush down to Palin's swanky hotel and do the failed veep candidate's hair. This despite the fact that the hairdresser had already scheduled a dentist appointment for her child that morning. Because of Palin's impromptu demand, she had to have her husband take off work to take the child to the dentist.

Forcing a hairdresser to take time out of her life and forcing her husband to miss work was bad enough. But Sarah Palin's treatment of the hairdresser was outrageous.

Palin's staff told the hairdresser she was not allowed to speak to Palin unless spoken to first. And then Palin and her staffers didn't even pay the hairdresser!

Also, the Palin team was supposed to pay the hairdresser's parking fees - but they went back on this promise too.

It gets sillier.

Customers at the Costco where Palin had her Salt Lake City book-signing noticed that the store seemed to be out of tomatoes. When they asked the store manager about it, he said the Palin team had ordered Costco to take tomatoes off the shelves for a few hours. They claimed Palin had been pelted by tomatoes at another appearance.

Did the ghost of Leona Helmsley possess Sarah Palin?
