Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey

Picture of the Johnston family (and Tank Jones), arriving at Palmer courthouse on Thursday.
If Tank were standing side by side with Levi, then Levi would be staring at Tank's chest. The man is huge.
I have this really sneaky suspicion that they promised Sherry a deal if she pled but that they're going to renege and throw everything they can at her now that she's pled guilty.
I would suggest anything but what mlaiuppa said in the first comment here. I think it's pretty obvious that Palin has backed off and is going to make a deal with the Johnstones for their promise of silence. It's just too obvious that Mercedes has an ax to grind and her slipups which caused the feud were not entirely accidental. She's the brains in this clan of hillbillies. I also believe that the house arrest which was suggested will be mommy's sentence because that's the deal with Palin that the Johnstones are going for. Palin will pull strings and see that it's done that way in exchange for Mercedes' cooperation. Then Palin will be able to hold about a five year suspended sentence over their heads for as long as is necessary for Palin to escape her lying dilemma.
And fwiw, in the picture it's Mercedes leading the pack and her determination shows on her face. The end result will not be Palin losing as much as she is just going to be forced to play fair. Payment for her lies which will come back to get her eventually with a little luck.
mlaippa- They wouldn't dare throw the book at Sherry. Mercedes has complete control over this little game. The rest of the Johnstones are too dumbassed to know that they hold the reins.
I'm so glad the Johnson Family has Tank & Rex on their side! Tank called in the Smurkes show recently and that ass kept calling him "hank"! Then he relized who he was talking to...Tank used to be a bouncer! Yikes, He could flatten Smurke, he suddenly got respect! hah!
I just can't get the notion out of my head that Sherry J. was set up to get her out of the picture because she wanted visitation with Trig.
And I think there's a good chance Levi was set up to lose the job on the slope.
Both events happened within about a week...the arrest right before Tripp's birth was announced and the 'kids are working hard' news release just after.
I liked the comments from Rex Butler in the NYT articles. He was dropping some hints.... but not letting them see all his cards. He's letting the Palin's just ' think about it'. We know how paranoid they are. They may do more damage to themselves than Rex or Levi could. Rex is playing it like a Chess game.... with 3 or 4 moves ahead. he doesn't need to be boastful and brag like Palin. Bob Poe talks about Palins narcissism on Mudflats as well. Turn up the heat. Gryphen.... could You interview Bob Poe for your blog...?
Why don't Alaskans step up to the plate? My friend has a camera that can make clear videos in low light. The technology is amazing and the prices are reasonable. Wasilla needs more citizen journalists and less kiss butt attitude. Your diseases can spread. The MSM has bought into all the fluffy bull.
Oxycontin named as new drug of choice in Wasilla Alaska http://www.inquisitr.com/12705/oxycontin-named-as-new-drug-of-choice-in-wasilla-alaska/ It is irresponsible for the Valley to ignore that. There is not one person in the area to do more comprehensive and informative reporting? If Wasilla was the Meth Capital of Alaska it is now the Oxycontin Capital of Alaska. That would be news in an open society. If you're not an addict you are enabling when you keep silent.
To the chickenshit anon who keeps posting here... Instead of dissing Gryphen and defending GINO mark these words. Proverbs 10:10 He who winks the eye causes trouble, And a babbling fool will be ruined.Gryphen has dropped many "hints" if you can't see where that's heading I hope you have GPS in your car b/c you certainly can't read a map! lol! Dennis Zaki has headlines on his news. I have been dreaming about this for quite sometime, I see Big headlines! It is being tracked astrologically. Shannyn Moore wrote on her facebook, that she needs to be "distracted" for something to talk about on her show (tongiht) b/c what she knows...She can't talk about! Be patient... grasshoppers! :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gryphen for some reason I can't cut and paste on your comments?? Be patient. GINO is done. stick a fork in her, toast, whatever. Her house of cards, will fall....
How amazing is it that the survival of the entire planet may rest on the shoulders of a Wasilla teenager named Levi? What I mean is: Levi, write that book and expose Palin for the fraud, hypocrite and dangerous theocrat that she is. God DOES work in mysterious ways. Save us Team Levi!
Promising Sherry a deal would mean that Palin bribed or coerced many people-police, detectives, prosecutors, a judge! Do you really think Palin would be so bold or stupid? Any of those would be a federal offense I would think. I can't imagine she's that dumb but I don't know about these things and I don't live up there. I am sure her lawyer knows the score though and would hopefully tell the right people. I am hoping that now this is settled, Levi will next make a huge book deal. I hope he does, they cannot keep him from his chiild for telling the truth. Once he has a signed deal maybe the truth will come out. This is my guess and what I hope for. I really cannot stand Palin anymore and she needs to be stopped. She is dangerous because of her narcissm combined with ambition and a total lack of insight. In other words, she is nuts!
And then I remember less than a year ago hearing about Troopergate. The thing that impressed me was that Todd had his own phone and table in the governor's office, even though he was not elected nor appointed to any office. His threatening telephone calls were recorded, and he sounded like an inforcer, trying to get his former brother-in-law fired. When it failed, they muscled out Wooten. How quickly we have forgotten about these strong-arm tactics, and what they might be capable of in regard to the Johnstons, or anyone who might know and say anything. The only differece: today more people know about it, record and report it and show it for what it is-- bullying of the worst kind. Watch your back and set your phasers to "stun."
I agree with Crystalwolf and others who have your back, Gryphen. Don't listen to the anon trolls asking you to proceed in any other way than you think is appropriate. I, too, have been dreaming of the day when this nightmare John McCain thrust upon us is DONE!!!
To say I cannot wait is an understatement ... but wait I shall because I trust you and the AK bloggers.
Have a wonderful Memorial Day holiday ....
P.S. Oh ... one more thing Bristol and Sarah ... try to stay away from the blogs and play with your children/grandchildren ... you don't have to drug them when they are not on display (or shouldn't, at least). Pffffffffft!!!!
These people have been set up, Curiouser. We may never know exactly how. i don't know the time schedule, but Levi and bristol were to be cashing in with the People Magazine for photos. It turned out to be a campaign to only promote Bristol. A promotion that claims she is independent. Infact, her father has been hovering over her and she talks like a dependent child.
Bllllaaaahhhhh, Levi is a pussy, is not too bright, and won't even stand up for his rights as a father. But don't fear, Mercedes has the balls in that family and she's going to keep Palin honest on this thing. Then some because it's obvioius that Mercedes hates the stupid bitch. The picture posted tells it all. Levi shows the terror he is experiencing of facing the unknown and Sherry is just giving everyone a drug crazed look. But Mercedes sees this as a game to be won.
As for Palin's decpetions blog, it's practically dried up now. Their biggest problem is they don't have the confidence in themselves to understand that there is no secret left to be revealed. Bristol is obviously the mother of Trig, Sarah faked the pregnancy, and all those who will ever accept that as the truth have already accepted it. The rabid righties will never relent and admit it of course.
Will the facts be enough to destroy Sarah Palin? If they are not then Americans deserve what Sarah will bring because they will have proven that they are not bright enough to see the reality of the vicious bitch.
Curiouser--I also believe that Sherry was set up. I'm very curious to see what sentence the judge gives her.
If she has to serve time in prison, she'll really have a difficult time if she needs a Dr. to handle her medical devices 2X week. Prison health services are a joke. So any prison time will be way, way worse for a sick person than it would be for a healthy person and Sherry's health could deteriorate.
Don't be silly, Sherry's health problems have been dreamed up to keep her out of jail. Or more likely, to make it look like she should stay out of jail.
Even though Dan Fagan pisses me off sometimes there's a great article he wrote in the ADN about Sarah Palin. I couldn't get the URL to copy but just go the the local columnist section. It's great.
Thanks The straight goods! for telling it like it is. Levi is a pussy. Mercede made a similar comment about Levi in a post she made while in FL back in January. You remember she said something about Bristol not letting her see her 'nefu' and Levi having his head in his butt. Yea, Mercede was saying that Levi was taking Bristol's side and wouldn't demand that Bristol share the baby. Sad! Also remember Mercede saying on LKL that Bristol would not let Levi talk to her for the whole summer and that Levi stupid ass actually did not talk to his blood sister because Bristol told him not to.
Levi is whipped and he is keeping Mercede from telling the whole truth about this scandal. He has threatened to eliminate Mercede from his life if she talks too much. Remember how he would stare her down during the Tyra and LKL interviews when she was about to say too much.
You know damn well that Mercede wants her brother in her life and she does not want to piss him off. Hell, she has his name tattooed on her wrist. Now that's some crazy kind of LOVE if you ask me.
Straight goods, what makes you think Sherry's health problems "ARE DREAMED up"? Unfornately it is more common than not... that many woman who have have (my words) "botched" hysterectomies have chronic pain afterwords, how dare you presume otherwise! God forbid you ever have chronic pain! And yes unless you live in a bubble it can happen in a heartbeat! A auto accident, fall off a ladder, a number of things. So unless you've walked a mile in someone's else moccosins...STFU!
crystalwolf, that's the spirit! I know all about pain and I know that many have cronic pain too but in this case I'm just using logic to come to the conclusion that the pain being talked about is a whole lot different from any real pain Sherry has. This is not an uncommon ploy to use when negotiating a sentence with a judge. I take it one step further and say that Palin has the power to make it so for Sherry with a convincing reference to support Sherry as an aquaintance of hers.
Whether or not Palin had anything to do with having Sherry busted for drug trafficking is beyond my knowledge and also beyond what I would speculate on. Having said that, of course it's quite feasible because the timing is right. So now we have a scenario where Palin spare's Mercedes' mommy in exchange for Mercedes cooperation and silence. It should work fine except for the fact that Mercedes is determined to do in Palin and she will most likely surrepticiously pass the word around about the truth. The trouble is, and this is the important part, unless she goes public on the MSM with the truth then nothing will change in the whole country learning the truth in a format that they can't deny.
Use your brain crystalwolf, and tell those dimwits over at PD to start using their brains too. We know the truth and to entertain those who want to continue to obfuscate the truth are only pushing the cause backwards.
Anon 5:41 a.m., essentially we agree on most of it but I would be cautious about Levi having any control whatsoever on Mercedes. That girl has become very mature and clever over all this and I don't think Levi could influence her in the least. What we saw was more likely Levi keeping in mind what he (and they) were told to say by their laywer and Levi worrying that Mercedes would slip up and not follow instructions. In my opinion Mercedes knew exactly what she was saying and was going to say and there never was a danger of her slipping and spilling the beans. If anybody stumbles it will be Levi. The mother isn't capable of mumbling more than a couple of words because she knows she doesn't have the ability to be a convincing liar.
Yes, Mercedes love for Levi is some crazy thing but isn't it a commendable thing! It's something else that shows Mercedes tremendous power. IMHO that girl is going places unless Palin does something vicious to destroy her. Levi is nothing but a fu--ing loser.
Timing is vital. I trust Gryphen to continue what he is doing with attention to detail and integrity. He'll know when the time is right. I try not to set my self up, que sera, sera, it keeps the anxious me in check. The trolls that come here don't show any troll style anymore. I hardly notice them.
Mercedes is the pack leader. What's her price? Mercedes would like to talk. How tempting is the Sarah money/deal? There are no doubt things that both families want to keep quiet and they believe that working a deal is the best chance. Plus they can claim they are doing it for the babies and all look like a wonderful family.
I believe the Johnston's could do better on their own when it comes to money plus keep their freedom and independence. Mercedes could definitely launch a career to pay her way through school, she would not have to sacrifice her free speech, Levi could get into a better situation and Sherry could be more comfortable. IMO that would be the best for the babies for the long run. I don't know Sherry's remaining charge? I'd like to see the law go after the doctors that string these unfortunate people out. When communities step up and face what drugs are doing to their children and society things will improve, the road they are on now is full of doom, gloom and cheap tricks. I'd have more respect if the authorities charged people with child endangerment. Some first time drug offenders should be in jail, but I'm not for all first time offenders going to jail. The way it's done in the Valley is what it is. Here people write letters and talk to the Judge.
I don't see that either dysfunctional family is ready to put the children first. They both have too much to hide and are busy with their own self -centered obsession. Judges deal with drug families all the time and children live around the drama, when the authorities are involved they have some chance to be watched and can possibly be safe.
Whether or not Sherry's medical condition is real won't be the issue if she has doctors vouching for her. She looks in bad enough shape just from being addicted, however, it all came about. As much denial as is coming out of the Valley, I don't have many illusions about that place. My heart goes out to the few good souls who are not in the gutter with their kings and queens of corruption.
I can't think of anything worse then a deal with a devil. All the strings attached and having your tongue cut out for life.
I hope the Johnston family is not even contemplating selling out. Sherry is zonked, if her lawyer gives her good advice and she goes against it, a lawyer is to do as the client says.
How did she get scurvy, is that from chronic drug use? To have shame about drug use is normal. Whether it is doctors over medicating, youthful indiscretions or other. The Johnston family is not alone. They will not believe how beautiful the world is when they can stop hiding and purge all that crap. People who live in shame can be easily manipulated.
Levi wants to hunt and he is looks like a romantic for a "good" relationship with Bristol. I think Mercedes refers to his blind spots as he is not doing well. Levi, if I could tell you, I'd say listen to your sister. Your family will sink or swim with the decisions you all are to make. I'd like to hear that you are doing your DNA tests and being your own person. That would show the world that you are capable and do love your baby or babies. TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS. That's when you will be a fit parent. Wake up and notice how your son Tripp already looks like he is abused, as parents will do to get a child to keep quiet. I'm sure you know about the obsession and addiction dynamics in both families. If you care for Bristol, give her the space to do what she must. She acts like she has been brainwashed by a cult, it is sad, but you are powerless to help her. Especially, if you are acting like a sap.
Books need to be dealt with through agents and publishers and not by telling the public anything. Butler knows how much to say at this time. I can believe there is an iceberg coming. I have no clue when or which one. Who knows what the Johnstons believe about that. The Johnstons have their experiences and what Sarah would want them to believe, they could put a few cracks in her stories.
Sarah has magical thinking and she only has to believe in Sarah and her religion. Something does seem to be up with her. She could be noticing some chinks in her armor or ominous signs on her horizon. She looks like hell these days.
Any possibility the tinfoil theory suggested over at The Mudflats that Trig is the child of Sherry J and Track P? In a weird twisted way this kinda works . . .
Rex and Tank are tops. I hope the Johnstons are listening to them.
Britney Spears is an old Big Leaguer, advised by pros. so much for listening when you are strung out or an emotional wreck.
People will have opinions, until they show us something more. All in good time. It is not only the Johnstons, the whole Valley seems to be in denial about drugs. Their silence is deafening. It's not like people haven't seen the now private MySpace accounts and party pictures. Mercede has her teen alcohol record. Those issues often run in families. I'm disgusted with everyone ignoring the babies. Especially, when the babies look drugged. It's more disgusting when people ignore babies well being and then claim to love them so much. I do hope that doesn't happen, but there are no signs that the Johnstons are anymore able to face up to some realities. I've known many a parent that was hooked on medication. It's legal and it is sad, but their minds turn to mush.
They do look like a dysfunctional family and in major denial, I hope not the latter. Mercede looks determined and like she could be a force. I don't think their dysfunction is anywhere near the Palins. I want to be able to have more faith in the Johnstons, but they just aren't sending out that vibe yet.
Little baby Tripp looks zonked too and no one wants to notice. I'm waiting to see if he and Trig get a chance in life.
Anonymous said... Any possibility the tinfoil theory suggested over at The Mudflats that Trig is the child of Sherry J and Track P? In a weird twisted way this kinda works. Well, THIS theory works better for me (pure speculation I admit): Bristol spent time partying at the Johnston house. Now Sherry and husband Keith divorcing. Hard to find info on Keith. Keith and Bristol parents of Trig? Mercede refers to Trig (on her myspace page with photo of newborn Trig) as her "baby brother." WHY? Because he IS?
Just because Sherry Johnston said she had a hysterectomy doesn't mean it is so. I think that was another tall tale that Sarah produced to keep the blood hounds off the trail.
Yup she did hence the medication use (abuse?) for pain.
Most of the charges are dropped for Sherry Johnston, but it was underage users that informed on her. Selling to children would be child endangerment and abuse if she wasn't connected to a Palin, in a place full of corrupt authority or with an atmosphere where drunken youth is encouraged or neglected. IMO she did more then abuse medication.
The skinny is that there is a clinic in the valley that is more "Dr. Feelgood" then pain relief. Places like that are where the authorities should focus. Whatever is going on with the doctors, they look bad, but they are dependent on pharma to make money off their patients. Wasilla is just a town that is on the world radar now, may be not that much worse from other areas? I've seen more then I want to remember where I am. Doctors and nurses have some of the worst addiction problems of any profession. It is always some poor sucker that gets caught, however. Having or embellishing any kind of health problem is a ticket to ride for some addicts. Mrs. Johnston is young, she can go on for years tanked up. Look at Liza Minelli and Liz Taylor, unlike Heath Ledger and Anna Nicole, they are still around. The rich addicts I've known don't go to clinics, they work their doctors and have ingenious ways that you can't believe.
You know drugs are bad in the valley b/c of the silence. Who do they think they are kidding? We heard that last August McCain ppl cleaned out everything on the net for the Palins. Palin's friends didn't get the same treatment. Poor Mercede's drunken pics are still on the net under the name of Bristol Palin. Plus the thousands of screen shots taken before things went to private. It could get interesting if they are planning on lying their way out of the chemical issues. It is always a pathetic scene to watch and those ppl are under a microscope now. Let the adults wallow in their licentious nature. It's when they start using the babies that they can all rot in prison for all I care. The Palin's issues have been covered up. No one will be saying they do anything in regard to medication abuse, and Bristol's photos are gone. They get a pass until the "iceberg".
Judges in my area don't keep babies away from addicted and alcoholic parents or grandparents, if there is a problem they have other ways of dealing with that. You have to be awful to lose parental rights. Palin rules Alaska like a tyrant. Law enforcement and the courts are weakened or out and out corrupt. The Johnstons are up against that. You don't actually make deals in those cases, it's called extortion. Maybe the RICO laws will catch up with the Palins. When will Mrs. Johnston be sentenced for her one felony?
Not saying it is easy but there are alternatives for those who are sick of using. It doesn't hurt to try. http://www.medtronic.com/neuro/ttp/ps_jerry.html Neurostimulation
The baby theories are too much. I just don't know, but I don't see how Sarah was preg with Trig either. It could be a real sick story, and not teen lovers having babies. I hope all the liars that got caught up in a hoax like that will end up doing time. If Sarah was not preg that means they sure fvcked with Pipers head. Trig's DS can keep him separated from things, if he is not getting the treatment he needs, that will keep him back. If he gets any brain damage from their choice of medications there is more damage. Bristol has already admitted to being isolated, like a prisoner. When she goes on her glamor public relation tours she has a minder.
You can hear Sarah and Todd in their own words describing what is called the "wild ride". If she was preg she did endanger a baby. They sound like frauds, not parents talking about a birth in the tape. Go to Palingates to listen or read the transcript.
Even if she was preg, there is a story. The only ppl deserving millions are the ones who are dedicated to the truth, no holding back. The Johnston's are probably fairly closely aligned to the Palin's politics. Drug the children, cut education, with few exceptions women and natives are 3rd and 4th class citizens, fill up the jail with sick addicts and offer slight treatment only when you have to. The Palin and Johnstons are old hockey associates, as long as the Johnstons know their place beneath the Palins and are comfortable with that, why rock the boat? There was a glimmer of strength when Levi stood his ground and said "abstinence-only wasn't realistic". That is along way from breaking with the old Wasilla crowd. These ppl live in a sick twisted cocoon.
I have this really sneaky suspicion that they promised Sherry a deal if she pled but that they're going to renege and throw everything they can at her now that she's pled guilty.

ReplyDeleteWhat a weird photo...Sherry is dressed for the summer; Levi for the fall; and Bristol for the winter.
ReplyDeleteDon't be silly, Sherry's health problems have been dreamed up to keep her out of jail. Or more likely, to make it look like she should stay out of jail.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it just gets too obvious.
Watch out for the poison berries, Gryph!
ReplyDeleteEven though Dan Fagan pisses me off sometimes there's a great article he wrote in the ADN about Sarah Palin. I couldn't get the URL to copy but just go the the local columnist section. It's great.
ReplyDelete@6:03 Anon, I think you mean Mercede, not Bristol.
ReplyDeleteThanks The straight goods! for telling it like it is. Levi is a pussy. Mercede made a similar comment about Levi in a post she made while in FL back in January. You remember she said something about Bristol not letting her see her 'nefu' and Levi having his head in his butt. Yea, Mercede was saying that Levi was taking Bristol's side and wouldn't demand that Bristol share the baby. Sad! Also remember Mercede saying on LKL that Bristol would not let Levi talk to her for the whole summer and that Levi stupid ass actually did not talk to his blood sister because Bristol told him not to.
ReplyDeleteLevi is whipped and he is keeping Mercede from telling the whole truth about this scandal. He has threatened to eliminate Mercede from his life if she talks too much. Remember how he would stare her down during the Tyra and LKL interviews when she was about to say too much.
You know damn well that Mercede wants her brother in her life and she does not want to piss him off. Hell, she has his name tattooed on her wrist. Now that's some crazy kind of LOVE if you ask me.
Straight goods, what makes you think Sherry's health problems "ARE DREAMED up"? Unfornately it is more common than not... that many woman who have have (my words) "botched" hysterectomies have chronic pain afterwords, how dare you presume otherwise!
ReplyDeleteGod forbid you ever have chronic pain! And yes unless you live in a bubble it can happen in a heartbeat! A auto accident, fall off a ladder, a number of things.
So unless you've walked a mile in someone's else moccosins...STFU!
crystalwolf, that's the spirit! I know all about pain and I know that many have cronic pain too but in this case I'm just using logic to come to the conclusion that the pain being talked about is a whole lot different from any real pain Sherry has. This is not an uncommon ploy to use when negotiating a sentence with a judge. I take it one step further and say that Palin has the power to make it so for Sherry with a convincing reference to support Sherry as an aquaintance of hers.
ReplyDeleteWhether or not Palin had anything to do with having Sherry busted for drug trafficking is beyond my knowledge and also beyond what I would speculate on. Having said that, of course it's quite feasible because the timing is right. So now we have a scenario where Palin spare's Mercedes' mommy in exchange for Mercedes cooperation and silence. It should work fine except for the fact that Mercedes is determined to do in Palin and she will most likely surrepticiously pass the word around about the truth. The trouble is, and this is the important part, unless she goes public on the MSM with the truth then nothing will change in the whole country learning the truth in a format that they can't deny.
Use your brain crystalwolf, and tell those dimwits over at PD to start using their brains too. We know the truth and to entertain those who want to continue to obfuscate the truth are only pushing the cause backwards.
Anon 5:41 a.m., essentially we agree on most of it but I would be cautious about Levi having any control whatsoever on Mercedes. That girl has become very mature and clever over all this and I don't think Levi could influence her in the least. What we saw was more likely Levi keeping in mind what he (and they) were told to say by their laywer and Levi worrying that Mercedes would slip up and not follow instructions. In my opinion Mercedes knew exactly what she was saying and was going to say and there never was a danger of her slipping and spilling the beans. If anybody stumbles it will be Levi. The mother isn't capable of mumbling more than a couple of words because she knows she doesn't have the ability to be a convincing liar.
ReplyDeleteYes, Mercedes love for Levi is some crazy thing but isn't it a commendable thing! It's something else that shows Mercedes tremendous power. IMHO that girl is going places unless Palin does something vicious to destroy her. Levi is nothing but a fu--ing loser.
What a terrific picture! It speaks volumns.
ReplyDeleteTiming is vital. I trust Gryphen to continue what he is doing with attention to detail and integrity. He'll know when the time is right. I try not to set my self up, que sera, sera, it keeps the anxious me in check. The trolls that come here don't show any troll style anymore. I hardly notice them.
Mercedes is the pack leader. What's her price? Mercedes would like to talk. How tempting is the Sarah money/deal? There are no doubt things that both families want to keep quiet and they believe that working a deal is the best chance. Plus they can claim they are doing it for the babies and all look like a wonderful family.
I believe the Johnston's could do better on their own when it comes to money plus keep their freedom and independence. Mercedes could definitely launch a
ReplyDeletecareer to pay her way through school, she would not have to sacrifice her free speech, Levi could get into a better situation and Sherry could be more comfortable. IMO that would be the best for the babies for the long run. I don't know Sherry's remaining charge? I'd like to see the law go after the doctors that string these unfortunate people out. When communities step up and face what drugs are doing to their children and society things will improve, the road they are on now is full of doom, gloom and cheap tricks. I'd have more respect if the authorities charged people with child endangerment. Some first time drug offenders should be in jail, but I'm not for all first time offenders going to jail. The way it's done in the Valley is what it is. Here people write letters and talk to the Judge.
I don't see that either dysfunctional family is ready to put the children first. They both have too much to hide and are busy with their own self -centered obsession. Judges deal with drug families all the time and children live around the drama, when the authorities are involved they have some chance to be watched and can possibly be safe.
Whether or not Sherry's medical condition is real won't be the issue if she has doctors vouching for her. She looks in bad enough shape just from being addicted, however, it all came about. As much denial as is coming out of the Valley, I don't have many illusions about that place. My heart goes out to the few good souls who are not in the gutter with their kings and queens of corruption.
I can't think of anything worse then a deal with a devil. All the strings attached and having your tongue cut out for life.
I hope the Johnston family is not even contemplating selling out. Sherry is zonked, if her lawyer gives her good advice and she goes against it, a lawyer is to do as the client says.
How did she get scurvy, is that from chronic drug use? To have shame about drug use is normal. Whether it is doctors over medicating, youthful indiscretions or other. The Johnston family is not alone. They will not believe how beautiful the world is when they can stop hiding and purge all that crap. People who live in shame can be easily manipulated.
Levi wants to hunt and he is looks like a romantic for a "good" relationship with Bristol. I think Mercedes refers to his blind spots as he is not doing well. Levi, if I could tell you, I'd say listen to your sister. Your family will sink or swim with the decisions you all are to make. I'd like to hear that you are doing your DNA tests and being your own person. That would show the world that you are capable and do love your baby or babies. TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS. That's when you will be a fit parent. Wake up and notice how your son Tripp already looks like he is abused, as parents will do to get a child to keep quiet. I'm sure you know about the obsession and addiction dynamics in both families. If you care for Bristol, give her the space to do what she must. She acts like she has been brainwashed by a cult, it is sad, but you are powerless to help her. Especially, if you are acting like a sap.
Books need to be dealt with through agents and publishers and not by telling the public anything. Butler knows how much to say at this time. I can believe there is an iceberg coming. I have no clue when or which one. Who knows what the Johnstons believe about that. The Johnstons have their experiences and what Sarah would want them to believe, they could put a few cracks in her stories.
Sarah has magical thinking and she only has to believe in Sarah and her religion.
Something does seem to be up with her. She could be noticing some chinks in her armor or ominous signs on her horizon. She looks like hell these days.
Any possibility the tinfoil theory suggested over at The Mudflats that Trig is the child of Sherry J and Track P? In a weird twisted way this kinda works . . .
ReplyDeleteFolks, first of all, her name is "Mercede."
ReplyDeleteSecond of all, Rex and Tank are advising the Johnstons. It's pretty clear they know what they're doing.
So you are all welcome to your various chorus of opinions, of course. But the Johnstons are in the Big Leagues now, advised by some pros.
The Palins, by contrast, don't seem to know where/how to get good advice, or else they simply refuse to follow it.
Being Tracks' child is even more harder to wrap one's brain around.
ReplyDeleteare these comments closed?
ReplyDeleteI guess not.
ReplyDeleteRex and Tank are tops. I hope the Johnstons are listening to them.
ReplyDeleteBritney Spears is an old Big Leaguer, advised by pros.
so much for listening when you are strung out or an emotional wreck.
People will have opinions, until they show us something more. All in good time. It is not only the Johnstons, the whole Valley seems to be in denial about drugs. Their silence is deafening. It's not like people haven't seen the now private MySpace accounts and party pictures. Mercede has her teen alcohol record. Those issues often run in families. I'm disgusted with everyone ignoring the babies. Especially, when the babies look drugged. It's more disgusting when people ignore babies well being and then claim to love them so much. I do hope that doesn't happen, but there are no signs that the Johnstons are anymore able to face up to some realities. I've known many a parent that was hooked on medication. It's legal and it is sad, but their minds turn to mush.
They do look like a dysfunctional family and in major denial, I hope not the latter. Mercede looks determined and like she could be a force.
I don't think their dysfunction is anywhere near the Palins. I want to be able to have more faith in the Johnstons, but they just aren't sending out that vibe yet.
Little baby Tripp looks zonked too and no one wants to notice.
I'm waiting to see if he and Trig get a chance in life.
Didn't Sherry J. supposedly have a hysterectomy some years ago? How could Trig be hers?
ReplyDelete505am that is what she says
ReplyDeleteYup she did hence the medication use (abuse?) for pain. Tin foil theory is just that - tin foil-ey.

Well, THIS theory works better for me (pure speculation I admit): Bristol spent time partying at the Johnston house. Now Sherry and husband Keith divorcing. Hard to find info on Keith. Keith and Bristol parents of Trig? Mercede refers to Trig (on her myspace page with photo of newborn Trig) as her "baby brother." WHY? Because he IS?
Just because Sherry Johnston said she had a hysterectomy doesn't mean it is so. I think that was another tall tale that Sarah produced to keep the blood hounds off the trail.
ReplyDeleteYup she did hence the medication use (abuse?) for pain.
ReplyDeleteMost of the charges are dropped for Sherry Johnston, but it was underage users that informed on her. Selling to children would be child endangerment and abuse if she wasn't connected to a Palin, in a place full of corrupt authority or with an atmosphere where drunken youth is encouraged or neglected. IMO she did more then abuse medication.
The skinny is that there is a clinic in the valley that is more "Dr. Feelgood" then pain relief. Places like that are where the authorities should focus. Whatever is going on with the doctors, they look bad, but they are dependent on pharma to make money off their patients. Wasilla is just a town that is on the world radar now, may be not that much worse from other areas? I've seen more then I want to remember where I am. Doctors and nurses have some of the worst addiction problems of any profession. It is always some poor sucker that gets caught, however. Having or embellishing any kind of health problem is a ticket to ride for some addicts. Mrs. Johnston is young, she can go on for years tanked up. Look at Liza Minelli and Liz Taylor, unlike Heath Ledger and Anna Nicole, they are still around. The rich addicts I've known don't go to clinics, they work their doctors and have ingenious ways that you can't believe.
You know drugs are bad in the valley b/c of the silence. Who do they think they are kidding? We heard that last August McCain ppl cleaned out everything on the net for the Palins. Palin's friends didn't get the same treatment. Poor Mercede's drunken pics are still on the net under the name of Bristol Palin. Plus the thousands of screen shots taken before things went to private. It could get interesting if they are planning on lying their way out of the chemical issues. It is always a pathetic scene to watch and those ppl are under a microscope now. Let the adults wallow in their licentious nature. It's when they start using the babies that they can all rot in prison for all I care. The Palin's issues have been covered up. No one will be saying they do anything in regard to medication abuse, and Bristol's photos are gone. They get a pass until the "iceberg".
Judges in my area don't keep babies away from addicted and alcoholic parents or grandparents, if there is a problem they have other ways of dealing with that. You have to be awful to lose parental rights. Palin rules Alaska like a tyrant. Law enforcement and the courts are weakened or out and out corrupt. The Johnstons are up against that. You don't actually make deals in those cases, it's called extortion. Maybe the RICO laws will catch up with the Palins. When will Mrs. Johnston be sentenced for her one felony?
Not saying it is easy but there are alternatives for those who are sick of using. It doesn't hurt to try.

The baby theories are too much. I just don't know, but I don't see how Sarah was preg with Trig either. It could be a real sick story, and not teen lovers having babies. I hope all the liars that got caught up in a hoax like that will end up doing time. If Sarah was not preg that means they sure fvcked with Pipers head. Trig's DS can keep him separated from things, if he is not getting the treatment he needs, that will keep him back. If he gets any brain damage from their choice of medications there is more damage. Bristol has already admitted to being isolated, like a prisoner. When she goes on her glamor public relation tours she has a minder.
ReplyDeleteYou can hear Sarah and Todd in their own words describing what is called the "wild ride". If she was preg she did endanger a baby. They sound like frauds, not parents talking about a birth in the tape. Go to Palingates to listen or read the transcript.
Even if she was preg, there is a story. The only ppl deserving millions are the ones who are dedicated to the truth, no holding back. The Johnston's are probably fairly closely aligned to the Palin's politics. Drug the children, cut education, with few exceptions women and natives are 3rd and 4th class citizens, fill up the jail with sick addicts and offer slight treatment only when you have to. The Palin and Johnstons are old hockey associates, as long as the Johnstons know their place beneath the Palins and are comfortable with that, why rock the boat? There was a glimmer of strength when Levi stood his ground and said "abstinence-only wasn't realistic". That is along way from breaking with the old Wasilla crowd. These ppl live in a sick twisted cocoon.
Cecilia, I don't think so!
