Stapleton said she resigned to spend more time with her husband and 2-year-old daughter, Isabella.“While it has been an honor to help Gov. Palin and her family over the last few years, I am also honored to have this incredible opportunity to stay home with my precious miracle, Isabella,” Stapleton told POLITICO. “At 2 years old, I have missed significant moments in her life, but I look forward with great happiness to celebrating milestones as well as mundane moments with her as I refocus my priorities. I also look forward to seeing my saint-of-a-husband again, too!” (To read the rest of Politico's post just click the title.)
Wow! So Meg has FINALLY decided to get to while the getting is good huh?
“Meg has been deeply involved in all things Palin and instrumental in Sarah's many successes,” Fred Malek, a prominent Republican fundraiser and Palin friend, told POLITICO. “It’s hard to replace anyone so loyal, tireless and effective, but the Palin phenomenon will continue. Meg has surely earned the privilege to devote more time to her 2-year-old daughter, but I expect she will continue to render advice to her good friend on key issues.
It appears that Meg handed in her resignation last week.
In an e-mail to the staff last week, she wrote: “Earlier this week, I handed Governor Palin my resignation, effective the end of this month.”
No wonder nobody has spoken out about the "ruffled ear" story. Who will Palin get to be her attack poodle now?
Update: It is definitely worth noting that there is NOTHING about Meg's resignation from the Palin camp. Not on Twitter, not on Facebook, nowhere!
Not to be TOO conspiratorial here, but if Meg really notified her boss that she was leaving don't you think there would a prepared statement ready to go out the day that it was reported to the media? I mean exactly what is Sarah paying all of those consultants and ghostwriters for?
Update 2: For those speculating that "ruffled ear" baby is Meg's, you should know that Isabella was born on July 1. 2007. Doesn't work.
Update 3: It looks like there kinda...sorta...might be a response from the Palin camp about this resignation. Go down to the bottom.
I especially like this part: The source noted that the family, which takes pride in their Alaskan identity, are comfortable speaking in their own voice.
Palin is going to speak in her own voice? Well THAT should work out well for her. Oh well, that was just mean now wasn't it?
Update 4: Just in case there are some of you who may not really know and despise Meg Stapleton yet, let's take a trip in the wayback machine to October of 2008. This was in the middle of the Troopergate investigation.
Les Gara rocked didn't he?
Good for Meg! I am surprised she lasted this long with all the crazy never-ending shit the Palins put her through. Maybe now Meg can start redeeming her soul.
ReplyDeleteThe last line of the politico article is breathtaking:
ReplyDelete“While I had hoped to work together on so many more projects, time with my precious 2-year-old has been further minimized with the whirlwind commitments of all things Palin,” she told the SarahPAC staff. “I have done my best to scale back, but Isabella is now resorting to hiding my BlackBerry, and she shouldn't grow up begging for a mother to start acting like a mother.”
Will RAM be promoted? Ha. See ya, Meg. Lame excuse. Your baby was even younger before. Why did it not matter then?
ReplyDeleteOhmygoodness. I'm grinning ear-to-ear. I hear the sound of crumbling in the Palin empire. Interesting timing.
ReplyDeleteMeg says..."While I had hoped to work together on so many more projects, time with my precious 2-year-old has been further minimized with the whirlwind commitments of all things Palin,” she told the SarahPAC staff. “I have done my best to scale back, but Isabella is now resorting to hiding my BlackBerry, and she shouldn't grow up begging for a mother to start acting like a mother."
ReplyDeleteTranslation: I couldn't take another minute with Palin no matter how much money she paid me.
Oooooo, here's a jab at Mrs. Palin:
ReplyDelete"I have done my best to scale back, but Isabella is now resorting to hiding my BlackBerry, and she shouldn't grow up begging for a mother to start acting like a mother.”

I would pay full price for that book!
ReplyDeleteWe get it babies are precious too bad the truth isn't.
ReplyDeleteI admit I will miss Meg, and her over-the-top press releases. Her unique contributions did much to add to circus air of the Palin drama.
ReplyDelete"Phenomenom" not exactly my choice of discriptive.
ReplyDeleteGood to see the rats are abandoning the ship.
ReplyDeleteThat means it's going.......d
o

n
!
The Politco article quotes from her email to staff and she seems to be taking a shot at Sarah, "all things Palin" and that her own child shouldn't have to grow up begging her mother to be a mother.
ReplyDeleteOh, wow. I didn't know Meg was two years old.
ReplyDelete“At 2 years old, I have missed significant moments in her life, ........”
I thought it very odd that it was Malek making the "thank you Meg" statement vs Palin. That is not how it usually goes. What, the queen did not have anything nice to say so she said nothing at all??
ReplyDeleteGood for Meg. Wish SP would follow her example. SP is missing out on her baby's life too. Not to mention the other children.
ReplyDeleteHave you been noticing that most of the blogs and news articles seem to be using the uglier versions of SP's photos? All that cosmetic surgery for naught.
The rats are jumping from the sinking $$ Palin. If Fred Malek is making this public announcement, then there truly is trouble in saradise. Get the popcorn ready, this things going to blow up very quickly. Gryphen's awesome story this week is only the tip of the iceberg.
ReplyDeleteNo wonder why Todd had to scratch from his beloved Irondog and rush home to calm the screeching $carah who must definitely be in meltdown mode. Damage control has begun.
It's "every man for himself" time in Palinworld!!
ReplyDeleteWill Palin be penning a heartfelt goodbye tweet to Meg?
ReplyDeletePlease add graphic. Palin with blackberries and baby. Then the meg quote
ReplyDeleteshe shouldn't grow up begging for a mother to start acting like a mother.”
Seriously, shouldn't a spokesperson have a grasp of English grammar! I guess the world is now literally her oyster.
ReplyDeleteYou KNOW there's a juicy book that's gonna get written!
ReplyDeleteMeg, you do realize that by quitting you will not become Chief of Staff when Sarah becomes....
ReplyDeleteOh shit, what the hell was I thinking.
G-man great work on eargate.
Things are getting pretty hot in that cold state.
Palin's schedule seems so erratic--here, there and everywhere--I don't see how anyone could put up with it.
ReplyDeleteMeg should made alot off of SarahPac. Do you think there might have been problems with the recent PAC disclosures?
WRITE A BOOK MEGSTER! It might even clear your name ~ or help with a plea deal....
ReplyDeleteJus' Sayin'
She has no credibility in Alaska.
ReplyDeleteWhen I read the comments after the article, I couldn't help but wonder how many full time Sarah PAC employees are engaged in simply going to blog and article comment sections to promote and protect their Queen.
ReplyDeleteA very interesting development indeed! Meg's statement about "acting like a mother" says it all. But for those of us who think-- "Yeah- if only SP would get that message," remember folks, SP is mentally ill. She is not capable of responsibly and loving parenting anyone-- look at her record! I say this in an attempt to be real, not to be hurtful. Apparently Todd is a more able parent and hopefully as the whole house of cards comes down, some of the extended family (sans grandad Chuck) will lend a hand.
ReplyDeleteI suspect that Malek is the current mouthpiece because so many of SP's other handlers are disgusted with her and probably know what's coming.
Husky @8:17--
ReplyDelete“At 2 years old, I have missed significant moments in her life, ........”
Meg's poor writing skills blared at me, too. I bet she attended the same journalism school as Mrs. Palin!
Epic fails, all of 'em.
So why is it so important to be a mother now when she didn't do it for two years?
ReplyDeleteGet sick of swallowing all those lies?
Good riddance to bad rubbish!
Somebody should check out that two-year-old child's ears.
ReplyDeleteAnybody seen Kristin Cole lately...?
ReplyDeleteBook deal...mega-bucks...learn to carry child like French loaf...
ReplyDeleteStapleton said she resigned to spend more time with her husband and 2-year-old daughter, Isabella.
ReplyDeleteTwo years old…..mmmmmmm….has anyone ever looked at Isabella’s EARS?
Too funny . However, I will never, as in ever, forgive Meg for being part and parcel of making Sarah Palin a continual national item. Many of you may , I will not...ever. She knew what Palin was and didn't care. If she's been part of Palin's crew since 2006 then her 2 yr. old child didn't matter to her...at least not until the fire started getting hot lately. So to hell with Meg and her ,"I need to see my family"' lie. I feel nothing but contempt for anyone connected to Palin. Particularly that Meg was connected for so long. Sorry, but she was out front LYING for Palin for years. That gets no pass because many people were hurt by her and Palin's lies. No more forgiveness for lying Repubs or any politician that lies on the scale of Palin. And I don't care what anyone thinks of me for feeling like this. I'm sick of lying grifters making fortunes with the help of LYING front women like Meg in this nation while others suffer and these creeps turn their backs, laugh, feign outrage at BS and rake in the bucks.
ReplyDeleteMeg needs more time to prepare for her depositions.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of depositions, I wish the best for Levi, on the grill for VF. I can't help but wonder if they were trying to throw his focus off by announcing Bristol's teen sex/pregnancy TV acting performance? That doesn't happen until next summer. Who knows she won't quit? It looks good for the moment, like she has another job and not just "working" for mommy friends.
Gryphen suggested trouble between Meg and Sarah a few months ago. I guess the Rahm/Limbaugh/Family Guy issue pushed the relationship to the limit.
ReplyDeleteDid Meg simply get fed up with what was demanded of her? Did Sarah blame Meg for the negative press? (I can't imagine how horrific it would be to have Sarah pissed and screaming at me.)
If things were still cozy with them, wouldn't Sarah have issued a press release? Oh, wait...
Meg has a 2 yr old? Wonder if she has ruffled ears? Just askin'....
ReplyDeleteoh boy RAM's wet dream has just come true!
"Palin and her now ex-aide have been talking about her stepping down for some time, and it became official on Wednesday — Stapleton’s birthday."
Yeah, bet a bird was whispering in the quitter's ear..."fire her" and the queen knowing full well meggie has a snootful of secrets to tell, wouldn't fire her...And then all of a sudden today effective the end of the month, how many days away...? She quits? Wonder what cased that??? LOL! EARS????
BBBBBWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAaaaaa..
ReplyDeleteIs there any time to catch one's breath before the next rolling on the floor laugh-o-thon begins with these clowns??
Who knew Meg had a kid?
ReplyDeleteOh well...
It is sad that a two yr old has learned to hide a blackberry. Then again, "all things Palin" pretty much sums up slot of crap kids learn.
So is Ivy Fried getting a promotion? Now that would be see entertainment, watching The Fried doing press comments.
It is funny that Palin couldn't take the time to publicly thank Meg for all she has done...Sarah reminds me of a person that wouldn't care about Meg's reasons for resigning and is probobly taking it real personal and plotting out some kind of sarcastic remark or action towards Meg. That is just how Sarah is.
ReplyDelete"Resigned"? I have a feeling "thrown under the bus" is more likely. Malek making a statement (instead of long-time friend and employer SP) speaks volumes.
ReplyDeleteA few points on this:
ReplyDelete1) Nice to see for a change that the Palin entourage actually see the value in giving attention to a toddler, by returning to the home, rather than drag a todder into the office, business environment, public environment.
2) A new spokeswoman/man will have to be replaced. Will she/he be able to work with Leona Helmsley...cough....oops, SarahPalin?
Well it's going to have to be a very close insider that gets the new job, otherwise me thinks no new outsider recruit could handle in good conscience working wih her. This soap opera just keeps us on our toes.
So a woman with five kids (more or less) doesn't respect the need for her assistent to spend time with HER child? Sounds to me like Scarah made her choose: the kid or me. Had Scarah really been supportive of working mothers she wouldn't have worked Meg like a dog so she had to miss time with her daughter (not that I'm defending Meg.) Just another in a very long list of Paylin hypocrises. And you can bet it's NOT a good sign that Crazy hasn't weighed in on this news. Why is Malek filling in as spokesperson?? Curioser and curioser.
ReplyDeleteAnother liar bites the dust.
ReplyDeleteSince Palin had advance notice of the resignation, it's curious that she didn't issue a statement to go with the story.
Maybe Meg wouldn't pay her $100 k.
Wonder how long it will take Sarah or her Palinots to make nasty remarks about Meg?
ReplyDeleteIf Meg thinks she needs to be home with a "normal" 2 year old, maybe she told Palin to do the same with her special needs child- ya know, start acting like a mother instead of carrying him like a "loaf of french bread."
ReplyDeleteHusky and Lisa, thanks for being grammar geeks like me! Meg does have pretty poor writing skills for someone purporting to be a spokesperson. And how many people decide that they need to spend more time with their kids when they're TWO, and not before?
ReplyDeleteLet's not forget that Karl Rove himself ominously lurks behind SP .. I'm sure nothing is at it seems ... he twists things even more than Dorothy's weather problems ! Let's wait and see .. in the meantime Gryphen, stay safe and take steps to keep yourself safe, please.
ReplyDeletecorrection re: my comment above.. should say ..."responsibly or lovingLY parenting.."
ReplyDeleteBut while I'm here, I'll add another thought: Malek's comment about the "Palin phenomenon" is also very telling. For Malek, Murdock, Ailes, Cheney, et.al., Palin is a commodity called "a shiny political distraction." She is that "empty vessel" that they can use to further their own goals. These goals are usually in conflict with the interests of most people in the US and around the world. The puppet masters thought they found the perfect distraction/delicious demagogue in SP-- unfortunately their phenomenon is actually severely damaged goods. Her expiration date is approaching. I'm surprised that these "brilliant" tycoons didn't examine their investments more closely.
It took her TWO YEARS to realize her daughter needed her? All infants and togglers need their mothers which is why the French give mothers two years of leave when they have a child.
ReplyDeleteMeg's daughter is two years old, I believe Trig is two years old... Does Meg's child have "RUFFLED" ears?
ReplyDeleteJust asking?
Gryph,
ReplyDeleteDon't know if you saw this yet or if someone else already posted, but Daily Beast has an article today about SP not being much of an advocate for those with disabilities.
Duh, ya think?!
Anyway author says that Meg agreed to answer a questionaire about Sarah's stance on a variety of issues. Then she goes on to say, but she didn't, instead she e-mailed us links to various articles that show Palin's stance.
I get that Sarah takes no stance other than oooooh yuck, but seriously sent her links?
How professional Meg and Sarah.
WT?!
http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2010-02-22/does-palin-have-disability-cred/p
To Husky: I was sipping water when I read your comment. Needless to say, water is now everywhere. How funny.
ReplyDeleteTo Gryphen: am I misremembering or did you not say some while ago that you'd heard rumors that Meg was depressed and thinking about quitting?
Perhaps I was just hoping, but I thought I read it first here. No matter, you've struck a magnificent blow for truth this week.
I also want to state I agree with others here that it is the height of bad taste that Sarah has not come out with a statement of appreciation for Meg. Even Georgie boy thanked his Press Secretary even though Scott was preparing his tell-all book at the time.
Oh, gosh, do you think we can hope that Meg might do the same or do you suppose Van Flea had her sign a nondisclosure agreement at some point?
Meg must see the writing on the wall and that she will never be White House Press Sect so why subject herself to this crap?
ReplyDeleteMaybe she gets paid off to stay home and stay quiet? LLC Meg?
Hard to believe though after all the new gaffs and retard-gate,that anyone would be backing her for the Big Time but it could be that Meg was told Palin needed a REAL hard-nosed PR person for her 2012 run and Meg, though loyal, is not up to that job.
ReplyDeleteBet that is it,
Somebody should check out that two-year-old child's ears.
ReplyDeleteAnon 8:39, good point!
I have no doubt the Palin "debacle" will continue on.
ReplyDeleteNow Sarah's going to get some soulless ex-lobbyist who will be more adept than Meg at spinning the trash. Don't worry everybody; for every rat that jumps the ship--two more board Sarah's boat to perdition.
Something not right in Palin Paradise, why didn't Palin go on Facebook and say her loyal friend in stepping away to spend time with family and wish Meg luck. If you were resigning wouldn't you give more than a 1 wk notice , unless you quit or were thrown under the bus.
ReplyDeleteIcky poo Meg A Mouth - one screeching harpy down, one to go!
ReplyDeleteHope they come get you to join the orange jumpsuit brigade - you deserve to head up the line. May nightmares of Troopergate swirl in your head, while visions of prisons visit your bed.
hmmm....when I saw the article from Politco over at the mudflats...2 yr old daughter...I got wonderin'.... those baby pictures of the ruffled ears baby looked very femminine. I thought this isn't that chuncky boy we've been seeing...this is a little girl...such a small head and so delicate. Ever visited a newborn baby nursery? Even the little preemie boys look masculine. (I was a newborn nursery nurse) I don't ever remember them talking about Meg having a new baby too? Perhaps it was her baby's shower? Of course, why was Levi so endearing to that baby in the kitchen..wishing it was his baby instead of the one he couldn't hold still in the hospital? The timing of Meg quitting with the outing of those pictures seem fishy to me. Just thinking....
ReplyDeleteSounds like good old Meg was thrown under the bus. The tell for me was this - “I have done my best to scale back, but Isabella is now resorting to hiding my BlackBerry, and she shouldn't grow up begging for a mother to start acting like a mother.”
ReplyDeleteMeow! Kitty has claws!
Despite Meg's years of truly outrageous, deceitful complicity in "all things Palin" I truly hope that, whatever the reason for her quitting the Quitter, Meg has had an epiphany and is actually thinking of her two-year old child's needs. That would be lovely for both mother and child.
ReplyDeleteNow Meg, you can become a parent who is available to your daughter *and* work leisurely on a tell-all-no holds-barred mandatious book!
What is it with Meg and Sarah, it's always over the top!
ReplyDeleteWhy can't her daughter simply be her daughter - 'precious miracle?'
Why can't her spouse just be a spouse? Saint of a husband?
Good riddance of these assinine press releases, oh, Darah remains, I stand corrected.
First Scott Brown acts like a responsible adult. Then word comes that the Reinvestment Act performed better than expected. Next Eargate blows wide open. Now this?! This has been the best week of the year- BY FAR!!!
ReplyDeletePolitico did Meg a favor and cleaned up her syntax from this
ReplyDelete"At 2 years old, I have missed significant moments in her life..."
to this ""[She is] 2 years old, [and] I have missed significant moments in her life"
Great spokesperson.
She probably had to sign a non-disclosure agreement before she could cash the hush money check. Also it's reported she gave birth to Isabella in June07. Any pics? She was probably soo jealous of the Abs of Steel .....
ReplyDeleteGryphen,
ReplyDeleteExcellant story that you have worked on. Todd Palin first leaving the snowrace early and now this......BTW r there any pics of Meg's baby just in case because that baby in the shower had to be somebody;s baby that Sarah Palin could trust and why not her spokewoman???
FUCK MEG STAPLETON! I will NEVER forgive her for talkin' trash about the honorable Walt Monegan.
ReplyDelete"...and she shouldn't grow up begging for a mother to start acting like a mother.”
ReplyDelete-Oh snap!
I tend to think eargate has something to do with Megs resignation.
ReplyDeletealso .... she gave two weeks notice!!! what are friends for?
ReplyDeleteanother good church going hypocrite
ReplyDeleteI was lucky to have spent the first 18 months at home with my son after he was born. Those are precious times. Poor Isabella. (I wonder about her ears too, but that would be too weird)
ReplyDeleteI loved Meg when she was on the news, she was great. (really!) I still can't believe she gave it all up for Palin. I guess money does it all.
I hope she devotes her time to her daughter & writes us a good book.
Good luck Meg, you screwed the country along with Walt.
hmmmmmm...can't wait for the fallout from this one....
ReplyDeleteMeg knows sooo much on grifter granny...all comes down to the $$$$$..bet granny is in a tailspin
no wonder turd scratched the irondog...
This is about the speculation that ruffled ear baby might be Meg's baby.
ReplyDeletePalin had a press release to announce the birth of Meg's child.
http://www.thesourdough.com/index.php?articleID=12139§ionID=84
Press release dated July 1, 2007 says Isabella was born on "Saturday night". July 1 was a Sunday, so this suggests the birth date was June 30, 2007. If the "kitchen baby" pictures were taken in late April/early May of 2008, wouldn't she be too old (about 10 months) to pass off as a newborn at that time?
Most frequently, when politically connected people resign for 'family reasons', the family is not the reason. Usually, it is because the s**t has hit the fan – either a personal/family scandal or a politically based scandal. And often, they use family as an excuse when they are really being fired.
ReplyDeleteSo, did Meg just now learn about the switched babies? Doubt it, but perhaps now that the photographic evidence makes the story undeniable, she is unable on some emotional level to continue with the lies. Malek was in charge of Nixon's dirty tricks program, with Donald Segretti and others. Doubt that he's having a difficult time dealing with anything dirty. These are just my opinions.
Is Sarah melting down? Don't doubt that at all. Did Todd REALLY have to quit the race? Don't know, but verification would be helpful.
With Bristol possibly considering a Hollywood move, that would deprive the queen of one of her biggest props of all: a BABYSITTER!!!!! LOL, she'd have to be a real mom to Piper and Trig after all.
Can't IMAGINE the secrets Meg knows by now. And don't forget: 25,000 more emails possibly on the way.
Just like with Leona Helmsly, when the queens get older, more people are willing to talk.
What a monumental tragedy, since far more lives than Sarah's own have been seriously harmed by her.
I have wondered about the toddlers ears too, also, and mentioned it on the ruffled ears post...
ReplyDeleteVery interesting that she FINALLY quits - I thought she had done so a couple of months ago.
Also kind of curious that Malek is talking/giving her kudos, but $arah is QUIET - not a peep of 'thanks for all your great services, you will be sorely missed'. Not a peep out of her. Period. She seems to be in hiding again - Uncle Gryphen, did your post give her too much ulcers?
Meg, you HAVE missed a lot in your child's life, but the most important time comes now. Remember, she is a virtual sponge until the age of about 6 years old! So, feed that sponge intellectually all you can imagine, and then some more!
Only one weeks notice? Does she have a train to catch?
ReplyDeleteWell, to Meg Stapleton's credit, HER kid hasn't been plastered all over gossip magazine covers, on the state of Alaska official website, or pictured being carried everywhere her mother has traveled.
ReplyDeleteSo it might be a LOT harder to take a look at the little tyke's ears... :)
Again with the details no one asked/cared about: In an email to the staff last week, she wrote: "Earlier this week.....". These guys are so clever. Who wrote the Politico piece? This is so it doesn't look like Meg Stapleton is abandoning SP after Gryphen's eargate (love it) bombshell came out, right? To give the impression that Meg was already planning to leave and spend more time with her family, blah blah blah. It's just too obvious when they emphasize the chronology aspect like that. So lame. And no, it's not an accident that SP herself is silent on this resignation, also that there has been no apparent response to the possible multiple babies/ruffled ears revelation.
ReplyDeleteThis is progress! Palin's camp is falling apart. Much better progress than the ear theory that is dead in the water today.
ReplyDeleteOh where to start. Well, here I go. TOO LATE Meg! I sent you an email over one year ago and advised you to get out if you had any decency or if you wanted a chance to continue to work as a political spokesperson EVER! You have lied, and lied, and lied, oh did I mention LIED, but I guess you didn't want to have to come out, face the cameras, or the Facebook pages and tell the BIG ONE, you know, about the BABY(ies)! Right? From Malek ... "anyone so loyal, tireless, and effective," and a bold-faced liar! Right, Malek? And where is Sarah? Well, she is whimpering in a corner, why Meg, why are you leaving me? I need you to (from one of the emails I read)"do the talking for me." "Give me my pills."
ReplyDeleteSo if Meg has a two year old, did her pregnancy overlap with that of Trig's mother? Can her book (and I do want her to write one) include folksy scenes where she and Trig's mother compare pregnancy notes? No?
ReplyDeleteI guess Palin couldn't pay Stapleton whatever amount necessary to keep her doing her job. Ha HA!
ReplyDeleteBut this was rumored a few months back, wasn't it? I wonder what other rumors will be proven true in the near future...
O/T...Palin is scheduled to be on the new Tonight Show next week, and I'm betting she'll be wearing the shortest skirt we've ever seen her in.
ReplyDeleteShe may even 'Sharon Stone' her fans, to arouse her flaccid fan base.
I hear she's having a custom-built bumpit prepared also too, that's taller than anything in Dubai.
Wow, a two year old. Child of an extremely loyal Palinite and nearby. Meg certainly must know a LOT. She should watch her back just like Gryphen.,, Maybe she should tell ALLl quickly to defuse the danger to herself and those she loves.
ReplyDeleteWTF!? No way in hell that Stapleton's resignation and Palin's latest travails are coincidental. Stapelton is ejecting before the you-know-what hits the fan.
ReplyDeleteSo far anytime that someone who was formerly a Palin BFF left her circle, Palin lashed out like an emotionally wounded 13 year old. Will Palin be able to resist the VERY big temptation to throw Stapleton under the bus? I certainly hope not. Stapleton knows in which closets Palin's skeletons reside.
I am laying up my supply of popcorn for the grand show which is fixin' to commence!
Okay!! Ready,...Set...Go!
ReplyDeleteCountdown to the book...10,...9...8
Wow, a little birdie just told me about Meg's "decision". Something tells me eargate was the driving force behind her decision to leave Palin in the dust, and not her precious Isabella. Time will tell.
ReplyDelete“I have done my best to scale back, but Isabella is now resorting to hiding my BlackBerry..."
ReplyDeleteNice try. Methinks the "ruffled ear" not only hid Meg's BlackBerry, but smashed it to bits.
Hee.
I'm always amused when a politician, celebrity, etc. (male OR female) says they want to spend more time with their family. I just sit back and wait for the inevitable investigation, indictment or arrest. As far as Miss Meg is concerned, the old adage "if you lie down with dogs, you're gonna get fleas" comes to mind. She closely associated herself with the Palins, had to know what they were, and yet continued to put herself in front of them, lying her keester off for them. I sure don't feel all warm and fuzzy about her, just because she's quitting to spend time with her 2-year-old. Why now? John McCain is guilty for bring Saracuda to the forefront, but Meg is guilty of keeping her there for lying about her and defending her.
ReplyDeleteAs far as this being a hint to Queenie to spend more time with her kids, I think her kids are probably better off without the unstable, self-centered wackiness that is Sarah.
And is there ANY way someone can check on Meg's toddler's ears? Did Meg ever bring her to work? Are there any photos?
Meg, You can't get those 2 yeas back for your poor motherless child. Hope it was worth it for you.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly are not innocent when it comes to what happened to the children Palin used as props either.
Okay, I am buying more popcorn and lots of champagne! Yes, Meg dear it is a little odd that you suddenly felt it was time to spend more quality time with your family, but I have to admit I do love the blackberry comment. And not a word of gratitude from Grifter Granny. I bet there is stomping of Red Naughty Monkeys and gnashing of teeth. Please someone who has a stronger stomach than me check what the Sea of Pee is saying on this one. Yes, it is book deal for sure. Harper Collins are you ready?
ReplyDeleteDing Dong one of the witches is dead!!!
ReplyDeleteMeg knows what's coming and is hoping to escape before the fraud dam bursts. She better get her affairs in order since she'll be spending plenty of time in court very soon. PalinWorld is about to explode.
ReplyDeleteCould be that Megamouth is sick of Palin's abuse and she is scared that when IRS starts auditing she'll be the first to go under the bus? Didn't she have some business partnerships with the Grifter?
ReplyDeletePalin & 'Staples' can never just
ReplyDeletesay something normally. If it's in any way associated with Sarah it can
only be referred to as, 'incredible,'
'iconic,' a phenonenom,' a cause
to be 'celebtated,' 'a saint,' a
'precious miracle,' a 'real' American, & on & on...
How about a simple straightforward statement like this, Meg:
'I appreciate working with Sarah over these past years and the many memorable experiences we've shared,
but it's time for me to concentrate
on family life and spend more time with my daughter.' Thank-you.
(BTW, I have 4 sons myself for whom I would die for, & of course they're
my precious miracles & we think they're incredible, but I don't
go around spouting off like my head
is up in the clouds. A REAL Mom just
gets on with actually raising her
kids & being there for them. Not just
talking to the media about it.
Interesting Sarah isn't too keen on spending much time with her 'iconic,'
'precious,''blessing,''incredible,
'miracle,' child or children.
Sharon TN
Before going home, Meg needs to go straight to a sweat lodge so she can get all that palin influence and evil out of her system. Then go home, redeemed, and take care of her family; maybe even write a nice, little book.
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking over Fred Malek being the one to put out a statement instead of Sarah. I think Meg is just Sarah's cup of tea--reactive and belligerant. I think Malek is trying to reshape Sarah P's image by eliminating Meg. Sarah has ambitions and if Fred tells her to get rid of Meg she'll do it but probably would want to distance herself a little from the ugly deed. In fact, Sarah's not making a statement herself, is like adding to the injury.
ReplyDeleteRemember how John Edward's married aide was so weak-minded and fawning that he publicly claimed to be the father of Rachel's baby? Dollars to donuts, Meg's baby has ruffled ears.
ReplyDeleteC'mon people -- Meg getting all maternal and distancing herself from Sarah at this particular time is NO coincidence. There's GOT to be a connection to Eargate. The cat is out of the bag and now Sarah wants Meg to get out of town. Time to come clean, Sarah.

ReplyDeleteStapleton's daughter
ReplyDeleteGovernor Palin Welcomes Birth of Meghan Stapleton’s Daughter. July 1, 2007, Anchorage, Alaska – Governor Sa...
The Triggy-Bear ears story and now the Daily Beast's story with national disability rights leaders ON THE RECORD dissing Sarah and her (non, permeable, shifting, grifting, parasitic - you pick!) stand on policies important to disabled persons and their families. Rough week, and it's only Wednesday, hah!
ReplyDeleteThings got a little to ear-ratic in the Palin camp for Megaphone.
ReplyDeleteLets see, since Gryphen broke the ear story, Todd has scratched from the Iron Dog and Meg has resigned. (supposedly last week) Any bets on connections here?
To my mind, the more damning statement comes from Fred Malek, who says: "but the Palin phenomenon will continue. Meg has surely earned the privilege to devote more time to her 2-year-old daughter...."
ReplyDeleteI don't recall a Palin insider having actually used the phrase Palin phenomenon until now--thus blatantly acknowledging that she's just a marketable commodity. Something we've all known since day one ;-).
Then Malek goes on to say that Meg has "surely earned the privilege" to be a full-time mother. WTF? I'm no defender of Stapleton, and I absolutely agree with comments made earlier in this thread about her being the most visible Palin enabler from the beginning. Yet Malek's tone of noblesse oblige is way too much; it implies that Stapleton has gone above and beyond her duty in servitude to the Queen.
Malek has gone, devastatingly, to the heart of the mindset of Palin's minions: Their highest purpose is to serve her (or, in other words, to encourage and profit from the Palin phenomenon). I'm wondering also too: Have we gotten a glimpse at the true power behind the throne?
Kajo @ 9:53 - ditto for Kristan Cole's 5 children - NOT plastered all over, in fact NO pictures.
ReplyDeleteEven Meg and Kristan know it is never smart to throw children in front of cameras constantly.
We seem to have WAY too much info on all the Palin kids - the entire family is a soap opera, and mommy dearest did this to them.
But, shhhhhh! WE are not supposed to talk about the kids!
SP is a mentally unstable nitwit, and her children will pay the price. I am sad for all the kids, legal adults or not.
Meg's daughter was born at the end of June of 2007 so it can't be the shower baby.
ReplyDeleteAnd Queen Sarah has gone into hiding. Wonder where she will pop up first?
ReplyDeleteThink she'll show up for the Tonight show on Monday?
anyone have a photo of Meg's baby's ears???
ReplyDeleteMeg's daughter was 10 months old when the ruffle ears baby photo was taken.
ReplyDeleteDead end everyone - ruffle ears is NOT Meg's daughter, no way, no how.
Malek said, "Meg has surely earned the privilege to devote more time to her 2-year-old." Really?! She needed to EARN that right? Did she have to ask $arah permission to even have that child?!
ReplyDeleteDuring 2009, SarahPAC paid Meg/Izzylene $92,450 in salary and reimbursed expenses to Meg and Eric Steenburgh (husband) totalling $16,854.
ReplyDeleteSarahPAC did not pay Meg/Izzlene in December. It appears that she was drawing a salary of $10,000 per month. Thus, for Dec, Jan, and Feb Meg/Izzylene would be due at least $30,000 in salary.
For her 13 months employment by SarahPAC, Meg/Izzylene earned $122,450. It is unknown if there were any expenses due or paid to her.
Could anyone pay you enough money to put up with all things Palin? I didn't think so.
One interesting note, SarahPAC did not pay any insurance premiums during 2009. I have reviewed PAC expenditures from prominent GOPers and some have purchased health insurance for staffers. I hope Saint Eric has health insurance, cause mental health care ain't cheap.
None of the PACS that I have studied have spent anywhere near the amount of money on political consultants, media consultants and lawyers. The SarahPAC piggybank is open to opportunists.
Sarah, has spending $700,000 or 32%of your donor money on consultants helped you much?
Last thought on this (for now), Sarah would never lower herself to wish a quitter good luck and to thank a quitter for her dedicated service. NO ONE quits on the queen of quitters. She will fire your ass, but you dare not quit.
Only dead fish go with the flow, Meg. I think that's from Macbeth.
ReplyDeleteI knew I had seen an article on Meg's daughter...I have access to an article database for free through my library called Factivia. Back on July 1, 2007 an article was published that said "Governor Palin Welcomes Birth of Meghan Stapleton's Daughter" from the States News Service. The baby was born June 30th, 2007, which was a Saturday. She was 6lbs, 6oz, born in Anchorage. Meghan went the full 9 months
ReplyDeleteSurely earned the privilege to be a full time mother- What??? She served Sarah--therefore she can now be a mother. What can you expect from a man who cooked a dog???
ReplyDeleteWell, I have more thoughts about poor little Meggie.
ReplyDeleteWhat happened 2 weeks ago? Think, now............do you remember yet?
Right, Meg spanked Rushbo for his vile retard rant and Sarah drooled all over herself walking it back. Now, sit back and imagine the scene. Meg is contacted for response on Rush's nasty comments. She stands up and says they are hateful words, regardless of who says them. Remember that little debacle. Then Sarah says, oh no, just kidding, we love Rushbo. It was only satire.
But, what was going on behind the scenes? Too scary for me to even contemplate and it ends with Meggie quitting.
Patrick at PD just said there is a tweet from Shannyn Moore (re Meg):
ReplyDelete""I hear she didn't have an option...waiting."
I can only take this to mean (1)Meg got the axe? Or (2)perhaps a legal issue - quit, turn State's evidence, or go to jail? I am hoping against hope it is #2.
O/T Where is Willow????? haven't heard her mentioned in eons....
ReplyDelete"Megamouth" Stapelton quit? Who is next? Toad?
ReplyDeleteI think Meg's book advance check just cleared.
ReplyDeletePalinbots feed your children white rice and send your money to SarahPac or just put cash in an envelope and mail it to the compound. Keep your priorities straight!
ReplyDeletein doing some research on the "ear" topic, I see a lot of information about Down syndrome children's ears, and the use of those sonographic images as a DS marker.
ReplyDeletethe "folding" ear and the thickened nuchal fold seem a common symptom in DS babies.
so is the baby shower baby also a DS baby? I don't see any information about the ear healing itself.
I am more convinced by the large gill on the BS baby where the ear meets the face.
I know for a fact that those do not heal -- and that is a rather prominent gill
http://www.crowefamily.us/q&a.html
Like clockwork, the Palin bots will demonize her if ever she chooses to expose the fraud for the greater good. Even hearing straight from Steve Schmidt himself about how much of a phony she is... her worshippers just refuse to face the facts.
ReplyDeleteCan someone give me the rundown on what the theory is behind Todd's leaving the race early?
ReplyDeleteLet's ear it for Gryphen!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tremendously important (and moral) work that you're doing.
Shout out to Meg:
Don't get in the plane.
There might be a different bend on this. Fox and other promoters may think it is time to give Sarah a much more polished spokesperson who won't make so many mistakes. They may have taken Sarah aside and said enough is enough! You have a new spokesperson, and you will listen to what they have to say. You got that? If not, you will be destroyed in two minutes.
ReplyDeleteAccording to Meg's home town, Isabella was born the end of June 2007
ReplyDeletehttp://www.auburnpub.com/articles/2008/08/29/local_news/news02.txt
Well, I feel compelled, since we are discussing the inner circle to again send a little message to Trustee Cole:
ReplyDeleteKristan Cheryl Cole, you are a long-time Alaskan who is proud of her state and is dedicating her time and efforts to defend the integrity of Sarah Palin and restore her effectiveness in reforming government.
Trustee Cole, as the sole trustee of the Alaska Fund Trust, have you finished preparing any of the quarterly reports yet? Trustee Cole you committed that you will disclose on a quarterly basis the contributions as well as categories of expenses with amounts.
Just asking. Again. Still Waiting.
Maybe Fred Malek knows the answer. Let's go ask him.
meg a mouth isn't going to write anything her husband is making to much off the palins
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised at how many people mention Meg writing a book, as well as getting out before consequences come from unethical and/or illegal activity. If she were to do anything, I wish she would go to the appropriate authorities with information. If she did so now, she could probably work out a deal for immunity. Such action would be her retaliation against the Palins as well as protection for herself---and she could even wrap it up in some tale of noble, selfless motivation.
ReplyDeleteMeg Stapleton said good by to journalism when she began working for Sarah. I was ashamed of her behavior toward Les Gara. Watching their exchange after the election I became aware she lost all connection with her previous profession. She should be ashamed.
ReplyDeleteOn another topic: Jacqueline Kennedy had a premature baby that died. His name was Patrick and he was five and a half weeks premature. Granted the ability to save preemies has come a long way in all these years, but the baby at that stage of development remains the same. I am convinced Sarah Palin decided to let God decide the fate of her little boy when she left on the wild ride. There was no concern for anyone else but herself in making that decision - her baby, her physician or the passengers on that plane.
You don't think that Stapleton will be courted by a number of major publishing houses and/or agents tempting her with big fat Tell All sweet deals???
ReplyDeleteI do. And she can stay at home with her daughter while she collaborates with a ghost writer who will make it painless and profitable.
I'm sorry, Palin never paid her enough to do all that she did. I'm not impressed with her salary for what she did, given the cost of living in Alaska.
who's gonan tell $arah what to do now?
ReplyDeletekellygirl - My theory on Palin team quitting race early is far different than most people who post here.
ReplyDeleteBut, here goes:
They were WAY behind (hours) and the track was mostly dirt (not snow). I am married to a racer (NOT irondog). I have seen him quit in the middle of a race when he has no chance of placing - saves the car, and saves face too.
Previous winners hate coming in toward the back of the pack.
I don't think there is much more to it, although many speculate that SP was having a meltdown and ordered him home STAT due to eargate.
Not sure we will ever know, or even how important it is TO know.
LOL "No plans to hire a replacement...the family, which takes pride in their Alaskan identity, are comfortable speaking in their own voice". That's hilarious. Isn't speaking in their own voice a large part of their problem?
ReplyDelete"I am also honored to have this incredible opportunity to stay home with my precious miracle, Isabella."
ReplyDeleteI wonder what the incredible opportunity is?
I found this interesting (Eric is Megs husband?):
Rebound Sports & Orthopedic Physical Therapy, LLC, provides prescription pads for doctors. If you or anyone on your staff needs more, please feel free to call 907-341-5555 or email Eric Steenburgh at eric@reboundptak.com.
Prescription pads for doctors?
kdusmdd@11:26am.... you mean "ions" dontcha? lol.
ReplyDeletejust read comments... not one damn troll on the board today....
ReplyDeleteMeg quitting is going to be a 50 Meg-a-ton A bomb going off in Wasilla
I agree with Anon @11:55am. Meg was mean, but not polished. A gaffe-prone fraud like $arah needs "special" handling.
ReplyDelete"her own voice" means WE will keep ALL the money now and pay Bristol to speak for us.
ReplyDeleteElla, sounds right, but if everything at home was normal, he might stay and party? or not, in your experience?
ReplyDeleteIt is strange that since people knew last week she was resigning, that Miss O'silla didn't have a statement ready. Bristol....are you still working on that?
ReplyDeleteI suppose since Meg is into all the scandals herself, Mrs. Palin must feel she won't talk.
ReplyDeleteOr will she?
The real question is: What desperate soul would hit that?
ReplyDeletemxm @ 11:24
ReplyDeleteBingo!
...also, OT, but remember Pie Sky LLC? ...for the "elderly and persons with disabilites...(persons, as in the plural of person.
I don't recall right off hand--but did MS have her fingers in this particular pie?
"...the family...is comfortable speaking in their own voice" -- said by a non-family source. Jeepers!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Meg penned the Family Guy facebook note, signed by Sarah and Bristol, and is getting thrown under the bus for the bad press the note generated. That and the bad press from the Rahm/Limbaugh hypocrisy.
I also wonder if Meg knew about the fake pregnancy. She wasn't working with Palin during that period. The 2 baby revelation would be a huge smack for a close associate that had been in the dark.
Did anyone else notice that Sullivan said of Sarah: "while HAVING CUSTODY of an infant with down syndrome." HAVING CUSTODY OF? Hmm, what does Sullivan know? And what did Levi say in that green room?
ReplyDeleteMost physical therapists, whether single practitioners or working in groups, provide Rx pads citing their particular services for physicians who then fill in the modalities they want their patients to undergo. It is like a to-go menu of services that restaurants pass out for home or office use. All PT's do PT and most restaurants have sandwiches, but having Rx/menu pads of their own allow these businesses to state the different services available from both. In summary, I don't think Rx pads are a side business of Eric's, rather his list of services available for order by doctors.
ReplyDeleteI imagine Meg wants to spend more time with Isabella, BEFORE any potential "confinement" that may be forthcoming.
ReplyDeleteGryphen, thank you. You've worked hard in the past on some points of interest that had to be dropped; and I'm very glad to see the photo proofs of the ears here on your blog. I'm praying for your safety.
ReplyDeleteTo 'notafaux' @10:53 a.m.: I agree that Fred Malek is the power behind $arah's royal charade, and I also agree that the ear photos catalyzed this activity. For some reason, Malek has given Meg orders to let go of $arah's leash and move away from her. I will not be the least bit surprised if $arah meets a sudden end this week. Nor would it surprise me if this development is the reason why Rex Butler kept Levi away from Van Flein's office today. It will take a resounding act to de-fuse this week of flares that illustrate $arah's pathology!
anon @12:31 - when hubby drops out of a race, he HURRIES to get away from the track. So do other top team members.
ReplyDeleteI do not like it - seems we should stay to congratualate the winner - but I don't call those shots.
She is going to have to hire someone who is willing to lie for her like the guy that had John edwards mistress living with his family.hey i bet that guy is looking for a job .
ReplyDeleteIt's good to see that Bristol's PR firm is all over Meg's announcement.
ReplyDeleteA more inexperienced PR firm might have squandered the opportunity to message Meg's departure in a way that was favorable to Ms. Palin.
Hey Sarah, how's your comfort level NOW?
Thanks for posting the video clip, Gryphen!
ReplyDeleteLes Gara stayed calmed and centered while Meg became increasingly defensive and angry.
Very impressive, and heartening to know that Walt Monegan was being defended in public and Palin was being called on her crazy BS reasons for firing a decent guy.
Could it be that Meg has seen the writing on the wall that Sister Sarah does not have a chance in heck of being president so now is the time to jump off the dung wagon?
ReplyDeleteOr does Meg has inside information that the palin is about to hit the fan and wants to distance herself from the grifters?
If someone had pointed their finger at me the way Meg was doing to Les Gara I don't know if I could restrain myself. The smirk and very agressive hand movements were infuriating
ReplyDeleteSince Meg is the one who brought Malek to Palin, does this mean that Malek is finished with Sarah now? Sure is weird that he was the one to make the announcement.
ReplyDeleteI remember the video of Rep. Gara well, thank you for re-posting! I sent Rep. Gara some fan mail after seeing this last year and called him an Alaskan hero.
ReplyDeleteSlippery, slimy, sleazy, slithering, slit-eyed Meg - good riddance!
Gryphen: I won't watch that video again and you can't make me ... that's when I really knew who and what Megamouth Stapletongue was like (and yet I still thought she might be able to save herself - NOPE she got meaner!) OT (maybe, then again...) what does Andrew Halcro's blog mean to you today? Check it out. I don't know how to link/embed or I would.
ReplyDeleteOn the list of usual suspects for a replacment is RAM. Found this info at "The Fix" on the Washington Post.
ReplyDeleteMeg Stapleton....you can go to hell and back for what you did to the management of Matanuska Maid Dairy and also Walt Monegan. You KNOW you told despicable lies. The staged ambush on Mat Maid was a scene right out of "West Wing". Two national authors know the truth and are writing about it.
ReplyDeleteYour filmed episode with Les Gara will also come to roost. Walt Monegan, as you well KNOW, is an honorable man and did not deserve what YOU did to him You sicken me.
Just as a reminder....KARMA is a bitch and it is headed YOUR way, you worthless piece of crap.
"Any professional has to be judged by success, and by any measure, Team Palin has been an enormous success," Malek told CNN. "As Governor Palin's principle aide during this awesome rise, she has been a one woman band and deserves much credit and admiration." A ONE WOMAN BAND??! AWESOME RISE? ENORMOUS SUCCESS? NOT. This is ridiculous. And from the article on CNN (yes, I went over on a link, yuk, hate CNN) "a global political celebrity whose every word is analyzed..." She is a global clown!
ReplyDeleteDid Meg have enough or did FOX advise Sarah that Meg is small potatoes and need someone more polished?
ReplyDeleteIf Bristol takes over for Meg then we know FOX had nothing to do with it.
An apology to all Alaskans: Only being aware of Sarah Palin and Ted Stevens, I assumed all your politicians were corrupt wingnuts. But Les Gara - YOU DO INDEED ROCK!
ReplyDelete@ L.A. in SF -- yes, I did catch Andrew's wording and found it interesting
ReplyDeletecontinued:
ReplyDelete...it was reported that Pie Sky LLC docs were faxed from Stapleton's husband's Rebound Sports office...
LLC belonging to BP... Marketing....Disabled persons... Faxed from Rebound Sports.
Oh, nevermind...there's nothing here to look at! Move along, move along...lol
You're the man Les!
ReplyDeleteStapletongue can crawl back to some backwater redneck state for all I care. She has NO credibility in Alaska anymore.
Anon 12:19
ReplyDeletere:prescription pads for doctors!
Thats beyond strange to me. Wonder if it is code for something more nefarious? Prescription pads are really specialty items now with watermarks and tamperproof features. Also they are going by the wayside in many practices, replaced with electronic scripts faxed right to point of care be it pharmacy, therapy, hospital.
Could just be a benign side business - a home care agency i worked for as a nursing supervisor had a med supply company as well. But with Wasilla being so drug infested,this raises my eyebrows.
"Sarah" just posted something re: health care on her FaceBook page...not a single mention of MS leaving. On the bright side..had to share this comment one of her "fans" left her...
ReplyDeleteSarah, did you really write this yourself? Congrats! When you speak in public it usually comes out as garbled gibberish, like you're stupid or something. But this is crisp, well-organized and syntactically immaculate. You rock!!!

ReplyDeleteA menu of services offered by the pt/ot office is one thing.Prescrition pads have to have the doctors name on them. So, you mean he supplies scripts for specific doctors with PT/OT services already on them that his company provides?
I guess it is a good marketing tool, if that is what they do.
Am I imagining things, or did Gryphen have a post up several weeks ago that there was a female "close to Palin" that was very upset and near breaking point?
ReplyDeleteSome speculated on that thread that Gryphen was talking about Meg.
I would love to read that post again, but don't know where to find it.
Constant scandals and head-spinning, hard to keep up - which is what SP is counting on.
I am feeling a need to prioritize the issues:
CBJ and unwillingness to say she delivered Trig - and brought her attorney to ADN interview. Phil M. says CBJ should clear her name - I agree.
Baby in kitchen and at staged baby shower NOT the Trig we see now - WHY?
Recently-released e-mails per FOIA
show Todd was acting as governor.
Cabins on property when Palins put zero value for improvements - hid from taxman that structures even existed.
Housegate - who built the house?
AK Fund Trust - where are promised quarterly reports?
Head spinning - shiny new scandals every day to take away our focus.
Spend time with her 2 year old? Well, she will be going in with a lot of experience after dealing with Sarah.
ReplyDeleteWhy should Palin pay Meg for her services, when she can get Piper to do it gratis?
ReplyDeleteBesides, Piper can microwave dinner, look after Tri-G and clip her ladyship's toenails.
Meg always whined when she had to do the toenails.
Many of us remember the days when Meg was charming, respected and a favored voice in broadcasting. I fear more of us will remember Meg as the vindictive, callous, shrill, deceitful little person with eyes flashing, spewing hate once her association with sp began to overtake the old Meg. I will never, ever forgive her for the horrendous attack on Walt Monegan, a respected, respectful, decent man. When she has the decency to publicly, and privately, apologize to Walt, his mother, his wife and family, my heart may begin to soften toward her, but I'm not sitting here holding my breath. Next, she can apologize to Levi for her attacks on this 19 year old young man fighting to be able to parent his child while she's just noticing she has a child of her own with an absent parent. Time lost with a child can never be replaced, Meg, I just hope it was all worth it to you and you really take it seriously, stay close to home, spend every moment you can with your precious child and be grateful she's still there for you to parent. And, yes, your "saint of a husband" who has stayed back to hold the fort, parent your daughter and, possibly, know the extent of the trail of broken spirits left under "The Bus" and your involvement with same. Hopefully, time will heal. I just hope you can, one day, come close to the sweet and beloved Meg that was......
ReplyDeleteAnon @ 3:35: "Meg always whined when she had to do the toenails."

Oops, sorry--Pie Spy, not Pie Sky...which makes it even more...what? Sinister?

Wasn't Meg up to her ears in that one?
I have not had time to read all these posts yet, but are we SURE that the ruffled ear baby is male? When did Meg have her baby? What do her child's ears look like? Could that have been the "borrowed" baby?
ReplyDeleteI, too, will never forget what SP and MEG did to Alaska's beloved Walt Monegan. Shame shame shame Meg!

ReplyDeletecomment from cesspool throwing Meg under bus already:
wisetrog
"Let's also not forget that meg was out of depth during the Rush Limbaugh retard quote fracas. A better handler would have pointed to the media that Rush was a private citizen while Rahm was not. She wouldn't post an asinine quote and then run around trees to get Rush's number to pacify him. You don't take the wind out of Palin's sails that way and you don't put her on the line like that."
They have always idolized Meg (saps) - and now Meg "took the wind out of Palin's sails?"
Meg chose to sacrifice the first two crucial years of her child's life on the altar of Palin's pathological narcissism. If she ever does fully comprehend what she's done, it will be a cruel realization and one she has only herself to blame for.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, I cannot wait for Palin to start 'speaking in her own voice!' If her tweets are any indication, it should be wonderfully--and accidentally--entertaining.
Maybe p is curled in fetal position and unable to read her palm.
ReplyDeleteI love it, her miracle child and saint of a husband bwaaaaahhhaaaa.
ReplyDeleteIt's fine to abandon your family to be the mouthpiece for all things dysfunctional. Meg, those two years you missed with Isabella, all the money in the world won't get them back.
I do like the digs at the Palin clan, though. I'd buy your book if you were more honest about Sarah.
Sayin "Bye and thanks" and awl would be an empathetic civil thing to do. I'd be shocked to see anything like that.
ReplyDeleteI have a question about the "first" photos with the Heaths and Sarah & Todd, where Trig (or "Trig"?) seems to be sound asleep.
ReplyDeleteI remember taking cute pictures of my daughters when they were asleep, as pictures of sleeping babies. But I don't remember holding up a sleeping baby for the first photographs of the baby with important relatives.
In a picture like that, I'd expect an awake baby, with eye contact.
Is it just that Sarah doesn't appear to mind babies being quiet and sedate/sedated, as the photos of Trig at many early gatherings seems to show?
How fitting that Meg's a quitter too.
ReplyDeleteMeg has fouled her nest in Alaska and there is nowhere left for this shrew (maybe "rat" is the better word) to go. Good riddance. Just sit down and shut up. We pray that you don't pass on your corrupt character and vicious tongue to your poor, innocent daughter who now must spend more time with you.
ReplyDeleteThe more I read about her, the more I think she's just a vile person. I'm glad her daughter had two years without her constant presence.
ReplyDeleteAs Gryphen stated in reference to the video, "Les Gara rocked didn't he?" Yes he did! Meg slithered back and forth in her attempt to obfuscate and confuse.
ReplyDelete
