Unaired footage of "Sarah Palin sees Alaska for the very first time" show Sister Sarah purchasing caribou tags for her hunting episode. Well isn't THAT interesting?



I just received this from "Anonymous" in the comments section:

Thanks to the production team’s diligence, here’s proof that Sarah had all her paperwork in order with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. The entire episode was recorded September 1-5, 2010. This video was recorded on September 2, 2010, and the permits purchased were valid September 3-4, 2010, because of the no fly and hunt rule. Sarah shot her caribou on September 4, 2010.

And here is the video, which was just put up today, that show Palin purchasing her caribou tags at the Wasilla Fred Meyers. (Also by the way an EXCELLENT place to purchase food to put into your freezer.  I ma just saying.)

Okay there is snow on the ground in Alaska so the outside portion could NOT have been filmed recently, but something about this seems a little too staged for my critically thinking brain to accept at face value.

Any thoughts?

Update:  For those asking about the "no hunting on the day you fly in rule" yes that is the rule in Alaska:

(By Alaska regulation you can’t hunt the same day you fly)

As for the question of whether Sarah could have purchased tags to hunt in "any unit we decide to be in" I am not yet sure about that, but I have sent the video to those who know more about hunting in Alaska than I do to get their take.

BTW here is the link to the TLC website that features whit video and explains that it IS indeed in response to online question about whether Sarah had the proper license and tags to hunt caribou.  So THIS is most definitely an attempt at damage control.

Let's see if we can derail it.

    Of course it was staged. It was filmed as a part of the production of the show; it merely wound up on the cutting room floor.

    It's obviously staged because there are NO PEOPLE shopping in this store.

    I have to wonder who thought this would be an exciting scene to add to Sarah's Unreality Show. What a snooze fest.

    Is this the way one buys tags? Just walk in and say, "I want four caribou tags?" A dozen? Two dozen?

    And why four? Was someone else supposed to go along? Or was the fourth tag for the guy who actually downed the poor animal, Liberty Valance style?

    One thing that shows her ignorance and the ignorance of the clerk is when Sarah asked if those tags were good for any unit she wanted to hunt in. The answer is no, not the yes that the clerk stated. Some hunts are registration hunts and still others are drawing hunts. A harvest ticket will not allow you to hunt in either of those other hunts.

    She sure had high hopes getting 5 caribou tickets and a moose ticket.

    Again, this screams out the fact that she isn't the "life-long" hunter she claims to be.

    She has to ask the clerk about filling out the forms and if she will be covered no matter which unit she chooses?

    Hunters have to purchase licenses and tags EACH and EVERY season they hunt. If is an avid, life-long hunter, filling out those forms would be rote to her!

    Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit!

    In September, Malia Littmann did a lot of research that showed Palin hadn't had a license for at least 3 years. She did, however, find proof of her father's license and Todd's license. I think that Sarah called someone who backdated her license for her to show it was received in July. Nobody ever said she didn't get that necessary tags to hunt. It was the license that was in question and it just so happens that this was allegedly filmed right before Littmann's post went up.

    Malia is pretty damn careful in her research. How could this have happened? Because Palin did not actually have a license at that time and this was more than likely filmed later than September if there was snow on the ground.

    I don't hunt, but I thought it was weird how she said "maybe a sheep tag, no a moose tag" like she was picking meat out of a cooler. Aren't sheep in the mountains not the tundra? Would the sheep and caribou be in the same area? Would you not know what you were hunting for??? Also, it seems like she would lose a lot of credibility to outsiders if they showed her going into a fancy big grocery store which surely has lots of meat but she has to hunt to get meat for her family....

    I call BS. She asks all the questions that would clear her of the allegations. She mentions her hunting license at least twice. And they zoom in on the form she's filling out. I can't imagine TLC would be stupid enough to not make sure she had a license, but that video is very contrived. Plus getting it anonymously is shady too. Did TLC authorize it's use I wonder. And all of the trolls showing up makes it shady too. You should head down to that store to see if you can talk to the clerk. I'm sure she would remember the filming. It if's legit, it still doesn't explain why she didn't having a hunting license in previous years if she's really such an avid hunter and really feeds her family from the hunts.

    I'll believe it when the film is released by TLC not some anonymous palinbot.

    Can we at least see the picture of you in your hospital bed in your hospital gown, holding your newborn little gift from God, Trig? Did Todd's camera malfunction? Oh that's right; you were in such a hurry blasting back from TX that you didn't have a camera with you.

    The reason Sarah keeps running circles around you and other bloggers is because when you have a good idea, you write about it for everyone, including Sarah, to see. You need to act first, then write!!

    Example: someone wondered whether Sarah had a license to hunt caribou. A thouogh search would have provided the answer BEFORE writing about it to tip her off.

    It's possible this wasn't filmed until after the hunt. I really can't see Sarah going in herself to take care of such a mundane task. That's what her servants, oops, staff are for. They may have filmed this later in order to cover their butts about not have a license.

  53. The video is staged. She brought the camera guy along and arrived at an almost empty store, looking like she'd never purchased tags before and barely understood the procedure. I do think we can put to rest speculation that she didn't have tags.

    Could someone finally and decisively clarify the issuance of Caribou licenses? I mean, DO YOU have a lottery, or not? If YES, how is it possible to fill out a form like Payme did and get a license for not just ONE, but for FIVE caribou? Also, too, wouldn't the license have to be in the individuals' name, not just in ONE persons name? (Or, did she intend to actually shoot FIVE caribou???)

    It isn't about the her license. As usual Palin misses the point. SHE IS A PHONY! She did not have a license the previous two years because she is not a hunter. She only got this one (maybe--I think this was staged) because she wanted to punk the general public that she was a hunter.

    Still---FAIL. If Sarah has to make a big deal out of it, she is getting desperate and pitiful. And well, she's a liar so I never believe anything she does or says. Poor ole Caribou Barbie.

What is the information on that one? How many tags were bought for the show and whose name is on them? Would they just sell 4 tags to one person? Here in the elite northeast - a moose tag is one per customer and it is a lottery system. If the purchaser does not tag a moose then no one else can use the tag. Their names and tag numbers are all listed on the state's Fish and Game site.

    The video is as legit as any reality show B roll. I mean the camera didn't happen to be there. I think this footage was edited because it is pretty boring. She had to have a license to get tags.

    A hunting license is just a piece of paper that you get every calender year that allows you to hunt in Alaska. it is good for one year and i think costs $25 for residents.

    Tags are animal specific (and in the case of drawing hunts, hunt specific). Tags are generally free and are filled out when the animal is taken. You must have a license to get tags. The license number is written on the tag and verified by the vendor. The vendor then puts your name, license number and tag numbers in their book.

    There is no "lottery" or drawing for caribou in most of Alaska. Same with sheep and moose. Caribou can be found in mountain passes where there are sheep above. Often times hunters will get "just in case" sheep and moose or bear tags if they are hunting in areas where the seasons overlap. That way, if they happen to see a legal animal of the other species, they can take it.

    For those who don't know Alaskan hunting law, here's the deal with licenses and tickets and tags.

    In Alaska a resident BUYS a license and then the harvest tickets are free. Some Brown Bear hunts and Muskox hunts require a locking tag. If you are hunting a general season hunt, you go to a license dealer and ask for the appropriate harvest tickets for the game you want to harvest. You fill out a form and the serial # of your ticket is recorded on your license. Part of the form you keep to report your hunting activity for the year, and the other part is sent to ADF&G so they have a record of who hunted and who didn't report. If you don't report, you can lose your hunting privileges and be fined. This is a tool by which ADF&G can measure hunter success and the general age and sex of the animals taken. It helps tell them if the herd is healthy or if particular units might have a problem.

    Now many people pick up their tickets at the time they purchase their license, but not all by any means so Sarah going in for tickets after she had already purchased her license is no big deal. Some times people don't plan on hunting a certain species at the time they buy their license.

    Anyway, if you are planning on hunting a general season hunt, you get harvest tickets which are good for any particular general season hunt that is open. Not all have the same bag limit as others. Some may have a one animal bag limit and others 5. Some caribou hunts have a 5 per day limit. Some have a 10 caribou limit for the season. You have to read the regs for the unit you are hunting to find the bag limit.

    Then there are the registration hunts and the drawing hunts. Make note, Sarah wasn't hunting one of these. These hunts are for a specific area, many times a small part of one of the larger hunting units. The registration hunts are usually hunts the biologists want to keep a close handle on but still let as many hunters as possible have a crack at them. On registration hunts, you go into a local fish and game office and register and are given specific rules for the hunt. Many times you have to report back to the biologist after harvesting an animal and give them a jaw bone for aging the animal or having a skull sealed or in the case of goats and sheep, having the horns measured. You usually need to report a kill withing a specified time after harvesting too so the biologist knows they are getting close to the desired harvest level and can close the season by emergency order.

    On a drawing hunt, you apply for a lottery chance at drawing a tag for an animal. This is usually done in an area where the bio wants strict control over the number of hunters in the field and the harvest level. Some animals such as sheep and bears are subject to over-harvest rather easily so to prevent that bios decide how many animals harvested they want to allow to keep the herd up and they don't allow extra hunters in the area. For other species such as moose or caribou, there may be small areas that have a small population that can't take too much pressure so they make it a drawing hunt. One hunt I can think of off the top of my head is the Kenai Peninsula Caribou hunt. Some drawing hunts are for the purpose of creating trophy areas such as the Tok management area Sheep hunt. Besides being a drawing area keeping the number of hunters down, you also have guidelines for the size of the horns on the animal you take. This allows young animals to get old and big for trophy hunting.

    Now you know more than you wanted to know about hunting in Alaska.

    AS I said, Sarah was legal for the hunt she was on with a license and a harvest ticket. Don't give her ammo to make critics look bad by throwing out false information about her. It only makes her look good and you look bad. There is enough bad stuff that she does that you don't need to make stuff up like she does.

    I'm an Alaskan hunter...i posted earlier about the ins and outs of licenses and tags.

    Caribou aren't that wary. Nothing like deer in the lower 48. They just don't get hunted that much in most areas so they don't associate people noises with bad things. They are mainly worried about wolves and bears, not people. You usually can make a lot of noise (4 wheelers, snowmachines, shooting) and not spook them unless you are closer than 100 yds.

    I've seen three guys drop three caribou out of a herd while the rest just milled around. Multiple shots didn't really affect them. I've also taken multiple shots at animals and had them not move...it just happens sometimes. You misjudge the wind, you're cold and shaking, you just miss sometimes. Sometimes the animal will just watch you.

    Looking at the footage, I think they have her at something like that range...it's hard to tell but in a flat shooting rifle that is sighted in at 100 yards you would want to have your client be in that 200-100 yd sweet spot so they wouldn't have to adjust their point of aim.

    You need a hunting license to hunt small and big game in the state. You can purchase that at any time in the calendar year before hunting.

    Note that Sarah already has her hunting license, she is only going for the (free) harvest tags for caribou (five caribou bag limit up north where she was going) and moose (1 moose bag limit everywhere in the state).

    Not sure what makes you think this was in Sept. All they say is it's "the 2nd."

  84. Wow. Just watched the little clip. Can one person purchase multiple tags? For other people? She asked for "5 caribou and one moose."

    If random people can purchase random numbers of tags, how does the state regulate this? When the tags are all gone, no more are sold? What if someone buys multiples and doesn't use them. Doesn't this kind of mess up stats?

    A license is like a general permit giving one the right to hunt during the season. A tag, however, is required in addition for specific game. AKA "stamps" in some states.

    Let's see the shot of Sarah actually shooting the caribou. I want to see her pull the trigger, hear the shot and watch the animal fall all in the same frame. We see one and then the other, but that's no proof that Sarah hit the animal. She had already missed several shots.

    While Sarah is busy refudiating any comment made about her, let's see Trig's birth certificate and Sarah's complete medical records, including the two "white outs." Let's see what Bristol looks like today, right now, where is she anyway?

    And, since Sarah edits all of her own material (she was a journalism major), how come this wasn't included in the "reality show" and instead, we watch Sarah miss a couple of shots and show that she could not load the rifle. Didn't she even think to take a couple of practice shots before they started filming?

    The no fly/hunt rule states that you can't hunt certain species the same day as you were airborne. This prevents hunters from flying to spot game, then landing next to it and shooting it. Gives the hunters too much of an advantage. When you fly, you have to wait til the next day at legal shooting hours to hunt.

    Some species such as deer are exempt from that rule.

    omomma and others

    It is hard to describe the sort of hunting abundance we have in Alaska to people in the lower 48 accustomed to limited hunts or once in a lifetime tags. In many areas of the state it is 5 caribou per person. No lottery. One moose per year - no lottery. Five black bears - no lottery. One sheep - no lottery. 5 blacktail deer - no lottery. It is true that there are drawing hunts for "special areas" but musk ox and bison are the only species that is lottery only.

    You don't purchase tags, they give them to you. You show your hunting license (I think that's why she's talking about it) or they look up your number for you, and your drivers license. When you bag an animal, you notch and attach the tear off part of the tag to a bag of meat - usually the one with proof of sex attached.

    Yes, random people buy random tags. Regardless of hunting success, you have to remember to fill in the mail in part and send it to fish and game. Lots of people forget so they send you a reminder card in the spring. That is how they keep their harvest statistics.

    Some areas have a lotto. It all depends on how much game the warden has assured there are that year.

    Don't you buy as many "tags" as the number of game you could shoot? 5 would be her maximum caribou she could shoot. I have no idea. I don't hunt. I only have watched and helped with the after process, as Sarah and family has probably done. Though I still believe she has shot at least one before, even if it were when she was a teenager. Shes never claimed to be a pro hunter, we must remember. Too often the commentary on blogs blows things out of proportion.

    Yes - it is staged. She is narrating what is happening it for a TV show. That isn't how we usually interact with clerks. This isn't hidden film footage. There likely was a storyboard with "Sarah goes into the Fred Meyer, buys her tags and chit chats with the clerk" for this shot.

    She mentions the license because a lot of the time you buy it when you get your tags. If you already have it, you have to dig it out and put the number on the tags.

    In this context, "staged" doesn't equate to "faked". It was likely released to counter the claim that she illegally shot the caribou but that doesn't make it fake - just not very good TV.

    What I'm most surprised at is not seeing Andrea Gutsy in the video.

    Personally I'm going to assume she had the proper licenses. TLC would probably see to that (one would think.) What is interesting is that this video mysteriously appears out of nowhere following speculation on anti-Palin websites. Why? Probably because this is something she can refute.

    She can't refute that she is obviously is not any kind of of a hunter. My guess is she probably cringed when TLC asked her to do an episode on hunting with Dad.

    I imagine hunting with Dad is the part of her childhood she probably would love to put behind her. Remember the highlight of Palin's life was meeting Ivana Trump at a cosmetic counter. Her years pulling fish and following her blood-crazed Dad around are probably the reason she has worked so darn hard to reinvent herself into the strange person she is today.

    Is the scene faked? Sure. It's reality TV.

    Did she not have a hunting license? Not so sure, but as with a birth certificate one would think the easiest way to stop speculation is to offer real proof, not some staged photo op,

    I will say that her outrage at DC and this admin isn't far from middle America's outrage, her voice is just louder because thats how Sarah rolls. Dirty things are presently occurring in Washington and without loud mouths like Sarah, this country would currently be worse off than it is now. She helps Fox spread the truth. Like people say here, there's always truth behind allegation. Ok, maybe not in terms of divorce rumors or kids problems (if so, the obamas wouldnt even be married), But in govt, Obama knows EXACTLY what he's doing.

    He's a master at pitting one class against the other, making people feel bad for not supporting his atrocious HCR bill and immoral Dream Act. He plays the race card every chance he gets if that is what will garner him votes. All this man's ever done with his life is run for office and build his support team.

Sarah loves to prove people wrong, and for close to three years she has had numerous opportunities to leak pictures, documents, personal accounts from friends, etc which would prove that she did.

    Moose are very abundant compared to caribou in Alaska. Yesterday, a nice cow moose was in my front yard - I live in very high density housing just off of the Seward Highway in South Anchorage. Around here, lots of moose and bear - no caribou.

    I've only seen two caribou in nearly 30 years - about 200 miles northeast of here (although many in the Yukon) all these years. I cover the road system in the summers, about 10,000 miles per four months - lots of opportunity to see what's there.

    Does anyone else think it's weird that with all the cameras on site that there were no shots of Palin and the caribou in the same frame? All your hunting shows show an angle of the hunter and their perspective to the animal. This gives the viewer the range and feel of the actual hunt.

    My suspicion is that the caribou that was shot the night before is the same one that is shown being field dressed. The antlers brought back by the guide were a decoy and the caribou in the scene with Palin is stock footage.

    While busy trying to give video "proof" that she did have a hunting tag, she doesn't seem to understand that her unfamiliarity with the process made it abundantly clear that getting her own tags is a process she doesn't understand. Probably because hunting has never been something she does.

    She didn't seem to understand the tag process at all; pretty much the same way she didn't know how to reload her gun and had to have her daddy reach over and reload it for shot after shot.

    Oh by the way in addition there has been so much Buzz on the internet talking about Bristol is pregnant.So far I have not heard from Bristol, Sarah and Palibots swinging back at their critics to say they are lying.
    The BS of License to Hunt is not as damaging as puting to rest, the Trig story, and the current Bristol Pregnant Rumor. So do not get too excited. The world is waiting to see the proof of Sarah giving birth to Trig. Period.


    Thank you..

    Just an after thought to my previous comment. Why would this whole thing be shot the way it was shot. After all Palin is trying to prove her outdoor skills. Why would the producer not show the whole shooting thing in one frame.This would have been the money shot for Palin. As it is it speaks fake.

    THAT is exactly what we have been saying about President Obama's BC, except that he DID post it.

    A 14 day pregnancy? Hmmm. Too bad Bristol didn't inherit them "tight abs" from $arah.

    Just one more question because I came to party late.

    If she was not the one who actually killed the caribou, can she claim it as a kill?

    Would there have been a licensed hunter with the crew (I assume so)? If he or she killed the caribou instead of Sarah, would he or she have to claim the hit instead of Sarah?

    Or does it matter who does what as long as one person has the license? I seem to remember Todd's big stink about his brother-in-law taking game without a license - using Sarah's Dad's license as a cover. Or am I misremembering.

    Oh, well, whatever. Sarah is doing a great job of bringing herself down even without us. Hurray!

    The exterior shot could have been filmed in mid-September because that's when the existence of a hunting license was first publicly questioned.

    As soon as Sarah enters the store we hear her say "Hi" and someone, presumably the clerk, says "Hi" back. Problem though, because the store has two sets of doors. Sarah says "Hi" as soon as she passes through the first. Look carefully and you will see that the second set is closed. In fact she walks right up to them and they never open. So Sarah says "Hi" to a closed door and the door answers back!

    Also exterior Sarah looks different than interior Sarah. Look at how she wears her hoodie. And it's no accident that we hear Sarah say the date but what we see is a closeup of her hand.

    The magic of editing. Nice try though TLC.

    o/t but I just listened to Rex Butler on Eddie Burke's old show. WOW! What an idiot!!! Rex, not Eddie, even thought the same can be said about him as well.

    Levi is fucked for life unless he drops Rex and Tank. But for him to do that, he'd need average intelligence and I'm pretty sure all his intellect was in his nutsack, which Bristol proudly hangs on her rearview mirror. Levi needs serious soul searching. and a good role model. and a family whom he feels loves him.

    Anonymous @ 8:42 a.m., if Sarah was running circles around anyone, she'd be ignoring all the truthful comments about her, the calling out on her lies, the criticisms that she reacts to without thinking, etc. She ALWAYS reacts and in doing so proves that everything that is said about her that is negative or critical in any manner drives her absolutely crazy! Or I should say, makes her crazier than she ever was prior to this!

    She's obsessed with all the bloggers, journalists and most of all, President Obama. I really think she has forgotten that she was running for V.P., not President. Poor, delusional Sarah was talking about how it would be Todd working beside her in the White House while campaigning in 2008. She's a joke!

    As Rick at 10:57 said, let's not accuse her of not having the licenses/tags if she did. Makes us look bad.

    Isn't it ironic that one needs a license to drive and hunt, or to change the wiring in your house, but no license is needed to do such a huge thing as have a child. Except in China, I guess. And unless one adopts, in which case you have bureaucrats crawling all over you.

    So if we were on the trail of her license to have Trig, I would be interested, but she has done so many deceitful things that the hunting stuff seems pretty tame to me.

    Every pregnant woman visitis the doctors to check the baby and mother's progress, including Ultra sounds. You should have those records. Why go to the trouble of buying a ghost writer to explain Trig's birth.

    I have to wonder if any of the kids said to her, "Hey Sarah, where's my share of the $250k per episode for appearing in your campaign commercial?" The one most likely to do so would be Willow. Also, does anyone know what Track is doing? Is he showing that famous Palin family work ethic? You know, grift from others rather than actually do a day's work for a day's wages? We've heard Bristol bragging about making more money in one night than one of her Alaskan buddies makes in a year. Piper is too little to spend much money on her own although those highlighting streaks in her hair weren't done for free despite how inappropriate they are for a nine year old! Just another example of what a crappy mother Palin has been and still is!

  164. Okay. So her going inside is the right time of year.

    Is there any reason to think she couldn't put on the same outfit and they could refilm the inside with a bribed salesperson or any actor and shoot that and then edit them together?

    And what is with that dialogue? No one talks like that. Not even Sarah. Not in real life. It sounds like it was purposefully designed to undermine the criticisms of the show.

    Which won't work.

    They don't have enough outtakes to do that. And they don't have enough time to manufacture and edit outtakes to cover all of the criticism.

    I'd like to know if she was purchasing five caribou tags or five entries in the caribou tag lottery. One form was green (moose) and one was pink (caribou).

    Anyone in Alaska know?

    Is it always that empty at big stores in Alaska. Nobody around outside, nobody around inside. There wasn't any vehicle traffic either. School is starting and no traffic. Usually stores are jammed with folks wandering around with school lists. Way too clean to be real.

    There is no "lottery" for caribou except in very limited areas. Any Alaskan resident can get 5 of those pink tags and shoot 5 caribou from most herds. I think western arctic may allow you 20 if you are head of household. No special permit, no special lottery or drawing, you just get your tags and resident license and you can shoot pretty much all the caribou you want to haul (or fly) back.

    If anyone wants to do some self analysis - we should wonder why we wanted this so badly to be a game violation (btw - guides always check tags and licenses) that we wasted a whole frigging day on this "canard".

    The footage is from Sept. 2. It is the Sept 2 ADN in the racks in the background. Look here:

  168. I'll sum this up that Sarah, "I eat therefore I hunt", Palin did not have licenses for 2008. 2009 and none in 2010 until Sept. 2nd days prior to her big hunting episode.

    The release of this is for damage control. Do they have similar footage for previous years the great story teller did not need licenses?

    If she bought a tag for a female caribou that had to be found and shot within a couple of days, with absolutely no leeway, it is proof certain that that poor animal was drugged or staked out where Palin could find her.

    Even macho-man-miller takes a week to go hunting.

    Did she put her supposed license number and name on *all* those tags? Isn't the actual hunter supposed to fill out their own tag and form and sign it? Or did Sarah Nimrod expect to fly over a vast herd, land near enough, and go out next day at dawn like Blam-Blam Cheney on his staged hunts?

    And her questions? She has OBVIOUSLY never bought a tag before and only bought them now to try to avert public condemnation. Well, Sarah... it's too late for that!

    You are a poacher from a family of poachers. And everybody from a hunting family knows what a sleaze and incompetent gun-handler you are.

    You don't own your own gun, you don't know how to load a gun (and undoubtedly can't take it apart for cleaning, either), you don't know whether the gun will kick, you don't know how to aim it, you don't know enough about safety to keep your damned finger off the trigger before you accidentally shoot your father or husband, and we'll never believe that you finally shot that poor victim of a caribou on the 6th attempt.

    :PTUI!:

    As for this convenient video? It is worse than ignoring the controversy over your poaching. Faking evidence is obstructing justice. There are laws against that. You are a practiced faker, and have been since your father first taught you how to cheat, but you really, really, REALLY are bad at it.

    I can't stand Palin and her fakery, and I have posted before that it is clear this was her first time hunting and she knows diddly-squat about it or gun handling. HOWEVER, the statement about is totally wrong. Its not hard to find a caribou if you know where to go, they are dumb as a post, and if you can afford to be flown in and babied to the right spots like she was, it doesn't take a week. She bought first class treatment for her, her dad and her dad's friend, and the two men did everything for her but wipe her nose.
