Imagine our surprise when reading media reports today that the “One Nation Tour” has been cancelled. Why didn’t anyone tell me? Oh, wait, that’s because it hasn’t been cancelled. (Good ol’ media… you never cease to amaze!)
As I said myself at the end of the east coast leg of the tour, the summer is long, and I’m looking forward to hitting the open road again. The coming weeks are tight because civic duty calls (like most everyone else, even former governors get called up for jury duty) and I look forward to doing my part just like every other Alaskan.
I wouldn’t think it to be such a slow news day that, what with numerous wars and serious economic woes concerning Americans, a bus is driving news stories today. The next leg of the tour continues when the time comes. In the meantime, no one should jump to conclusions – certainly not the media with their long track record of getting things wrong or just making things up.
- Sarah Palin
She
Seriously? THAT is her excuse?
Which begs the question, does anybody really want a potential leader of this country who can't even manage to get out of jury duty?
Love the picture Gryph. Looks like her wig is about to fly off her head.
ReplyDeleteJury duty is no joke. It is a duty for all. Lets stop trying to read into her every move. Its what she LOVES. And who built her house by the dead lake in Wasilla? and #twiai
ReplyDeletethat woman is STILL an idiot.
That is utter unadulterated bull crap!
ReplyDeleteI have delayed, rescheduled and rescheduled and rescheduled again, my jury duty for years. They give you the total option to do that. Legally, civicly, easily.
She is an lying, piece of shit ignoramus beyond all ignoramuses. How lame an excuse is that?
I know from personal experience, as I am sure MANY people do, that she has no 'written in stone' requirement for jury duty. I'm sure that Alaska is no different than any other state with regards to their cooperation and postposing jury duty.
Unflippinbelievable!
Oh - she looks so good and patriotic to all of us! Yuke!! Exactly the projection she is trying to make and, of course, to slam the media to include FOX.
ReplyDeleteWhy didn't she state the truth w/her first communique'? What a
f---ing asshole!
The woman sucks big time!
Now Gryphen, everone must do their civic duty--even if they did quit on their own state. I still don't think I'd want Sarah sitting on any jury I'd be attached to. She has the judgment of a feverish two year old.
ReplyDeleteBut if this is really the reason for the abbreviated clown bus tour stoppage and the reason the Sudanese are going to get a reprieve---I say, maybe there is a sky fairy watching out for us after all . . .
currently i've got nuthin' concerning the thread, BUT that pic of $carah at the top is again priceless !

Sarah Palin has put her stamp of approval on her daughter Bristol’s new book.
ReplyDeletePOLITICO's Maggie Haberman notes that the former Alaska governor tweeted Wednesday that "Bristol's new book 'Not Afraid of Life' is shocking, refreshing, honest, inspiring, and perfect."

Load of crap. She can get an extension. Nobody does jury duty in the summer unless they don't have a life. And she supposedly had prior obligations (the bus tour). She also knows (assuming she actually got a jury notice) that she won't be picked anyway, because she would disrupt the trial. So "jury duty" would come down to one day. Why doesn't she just admit that all that learnin' on the east coast at all those historic places just plum wore her out. She needs a long vacation after every vacation, dontcha know.
ReplyDeleteJury duty? Yeah right. Lame even for her. I bet she even went to the trouble of getting put on an actual jury duty list to avoid the humiliation the bus tour would surely bring her way.
ReplyDeleteThe next "leg" of the tour? It's not like she's in a space shuttle exploring other worlds. You just get in the bus and visit a couple cities, what's so hard about that? Her tour crapped out, and so the media rightly assumed it's over. Because really, if she gets back on that damn thing later on...who the f*ck cares?
ReplyDeleteBut Jury Duty? That's up there with Wine Coolers.
"the tour continues when the time comes"
ReplyDeleteWhy so mysterious, Scarah? She sounds like she relies on divine intervention. Why not admit you can't commit to a plan to save your life? Unless you're just waiting for the little voices in your head to tell you what to do.
PS I once got out of jury duty when I wasn't even trying; I just called to ask a question and they postponed my date. I was actually mad because I hated my job and I wanted the day off!
Sarah would have known for weeks if she really had received a jury notice. This last minute invention is just a way to keep her warriors pumped up and contributing.
ReplyDeleteI can imagine though with Parnell in the mansion Sarah could get her hands on a summons for a photo op.
Personally I find hilarity in SarahPAC without question paying Todd big bucks to be the campaign organizer for Palin 2012. LMAO the best he could get & loss to support Sarah in a national campaign was John Ziegler. We have nothing to do but sit back and watch the crazy played out.
PURE BULLSHIT~SHE IS doing some sort of damage control re: Prostitution Ring AND DIVORCE!
ReplyDeleteI just filled out my jury duty papers and postponed my civic duty from JUNE (my busy field season) to December! I have no attachments to the xmas season!
BULLSHIT YOU LYING BITCH! WE ALL know what you are up to.
NO ONE LIKES YOU: GO HOME AND STFU.
IF this is true (and i have my doubts) then i am glad she did not try to get out of it. she will probably never be selected as a juror from the pool, but no one should try to escape or postpone jury duty unless they have a really good excuse. i don't think a bus tour is a good excuse. i will give her credit on this one -- IF it is true!
ReplyDeleteBull crap. More Sarah BC. Thatcher's crowd dissed her, that's the reason you are not going to Sudan, Missy.
ReplyDeleteIF you have jury duty, you got the notice over a month ago, and can get an extension. Somehow, I doubt this whole BS story.
Funny she posts her Facebook screed the hour the President gives his speech. What a narcissist. And an idiot. Even my brother, a Palin fan has decided she is an idiot. And he is a dyed in the wool Rebublican from Bakersfield!
So the judge might have the power to sequester the jury? Hmmm...
ReplyDeleteOh my, how would she survive without a couple of blackberries on hand?
Even better, how would we survive without having Palin to laugh at every day?
Damn, I hope we get the opportunity to answer that last question.
Did anyone check to see if she requested to be put on a Jury in the Valley? I wouldn't put that past her at all. I just don't believe a damned thing she says...we've seen too much of her lies, manipulation and deceit in Alaska in just about EVERYTHING!!
ReplyDeleteSure looks clear to me Tripp loves his daddy. A smile from the first moment. Levi is holding him with care. This is the guy Bristol is calling a gnat?
ReplyDeletehttp://1.bp.blogspot.com/_d4ad6QlLNEE/TOxNH70oUnI/AAAAAAAAAt4/RrzqDp28jLU/s1600/levi+and+tripp+as+newborn.jpg
Levi appears super tired. I believe his version of supporting Bristol through her mood swings, tantrums, demands. Bristol was lucky to have this guy, until she screwed him over so badly he turned stupid.
Oh come on, Sarah, you can get more creative than that! Jury duty? Please. SERIOUSLY?
ReplyDeleteIt is as easy as pie to postpone your jury duty. I know since I have done it any number of times through the years. It's a 3 month delay and then another 3 month delay if you like. There are all kinds of sites on the net that explain exactly how and what to do, and in fact when I called in, the person at the jury duty center gave me a great education in how to work your jury schedule so that you don't EVER get called again. Yep! It's worked for me for 10 years now.
So she is a liar, and a loser. AND a quitter
oh ewwww, are those herpes blisters on her mouth?
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteWell she tee'd that one up really nicely. Now let's see if she REALLY has jury duty. Shouldn't be that hard to find out, right?
ReplyDeleteOf course Sarah loved Bristol's book. It has her fingerprints written all over it. The only person lazier than Sarah is Bristol, so you know her mom wrote it for her. The eight pregnancy tests, the wine coolers, Wooten. Maybe what the book really is is the true story of Sarah Palin that could not be included in Going Rouge. Seriously?! What teenager drinks wine coolers nowadays. Very old school. And, shit, how much of that do you have to drink to pass out?! A truckload, you wino.
ReplyDeleteWonder how many people will be executed by Judge and Jury, Hangin' Sarah Palin?
ReplyDelete"No mercy," is her mantra.
Hey G--Where is RAM? Any evidence she is still there?
ReplyDeleteThat is just a crock. I lived in Alaska for many years and managed to get called for jury duty every time I was booked for a vacation. Getting out of jury duty was easy, requiring answering a question stating why you could not serve. It never stopped me.
ReplyDeleteI don't believe in getting out of jury duty but I also know Alaskan courts are willing to work around people's planned trips. Rescheduling jury duty is a routine function that is not hard for prospective jurors to accomplish.
ReplyDeleteNo, Sarah the opportunist is using this as an excuse to abort her plans while buffing up her image as a public servant. For what reason, I could only guess. With her, it could be anything.
HAH! Love your wrap-up line Gryph. I happen to be looking at jury duty early August and have so far been too stupid to postpose it more than once.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, jury duty is a serious obligation that each citizen should take 'seriously'.
ReplyDeleteSecondly, no jury would chose her because she would try to quit the trial half way.
I think jury duty is a privilege but I sure as hell feel sorry for ANYONE on the jury with her or in any court case with her on the jury. Maybe the judge will throw her off for inherent stupidity.
ReplyDeleteWanna bet any amount of money she doesn't have jury duty? I would like to see proof. She is a pathological liar, after all.
No attorney worth a dime would allow Palin to be seated on a jury. It would be a distraction #1, and who could possibly believe that Palin could behave in an unbiased,deliberative fashion??
ReplyDeleteGawd I can hear the whining all the way on the East Coast. I shudder to think how loud it sounds in Russia.
ReplyDeleteFormer Alaska governor Sarah Palin took to Twitter on Wednesday to share her reaction to her daughter's new memoir Not Afraid of Life: My Journey So Far.
ReplyDelete"Bristol's new book 'Not Afraid of Life' is shocking, refreshing, honest, inspiring, and perfect," she wrote. In two separate tweets she sent earlier, Palin said that the text "gives insight into how media can drive false narrative" and lauded her daughter as "courageous" for her work.
Sarah Palin's somewhat delayed thought process (after sending out two tweets on the subject already, thias is the best she could do):
ReplyDeleteWait, wait a minute, it's coming to me...JURY DUTY!! Yes! That's it! I have to postpone the second exciting installment of my Magical Mystery Bus Tour ("the tour continues when the time comes"--WTF?!) because I am the Biggest, Bestest Patriot in 'Murika, and it is my Patriotical Duty to serve on Jury Duty! Yes, that's the ticket!"
(Translation: Nyah-nyah, mean ol' lamestream media tryin' ta put words in my mouth. I'LL show you! Ha!)
This week, jury duty. Next week, Trig sailing through the sky in a runaway balloon
ReplyDeleteIs the photo from the time she was speaking from only one side of her mouth like she had dental surgery. Occassionally Palin speaks from one side of her mouth kind of weirdly because she just had botox and whoever gave the shot along side her nose hit a nerve. She is a botox addict.
ReplyDeleteLet us hope, not of the Alaskan bloggers have a case coming up next month. Can you imagine the joy of finding Sarah Palin in the jury box if you a liberal, progressive, blogger, pro-choice, rape victim, or Andree McLeod?
ReplyDeleteMy guess is she was freaking about being called a quitter and when Franklin backed out on Sudan because the Globe was getting too close to panty sniffing the two of them together she came up with her first story. Then as the fur flew someone came up with the jury duty gig, she called Parnell, her butt boy, and got him to get her name on JD. She's covered of course but when are the lies going to stop from her?
ReplyDeleteShe's teasing those who still believe in her? She will be back on the grift shortly, or not. Gryph, you guys need to dig deep. Don't you think something is up? And it's NOT jury duty
I still think the Grahams read the load of un-Christian hate (never mind the sex, alcohol AND unchaperoned camping trips!)put forth in the her daughters book and said no thanks to Sarah! The summer is long - she'll have time for a few more icebergs! Bring it baby!
ReplyDeleteTo Anon @ 4:16 pm, didn't I see that exact language Palin is quoted on about Bristols book in a previous blog entry of Gryphens?
ReplyDeleteShe is a complete IDIOT!!!
ReplyDeleteMost people who get called, don't serve. And frankly if you were a lawyer, would you ever choose her to sit on your clients jury. She addresses the public and the media as if everyone is a dolt but her. I call BULLSHIT on this made up excuse! Anyone want to be boots on the ground and keep tabs on whether this is made up!?
Did you notice Bristols book slams Keith Olbermann?? Of course this is really coming from Sarah dont you?
I did Jury duty when I lived in Bethel. It was quite interesting. And a civic duty. Who cares why she quit her bus tour, at least we won't have to listen to all the reporters fawn all over her. and maybe won't see her on the news so much. at least we can hope. We could talk about something else.
ReplyDelete"[D]oes anybody really want a potential leader of this country too stupid to get out of jury duty?"
ReplyDeleteGryphen, I've been a fan of this blog for years, but you lost me with that one. You are implying that the only people who show up for jury duty are those who are "too stupid" to get out of it, which is an insult to the millions of Americans who have done their duty to make our legal system work. (When I received a jury notice, I showed up, even though I knew that as an attorney I would be unlikely to be chosen, and I wasn't.)
I don't know what the procedures in Alaska are, or what excuses are accepted. It may be that she had an easily available legal excuse, making her jury summons look like a pretext for stopping her tour. Nevertheless, your putting it that way was offensive and plain wrong.
4:16 - Interesting that Sarah called Bristol's book "honest". I've seen at least one contradiction so far: Sarah said Levi never lived in the Palin's house. Bristol said he'd come "home" with hickeys. This was before the first time they broke up, while Bristol was still living at home. Is Sarah admitting to lying?
ReplyDeleteHey Granny!
ReplyDeleteWHO said that YOUR "bus is driving news stories today" ?? Oh yeah, that was YOU.
Apparently the only news stories YOU read are about YOU.
Uh duh...my 19 year old got out of jury duty because of college classes
ReplyDeleteHe just said no one would want a "celebrity" involved...it's a matter of decorum, he's so smart he can insult the quitter with out slamming her obvious flaws
Chances are, she won't show up for "jury duty" *cough* either!
ReplyDeleteAnon @ 4:42pm--

Crisis in Palin Land: Sarah Palin Goes Global And Quits On Sudan
ReplyDeleteNo matter what the reason for Palin’s change in plans, this is evidence of a messaging fail by Palin’s PR folks. Her people should have orchestrated the announcement that her bus tour would not be proceeding on schedule so as not to fall on the same day as her trip to Sudan was canceled. The Palinistas are nervous enough about her not running, this is going to send them over the moon.
If Sarah Palin really has plans to run for President, she needs all of the foreign photo ops and Christian conservative cred she can muster. If she really cares about the incomprehensible suffering in Darfur, and wasn’t just using this trip as a photo-op, she could easily use her fame to raise awareness of the crisis and fundraise for the people even if she can’t make the trip.
George Clooney and other Hollywood “elites” have used their fame to draw much needed attention to the humanitarian crisis, and I will be behind Palin one-hundred percent if she manages to draw some much needed attention to the suffering in Sudan, even if I do cringe at it coming with Franklin Graham evangelical strings in an area that hardly needs any further religious interference. Any help is good help at this point for a nation that been in crisis for too long, even if the help is only a byproduct of vainglorious fame seeking.
As for Sarah Palin’s bus, it looks like she’s in one of her down periods, careening out of control and pulling the rug out from a few more supporters as is her want. Before we get our hopes up, we should remember that like the perfect horror villain, she always comes back.

besides "jury duty", looks like $carah's herpes thing is back in full bloom eh ?....
ReplyDelete....nervous much $carah ?
Here's the thing about a Borderline Personality. The LIE, they lie about everything. As someone pointed out she ran out a couple of announcements, they did't go down worth a shit so someone finally got the idea of jury duty. If she serves, she won't be called for obvious reasons, but she'll be able to trot it out there and I'm sure Parnell took care of backdating a letter and all. But in the end it's just another complex lie and there are odds it will blow up in her face like everything else seems to be these days. I'm sure if she didn't want to serve she could call and delay it, telling them she was going on vacation or running for President, scratch that. FEC might get involved.
ReplyDeleteWhat a crock. Do you tell the truth about anything?
BTW, in Brisket's book she wrote the she, Toad and Willow where there when Trig was born. Where was Sara? Out in the hall on her blackberry's?
Cancel a meeting for jury duty? Yes. A trip to South Carolina, Iowa and the Sudan, never. I suppose because all up-front costs were paid with OPM, it's no biggie. If I were one of the poor schmucks sending her my family vacation money, I'd want to know how much these cancellations cost me.
ReplyDeleteNot buyin' it Bitch from Wasilla! I work for the county jury center and you KNOW that you can EASILY suspend your duty for as long as you need to.
ReplyDeleteMost people know this, so why would you lie? Oh yeah, I forgot, you always lie about dumb stuff, even if you don't have to.
One burning question: Why didn't she just say so right away?
ReplyDeleteIf she got called for jury duty, then why wasn't her team allowed to give the reason? She set the media up for this one...
ReplyDeleteOkay I softened it up a little and took the "too stupid" part out.
ReplyDeleteJury duty is our civic duty, but please nobody really thinks that is what she is quitting over.
Could you even imagine Sarah Palin as part of the jury deciding your fate?
Sarah's herpes==no supreme alaskan head in the Sudan for Franklin.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about Alaska, but in ALL the states I have resided in the last 4 decades, having a child under the age of 6 and/or being the parent of a special needs child are automatic "Get Out of Jury Duty Free" cards. It is as easy as checking the box.
ReplyDeleteShe has used Trig to get want she's wants before. Why would she not use him to legitimately get out jury duty to continue her bus tour?
Oh yeah, because she doesn't have it and she doesn't want to.
He, he... 4:30 Anon, right on.I guess Alaska teens like to party like it's 1989.
ReplyDeleteMy guess is that wine coolers were Sarah's drink of choice back in her Miss Wasyphyllis days.
I took other readers' suggestions and went on Amazon and got the free sneak peek at Bristols tome, and it is a doozy. Poorly written, and straight up nasty. Bristol dogs Sadie and Sherry Johnston saying she wasn't surprised Sherry got busted for drugs, because she figured that was probably how paid fornall their designer clothing and stuff.
My guess is Sarah was originally planning to delay jury duty right up until her Paul Revere epic fail.
The "jury duty" excuse has BS written all over it. What attorney would pick her? The trial would be a media circus and she knows it. Plus an imbalance of power in the presence of her fellow jurors. But I suppose she can arrange to have a gaggle of reporters follow her to the courthouse, where they can wait outside for the 10 minutes it takes for her to be dismissed. Maybe she can pose with one of her pouty faces, "They won't let me play!"
ReplyDeleteGryphen, I understand your point. Tacitly we all understand that Sarah is not going to let a little thing like jury duty come between her and what she wants to do. She has never done anything "civic" in her life that didnt benefit her personally and hurt someone else.
ReplyDeleteCan a defendent request that a potential juror not be one of his jurors?
ReplyDeleteI got a jury notice for May. It was a very inconvenient time so I requested a November date and it was granted over the phone, no big deal.
Sooo....I guess that's why she won't be going to the Sudan, either, right? Or going fishing. But that'd be a really good cover for being at the court house to take care of ahmm "family" business.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone have any idea what she has going on on her lips/mouth? It looks like big, nasty blisters. Is that from using meth? Don't users get sores on their face or something? It sure would make sense given her erratic behavior. Or is it herpes sores? Or syphilis? Whatever it is, it's gross and sort of skankyish?
ReplyDeleteThis is where she probably got the idea for the jury scam:

Levi Krueger? Bristol have a thing for Levi's I thought she said Carharts?
ReplyDeleteThis Levi is 21 also too. Not statutory rape.
http://www.mylife.com/levikrueger
$100 she wouldn't be picked for a jury!
ReplyDeleteCannot even imagine her doing the work required of a juror which would include, but not be limited to: sitting still, shutting up, having to listen and not be able to access her Blackberries.
When Will Sarah Palin Announce?
ReplyDeleteHearts are atwitter in Palin land as we wait for the big announcement – which we’re pretty sure will come by the summer. Governor Palin’s hints have gotten increasingly broader. For example:

ReplyDeleteIn response to "Could you even imagine Sarah Palin as part of the jury deciding your fate?":
If I were accused of a hate crime (which I never would), Sarah would be my dream juror.
Oh relax grasshoppers....she will get out of jury duty. Halfway through the trial SHE'LL QUIT!
ReplyDeleteAfter listening to her bots for so long, I am absolutely amazed (and pleased) that she actually called herself "former governor."
ReplyDeleteIf jury duty is true, and I highly doubt it, she could delay it and delay it and delay it again.
ReplyDeleteI say she's needing more surgery as it didn't work the first time. She needs the time for all the cuts and bruises to heal so will go into hiding.
Is Bristol lies out two days early?
ReplyDeleteAnyway it launched at an unimpressive 76 out of 100 on B&N and not even in the top 100 on Amazon.
Another Palin FAILURE!!!
Hmmm something is brewing....
ReplyDeleteCraig Christy Monday at 7:35pm
Sarah,the ball is in your court to resolve this,not ours.If Tiemessen wants to take the BIG BUCKS to lie for you,we will start to expose his DIRTY LITTLE SECRETS.Wait till people find out how the Anckorage Courts GAY MENS CLUB has worked together for the benefit of the former governor(TED STEVENS ALSO A FORMER MEMBER).Hey Sarah,are you supported because you are a closet LESBIAN?
Craig Christy Monday at 7:25pm
Tiemessen sent Shawn a letter that if we never discuss Sarah and friends again and never ever go to Alaska again one day we can resolve this.Why are they so scared of what we have to say?Because what we say is the TRUTH!As Sarah persecutes our family,God is destroying her career.OH,I am sorry,I thought Sarah was GOD,I forgot she is the creator.Oh whats left of me!
Craig Christy Monday at 7:10pm
WHERE IS THE LETTER,SARAH PALIN.Your attorney John"TRAILER BOY" Tiemessen said he gave it to the FEDS(FBI)?But they say they don`t GOT it.Our new GAME is find the letter(unless Sarah lied again).So I would advise Sarah and John to find this letter and proof it is real to be the first step at resolving this issue,or we will just continue the war of TRUTH!!!

Does anyone want a president that plans nothing and flies by the seat of her pants? She seriously does not have the skills to run a hot dog stand, much less the country. Just reading her response here makes me think she is the most incompetent person to ever get elected to any office. Ever.

Big boss got you on trollin' duty, RAM@4:40 PM?
ReplyDeleteThere was a travel warning issued by the State Department and Palin is in the 'can I borrow your underwear, as I just shit in mine' mode.
ReplyDeleteThe woman is a thin-skinned whimp. She talks big, but has no bite. If someone would stand up to her, she would cave.
Her jury duty excuse is BS. Jury duty can be delayed time and time again.
Truthfully - she wouldn't admit that she heard the State Dept. warning and was 'ascared' shitless.
To admit that she was not travelling because of something from the Obama administration -- she'd be the laughing stock of the World!!!
I don't fault her for the jury duty. I fault her because she seems to think it puts your entire life on hold. But that's not the point and she knows it. She just doesn't like that the whole country laughs at her and her family can barely stand to be around her. This is her excuse and she needed to tell the flying monkeys something, they are desperate.
ReplyDeleteHey Bots, send her cash, that's her favorite!
Sarah doesn't have t serve n a jury, as a matter f fact, she can't. One of the qualifications is having one's full mental faculties, (ability to reason normally.)
ReplyDeleteI doubt Sarah WANTS to do jury duty and will hate every minute, but she doesn't DARE not to. LOL!
ReplyDeleteCan we all just imagine Sarah having to show up and not get selected day after day, she will give her opinions every time she is asked a question. Now I do not know the jury fee in Alaska but yrs ago I earned a whole $15 a day. That's the funny part, instead of grifting for major bucks, Sarah will be having to sit and be quiet in a boring court house for days for peanuts!
I actually enjoyed jury duty the one time I was selected, it was a murder trial and the guy reminds me of Tawd Palin--his defense--SMALL MANS SYNDROME LOL! I bet Tawd is "rill" small since he has to pay for it.
But seriously, folks:
ReplyDeleteCan I postpone my jury service?
If jury service at the time for which you are summoned will cause hardship, you may request deferral of service to another time within the next ten months. If you need to seek a deferral, you should do so as soon as possible. Do not wait until the time you are to appear. To reschedule your jury service, follow the instructions for question #12 on the Jury Questionnaire. If you have already sent in your questionnaire, call the jury clerk as soon as possible for instructions.
Can I be temporarily excused from jury service?
The Alaska Statutes and court rules allow the following persons to be temporarily excused from jury service:
1. a judicial officer
2. any person who can show that the person's health, the health or proper care of the person's family, a physical or mental disability, or other hardship makes it necessary for the person to be excused
3. a teacher in a school that is designated as failing to make adequate yearly progress under Public Law 107-110 (the “No Child Left Behind Act of 2001”). Note: “teacher” means a person who serves a school district in a teaching capacity in a classroom setting and is required to be certificated in order to hold the position. These teachers are only excused from jury service during the school term.
To request a temporary excusal, you must write your request and reason on the Jury Questionnaire in #13 (the Comments section). If you have already sent in your questionnaire, call the jury clerk as soon as possible.
If your request is granted, you will be excused from service for the current jury year (except the teachers described above, who are only excused during the school term). However, you may be summoned for another term of service in the future. To be permanently excused, see the next question.
If I were any defense lawyer or a county DA, I would not THINK of having her on the jury.
ReplyDeleteThe same goes for defendants. I'd tell my lawyer, 'You gotta be kidding me! Ani't no way I want that crazy beotch on my jury!'
But it's an easy enough excuse that could be verified.
Then again, I wouldn't be surprised if she just showed up at the court house & hung around for a while to make it look good.
That Scarah, she's always cooking something up.
--GypsyGirl
C4P want to believe that, "In Alaska you get called for jury duty for a month...you are assigned a number and have to call in daily....sometimes you are called not picked, and still must call daily.."
ReplyDeleteThis is not true. LIARS MUCH. It is 5 days for metro areas. You call in on Mondays and Thursdays.
http://www.courts.alaska.gov/jury-trial.htm
Obviously Palin applied for PFD which should bring about questions of fraud which is a felony, also too she would be excused for that mentally unstable clause.
I assume this is her way of saying she isn't actually living in Arizona, but is a resident of Alaska.
ReplyDeleteDo you think the McMansion fell through do to the issues with the title?
Hey Gryph, nobody should TRY to "get out of jury duty". I have been a juror twice, and on call a third time, and it really wasn't a hardship. I did delay one stint because I was breastfeeding, which is a pretty good excuse.
ReplyDeleteJury duty here in WI only lasts a few days, barring getting picked for a long trial. I don't know what the rules for jury duty in Palmer/Wasilla are; is it longer than a week or so? Let's say it's as long as a week; I think Mrs. Palin could carve out a week in her bus duty to serve her jury duty w/o having to cancel for the entire summer.
Here's my theory: Yes, it's slow news, so she 'leaks' that she's parked the bus. THEN, when word is out, and her followers are crying, she pulls the blackberry out and solves it all with one fell tweet. She manufactured the crises, and then fixed it. She's superwoman!
ReplyDeleteThanks for changing the wording at the end, Gryphen. I agree with Kevin. I've been called for jury duty many times. Most times I served (and actually got picked a few times, once even was elected jury foreman!) but there were a couple times I asked to reschedule, once because it was winter and I prefer to drive as little as possible at that time of the year, and the one and only time I was called for a four-year stint on a federal grand jury (not a solid four years, but a few days here and there in that time) I sent the questionnaire back with the notation that I would be out of the country for a particular three weeks. I never heard from the federal grand jury people again.
ReplyDeleteMaybe jury duty sounded better than admitting that teensy little snafu over the "One Nation" trademark infringement? My guess is the bus is in dry dock until that's settled and she can come up with another snazzy slogan and a new bus skin, assuming she gets to keep the bus.
ReplyDeleteHaha on Sea of Pee they have a post
ReplyDelete"We need you Sarah, will you answer the call?"
Ha!!! You don't call, you don't write, you just take our money. Don't you love us? We love you! We'll do, anything, please!
"The information you provide on the questionnaire helps the court determine whether you qualify to serve as a juror. The Alaska Statutes require a juror to be
ReplyDeletea citizen of the United States;
a resident of Alaska;
at least 18 years of age;
of sound mind;
in possession of the person's natural faculties (normal abilities to reason); and
able to read or speak the English language."
Well, I can see Mrs. Palin being disqualified for several reasons.
I did find, though that it's possible that she might have to serve longer than a week; small courts, the info says, may require a juror to be available as long as a month, or even a year, depending on the court and the area, but total service was not to exceed 30 days total or the length of a trial if selected for one.
Conclusion: She *might* be telling the truth about this, but, knowing Mrs. Palin, probably it's an exaggeration, since she seems to fly all over the country and could presumably be back in Wasilla in time for any required jury service.
Due to the numerous prevarications. scams and games from this shrew, some photographic proof might be warranted to prove she is actually serving on a jury, and if she is photographed whoever does it needs to make sure it isn't some SP "stunt double." Once again it is all about manipulation of the media, staying in the limelight, and appeasing her unsuspecting drooling base. Jury duty? Maybe so, maybe NOT. (And probably NOT!)
ReplyDeleteWhat one is left with, is that no matter WHAT she says, you question it from every possible angle, because she has such a track record with lies, exaggerations, and bullsheet.
She's been rather "quiet" lately, so in all liklihood, she's brewing and conjuring up her next pot of steaming crappy publicity stunts and distractions. She is far from "done" and like a bad penny she just keeps popping back up.
Look for her to "come out of hiding" any day soon now, with some new load of tricks and circus acts.
And when she does, you can believe the media and press will be falling all over themselves chasing after her to boost their ratings. SARAH--"A RASH" of follies!
Anon 4:16
ReplyDeleteI see others revealing various 'lies' in the book.
Here's another:
Bristol stated she was taking birth control for cramps.
The book sets out a totally different reason going on birth control. In my words: So she could continue her 'boning' experiences!!!
No one would choose her to be on a jury,she knows that.So a simple postponement until after the Sudan trip would have been no problem.
ReplyDeleteGod she's so stupid... she won't even have to try and get out of it, nobody will want her turning their trial into a media circus!

TRUE OR FALSE, BRISTOL?
Bull shit....
ReplyDelete"When the time comes"... I'm wondering if the interestingly timed "send me $100" letter that she just sent has any bearing on when that time will be?
ReplyDeleteNo Gryphen, I cannot even imagine what I would think or feel if SP landed on a jury deciding my innocence or guilt, but I cry FOUL at this whole excuse also. What jury duty? Is it county? Federal grand jury? Which kind of jury duty? Some jury duty calls for you to report for about a week depending on whether you are selected as a juror on any number of trials ... in our county, this means you report on the first day, you sit and wait, and you may even go home after a day or two (this is daytime only, you do not stay overnight); Federal grand jury is statewide and you report one week out of a month for up to 6 months. If selected, you serve for that whole week once a month. So what kind of jury duty? When does she report? I think this is a convenient excuse she has cooked up.
ReplyDeleteI'm betting next she's gonna say she's not running for prez because the dog ate her paperwork.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine any judge allowing this celbrity on a jury, and both sides get to "pick off" a certain number of potential jurors for any reason whatsoever.
ReplyDeleteI served jury duty myself three times, and I understand Gryphen's snark.
Right now, there's a huge murder case in florida with a narcissist named Casey Anthony being televised. My guess is Sarah is so enthralled with this young version of herself, that she thinks she's actually on jury duty in the case.
And I'm NOT inferring, in any way or manner, that Sarah is a murderer, just saying the personality disorder is remarkably similar. I repeat. I'm not implying anything connecting Sarah Palin to any crime involving killing a child.
Google "Casey Anthony" and see for yourself.
"I wouldn’t think it to be such a slow news day that...
ReplyDeletea bus is driving news stories today."
Oh, Sarah!
It's not about the BUS!
We just like to laugh at YOU!
Gryphen said...
ReplyDeleteOkay I softened it up a little and took the "too stupid" part out.
Jury duty is our civic duty, but please nobody really thinks that is what she is quitting over.
Could you even imagine Sarah Palin as part of the jury deciding your fate?
5:06 PM
Maybe Sarah wants to be on the jury when the state charges Levi for raping Biscuit?
Or maybe Sarah wants to get on the jury for the Todd Palin prostitution ring case?
I wasn't sure whether to post this here or not, but couldn't find anywhere else to put it. Sorry to be off topic and if bringing this up is a no-no, please disregard.
ReplyDeleteI was somehow directed to a site today that positioned itself as anti-Palin, run by someone or some thing called Toki.
It was a really raunchy site with lots of disgusting stuff about Bristol Palin.
Be that as it may, something about it struck me as fishy and I would bet any amount of money I could scrape up that it's a black op site run by either Mrs. Palin herself or one of her minions.
On every salient point of interest to serious Sarah Palin critics, opponents, or people who are just scared shitless she may some day attain a position of power in this country, it is in 100 percent agreement with the Queen's version of the truth: "Sarah is Trig's real mother," "Shailey Tripp is a lie," etc.
Even its supposed "draw," private Twitter correspondence of RAM, reflects poorly on nobody except Shannyn Moore.
How convenient with Palin ready to launch her campaign for the bots to have a raunchy site like this to point to as representative of us "haters" out there.
I wouldn't be a bit surprised if the detailed sexual history referenced on the site came directly from Palin herself...no, no mother would ever throw her child under the bus like that just to discredit her critics, would they?
Anyway, after looking at the site, I felt like I needed to take a shower.
This is just further evidence of her eventual meltdown. Well...not eventual, as it has begun. She just drifts further and further away from the reality most of us enjoy. The B book is courageous? Useful lessons? That part is true, but who claims such as these?
ReplyDeleteWhere's TriG? Where's Ruffles? Where is the sense of any of this?
We are witnessing a descent into madness. And it is horrifying, as we watch her terror increase with every day her as world spins further out of control.
I know that the end will come soon. Maybe not soon enough. Maybe not until she destroys everything in her path.
It's not pretty to see someone hit bottom, and this will be no different from watching a junkie realise what what he's doing is dying, and not living at all, regardless of his lies to himself and others.
I imagine Sarah, on that day crying out, "Jesus! Let me just get straight!"
I hope there's someone left then that cares enough to help her. She will need it.
Thanks, Gryphen, for taking out the 'stupid ' part. Now if you could just change 'get out of' to 'postpone', it'd be perfect.
ReplyDeleteLike many others here, I think it is important that we ( the smart ones) do jury duty if possible. It's part of what makes our system work. Easy for me to say- in my county, if you show up for one day and are not put on a jury panel, you are dismissed for at least a year. :-)
~Pogo
All she had to do is tell them she had a prescheduled event and would like to serve on a jury at a later time. She just got tired of her bus tour and wanted to do something else for a while. They may be formulating strategy right now. Does anyone really believe that a woman who can keep her daughter from being charged with a crime while others who participated were charged could not get out of jury duty?
ReplyDeleteWould I want Sarah Palin to be a juror on my case?
ReplyDeleteOH HELL NO!
Sarah would take one of her blackberries, run my license plate number and find out that I'm a regular on Immoral Minority and I'll be the first person sent to prison with a life sentence for jaywalking.
Sarah is only interested in Palin Justice.
Yep, VernD 5:30 PM. I can totally see that.
ReplyDeleteGood Lord. C4P needs to be monitored by the feds like they do Hayden Lake.
ReplyDeleteFor those who were doubting and caterwauling about what Gov. Palin's gonna do, this is your message:
She's gonna hang someone on a jury. Then come out and hang the liberal media from a high tree. STOP COMPLAINING. ^_-
Come on folks and lighten up on Sarah. She will be the prettiest and happiest woman on the jury.
ReplyDeleteThe Palins are the happiest family in Alaska, and they all love their new homes in Arizona.
Sarah did not quit her first term as governor. She simply did not want to deprive the people of Alaska by taking a paycheck to be a lame-duck governor.
And, also, too, she did not quit on her One Nation bus trip! The family came back so the kids could enjoy the long summer days at home!
Besides, Willow wanted to get back so she could go camping with a few of her friends. Oopsy, that was supposed to be a secret. ;@)
Is this jury duty in Alaska or Arizona? I thought she had moved her legal residence. If so, she wouldn't be eligible to serve on a jury in Alaska and it's unlikely she would have been called so quickly in Arizona. Someone should stake out the federal, state and county courthouses in Anchorage and Wasilla (if they have any) to see if she appears when a new jury is summoned. A call to the courthouses will tell you when new juries are called.
ReplyDeletehttp://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archives/2011/06/01/did-sarah-palin-just-commit-election-fraud-in-arizona
Jury duty or not, what really bothers me is that she feels the need to respond to EVERYTHING that is written or said about her. Imagine if the President felt the need to do that, he would never get anything done.
ReplyDeleteHer crusade against the media is really getting old. It seems like all she does is WHINE.

"even former governors get called up for jury duty"
ReplyDeleteOh? Who is the former governor that got called up for jury duty?
It can't be Palin since she is a Half-Term Quitter. She cannot be called former governor since she never completed her term and did not earn the title of Governor.
Sorry this is o/t but I just checked out the reviews of Brisdull's book at Amazon.com and so far there are 23 one star reviews and 5 five-star reviews. The book is bombing big time. I think the public is waking up and catching on! I think I'll spend tomorrow at Barnes and Noble, find a comfy chair and read the book. Then I can add my honest review as well.
ReplyDeleteIf she has "jury duty' it must in a nice, noiseless sanatorium somewhere.
ReplyDeleteShe's probably in IV anti psychotics.
The staff are all dressed in white so she thinks she's in heaven.
She says "no one should jump to conclusions". And this irritates her? She keeps teasing that she might run; and the duty of the media is to keep americans informed of candidate's schedules and intentions. Being a potential candidate requires a two-way street - she owes her base the respect to keep them informed.
ReplyDeleteShe thinks people should keep dishing out money for her PAC without knowing what her intentions are? Why couldn't she have released that info that she had jury duty before so that speculation on her cancellations wouldn't upset her followers who give her much of their time, money and devotion. She treats them like scum.
The fact that she stays silent about her schedules and keeps her fans on a leash is amazing. That's what amazes people, Sarah.
If Sarah wants out of jury duty she will not be able to say that she has a special needs baby to take care of at home. We all know that Sarah bought Trig a nanny and Trig practically never sees Sarah until it is time for a photo op or time to get his Alaskan Permanent Fund check and then it‘s adios Trig till next year.
ReplyDeleteNo way Sarah is doing jury duty.
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine Sarah sitting in the juror box for 6 hours without her blackberries?
Can't someone go to the local courthouse in Wasilla or where ever and see if she actually arrives in the morning for trial ?
ReplyDeleteShe's either been dismissed after the first day of voir dire or
she's on a jury.
Shouldn't be too hard to check out.
Prospective jurors are given a couple weeks notice when they are chosen for jury duty.
She had to have known awhile ago ,
so she's either lying or so chaotic
and disorganized
or both.
And is it possible for this 47 year old woman
to ever tweet like an adult instead of a snide middle schooler ?
Ain't no way she'll make it past the selection review.
ReplyDelete7:30pm. It has just been announced that Sarah Palin has been excused from jury duty.
ReplyDeleteThe State of Alaska announced that it could not afford the $150,000 fee for Sarah's appearance.
What are they hiding?
ReplyDeleteIn the past month, I have attempted eight times to talk to the reporters, writers and editors at the Anchorage Daily News about the paper’s coverage of Trig Palin’s maternity.
I was shut down or refused 7 times. The other effort resulted in an off-the-record phone call. In all cases, the party-line was toed: The editors and reporters are “intelligent” and they thoroughly investigated claims that the then-governor did not give birth to Trig Palin. And they came away satisfied that she, in fact, did so.
What was it specifically that allowed them to arrive at that conclusion?
No one said, other than the fact that reporter Lisa Demer talked to Mrs. Palin’s doctor, Cathy Baldwin-Johnson and it was “clear” that it was Mrs. Palin’s baby. And that to suggest otherwise is “ridiculous.”
Collectively, the answer was that to pursue this matter was akin to the Obama birth certificate conspiracy theories and that people are simply going to believe what they are going to believe.
All right, then tell me what Dr. Baldwin-Johnson said and I’ll believe you.
But by then, the answers to my inquiry were getting shorter and decidedly snippier.
So I searched – again - for a story that the Daily News might have written that I might have missed that might have made it all “clear.” And I couldn’t find one.
So why then, if the pursuit of the hoax story, and the inability of some people to believe Mrs. Palin’s version of events, was "ridiculous", did the paper, in fact, try to investigate it in late December, 2008?
And why did managing editor, Pat Dougherty write this to Governor Palin if, in fact, Lisa Demer talked to the doctor and it was “clear?”

Now Sarah feels that it is her patriotic duty to serve on a jury?
ReplyDeleteWTF happened to her patriotic duty to pay her property taxes on those hidden cabins?
It did not seem patriotic for Sarah to charge per diem to live at home when there was a perfectly good mansion provided by the state.
Seems like "jury duty" woul be a good cover in case she is seen in the criminal court building. Does she have a court appearance?
ReplyDeleteIs her latest declaration that she has an infant son because she was raped ... as predictable as it is outrageous?
ReplyDeleteThink of her mother's political career: insular, narcissistic, thin-skinned, attention-whoring ... and with a tendency for her to turn opponents or critics into sexual predators.
Sexualized performance (think Sarah as Miss Wasilla, Bristol dry humping in Dancing With The Stars), self-enrichment (the massive book contracts, the reality show aspirations), and general and sexual paranoia, which is invoked at the slightest criticism.
Think of Madame Palin's insinuation that Joe McGinniss was really a pedophile because he moved in next door. Think of her paranoia and hysteria about trooper Wooten.
Now think of what they have both done to Levi. One worries he is out of his ultimate fighting championship league.

beast.com/2011/06/bristol-very-much-palin.html
The bus tour was supposed to include Iowa and SC. She quit -- actually her family quit -- and pretended she'd get back on the road after a break. I don't want any leader who thinks I'm stupid enough to believe their pathetic jury duty excuses.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like SP will be seen coming in or out of a courtroom soon and is using this jury duty as the excuse.
ReplyDeleteI'm shocked that no one else here has figured out the extra bonus Palin gets from claiming she's on jury duty.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, it gets her out of the flaming disaster of a bus tour that saw her family bailing out in droves and her publicity being almost universally of the negative sort. Second, it gets her out of going to Sudan where they have a lot of scary black people and where there's potential danger.
Third, and most important of all, it gives her a unique opportunity to FINALLY win one over the President. Back in January of 2010, President Obama received a jury summons at his home near Chicago. The White House contacted the court and explained that the President would be unavailable to serve. Now Palin can brag that she is serving her civic duty, unlike that rotten old President who weaseled out when he was called.
Win-win-win for Palin.
Let me get this straight. Are you telling me that, in 2008, when Palin was announcing Bristol's pregnancy to the world (just days after her nomination) that she was describing the aftermath of a rape? Why, then, would she instruct the campaign to say, "Bristol and the young man she will marry are going to realize very quickly the difficulties of raising a child, which is why they will have the love and support of our entire family."? Why would candidate Palin parade her daughter's rapist at the Republican National Convention? And why would Bristol get engaged for a second time to the man who violated her?
ReplyDeleteEven if you could explain that last one with some domestic version of Stockholm syndrome, why would Sarah condone it, even temporarily? Why, oh why, would Sarah (citing "redemption and forgiveness") support continued contact with the man who raped Tripp's mother? Given what we know about the Palins and vendettas, I find it hard to believe that governor Palin would show more lenience toward such a man than she did to Trooper Wooten. Even the most defiant Palin supporter (perhaps especially they) should have a hard time believing this.
http://andrewsullivan.thedaily
beast.com/2011/06/bristols-innocence-ctd.html
She damn well better show up to the courthouse and sit through voir dire.
ReplyDeleteHey, at least she didn't blame Piper.
ReplyDeletePalin is presently involved in two lawsuits.
ReplyDeleteThe Chip Thoma suit that was moved to federal court and the trademark infringement case.
A preliminary juror questionnaire
would have asked the potential juror
for any lawsuits and legal cases
they had been involved in.
Or were presently involved in.
Palin's pending court cases would have immediately ruled her out for even
being called for jury duty.
This doesn't pass the smell test.
If Sarah announces that she is running for president, will that get her out of jury duty?
ReplyDeleteSo Bristol had had 3 babies??? Wow!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe shes pregnant again or maybe it's Willow!
The stuff on Craig Christys wall is interesting. Maybe you can find out from him Gryphen what is going on. I feel sorry for that kid. People don't get how devastating Lyme disease is . It can effect your brain in very strange ways.
You know, I don't get it. She seems to think she can spread her filth and her little bots will fall all over themselves over her while the rest of us, including conservatives just roll our eyes and wonder what is coming from her mouth next. SARA, we aren't as stupid as your bots. Saying you have jury duty and that you are what? delaying your trip? I note you don't say one word or another about that. And from what is being posted here and elsewhere postponing it is a piece of cake. And someone even said you can delay it forever if you have a special needs child under a certain age. Then again you don't really have a special needs child and if you tell the state you have one and it's later revealed you don't then that's FRAUD. And they might even want PROOF the child is the age you claim meaning you'd have to show a BC and you don't have one do you know?
ReplyDeleteThe lies, they pile up like a stinking pile of shit and eventually the pile falls over. Is it coming down on you now?
Look, getting an extension because you had prior plans is not "getting out of jury duty." It is simply postponing it to a more convenient time (I like early December). The last time I postponed jury duty was because the notice fell during a previously arranged vacation. I postponed it for a month. The time before that, my son died, and I postponed it for 6 months. It is NOT a big deal, and it is NOT shirking your civic duty.
ReplyDeleteOh please. She absolutely can get out of it, if she really wanted to continue her tour.
ReplyDeleteOf course it's everyone's civic duty, but that's beside the point. They are very flexible on it, and she could simply defer to a later date. They will keep notifying her, no worries there. (It can be a very interesting and gratifying experience when one does participate.)
What I want to know is, if she doesn't get picked for a jury - then what? And btw, quite often jury duty can be a day or two or a week at most. Only rarely is it an extensive weeks-long case.
What's she going to say when a week or two from now she is not seen going in and out of her local court house?
She will regret this little lie. They are going to follow up on it.
After three years of Palin desperately trying to hog the spotlight of the main stream media, I long for the good old days of Britney Spears shaved head and numerous panty free crotch shots!
ReplyDeleteSo, Sarah is undefeated once again.
ReplyDeleteAll she had to do is adopt the Tina Fey/Liz Lemon method to avoid jury duty: dress up as Princess Leia.
Does this mean the trip to the Sudan and the upstaging of Margaret Thatcher are off as well?
I already miss the Tour de Farce.
Puhleeze. Notice for jury duty comes out a good three months prior to the date of service. If you already have travel plans, you can request a reschedule.
ReplyDeleteAlso, for most people it's a call-in thing, that takes only a week.
If she had something planned in advance, she could easily have rescheduled jury duty.
If she had been appointed to jury dury before scheduling the bus tour, wouldn't she have scheduled the bus tour around her duty, rather than implying she'd be out touring during the period?
So even if she WERE serving on jury duty, it wouldn't have impacted the bus tour in the way she claims.
She's a liar, and like most psychopaths, lies about anything she can no matter how small.
7:01 PM = RAM? Are the tire tracks permanent?
ReplyDeleteVernD @ 5:30 - I can't stop laughing!
ReplyDeleteHelloooooo Russia
Ummmm, I won't be taking Sarah Palin's word on this, or anything, EVER! Has it been confirmed that she's been summoned for jury duty? She may be due in court as the defendant or witness, but not jury duty. She's full of shit.
ReplyDeleteSARAH PALIN JURY DUTY?
ReplyDeleteHate to do this, I’m going to reveal what is really going on.
Sarah Palin will show up for jury duty and as she approaches the court house, Alaskan State Troopers will handcuff and arrest Sarah for crimes against the State of Alaska.
Sarah you are about to be punked!
"I can't go to the GOP debates because I have jury duty"
ReplyDeletePalin's sense of civic duty is so steadfast that she would suspend her multi-million dollar "National Bus Tour of Obdurate Stupidity" to serve on a jury?
ReplyDeleteHow come that highly developed sense of civic duty didn't compel her to finish her term as governor?
Palin is a feckless moron.
She's not going to Sudan because the State Dept. issued a travel warning telling Americans to keep out.
ReplyDeleteShe will lie and say anything to make it appear it was something other than from the Obama admin. Palin to admit following a warning from Obama admin - not in our lifetime!!

It occurs to me that Sarah may have requested to be on the the list of those chosen for jury duty when the negative publicity started about quitting her bus tour. We know it is likely there would be people in place who would do whatever she asks. It also occurs to me she may not be on the list at all and the court staff would not be able to say if she was on the list or not. It is clear she would be elininated anyway due to her former status as governor and being a celebrity (the defendant's lawyer could be declared incompetent if she wasn't eliminated for the crazy factor), so she knows there is little danger she would serve. There is also the possiblility that if she did receive a notice of jury duty she could use it to create publicity and have reporters show up so she could play up the patriotic spin.
ReplyDeleteDer Wä$chilltard's excuse of "jury duty" is pathetic. Her bustard tour is costing a fortune and she postponed it for "jury duty?!?!?" This tundratard has lied her way out of a plethora of situations but she can't postpone "jury duty??????????????"
ReplyDeleteUtter BS.
The quittard encountered obvious negative public opinion and is retreating to the safety of farcebook/shitter/faux.
Dear Sarah,
ReplyDeleteJust to reiterate the feelings behind your words in your tweet... that it was your desire to display your civic loyalties to performing Jury Duty and NOT ANY DESIRE OR RESPONSIBILITY ON YOUR PART TO PERFORM YOUR PARENTAL DUTIES that brought your make-up-gobbed-heavily-sedated-cross-eyed-cottage-cheese-textured-thigh-wrinkled-sorry-ass back to Alaska?
Thanks for the clarification. We certainly wouldn't want to make any erroneous assumptions.
Please tell TriG and his birth mother "Hello" for us next time you see them.
Sincerely,

I think Sarah's trying to clean up a big ole mess up there in Wasilla. Whether it involves the Christy's, Shailey, the Johnstons, or someone else ready to talk, I think the shit is about to hit the fan.
ReplyDeleteOr is that just wishful thinking?
Gryphen, I know you can't tell us much about Mercede. But can you at least say whether or not she will comment on this book? One would think if someone were falsely accused of date rape in a book of "nonfiction", either they, their spokesperson or lawyer would address the accusation immediately.
My prayers answered. Earlier today I posted that I just wanted to hear from Sarah, even a tweet, just something to keep me going. Now I have my fire back, just hearing from her and knowing she is OK and she is still moving forward. Thank God for Sarah. I do not say that lightly.

And, she wonders why people don't like her - the name she gives us 'haters'. She and Bristol are a friggin' mess. I'll wager that Toad cannot get away from them fast enough. Poor, poor Piper.

When did her jury notice go out as compared to when she went on hiatus from her "tour"?
ReplyDeleteI sat grand jury for a month in December. This is when I learned beyond any doubt that "These aren't my pants" is a viable defense for having dope in your pockets. Apparently, no one wears their own pants.
ReplyDeleteOMG, that photo just struck me!
ReplyDeleteIs she trying to seduce a goldfish? Is that how desperate she's become?
For those of you asking about Mercede, she stopped by earlier this evening and we had a long talk.
ReplyDeleteThe reason why she has not blogged since her last post is because her computer is still on the fritz.
She is definitely going to talk about Bristols' book and I think we have worked out a way around her computer issues. I would tell you more, but sometimes things don't work out and I hate to promise something I cannot deliver.
Essentially though Mercede revealed just how much of Bristol's version of what happened between Levi and Bristol to be a pack of mean spirited lies. (Example: The reason that Levi was not lying next to Bristol when she woke up after her "rape" is because he was building a fire outside so she could have a warm place to sit by the fire.)
Sadie is very upset, as is her mother, and she will NOT let this go unchallenged.
To: Governor Palin
ReplyDeleteFor someone who claims to media, you sure seem to love the attention.
Instead of trying to make little jokes about the media, why don't you just give people a straight answer as to whether or not you will run for president in 2012?
Or you could start being an advocate for Downs Syndrome parents. Just like you said you would almost three years ago.
Its a great excuse! I wonder how she managed it. The bus tour was obviously going the wrong direction fast. Now she can be patriotic etc., etc. and get out of the mess she had gotten herself in.
ReplyDeleteLike we're supposed to believe this lying grifter (who quit her governor's job for money) would end her grifting bus tour, and run back to Alaska just for jury duty. Bullshit.
ReplyDeletewomanwithsardinecan: I always did jury duty in the summer. Before I retired, I was a school district employee whose job was subject to state and federal timelines. They didn't get substitutes for me and I never could take weeks off. Yet, I believe in doing my civic duty so when called, always requested transfer to summer with the above reason. They were always happy to oblige. Diversity is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteDude, where's that picture from? What the hell's wrong with her face??

"I left Greta a note on her blog today......asked her if Fox was enjoying their ratings loss......told her that about 3 million former Fox viewers were fed up with the treatment of Sarah by Fox and that her rating's loss was collateral damage......told her that people might consider tuning in if Fox cleaned up their act and got rid of the out of date dinosaur pundits like CK, KR, and DM.....but that BOR's ratings will not improve ever......we the people still have our standards and BOR doen't measure up."

"Could it be that FNC is "makin some stuff up" to make her look kukoo? (I.e., they absolutely said Sarah would be at SRLC last week end - she was not.) (and then the rumor today that she cancelled her bus tour to make her look like a quitter)"
Jury duty is easy to reschedule - at least where *I* live. I rescheduled mine just because there *might* be snow in the forecast and was told that I could reschedule it for whenever I wanted to as long as it was within the jury (i.e., calendar) year.
ReplyDeleteAnd I cannot imagine somebody who was supposed to be in the middle of a "vacation" having ANY problem getting jury duty rescheduled - IF they wanted to.
It's not as if they don't notify you WEEKS in advance. At least...where *I* live they do.
Olivia said..."I think jury duty is a privilege but I sure as hell feel sorry for ANYONE on the jury with her or in any court case with her on the jury."
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine Sarah as a juror in a murder trial like Caylee Anthony's? After listening to weeks (or even months) of testimony, viewing gruesome evidence, and seeing the damage done to innocent families, the jury renders its decision.
When the trial finally ends and the jury members can talk to the press about their verdict, Sarah would have a Palinesque blood libel whinefest and make HERSELF into the biggest victim of the trial.
Hey Sarah, we know you keep checking in & reading what we're saying about you...
ReplyDeleteHow does it feel to be mocked by so many people??
How do you like having your daughter's private parts hanging out for the world to see & read about?
Why won't you release Trig's birth certificate??
How do you expect to get to heaven if you keep lying??
Anonymous said..."My prayers answered. Earlier today I posted that I just wanted to hear from Sarah, even a tweet, just something to keep me going. Now I have my fire back, just hearing from her and knowing she is OK and she is still moving forward. Thank God for Sarah. I do not say that lightly."
ReplyDeleteDear Todd,
Quit being so pathetic. Your support check for July has already been put in the mail.
Sincerely,

The comments at c for p are unreal. They are so naive! The bus tour is not over according to them. They idolize and project all kinds of no nonsense onto her. Their beliefs about her are off
ReplyDeleteThe woman is an idiot.
ReplyDeleteThere is no way SP is still a legal resident of Alaska. You have to be present in the state a set number of days and she has been everywhere but AK for several years now.
ReplyDeleteJury duty? In Alaska? Ha. That's a good one.
There she goes again!
ReplyDeleteIn Alaska it is fairly easy to get a jury duty extension, especially if one has prior plans.
In Chicago, a potential juror got out of jury duty by showing her tickets for one of the last Oprah shows. David Letterman was called for jury duty and explained to the judge that his presence would cause too much of a commotion. He was willing to serve, but he thought that he would be a disruption so he was excused. However, Sarah finally found a judge (someone she appointed????) who would make sure that Sarah would be a distraction in Alaska and stay in the news for a while. If I was going to have a case tried before a jury with Sarah Palin on it, my lawyer would have a field day with that situation!
ReplyDeleteWhat this shows me of Paylin is that she's not very organized, nor does she have control of scheduling her time appropriately. You are notified months in advance that you will be on jury duty; you have options of asking to reschedule at a later date. What a joke. She quit because she wasn't getting the fanfare she expected on her little "secret" escapade -- ah -- vacation(?) She was begging people to have her sign her autograph; and she was begging people to have their picture taken with her - at no charge - that's a first. (Now, that's a desparate woman.) Todd left; Bristol left; Piper was bored to death; mom and dad weren't really paying attention. And Boston pretty much showed everyone how stupid she really is AGAIN!! Jury duty? I don't think so. Hiding is more like it, until she can conjure up her next dirty deed. The Quitter Queen can't even go on a vacation without quitting. She just likes to start things, and never complete them.
ReplyDeleteI imagine that Sarah finally checked her giant stack of old mail and found a jury duty notice.
ReplyDeleteBefore everyone gets all harsh, please try and remember that Piper is only human and does not always sort it correctly. Such a low paid engagement would never have made the priority mail pile, so it's probably been sitting there for awhile.
Sarah looked at the notice and shrieked, "Hah! My PERFECT excuse...thank ya' Jaysus!" and her newest tweet was born(e).
VHTG
More likely those are meth sores.
ReplyDeleteGoogle "Meth Use & Symptoms" - you'll be amazed how many symptoms apply to sarah.
Totally agree with the other posters that this is BS. Since when does $elfish $arah put civic duty above herself? Never, ever! Maybe she's filming another 'god I'm great, look at me in the halls of justice' or maybe she's the recipient of a jury and can't quite leave the premises :-)
ReplyDeleteIs it possible to check to see if she really does/did have jury duty? If she is telling the truth, why didn't she post something on her FB page earlier to alert her fans about the postponed bus tour? Doesn't she care about her adorning minions who are eagerly awaiting her visit to their states?
ReplyDeleteApart from the fact that no attorney on either side would accept an ex-Governor or anyone of celebrity or fame on a jury, so she will be immediately bumped - I am presuming that the local papers has a reporter assigned to the courts, and will be able to track whether or not Palin actually shows up for jury duty or is even on a list.
ReplyDeleteBut then, this is Alaska and perhaps I am presuming too much.

Maybe MRS Franklin Graham said "Enough is enough" What woman in her right mind would want her husband associated with this crazy person? Maybe Greta finally rebelled and told Fox that she has had enough, since the donations to Sarah Pac (which Greta's husband manages) have dropped off? Maybe RAM found a publisher and is ready to expose the TRUTH?? Maybe Levi finally came to his senses, and is suing for the rape accusations in Bristol's "memoir"? There are so many reasons. Too bad more than one of these can't come out?
ReplyDeleteShe is so frickin Tri-G!!
ReplyDeleteWith her millions, one would think, wouldn't one, that she could FLY on up from the tour on jury duty day, fulfill her duty, and Fly back to the tour. There is no way in hell she'd be pick for any jury anyway, so she'd be gone from the tour for a day...the bus could be enroute to Graceland and she could meet up with it there.She really is a preschooler now (downgraded from pre adolescent) in her thought processes. I predict she won't show up for jury duty declaring "her dog ate her summons"
She is just Tri-ged.
Pretty soon we are gonna hear that no one can reveal if Sarah is on a jury list because it violates HIPAA lol.
ReplyDeleteDog I'm so tired of that excuse:)
Elizabeth, I didn't mean to imply you have no life because you do jury duty in the summer. It sounds like summer is your December, the most convenient time for you to do your civic duty. The jury duty people know that it is a pain in the butt if you actually have to serve on a jury, so they make it as easy as possible for everybody to schedule it to their best times. Sarah is trying to slide by on bullshit because she can't admit that the bus tour was a bust. I hope she DOES go back on the road. It was completely annoying, but it also showed what an utter dipshit that woman is. Her numbers dropped after the bus tour.
ReplyDeleteIt's not about the jury duty....
ReplyDeleteIt is about the excuses. Always an excuse, always a reason. Never her fault.
This harkens back to her post VP fail days.
ReplyDeleteRemember when she was committed and then refused to show. Her reasons were 1. I never said I would attend 2. never invited 3. scheduling conflict.
Why anybody in their right mind would trust this woman after the lying, quitting and no shows is beyond me.
This is what I learned from MY mother.
If you say yes to someone or commit to something, you need to honor that commitment. You don't back out because something better has come along.
You don't quit(see above on commitments).
You DO NOT Lie. It's in the Commandments.
I don't know how many times her bots need to be reminded that this woman is amoral, a liar, unreliable and a grifter.
I do not feel sorry for them anymore.
It's time to take away the Koolaid!
I'm a musician. I've always responded by mail: "Touring musician. On the East Coast (or wherever) during requested time."
ReplyDeleteNever a problem.
Interesting thought? How many days must an Alaskan resident actually be present in the state in order to collect the yearly check from the state?
ReplyDeleteMaybe she's just catching up on her residency?
No matter....she still can't tell the truth.
Anybody read Shailey Tripp's blog lately? Weird stuff there now that her case has been heard in court. Looking for that link....
Palin needs to smack down the media for reporting the obvious. Her PAC invited people to follow the One Nation Tour/Palin vacation. Without a schedule provided Palin dared journalists to "do their job" which equated to figure it out lamestream media. The disclosed national tour terminated in days. The Palin offspring were angry. Accusing the media for ruining their "vacation" despite their mother orchestrating the media to pursue their billboard RV!
ReplyDeleteJust because they flew home and announced she is going to Sudan do not say the history/vacation tour is not in progress! Damn media lyin' again.
Let us appease Palin: although she announced plans to be out of the country, her kids were angrier then bulls, half the 'family' bailed, her PAC mislead people just do not present reality. Let us believe (wink wink) jury duty summons was vital to curtail planned trip abroad and delay legs of the great USA educational tour to educate people.
Another awesome self promotion leaving people more doubtful about Palin. Shame on everyone for not reading her mind.
Gryphen, jury duty is not a responsibility to be taken lightly or shirked.
ReplyDeleteIt may or may not be a convenient excuse, but criticizing her for doing her civic duty is petty and wrong.
Now, if you find out that it's yet another Palin lie, by all means, have at it.
Come on. You can postpone it if you already have a trip planned.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's one day unless you're chosen to serve. No way either of the lawyers is going to want her on the jury. So she shows up one day, get's released and it's over.
Yes, Ms. Quittypants is making an excuse for hiding from the media. Probably boning up on history using Piper's history book.
"... a bus is driving news stories today. " and she is loving every minute of it. And plans to keep it that way.
ReplyDelete"Todd, does this snark make my bus look big?"
"...the media with their long track record of getting things wrong or just making things up."
ReplyDeleteWOW. What's this all about? THE media? All of the media? Kind of wierd generalization. Pretty much that's all I see ever coming out of her.
When Gov.Duhbya got called for jury duty in Austin he had to have a lawyer (Gonzo, in fact) go with him to tell the Judge that he couldn't serve on account of his record of DWI.
ReplyDeleteThey ask all sorts of nosy questions 1f you get onto jury panel and Duhbya couldn't risk that. Cause if he lied about daddie getting him out of legal hot water, he could get impeached. So Gonzo aka Alberto Gonzales, the slime ball.) had to make sure Duhbya didn't have to deal with a truthy problem.
Wonder if Sarah needs a lawyer to cover her ...?

In Texas I was called up for city/county petty jury 6 times and served once.
And for county/state trials 3 times and served on a murder jury.
I showed up for the call every time.
The exceptions are very limited. Md's, teachers during regular session, single parents, a sole caregiver to a very young or disabled person. And that is about it.
There are numerous other exceptions that a judge may grant on a one by one basis, but do so reluctantly, as it puts an unfair burden on others and the cost of the initial cattle call,and subsequent winnowing out processes are time consuming, personnel consuming and therefore expensive to the tax payer.
The point is to ensure that every American who wants a jury trial by their peers can fill the jury box in timely manner.
I would love to see Sarah on a jury. It would be a good lesson in discipline, and keeping her mouth shut to the press.
ReplyDeleteThere is a fairly long laundry list of restrictions on the members of a jury, and keeping your mouth shut and your opinions to yourself are high on the list.
Also too, patience, sitting listening attentively, and keeping an open mind, making judgement only on the facts presented during the case, all of which I suspect Sarah is wildly incapable of.
$illy $arah is calling in all political favors to be called for Jury Duty. Nobody was impressed with her all expenses paid bus trip where she thought it was oh so funny to play cat and mouse with the media, tying up traffic and running red lights and driving the wrong way down side streets and putting the general public in harms way because she enjoyed all the attention she was getting for going rogue. Only problem was that the whole country saw how the Palins were abusing the system and using donations to the PAC to support their expensive lifestyle. Turned out the bus trip didn't get all the donations that Sarah had hoped so some excuse had to be found so that voters wouldn't think that Palin had quit another thing. Foreign country experience would be a good idea--except nobody got a sense that the Palin-Franklin Graham adventure to Haiti was advantageous to anyone except the Palin and the Graham's bank accounts and Obama was not recommending travel to Sudan; Margaret Thatcher didn't want to be involved in the games that Sarah plays to impress her adoring fans. Bristol's book was so full of obvious half truths and made it look like Bristol was the local slut--so that wasn't helping Sarah's image. The week of July 4th was so focussed on Casey Anthony so a bus trip that week wouldn't get the Palins the donations they like. The following week the Royal Family is coming to California so they will be in the news, as everyone likes Will and Kate more than hearing about the Paylins again. Thank heavens Rebecca Mansour comes up with good ideas--jury duty is the perfect solution why Palin will not compete for media coverage for a few weeks. That will give Sister Sarah time for recovering from plastic surgery or looking for more excuses about why she cannot attend any of the political debates.
