"Help me, help me, Alaska! I am just a defenseless millionaire who once used my job to bully those who dared to question me! Can't you see I'm the victim here? |
Assistant Attorney General Dale House said Palin asked the state to help defend her against the lawsuit by activist Chip Thoma.
The claims made against Palin date to when she was governor, and House said Wednesday that it's typical for the state to get involved if the person is being sued largely because of the title they held or because of something they did in the course of their official duties. He said there are exceptions, including for criminal cases.
House said the state will pay for his participation but not for Palin's personal lawyer, John Tiemessen, who will be co-counsel.
Thoma is suing Palin for at least $100,000, claiming that she undertook a campaign to "punish, embarrass, discredit and silence" him while governor after he complained about tour bus traffic on the windy, narrow streets around the governor's mansion.
Fuck this! I certainly do not want to pay for this quitters legal bills!
Especially since I believe that Thoma has a pretty damn good case against her.
And according to the comments beneath this article at ADN, I am not the only Alaskan that feels this way.
Sounds to me like Palin's very intimidated that this is going to turn out to be something over which she will not be able to wriggle off the hook. Magnificent timing!
Well, if anyone read Frank Bailey's book they would know $Palin did it on purpose. He has the emails that back it up. I wonder if they will be able to use her own emails against her.
Why? Why is the state STILL paying this worthless woman? WHY?
The state should not incur any part of this lawsuit. Wouldn't that also make the state liable in some manner? Palin used her office to embarrass a private citizen and she should not ask for state help to defend herself.
Everybody up here knows that Palin used her position as Governor to go after her enemies, bully other Alaskans, and give her family and friends state jobs and perks to keep them loyal.
And now that somebody is finally going after her in court for her illegal behaviors she is playing the victim again and asking the state that she abandoned to protect her.
She will NEVER change.
she's crashing the party!
ReplyDeleteBREAKING: Palin bus tour to roll into Iowa
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2011/08/10/palin-bus-tour-to-roll-into-iowa/
SP doesn't have any money doncha' know....wink wink. You betcha'.
ReplyDeleteIs she going to ask the state to defend her when the Trig Hoax is plastered all over the media?
ReplyDeletefull term gov - full pay for legal defense
ReplyDeletequitter gov - adjust the legal defense accordingly - should be about 1/2 of one lawyer.
Ok, I agree, especially considering the bitch has a "legal defense fund"
ReplyDeletethat she est up tp replace the one that was found illegal. Boy she didn't do you folks any favors while in office and loos like her stink continues to foul the air up there!
I am glad Bailey's book is out, so now it's not you and AKM and Shannyn and the other bloggers who are saying what a bully she is. One of the very people who acted the bully for her has said so.
ReplyDeleteBut it is you guy's tenacity and endurance along with people like Andrea and Celtic Diva who kept the spot lights focused in on Sarah's dark dirty secrets.
It's summer in Alaska -
Time to open the windows and let the sun shine and fresh air in.
Now if we could just figure out how to disinfect the US capitol...
The grifter continues to exploit Alaskans--no surprise...
ReplyDeleteBut it seems she is determined to (once again) be the spoiler for all the REPUGs fighting for the theocratic vote in Iowa:
Source: ABC News
ABC News has confirmed that Sarah Palin will re-launch her “One Nation” bus tour in Iowa tomorrow, the same day that Republican presidential contenders will take the stage for a debate in Ames, Iowa.
A SarahPAC fundraising email obtained by ABC News details the former Alaska governor’s plans to “meet folks at the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines this week.”
“The heartland is perfect territory for more of the One Nation Tour as we put forth efforts to revitalize the fundamental restoration of America by highlighting our nation's heart, history, and founding principles,” Palin writes in the email. “State fairs hold a special place in our nation's history and heritage, so my family is honored to highlight one of them on one stop along the One Nation Tour route - America's historic Iowa State Fair! (I'm also excited to try some of that famous fried butter-on-a-stick, fried cheesecake-on-a-stick, fried twinkies, etc. I'll enjoy them in honor of those who'd rather make us just ‘eat our peas!’)”
A source with knowledge of the trip told ABC News that plans for an Iowa visit have been in place since at least Tuesday. As of this morning, only about four people besides Palin knew about the trip. The source also said that a handful of Iowa GOP members and elected officials were notified about the trip minutes before the SarahPAC email went out.

Wow. She has no shame. Actually, I think this is a perfect example of her sociopathic tendencies. She's fucking crazy.
ReplyDeleteWhat Really Makes Sarah Special
ReplyDeleteNOTHING.
http://www.teapartytribune.com/2011/08/10/what-really-makes
-sarah-special/
"Sarah Palin, the woman who claimed she quit her job as Governor to save the state money, is asking the state to pay for her defense against a lawsuit."
ReplyDeleteOkay, why isn't someone sounding the alarm on this fraud!
The Teabag Empress is asking for *gasp*, the government to step-in and help.
What a effin hypocrite!
Certainly expected coming from a person who will viciously berate her own spouse for frivolously purchasing a bit of deer jerky (or some such item)at a convenience store.
ReplyDeletePalin resuming the bus trip. Making appearance at Iowa State Fair this weekend.
ReplyDeleteWonder why? Let me guess!! She thinks she's going to suck the air out of the Repugs appearing in Iowa this weekend. Remember, Perry will be in Iowa to at some point as he's hitting 3 states on the weekend.
Note her did at Michelle in her last sentence:
"I'm also excited to try some of that famous fried butter-on-a-stick, fried cheesecake-on-a-stick, fried twinkies, etc. I'll enjoy them in honor of those who'd rather make us just "eat our peas"!)
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0811/61056.html
Don't forget your SLUT shoes and WATER BRA Snowdrift SLUT!!! That's all that works for ya now as your face looks like a Mack truck has run over it!!!!
Finally the hammer is coming down on this disgusting idiot/bully! With Joe and Levi's books in the offing and the anti Palin documentary to come as well, soooo many nails for her celebrity coffin! The 'shameful joy' is finger licking good!
ReplyDeleteI think it's sweet irony she has a daughter named Piper, because now her bill is due! Let the popcorn pop and the beer flow. Wadda summer!
Why does the world enjoys Sarah's problems?
ReplyDeleteIt is so funny how everything she touches turns to palin.
Is this a potential JURY TRIAL in Alaska? Now we know why she went back to AK it was to threaten Sean into giving her counsel. I hope it is a jury event though cause she is going to be paying big time.
ReplyDeleteSarahPAC is whoring for donations again for the 'bus trip to Iowa:
ReplyDeleteDear SarahPAC Supporter,
We are very happy to jump back on the bus for another leg of our “One Nation Tour”! We accept with gratefulness an invitation to meet folks at the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines this week. The heartland is perfect territory for more of the One Nation Tour as we put forth efforts to revitalize the fundamental restoration of America by highlighting our nation’s heart, history, and founding principles.
In a grossly weakened economy – especially when recovery is thwarted by today’s Obamanomics – prudent Americans make sensible decisions to live within their means. This includes seeking affordable participation in more community events, local patriotic parades, and traditional all-American venues like state fairs. State fairs hold a special place in our nation’s history and heritage, so my family is honored to highlight one of them on one stop along the One Nation Tour route – America’s historic Iowa State Fair! (I’m also excited to try some of that famous fried butter-on-a-stick, fried cheesecake-on-a-stick, fried twinkies, etc. I’ll enjoy them in honor of those who’d rather make us just “eat our peas”!)
Unlike next week’s Obama Bus Tour, taxpayers aren’t funding our tour, which is why we so appreciate your support in allowing us to be out there on the open road to visit with you to highlight small towns, big-hearted people, and the important role they play in our most exceptional nation.
You can participate with support for the “One Nation Tour” through SarahPAC.com and following virtually by bookmarking the SarahPAC website. We’ll have updates from the road as our Constitution-draped bus travels to shine a spotlight on more of our nation’s fine history. Watch this video and let the American road inspire you!
Thank you for your continued support of SarahPAC. Let’s stay committed to the worthy cause – restoring all that is good and strong and free in America!
Thank you sincerely,
Sarah Palin
You know the bus/RV is in the lower 48. They didn't flipping drive it back up to AK. So this is to pay for her 'private jet' to drag the deadwood with her.
If you don't know who the deadwood is -- that Chuckles, Sally, WhoreToad, Piper.
Instead of enjoying the birth of her premature grandbaby, Sarah has to deal with more lawsuits, Mercede's pictures and articles, Track telling Sarah to stay the fuck out of his business, Bristol looking like a washed out crack whore on the streets of LA, trying to keep Willow from getting pregnant, more stuff about Todd and his prostitutes from Shailey Tripp, the failure of her movie and bus tour.
ReplyDeleteIt has been a great month so far.
Just wait till next month when more books and a movie comes out about her, that might put her over the edge.
If you and all the other AK'an don't want to pay better mount a huge email campaign to your House & Senate.
ReplyDelete"Everybody up here knows that Palin used her position as Governor to go after her enemies, bully other Alaskans...."
Gryphen...she STILL IS! NOTHING HAS CHANGED! SHE USES THE STATE EVERYTHING FOR WHAT EVER SHE WANTS INCLUDING THE HARASSMENT OF BLOGS.
What a turd that Sarah is.
ReplyDeleteThe Quitter's not making any friends among Republicans running for POTUS with her cutesy-wutesy upstaging shenanigans, first stealing poor Romney's thunder, then Bachmann's in Iowa (or trying to), now she's going after Rick Perry's showtime in Iowa--again. But is the Quitter runnin'? Only her hairdresser knows for sure. What a travesty this woman is!
ReplyDelete"I'm also excited to try some of that famous fried butter-on-a-stick, fried cheesecake-on-a-stick, fried twinkies, etc. I'll enjoy them in honor of those who'd rather make us just "eat our peas"!)
ReplyDeleteThat's what I call being retarded. Bristol has self esteem problems and after seeing Mercede's beautiful pictures Sarah is willing to stuff Bristol with fried butter-on-a-stick, fried cheesecake-on-a-stick, fried twinkies, etc.
What a great mom Sarah is NOTTTT!
First you try to adopt her second child then stuff that cow with birth control pills and now fried butter-on-a-stick. Great job there Sarah.
Is Granny Hypocrite going to take Piper to manage security on this trip? Or will Piper have to stay home to take care of one of her many nieces and nephews?
ReplyDeleteSo what happened to the lawsuit or cease and desist over the trademarked One Nation? Will her bus have a new skin?
ReplyDeleteGosh darnit! This woman is just not good enough for this great country! Her family is a mess. She has two adult children who haven't even applied to colleges, yet they have babies! Unrill!
ReplyDeleteGo to Iowa, Sarah. Rick Perry will put an end to you there, so you might as well have a ringside seat, you pathetic, psychotic asshole. Eat shit and d**
He's not suing her for what she did in her official capacity as Governor. He's suing her for being an a-hole who slandered him mercilessly. I'm surprised she doesn't settle out of court. Those emails speak for themselves and Sarah's not Alaska's sweetheart anymore.
ReplyDeleteWhen she is found guilty, does that mean the State pays all the 'awards' to the man suing her?
ReplyDeleteAK citizens better start barking as that is not a part of the job of Governor to intimidate and threaten.
I'm sure the plaintiff will be calling Bailey as evidence together with his 'emails'.
Palin is toast!!
Speaking of perks, I feel sure that Betty Beehive's reality show is just a payoff to keep her from talking. Hairdressers know (or suspect) everything.
ReplyDeleteSarah on going to theIowa State Fair: "I'm also excited to try some of that famous fried butter-on-a-stick, fried cheesecake-on-a-stick, fried twinkies, etc. I'll enjoy them in honor of those who'd rather make us just "eat our peas"!
ReplyDeleteI guess it doesn't matter when you use liposuction as a means of weight control.
Is this another "family" trip? Aren't the kids starting back to school? Do any of Sarah's kids still go to school?
ReplyDeleteHELP ME HELP ME I'm a single teenage unemployed mom and I'm being sued...
ReplyDeleteWait a minute, my bad... Wrong Palin.
HELP ME HELP Me I'm an unemployed mother of 4 kids and God only know how many grandkids with an unemployed prostitute chasing husband and I'm getting sued.
By the way send more money, we are going on another family vacation again. I need to fleece my sheep before I announce that I'm not running for POTUS.
With all the shitting she's doing on her fellow republicans' parades...I think she's going to run, but she's going to go 3rd party.
ReplyDeleteSarahPac and the Palins wants more money for their vacation. How much money for the new shrink wrap for the bus since you can't use the old one?

ReplyDeleteInteresting - I can't find her Defense Fund donation button ...
a n y w h e r e
Not on C4P - not on SarahPAC -
hmm
"All that traffic was because Piper had a lemonade stand, doncha know? So why shouln't the State of Alaska not pay for this frivolous lawsuit?" The defeated. undefeated food stained clothes wearing, water bra, leopard shoes three sizes too big, empathy belly, divorced, dominionist queen of the north star, racist teahadist bobbleheaded half term governor with road kill glued to her hair.
ReplyDeleteNice Try, hypocrite! Always looking for a government handout.
Try selling more pics to newsweek, it's worked so well before! lmao
Can you even imagine those poor people in America's Heartland sending this grifter their hard-earned dollars because she has the ability to package herself as their savior? There truly are people whom believe if they keep shoveling money at her that she will save them. Watch her latest SarahPAC Propaganda video, I was sick that anyone would buy into this, but THEY ARE SENDING HER MONEY!!! Are people really this stupid??? Are these even real people??? What the HELL kind of country am I living in??? It's just got to be some kind of spoof, no one could possibly believe this grifter is going to save anybody. Hell, she can't even keep her kids to a standard, how's she supposed to handle Congress? Bash them with her nightstick? Tease them with her waterbra? Sick Todd on them? Oh My God, this is a continually entertaining trainwreck. She makes us all feel dirty for watching.
ReplyDeleteThe majority of Alaska very much dislike Palin with only 'one' of the reasons being for the crap she has spread during the past few years. She creates nothing but trouble/havoc in whatever she becomes involved.
ReplyDeleteThe last thing we want to do in Alaska is pay her legal fees for a case she brought on herself. (AGAIN) It is been proven already (documented too) - in Bailey's book - that she was responsible and will lose the case.
Sarah, pay your own legal bills! You can assuredly afford it. Alaskans are NOT responsible for you. Remember, you QUIT!!!
That bitch. I tell you, if she does not stop taking jabs at our beautiful, caring First Lady, I won't feel badly about whatever I might be possessed to do if I am ever anywhere near her. Stop it Sarah. Or watch your ugly back!
ReplyDeletePalin makes herself the skunk at everyone's party.
ReplyDeleteBarack Obama's bus tour will include northeastern Iowa next week.
So, she coincidentally just happens to resume her grifting tour in Iowa.
She's so obvious and so pathetic.
Romney bought Palin's excuse when she crashed his announcement.
Bachmann and Perry may not be as nice.
Or maybe they'll just ignore her.
She's also stepping on the Iowa debate sponsored by...FOX News.
The media better be too busy covering
the presidential bus tour
and the real candidates who are actually campaigning
to give this nutcase
the same level of unwarranted attention they did last time.
The last thing Americans need to see in these troubled times is Sarah Palin
sucking on a fried Twinkie.
She must have had Tawd's balls surgically implanted.
ReplyDeleteShe is un-friggin-believable.
She's triangulating. She wants people to hate Thoma for suing her. Some will. She's very good at pandering to people too stupid to know better.
ReplyDeleteShe's just going to make a bigger ass of herself. The more we get to see Sarah in the limelight, the more we get to delight over her blunders. Iowans are good, common sense people. So are Americans, and it doesn't take much to see through her motives. She's shallow and fake, and good Christians can feel that in their heart. Sarah, stop stirring up hatred in our country for money, WE KNOW what you are about.
ReplyDeleteSarah is cut from the same cloth as all those Sunday morning (and every other morning) television evangelists who suck their pathetic believers dry. Watch one some Sunday if you can stand it, and you'll see what I mean.
ReplyDeleteThere is NOTHING terrible enough that karma can do to her. But I hope Karma gives it the best shot available.
ReplyDeleteSarah will never be able to extricate herself from the fact that she used people for money, and whored out poor Bristol to do the same. This woman is beyond contemtable. If it's any consulation, I have good friends that are Christian right-wingers, and they said they would never vote for Bachmann and they think Sarah is a joke.
ReplyDeletecaption: "Help me, help me, Alaska!...Can't you see I'm the victim here?"
ReplyDeleteNo, but in that pic we can sure see your ugly ass pushing-50 turkey neck.
Had she robbed a bank while in office would the State even consider a financial assist in her defense? Would there not be a riot among the AK citizenry if they did?? Last I checked, abuse of power is not listed in the gubenatorial job description.
ReplyDeleteI know little about AK state laws but I wonder if the voting public gets a say in granting this expenditure especially if she's found guilty. It would set an ugly precedent to other sitting pols who could then skirt the law with fiscal impunity. Seems doubtful that the sitting governor will raise much of a fuss about how to spend his budgetary funds as he may need the same discretion in the future.
The state should only pay if the lawsuit was brought against a public servant while doing business in the capacity of their job.
ReplyDeleteWhat she did with junior high mean girl antics was not part of her position as Governor. That was the private person Palin asshat. But sadly, that distinction will never be made.
Uggh! This woman really makes me sick.
anon 315pm: "She's fucking crazy."
ReplyDelete.....x 10,000!
There, fixed that for ya.
"We'll have pointless yappy updates from the road as our Constitution-draped bus wastes hundreds of gallons of gas! Join us as we shine a spotlight on Part 2 of Sarah's Narcissistic Tour of Mangled US History™.....that is, right up until the minute she quits again!"
ReplyDeleteI don't think that the State of Alaska should have to pay one penny in Sarah's defense in this matter. This was her personal vendetta against a private citizen who raised a safety issue. She should be on her own in this one.
ReplyDeleteyeah this totally figures.
ReplyDeletewhat this guy is accusing her of has NOTHING to do with her scope of duties as governor, and as such, the state shouldn't pay. but of course the grifter doesn't see it that way so she is going to take all she can get. I bet that if she caused a car accident during the time she was governor and the victim sued, she would say the state should pay for it because she was governor. she's completely divorced form reality.
Hey Palin, FOAD already. You're yesterday's news.
ReplyDelete
