The Sanford for Congress committee reported this afternoon it received $2,500 on 4/18 from Sen. John McCain’s leadership PAC, Country First PAC. Mark Sanford (R-S.C.) is running against Elizabeth Colbert Busch (D-S.C.) in the SC-01 May 7 Special General Election to fill the seat vacated by Rep. Tim Scott (R-S.C.), who was appointed a U.S. Senator.
The McCain contribution was received one day after a spokesperson for the National Republican Congressional Committee confirmed that they would not be spending any money on behalf of Sanford. See Roll Call article.
Well that's interesting. While the NRCC is pulling away because they find Sanford to be a candidate that they do not want to be associated with, John McCain has no problem handing over money to a man who used public funds to pay for his affair and then was caught lying about it.
And yet when McCain received 1.3 million in leftover funds from his 2008 campaign, he did not give a DIME of it to his running mate and perennial presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
I guess some liars are just a little less palatable to John McCain than others.
By the way somehow I don't think that McCain's $2,500.00 is going to do Sanford much good in this race.
The Elizabeth Colbert Busch for Congress committee reported it had received $48,700 in last-minute contributions on 4/18.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee reported it had made $218,404 in independent expenditures on 4/18 opposing Mark Sanford (R-S.C.). The DCCC paid $207,884 to Great American Media (DC) for media buys, and paid $10,520 to Adelstein/Liston LLC (IL) for media production.
And that is BEFORE her brother Stephen Colbert REALLY starts to campaign on her behalf.
Maybe that means he KNOWS she can not and will not run for anything again? Except maybe the border when all her lies are exposed.
ReplyDeleteNaturally he knows that, as anyone with two working brain cells does. There are myriad reasons she's never running again. First, not many people are stupid enough to vote for her, and secondly the GOP has some very long knives at the ready for her and she is quite aware of that fact. She's been sitting in her cage throwing her feces since 2008 and now she's taken to throwing most of it at people like Karl Rove. Is anyone naive enough to think that they don't know exactly where her skeletons are?
DeleteI think if McCain asked Sanford to do something, Sanford would actually do it; I don’t think he’s a very bright man, and would be a good little puppy. Palin would do the opposite, jeer, and think she was very clever.
ReplyDeleteSanford’s skeletons, although strange, are mostly out of the closet and people have examined them. Palin’s hanging her clothes on the bed posts, since her closet is crammed to the ceiling.
I actually e-mailed a thank you note to John McCain after he voted for cloture on the Senate Background check legislation that failed. It blew me away when he did that. Now it looks like they readjusted his meds and he is back to being an asshat!
ReplyDeleteJohn McCain, the Sybil of the repugnant party. You never know who you will get with that guy.
Delete"And yet when McCain received 1.3 million in leftover funds from his 2008 campaign, he did not give a DIME of it to his running mate and perennial presidential candidate Sarah Palin."
ReplyDeleteHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAAA...catching my breath...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
No surprise that McCain donated to Sanford's campaign. Those adulterers gotta stick together!
ReplyDeleteTruly funny, though, that McCain gave nothing to Granny Grifter's PAC. Watch out Wasilla refrigerator - more flying cans are on the way! (Do we also need to warn the Scottsdale refrigerator?!)
It was a couple days ago, I saw a live interview with McCain. He may have been talking about a speech Obama gave. I think he said the speech was good. At the end of the interview, he said he has made some mistakes, then giggled. I think he was referring to Sarah. I will look for the interview.
DeletePoor Scottsdale. Every time I hear she is back in town I get out my wax doll and hat pins. Like we don't have enough problems in Arizona?
DeleteWhy give money to his ex-bimbo? She will never run again for any office.
ReplyDeleteJohnny likes men that leave their wives for hotter and younger babes. He can relate.
Exactly!
DeleteWell, Stanford's sins are akin to McCains - infidelity and lying, but mostly, both have a common link - their gender.
ReplyDeleteTheir gender --- their inbred sense of entitlement, their overblown (but undeserved) egos, their lack of empathy and compassion, their brain below the belt rationale, their malignant pathology, their inability to survive without a cushy political job.... I'm sure there are even MORE similarities but thinking about either of them makes me ill and I have to go lie down.
Delete8:45
DeleteCareful about lumping the gender factor into this, most of what you've described can be attributed to sarah palin, too.
But I agree, two peas in a pod holding each other up.
The reason that McCain identifies with Sanford is because McCain spends so much time in Washington while Cindy is back home in one of their 6 or 8 houses. Maybe John secretly wishes that he could hike the Appalachian Trail, too.
DeleteJohn McCain has already 'Hiked the Appalachian Trail' with VICKI ISEMAN. Lowell 'Bud' Paxson used that 'AFFAIR' to force McCain to pick Sarah 'FELLOW FUNDIE' Palin as a running mate. Paxson needed a Puppet Fundie on the Republican Ticket to help with his Fundie Agenda. Maybe that is why 'PAXSON' is part of Trig's name. Sarah's Attorney Thomas Van Flein assisted Sarah with the 'adoption' of Trig. Maybe that is why 'VAN' is part of Trig Van Paxson Palin's name. It is strange that a woman would name her "Gift From God" after her Attorney and a Fundamentalist Newspaper owner instead of naming him after her Husband. The same goes for Track, her 1st born, not being named Todd Jr. But Curtis Menard would have stepped in.
DeleteHe didn't give her any money because she hasn't run for anything and she won't be running for anything. He is probably well aware of the fact that it's a personal slush fund.
ReplyDeleteNever a more deserving pair of each other than the McCain/Palin ticket. He can shower all he wants to, the stink will never leave. His legacy and his alone when he dies.
ReplyDeleteJohn gave Sarah the opportunity to make millions .. no need to give her any more.
ReplyDeleteSarah said today that Willow always wanted to visit Prague, but since that is where the Boston bombers are from, she has decided not to go.
Where did she say this?
Delete9:01
DeleteSatire.
I agree that when Sarah finished campaigning with McCain, she had (1) ruined whatever chances he might have had to be elected and (2) she received so many offers to cash in that she didn't bother to finish her term as governor.
DeleteHowever, the bombers did not come from Prague. They are not Czech. Oh, was that supposed to be a joke? Chechnya, Czech Republic? LOL They actually came from a former Soviet Republic, Kyrgyzstan. I think that Sarah can see it from her house.
Yes, it is a joke.
DeleteYou could offer Sarah and family a $1,000,000 if they could point to Chechnya or Czech Republic on a map. Nobody in family would win the money.
Graduated at the bottom of his class, wrecked four jets, got captured and picked the most unqualified person in the fucking HISTORY of presidential politics to be his running mate. He very nearly put a sociopathic nincompoop a heartbeat away from the launch codes. John McCain needs to go to a rubber room somewhere because this prick is nuts.
ReplyDeleteAnd he can thank GOD he lost. The Palin Mafia would have seen to it that hesrtbeat stopped.
DeleteI would bet my life savings that, privately, John McCain HATE HATE HATES Sarah and blames her for his loss but that he refuses to say so in public because he doesn't want to look stupid. I mean, the dude also claimed to be a family man and yet....he and his wife live in separate states and she adopted a baby without telling him!
ReplyDeleteI don't doubt that McCain hates Sarah Palin with a passion.
DeleteMcCain is forever tainted with the Sarah Palin Curse.
There's nothing he can do to get it off of him.
Originally McCain wanted Joe Lieberman as his running mate, but he got a big No! No! (Too moderate and he's a Democrat). The neocon's liked Sarah after they had a cruise up there to Alaska. Sarah must have been a big hit with the religious right, especially after she adopted Trig (I mean, claimed that she gave birth to Trig). Bristol almost screwed that up, but an unwed teen mother is OK as long as they produced a fiance and the promise of a wedding. (Poor Levi). Finally, Palin "energized" McCain. There are photos of him leering at her butt. At first, his hormones must have come back to life. Then, after two weeks of trying to teach Sarah something, anything, they must have realized that they bought a pretty package without bothering to look inside. And, yes, I think that many people could not vote for McCain because of Sarah. In the end, even some Republicans knew that she was a disaster. I remember Peggy Noonan, who didn't know that the microphone was picking up her comments, said, "We are so screwed." Peggy was so right!
DeleteRemember, even one of the campaign managers for the McCain/Palin ticket didn't vote for them because of Sarah! That even showed up in the movie "Game Change"!
DeleteSarah is, was and will always be a total disaster. She hasn't changed in years! Evil, ugly and mean - inside and out!!
Does anybody who had or has an association with Sarah Palin really likes Sarah other than a financial interest?
ReplyDeleteEven Track keeps his ex daughter away from Sarah.
She is a loner - known fact. Has never had girlfriends around her - even in high school which has extended into her adult life.
DeleteThe woman is nothing more than an idiot, fraud and liar. Who in the hell WOULD want to be associated w/her? She cannot be trusted as far as you could throw her and she is ALL about Sarah and has always been. That latter point keeps her from being 'friendable'!!!! (A new word for you sister Sarah!).
Britta seemed to work for Palin around 2008.I think that she was part of the campaign staff when Sarah was running for VP. (Or else she was a glorified babysitter for Trig?)
DeleteAnom 9:54, I don't understand what you are saying that Sarah Palin is a loner? According to Sarah she's a Christian, so she must have tons of friends from the church she attends and the Bible study group she hosts in her big house.
DeleteTalk about being a loner, does anybody in the Palin family have any real close friends? Do they host parties or weddings? It appears that they are all dysfunctional with the Sarah Palin Can't Trust Anybody Syndrome.
Delete"A second McCain source says she appears to be looking out for herself more than the McCain campaign. "She is a diva. She takes no advice from anyone," said this McCain adviser. "She does not have any relationships of trust with any of us, her family or anyone else."
Hmmm, does she 'skype in' from Arizona for those study groups???? With the millions of photo ops we've endured from and about the Palins, don't recall any coming to or from 'church', sitting in a pew, fancy outfits for the holiday services etc. Seem to recall Ms Bristle saying their family was too busy for attending church.
Delete12:08 PM Bristol and Willow can't have Sex at Church like they did with all of the Boys in High School during School Hours. Todd's Prostitution Ring would not be welcome, and all of the Members know about him. Sarah would not be able to dress like a Street Hooker and wag her Tongue without the Good Christian Women of the Church complaining.
DeleteAnonymous9:54 AM
Delete"She is a loner"
I believe there's a typo here - s/b She is a LOSER - you know, like a certain Uncle recently called his Bostonian nephew on T.V.
No, I meant 'loner', but 'loser' also fits perfectly. Sarah Palin is a horrible example of womanhood, motherhood, sainthood (haha!), etc.
DeleteNot even Summer's Eve can clean the Palin stinch off of McCain's fingers.
ReplyDeleteNo wonder Todd is not sexually attracted to Sarah anymore and pursued Shailey Tripp.
DeleteSarah must be nasty.
"They actually came from a former Soviet Republic, Kyrgyzstan" -9:33am (referring to the Boston terrorists)
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Todd has any ties to them since he was or is AIP?
Most children has a closer bond and relationship with their mothers. I find it strange that for some reason Trig is closer to Todd and Bristol.
ReplyDeleteLol after Sarah reads this, watch her spend more time with her stepson.
DeleteWell Todd is an outdoorsy kinda guy that loves sex. Does he drink wine coolers too?
DeleteWell, a child instinctively knows who are their real parents. Just saying.
DeleteSince we're on the subject of being a loner and can't keep any friends, what about Mini Me? Does Bristol have the same problems as Sarah? Bristol had relationships with Dylan, Levi, Ben, Levi, Gino, Junker, Gino and all those others but she can't keep any of her baby daddies, trial husbands and what nots.
ReplyDeleteWhat's going on in that bloodline?
Once the Trial Daddies find out how Borderline Retarded and Inept that Bristol and Willow are, they run away.
DeleteWhat about Todd? Is he a loner with friends issues too? What happened to his BFF and snowmachine business partner Brad Hanson? Where's his "You light up my life" girlfriend Shailey Tripp?
ReplyDeleteHow come Todd doesn't have any relationships with his mother, father and siblings? Is there one picture, recent or old with any of his blood relatives, aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents?
What about Track? Is he a loner loser like the rest of the Palin family?
DeleteLost his wife and child but he got to keep his three amigos Remington, Smith and Wesson.
Sarah said that Todd (who can't even build a 14 foot good neighbor fence) built the Wasilla red two story house with a couple of buddies. Where are those buddies if they ever existed? Does he hang around them?
DeleteI don't know about the Palins, but when some buddies help you build a house or lay concrete, you usually return the favor and help them. Haven't seen or heard about handyman Todd returning the favors?
$arah humped Brad; that was the kiss of death for the snowmobile business!
DeleteAbbafan is that why Todd doesn't have to work for the rest of his life? Sarah owes him since she cost him the snowmobile business?
DeleteI'll bet Brad wishes he'd never even met the Palins...his name has been brought up as to the affair w/Sarah throughout the past years - must be so damned embarrassing for him. What would he have ever seen in the skank? Yuk!
Deletemust be so damned embarrassing for him. What would he have ever seen in the skank?
DeleteToo many wine coolers for Brad?
everytime she screeched "Drill, Baby, Drill!" she was remembering her dentist friend.
Delete12:23 It assuredly appears that Sarah and Todd Palin are one screwed up couple - as well as being individually a mess - w/many, many varied issues.
ReplyDeleteWho would want to be friends w/either of them? They are not individuals I would be interested in getting to know! Why? Because we already know too much about each of them! Yuk!!!!
Not to mention the skeletons, which is why she will NEVER run for office again and the pee'ers are too darn blind to see how they're being duped.
DeleteAgain, Christian my @ss.
Don't tell me Bristol is a loner too. She made a lot of friends on DWTS not once but twice. How come we never see her in the DWTS audience cheering on her dance partner / friend Markie and the rest of the pro dancers?
ReplyDeleteHer dance partner on DWTS is doing so much better w/o her! I like him w/his hair grown out too...much cuter.
DeleteAny of the Palins sitting in the crowd of DWTS would be a horrible curse to the show. I'll wager the producers, dancers and stars much prefer never hearing of the Palins ever again!
DeleteIf Sarah and Todd has a great relationship, then how come Todd has to get sexual favors from other women?
ReplyDeleteHave you seen Sarah naked?
DeleteI don't know. Maybe Todd's not into sloppy 7ths?
DeleteFlappy next skin, crossed eyes and her screeching voice doesn't turn him on anymore.
Deletesb Flappyneck skin
DeleteAnd the smell, DAMN.
DeleteThe Palins needs to start using condoms or get new DNA into their bloodlines.
ReplyDeleteI can hear the banjos from "Deliverance"!
DeleteHow come Todd gets to use all the condoms and his kids doesn't. I blame Todd for all those out of wedlock grandkids.
DeleteI can hear the Deliverance music too but I hear it from a flute being played at the Miss Alaska loser beauty pageant.
DeleteWhere did Todd acquire his skills to build two story houses?
ReplyDeleteCould it be from the same place where Sarah acquired her energy expert skills?
The same place their kids got their GEDs?
THEY PULLED IT OUT OF THEIR ASSES
How did McCain pick Palin to be his vp?
DeleteMust of pulled her out of his ass. That's what she's worth.
The same place Sarah got her college degree? Out of her ass.
DeleteThe same place Track got his combat skills and medals.
DeleteOut of Sarah's ass
The same place Sarah got her lame excuse to quit being the governor of Alaska.
DeleteShe pulled it out of her ass.
The same place where Sarah Palin's Alaska and Lifes A Tripp came from?
DeleteOut of Sarah's and Bristol's asses
Those Palin asses been busy.
DeleteIs that why Sarah doesn't have a nice womanly shaped ass?
DeleteYou asked where they got the red Wasilla house from?
DeleteAccording to the book Boys Will Be Boys, I'm guessing Shailey Tripp and the other prostitutes helped pay for it with the money they had to give their pimp.
Could be why Sarah doesn't live in the red house.
Would say the same place Sarah got Trig's birth certificate but nobody has seen it besides Sarah and Bristol.
DeleteWhere did the Anchorage Police Dept get the story they told that Todd had nothing to do with prostitutes or Shailey Tripp?
DeleteDon't tell me, I can figure that one out without your help.
When the McCain campaign questioned if Todd was a member of the Alaska Independence Party, guess who reached back and pulled out of her ass the lie that he wasn't?
DeleteYou guys are sharp too! Not even the McCain campaign bought that one either.
Palin lied when she denied that the Alaska Independence Party supports secession and denied that her husband had been a member; in fact, even the McCain campaign noted that the party's very existence is based on secession and that Todd was a member for seven years.
DeleteSarah Palin is a God fearing Christian woman. Sarah doesn't lie.
DeleteAre you saying that Sarah was talking out of her ass when she said she could see Russia from her house?
DeleteSarah said that she's going to throw Track and Britta a big wedding reception at a Alaska ski lodge and invite a lot of important people from the lower 48. Tell me that Sarah didn't pull that lie out of her ass too.
DeleteSarah said Bristol has great work ethics...... don't tell me..... I know
DeleteSarah is this a lie?
DeleteThe Alaskan Independence Party (AIP) is a political party in the U.S. state of Alaska that advocates an in-state referendum which includes the option of Alaska becoming an independent country. The party also advocates positions similar to those of the Constitution Party and Libertarian Party, supporting gun rights, privatization, home schooling, and limited government.
Registered members
As of May 2009 the party had 13,119 registered members, making it the state's third largest; the Republicans had 124,892 members and the Democrats had 75,047.[7]
On September 2, 2008, reports surfaced that according to the Alaska Division of Elections Todd Palin, husband of then-Governor Sarah Palin (a Republican), had registered as a member of the Alaskan Independence Party in 1995. He remained registered with the party until 2002
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaskan_Independence_Party
Sarah do you still want to run for president in 2016 or is that the way you fool your donors into donating more money to SarahPac?
DeletePalin won't run - just like last time. Hillary Clinton would clean her clock anyway - in more ways than one!
DeleteOh oh not again
ReplyDeleteRemember IM readers had to remind Sarah to wish Trig a Happy Birthday?
Well it happened again. Somebody forgot to mention on her facebook:
"Pretty spring day to celebrate Track's 24th birthday!"
Track CJ Palin was born April 20, 1989 (Source: Going Rogue p.51)
Will Sarah post pictures of his father holding and playing with Track in the snow? Hurry up, it's getting dark out there.
That's mean. Isn't his father deceased? Something about water in his airplane fuel tank?
DeleteThat Toad supposedly added to the fuel tanks!!!!
DeleteDoes Track know what happened?
DeleteI laughed so hard when I read this story. I can picture Sarah tossing canned corn at the fridge while screaming "Unflippingbelievable" over and over.
ReplyDeleteLove the photo you chose, either he's still got free food stuffed in his cheeks from the free dinners at the White House, or he's morphing into Don Rickles.
McCain is not a physically attractive man in my opinion. Hasn't been for years! A typical fat-bellied Republican that flips back and forth constantly! No wonder their party is in mass trouble throughout the nation. So many of the men in the party look just like him - obese and ready to have a heart attack!
ReplyDeleteWhere are the pictures of Trigg with his birthday cake and especially opening presents, Track's cake and family gathering? I saw no pictures of Triggs or Tripp's easter baskets or church clothes. The Palins house always looks empty.Where are all the holiday decorations, photos of holiday cooking and table setting? No one has ever seen any of them in church even for big holidays. Have any of the children been baptized? Sarah doesn't mind showing pictures of Bristol on DWTS and Willow's graduation.
ReplyDeleteThe Palns are known NOT to attend church and are the furthest thing from being 'christians' as Sarah was supposedly taught! My ass. Hell awaits her, Todd and probably other members of her family. "Ugly is as Ugly gets"!
DeleteSarah Palin emerged onto America as a rose from Alaska but within a few weeks her thorns became relevant and within a couple of years her pedals wilted and fell off and she transformed into the weed she is today.
ReplyDeleteMore like a Klingon from the crack of an old plumber's ass.
DeleteIn Wasilla we consider Sarah raw sewage.
DeleteShe should also be called the "Black Widow of Alaska" - she's frightening, racist, ugly, evil and ignorant!
DeleteThere's something weird in her genetics that Sarah got from her wrinkly parents. Either Sarah has to constantly get her SarahPac donors to fund her facelifts or Sarah is going to have to reach deep into her pockets to pay for it. I don't think that Sarah can accept looking like her mother and father. SarahPac will have to come up with some creative scams to keep up with her facelifts.
ReplyDeletePlease copy, print, mail.
ReplyDeleteDear Todd Palin,
Since the release of all the emails (can be found on Crivella West website) it is a fact that you were intricately tied to Alaska politics. It is also a fact that you had a relationship with Shailey Tripp.
The publication of Boys Will Be Boys by Shailey Tripp has brought national attention to the problems with prostitution and your role in illegally using people to become prostitutes.
For the past three years, Shailey Tripp, has stated her side of the story. For at least two years Malia Litman has asked for your side of the story. In every other instance when someone has said anything controversial or insulted your family you have been in the forefront of retorting back either with words or legal action.
So this letter would like some answers. Will you respond to the book Boys Will Be Boys by Shailey Tripp? What is your side of the story with your relationship with prostitutes and your relationship to Ms. Tripp? Will you respond to Malia Litman’s inquiries?
Thank you,
The General Public
Todd oly oly in come free
DeleteWhere are you?
Time to face the music
The thing is that all of Wasilla including Sarah, all her kids (except for Trig) and all the Heaths and Palins knows that Todd pimped out Shailey Tripp and has a sex addiction but nobody wants to talk about it. However that day is coming. Just a matter of time.
ReplyDeleteI guess Bristol, Willow, Piper and Sarah forgave Todd. But if some other slime ball pimped out Bristol, Willow or Piper you can bet all hell would break loose and there would be no forgiveness.
Delete5:56 PM No Pimp would want them, they give it away for free, and they have a problem counting.
Delete
