Well there is mooseshit to shovel concerning the Palin drunken brawl, so it's time to call out the main Mat-Su manure spreader herself Sarah Palin.

So yesterday Palin fired up her Facebook ghostwriter and had them pound out this stinking bucket of sewage in defense of her daughter: 

I understand that the CNN host who laughed at my daughter describing her assault has issued an apology to Politico. (Why Politico needs an apology is anyone’s guess. No one at CNN contacted my family regarding an apology, in case you were wondering. CNN contacts us directly on a regular basis with inquiries and requests for comment, so it’s not for lack of contact information that they didn't reach out. But perhaps Carol Costello should phone Martin Bashir. He knows how to reach us.) 

What happened on the night in question wasn’t funny. It was humiliating and frightening. The broken ribs, black eyes, and messed up elbows and knees suffered by people in our party that night were no laughing matter. Neither were Bristol’s bruises on her arms and leg from being dragged by a man. My kids aren’t proud of what happened, nor are they seeking sympathy by playing the victim card – that’s why they haven’t commented on this for all these weeks. Instead, they had to have faith that the truth would come out, despite those who did the cold-cocking actually using social media to brag, “’bout to get famous!” Screen shots of tweets captured their bold intentions, and they’ve certainly enjoyed the publicity. 

Looking at the reports, it strikes me as bitterly ironic that the same people who tell us there is a “war on women” have no problem laughing at the recording of my daughter crying as she tells police about being assaulted by a man. I’d like to say shame on the media and those on the left laughing at her or at any young woman in a similar situation, but I no longer think they have any shame. 

Now Todd and I are headed to an exciting middle school girl’s basketball game along with dozens of other families proud to cheer on their daughters. 

- Sarah Palin

Did she really dredge up poor Martin Bashir who lost his job at MSNBC for daring to speak the truth?

And this part. "My kids aren’t proud of what happened, nor are they seeking sympathy by playing the victim card" is laugh out loud funny.

As for those bruises, broken ribs, and "messed up knees and elbows" those are the result of their mouths writing checks that their bodies could not cash. In other words don't pick a fight you can't win and then blame the victor for your injuries. That is most certainly NOT the Alaskan way.

It is clear to me that the reason the Palins stayed quiet about this thing is because they were too busy praying it would all go away. Nut now that it hasn't. and we have damning audio which absolutely proves who the villains were here, they are working overtime to spin the reality into Palin approved fantasy.

And that is simple bullshit.

And it is bullshit by the way that Andrew Sullivan cannot help but smell, even as far away as he is from Alaska.

Here is what he had to say about Bristol's blog post courtesy of The Dish: 

"After a month and a half of hearing rumors about myself and family, I’ve finally decided to comment about the situation. Instead of listening to all the people who weren’t there — people who claim they heard this from their cousin/brother/sister-in-law/step-daughter/long lost little brother – let me tell you what actually happened." 

“People who weren’t there?” “Rumors”? We’re talking about a public police report detailing the views of the people, on both sides, in the middle of the melee. Then Bristol gives an account of the incident in which she simply dismisses the eye-witness accounts of all the non-Palins there that she confronted the owner of the house and repeatedly punched him in the face until he finally stopped her. The incident has now become a very disturbing and unprovoked – “scary and awful” – assault on a vulnerable woman whose only crime was acting in self-defense. Which raises the obvious question: if this is true, why on earth did she not press charges? If it’s that serious, she surely should have. Which is why CNN anchors should not be intimidated by the rightwing noise machine.

Yes there are definitely those on the Right who have apparently been paid to come to the defense of the Palins, but ANYBODY with even an ounce of journalistic integrity can immediately see what the Palins are up to here.

In fact there are those, such as all of you here, who even saw this coming days after the brawl took place.

I think that CNN and other news outlets should refuse to simply reprint the crap posted about this by Bristol and Sarah, and instead offer them the chance, on air, to tell their side of the story and answer a few simple questions.

After all if they have been so wronged by the media, if Bristol was indeed brutalized by a 200 lb man, and if other members of their family were assaulted by numerous party goers, they should welcome the opportunity.

Unless of course they're lying and are afraid of being called out on those lies publicly.
