Sarah Palin on Sean Hannity last night ratchets up her battle with PETA. Update!

The first thing I have to point out is that Palin is put together well.

She has her hair styled right, her makeup applied professionally, and she even manages to appear sane.

This may seem like a small thing, but for Palin it's quite the accomplishment these days. (However it should be pointed out that she talks incredibly fast, is at times somewhat manic, and may have partaken of some chemical assistance to help her along.)

The interview starts off with Hannity presenting Palin as the victim of liberal attacks and then asks her what she makes of it all.

"Well yeah the ridiculousness of it all Sean. Background though, PETA has been attacking me for years, and those of my ilk. They've been attacking me because they know that I eat, therefore I hunt. And you know I tell my kids that many of their meals will be..coming wrapped in fur not cellophane. And that we eat organic, you just gotta shoot it first. So you know they've never been a big fan. And then when I was governor...uh...aggressive predator control in order to allow many of our herds to thrive and see good return on our herds...uh..they didn't like that either and they were brutal back then too. But this one? I have to admit even though it seems like I've seen it all, this one kind of took me aback. "

Hannity then suggests that PETA will not like the pictures he posts of fish that he has caught, which is a fairly ridiculous statement. He then quotes PETA, including their dig at Palin (Which I enjoyed hearing on Fox News.), and suggests that PETA want animals to have constitutional rights.

Palin's response:

"Well I guess they don't know where their leather belts and leather chairs and...um...their crocodile purses, many of the elites that are part of that leftists PETA group, where those come from. No..I...I..love animals. I specifically...um...I'm in love with our dog Jill Haddassah, who is a service dog for our youngest son. Trained in Iowa at the Puppy Jake Foundation, we love her...uh...we'd never abuse her, so I think what we've done is proven the irrelevance of PETA, and many on the left, because the double standards they apply...so hypocritical. Here Ellen DeGeneres was PETA's woman of the year and she posted the same image. A child standing, using as a footstool, her dog. the little dog."

Little dog?
"And...uh..yeah there were outcries of 'oohs' and 'awws' and 'how beautiful Ellen' that was, but Sarah Palin heck no. And also their man of the year in 2014 was Mayor De Blasio who, my goodness, he killed a groundhog didn't he? (Actually he accidentally dropped it and it died a week later. Not exactly murder.) And yet still you know they...they..they praised him."

At this point Hannity tells Palin he is putting "all these pictures up" because, you know, this is totally unrehearsed.

Hannity then says that for the record this is a dog "specially trained for your son."

"Oh absolutely, and the Puppy Jake Foundation they're so good, they train these dogs to help disabled vets, that's their main purpose here. We were privileged to, having been supporters of the foundation, been able to adopt the dog that's been trained for a child with special needs. Yes there is a bond there, he's part..uh..Trig of course needing and knowing the love of this dog. Teaching him so much. And Jill yes she's a great part of our family. We're very, very happy to have her and nobody would ever hurt her."

Okay so to be clear Palin is saying that this dog was specially trained to work with special needs children even though the Puppy Jake Foundation trains dogs for injured vets, not children.  And that the people of PETA are hypocrites because they chose Ellen DeGeneres as their "Woman of the Year" even though she posted a similar picture featuring a small child on a large dog, and Mayor De Blasio once accidentally dropped a groundhog.

Is that about right?

Man she just cannot stop digging this hole can she?

Later in this same interview Palin also endorsed Louis Gohmert to take over Boehner's position as House Speaker. 
Well why wouldn't she? After all there are not many politicians out there that make her feel smart by comparison.

Update: Holy crap, she was on the Today Show this morning as well and more unhinged than ever:  

"I thought, absolutely hypocritical double standard, as usual, applied to, I don't know, perhaps a constitutional conservative,'' Palin told Savannah Guthrie on Tuesday. 

In an initial statement to NBC News on Monday, Palin referred to President Barack Obama, who admitted he tried dog meat as a 10-year-old in Indonesia, when she wrote that "at least Trig didn't eat the dog." She stood by those comments on Tuesday. 

 "Oh heck no, that was the best line in the post that I wrote,'' she said after Savannah asked if it was a cheap shot. "It was the kickoff line."

And the hole gets deeper.

      I disagree completely. It is an old Hollywood clique that as long as they spell your name right, any publicity is good publicity. But, politics isn't Hollywood & with a few exceptions we do still prefer our leaders to have a basic concept of our Constitution and more than a 3rd grade grasp of our history. If AIP Sarah Palin is competing with the Amanda Bynes, Lindsay Lohan, Rhianna or Kim & Kanye, then yeah, she is getting the attention she desires. But, if she is trying to connect with and prove herself as capable to hold a high office, I see this as a huge misstep. Hoohah!

I can't imagine any sane person thinking she could make it to the White House or any other high office.

      I raised and socialized a future Service Dog puppy from 8-18 months of age. There was a lot of basic training done, so that the dog learned to behave in as many new environments as I could provide. He also learned the very first steps of many of the complex tasks he would perform for his person. BUT he then went back to the training center for a solid year of professional training before he qualified as a Service Dog. To get a dog to that level of knowledge and performance is a 24/7 job. Calling Jill a Service Dog is an insult to all the people who do the real work of training.

    5. Yes, I agree with Bill F. above. The MSM has turned to CRAP.

      I think this was her attempt at distraction from the great work that Gryphen is doing here lately with his new source.

      This distraction "worked" in the sense that it got SP the attention, but it also turned off more of her base and exhibited more of her crazy.

      Now, I do think there is some important symbolism in all this for us truth seekers.
      So, SP is bullshitting about how she named the dog. I think it is her vicious way of striking out at Jill Biden and Hadassah Lieberman. SP wanted to be the VP. Joe Biden IS the VP and Joseph Lieberman is who McCain actually wanted to be his VP-- not Palin. Moreover, it was Joe Lieberman who famously prevented SP from getting near Pres. Obama at the White House dinner.

      SOOO , she names a female dog, a "bitch," after these two women that she is jealous of.

      BUT, there's more because who is standing on these "pretenders to the throne" in Palin's twisted mind?? Why -- it's Tri-g!! It's Trig who was supposed to stand on them for her. HE (Tri-g) was supposed to get the Vice Presidency for her... !! But we know the truth about that Sarah - and we won't let go of it, you know-- like a stubborn, noble BITCH!!

    JILL IS NOT A HIGHLY TRAINED SERVICE DOG, TRAINED TO WORK WITH A SPECIAL NEEDS CHILD. JILL IS A PET, A PET THAT IS NOT VERY WELL TRAINED AT THAT.

    Real service dogs require 18-24 months of training. Jill arrived at the Palin house when she was just a puppy, too young to have had even a year of training. Every video that includes Jill shows that she just wanders around. If she was a true service dog, she would stick to Trig's side and never leave him, and never be distracted to play with anyone else.

    Do yourself a favor at watch Sarah's video where she is seated on the red-orange sofa in Todd's workshop, with Trig and Tripp and assorted dogs coming and going. Tripp kicks Jill and later pushes Jill away with his hands. No one, not even a child, would treat a trained service dog like that. Sarah does not tell Tripp that Jill is Trig's service dog. She does not correct him. She just utters a weak, "no fighting" to the boys when they lose interest in the dogs and start fighting.

    Sarah tries to distract people by pointing out that as a child, President Obama ate dog meat, Ellen posted a picture of a child standing on a dog (which got lots of criticism too) and that Mayor DeBlasio dropped the groundhog, who died a week later. That does not erase the picture of Trig standing on a dog while Sarah admits that she is oblivious, but no that oblivious because she was able to take at least three photos. Sarah took the time to post them on her facebook, thinking that it was cute to abuse a dog. She is never sorry for anything.

    There is nothing funny about standing on a dog but Sarah has turned it into a personal attack because she is a professional victim. She still plays the victim to PETA's attacks on her when she was governor, telling people to shoot wolves from planes. Sarah cannot take criticism. She has very thin skin. And she has to respond to every criticism, even though it keeps the silly story alive a little longer.

    There is no good reason for Trig to stand on a dog. Get him a step stool. Teach him to respect animals. Pay attention to him. He could hurt himself.

      Read the story by clicking here!!!

      (Pic) -Sarah Palin with Puppy Jake CEO Becky Beach. Note the retractable lead in this photo are not approved for use with service dogs according to legitimate service dog trainers.

      ... However, in light of Sarah Palin's New Year's post on facebook, people are asking whether the Puppy Jake Foundation has committed fraud. There are serious concerns that publicly solicited donated funds were used to train Sarah's disabled son Trig's service dog, "Jill Hadassah", that was provided to a high-profile politician and Fox News talking head, rather than a needy wounded combat Veteran. These concerns have merit although it has been alleged but not confirmed that the Palin family is a supporter of the Puppy Jake Foundation and their own donations may have covered the cost of the animal and his training. The waiting list for a service dog can be as much as 5 years but it seems the Palin's did not have to wait very long. The Palin's are not listed as supporters on the Puppy Jake website.

      This is not the first incident of abuse toward the service dog according to a video posted by Sarah Palin on her facebook page.

    The man-on-dog story is proof that Sarah is now completely irrelevant. The only way that she can get noticed is by posting photos of Trig standing on a dog. Then, when people criticized her, she took it as a personal attack, especially on her special needs child. Who is in the news? Potential presidential candidates and people returning to Washington DC. Sarah doesn't matter any more, unless you count the Tea Party's backing of Gohmert as something important.

    A word about Sarah's appearance--

    The amazing Tina Dupuy was the in-studio guest on Stephanie Miller this morning, and the topic turned to Fox News' stellar make-up team. Apparently they spare no expense, so that probably explains why Sarah looks so stylish and CLEAN when the Fox "magicians" prepare her. It also explains why she looks like Patty the Daytime Hooker when she does it herself.

    The View’s Nicolle Wallace Admits to Experiencing ‘PTSD’ When She Sees Sarah Palin

    ...As O’Donnell explained, Palin found herself on the wrong side of PETA after she posted a photo of her young son Trig standing on top of the family dog to reach the sink.

    When Wallace started to defend Palin by saying “her kids are beautiful,” Griffin shot back, “Don’t play the kid card!” To that, Wallace admitted, “I’ve got nothing else except the kid card!”

    After playing a clip of Palin trying to turn the whole thing around on President Barack Obama during an interview with the Today Show, O’Donnell asked Wallace, “Do you have PTSD when you see her?”

    “A little bit,” Wallace said, laughing. “I start to sweat out.” O’Donnell said she could see the color “drain” from Wallace’s face. “Who do I get to try to kill me today. PETA or Palin?” Wallace wondered aloud.

    As long as she can float The Crazy and have sane people resond (ie PETA, but they did only after so many of her own supporters weighed in on how inappropriate the pics were).

    And so this goes on and on. I was dismayed to see a columnist from both CNN and Time weigh in on this whole utterly stupid Dog Mess and come out in support of her.

    But the media loves Sarah - both the right and the left. She makes their jobs easy. They love to love her (the right); they love to loathe her (the left).

    Hear this, Americans, you are screwed!

    According to Republicans The 114th Koch Congress Is Focused On Koch Priorities

    ...It should be a wakeup call to Americans that the first order of business for Republicans is not governing according to the American people’s priorities, but governing according to whatever means will enrich the Kochs to the tune of a hundred billion dollars, increase Boehner’s stake in Canadian tar sand companies, and provide profits for a foreign entity Canada will not let build its rupture-prone pipeline on Canadian soil. Senate Democrats devised a really clever ploy to expose the Republicans’ true intent in subverting the Constitution and Executive Branch’s power, but Republicans will strip those amendments out of the legislation with extreme prejudice because the Kochs’ priorities are not about creating American jobs or promoting clean energy. If nothing else, the Democrats may succeed in exposing the true nature of Keystone, and finally inform an ignorant population that there is no benefit to America in building the pipeline; particularly with gas prices plummeting due to America and the world being flush with cheap oil. Possibly, Democrats can convince Americans that building a pipeline to enrich the Kochs, and make it easier for Canada to ship its oil to Europe, China, and Japan is folly, but one should never underestimate Americans’ stupidity.

    The other ‘crucial’ legislation Republicans will push right away is a measure that would change the new health care law’s definition of full-time workers to deny millions of virtual part-time employees from receiving healthcare insurance. The Koch, ALEC, Heritage Foundation legislation changes the ACA’s definition of full-time employment from the current 30 hours to 40 hours to allow corporations to maintain a workforce with fewer hours and still deny them healthcare coverage. There is no benefit to the American people whatsoever in the so-called “job creating” healthcare legislation, but it does allow the largest corporate businesses like Walmart to deny affordable healthcare insurance for its employees.

    According to Republicans, doing the will of the Koch brothers is very important to, and a high priority of, the American people by passing two so-called phony “jobs bills” that the Democratic Senate blocked. However, both the Keystone approval legislation and denying healthcare to workers are as much job-creation bills as the religious right’s impending personhood legislation to ban birth control once and for all. Both bills are also the opening salvo of a concerted Republican effort to compensate the Koch brothers for buying control of Congress that, according to Republicans, was obviously a very high priority of the American people who were either too lazy to go to the polls in November, or so incredibly stupid that they fell for the same lies Republicans told four years ago.

  24. First of all, Palin, it wasn't PETA that came after you. It was thousands and thousands of people on your facebook page, many of them conservatives and your devoted fans. That stings, doesn't it? You just can't admit that and are trying to bury it. Your brilliant plan is not going to work.

    Many of those thousands of people calling you out for your ignorant, incompetent, bird-witted, irresponsible parenting contacted PETA. That's how PETA became involved. You just can't stand it, can you? You just "can't handle the truth", you chickenshit coward.

    "she wrote that "at least Trig didn't eat the dog." She stood by those comments on Tuesday. "Oh heck no, that was the best line in the post that I wrote,'' she said after Savannah asked if it was a cheap shot.

    You are so damned proud of your mind-boggling stupidity, aren't you? You seriously think sneering at and attacking someone for obeying their parent as a small child is clever? Is witty? Makes some sort of brilliant point? Really? You are proud of saying something that stupid (and vicious)?

    I posted this earlier and I need to say it again.
    I really believe that Sarah Palin had no idea what Gryphen was going to reveal and she was starting to panic about it, so the dog kerfuffle was set up to deflect attention from the revelation.
    I think she might have been assuming the worst about the information being leaked so she chose to create a negative diversion thinking she at least could gain some control.
    It is going to be really entertaining to see what she does to divert attention the next time Gryphen prepares to drop one of these little water balloons.
    She should have saved the dog flap for later in the game. I don't think she expected quite as much negativity as it produced. Imagine the size of the diversions she will have to work out for the next few reveals. By the time the leaks are all published, the antics she will have to pull will be breathtakingly self destructive.

      I'm going to disagree here on the timing. I think Trig used the dog as a step stool, SP saw it and thought what a great metaphor to share so she re-staged the scene, got the camera and had her writers craft accompanying text. I think she saw this as clever and cute and obviously gave not one thought to the welfare of Trig or the dog.

You dare not oppose her or she will find horrible ways to punish you because you are evil and in league with the devil. She will manipulate or trick people into abusing her or insulting her and then she generates all kinds of drama around it.If nobody cooperates by abusing her, she will construct situations where she appears to be the one being abused. Her children are incredibly damaged and most have been through multiple therapies to recover from the sick things this woman does. She thinks by appearing to be a martyr who is mistreated, she will go directly to heaven.

    Your poor 6-year-old child cannot say the word "Up". He can't eat dogs because HE CAN'T EAT A FUCKING CHEERIO! You proudly announce that you are an "oblivious mama" when your child could have been injured if the dog had moved suddenly and he whacked his chin or chipped a tooth on your granite counter. Aside from the treatment of the dog, you never thought to get your son early intervention when you brought him home from some hospital somewhere in Anchorage or Wasilla, depending on which version of the miraculous birth story you are selling, to help him overcome his developmental delays? It didn't occur to you that the child was prescribed glasses for a reason? That he was prescribed hearing aids for a reason? Your son is at least 45 pounds and the dog isn't yet a year old, and weighs approximately the same as him. The little girl in the picture posted by Ellen Degeneres is A) Not her Child, B) about 22 pounds and atop a dog that is 80+ pounds.

    Please just shut the fuck up about PETA and President Obama and the lamestream media. This is not about any of them. This is about how you neglect your children and put on display your failure to teach your son that dogs and trusted family pets are not to be mistreated, and that he shouldn't stand on the fucking dog.

    I will admit I was wrong. (Something Sarah could never do).

    I thought that Jill was a service dog since she came through Puppy Jake and I thought their mission was to get people service dogs. I didn't know that Puppy Jake was in the business to whore themselves out politically to some quitter grifter fourth tier ex-politician for political points. (Which makes me think twice about Puppy Jake's service mission and pleas for funding).

    Anyway, since Jill isn't as old as I thought she was and isn't trained to be a pet, companion or therapy or service dog, that still doesn't excuse the Palins from mistreating Jill.

    Sarah always acts like a constant early teenager who got caught doing something bad yet deflects and points and says, well, they did it too.

    Doesn't she ever grow up and take responsibility. Jesus H. Christ, thankfully she never got to DC to be VP. She lacks competence, maturity, intelligence, empathy, well, I could go on and on.

      Sarah enjoys confrontations? Bwahaha! Sarah enjoys stabbing people in the back and spitting on people below her chain of command. She always kisses up and punches down.

      Don't kid yourselves. Conservatives are the ones trying to bury the Embarrassment, Sarah.

      Liberals are the ones who keep dragging Sarah out in the open and putting her on exhibition. She is their best argument.

      Fox loves them some subliminal messaging.

    Palin's vile insinuation is that because Trig has Down Syndrome, he requires a service dog.
    Service dogs are incredible partners to the physically challenged and the blind. A local supermarket employs older adults with DS and none of them require the aid of a service dog.
    In fact, they are some of the most efficient workers
    in their areas.
    Our extended family has a 12 yr old who has DS.
    From her birth, her young parents mainstreamed her .
    Unlike Trig , who seems confined to his immediate house,
    she went everywhere with her adoring parents.
    She was taken to parks, beaches, restaurants, family trips, zoo, etc. She received enormous stimulation from interacting with her environment and others.
    Unlike Trig, she participated in Special Olympics activities from a very early age. Like Trig, she had visual and hearing problems . but, they were not obstacles in her growth.
    She plays soccer .
    She took ballet and dance lessons and wait for it..piano lessons.
    She can play a number of songs on the piano quite well.
    In the old days, children born with physical and mental challenges were kept hidden away , like Trig.
    The fact that Palin never brings him out in public is telling.
    And sad . Only still photos from the home are released.
    Palin's use of the term " companion " to describe the dog's function in the home ( besides being used as a punching bag by Tripp and a stool by Trig ) is also bizarre .
    It's like he's being raised by the dog like Romulus of Rome.
    Our Lily is an amazing young lady because she was raised by loving and involved parents and family. The family dog and cat were pets , not her nanny and babysitter.
    Trig will never grow to his full potential being raised by Jill Hadassah and the Palins, although the dog may be the only one to show him true affection.
    I'm disappointed that the national DS organizations continue to remain silent in the face of Trig's dysfunctional situation.
    Trig with his high profile DS could have been an inspiration and encouragement to others .
    Conservative columnist George Will has a 40 yr old son with DS. Jon is an avid baseball fan
    and his parents put in the time and effort to mainstream him , just like Lily's. And unlike Trig's.
    Jon often rides the DC subway by himself to watch the Nationals baseball team .
    Trig will never have an enriched life like Jon and Lily , instead he's just a prop and a photo op. How very sad.

      Thank you for your post. I had a DS cousin who was mainstreamed from a young age, though he lived in a rural area (and also died in 1969 at the age of 13 in a bus accident). Yet he could interact with people.

      I'm glad people mainstream their children. Your post offers me hope for many DS children who are mainstreamed and not kept isolated or just at home.

      As far as I'm concerned, Trig is past the point of Sarah being able to 'use him and/or hide behind him as she has all of her other kids. He is no longer a baby or tot and past his cute stage!

      Now, what will she do? It's going to be interesting to watch. We know, she always comes up with something that allows her to play the victim!

      My niece's public elementary school is about 25% disabilities. Even the kids that can't make in a regular classroom for a full day, come in with their aide(s) for brief periods. Having challenged kids around her has been an enormous education for my niece.

      Most of the severely challenged kids at my niece's school have been in therapy from birth. The school district has an active "parents as teachers" program with home visits for all children. So physical/mental problems are detected early and addressed.

      Sarah Palin's Trig lost valuable time as infant/toddler when his development needed major therapy. It staggers me that Sarah Palin is never asked how they managed to do all Trig's therapy on the campaign trail.

      I also wonder about the suitability for a "service" or "companion" dog for Trig who, at this point, does not seem to understand the difference between a real dog and a stuffed animal. It takes intensive work on the part of family members and specialists to help DS children achieve their potentials. Sarah Palin is not doing anything to help Trig; she's admitted her failures herself.

      We know the grandmother of a little girl, slightly younger than Trig. The little girl by the age of two could sit at a restaurant table and feed herself with small bites of food and interact with those around her. She wore her glasses and paid attention to people who were conversing all around her. Not one bit of commotion from her. We haven't seen her recently but are sure that she has continued to progress because the adults in her family care.

    Wow!!! That was absolutely pathological!

    What is wrong with her? Why would someone constantly feel the desire to be victimized? It's like she is begging for someone, anyone to attack her.

    She calls herself names, so that she can then claim that everyone called her a name. They all do this constantly. Todd and Bristol did it during the Throwdown. Bristol does it all over reality teevee.

    Do they do this to keep people from getting too close? A way of telling someone to back off? I just don't get it.

      It all goes back to her father the creepy one using her and her sisters for his sexual pleasures. She demonstrates, ne, practically screams her sexual abuse, so she knows nothing but more abuse (to children and animals) and more being the 'victim'. She has an arrested development from about age 8 or 9 as a result and is mean to the bone with her rage at that early abuse. The Palin/Heath klan are well known for their deviant behavior, ask anyone in the Valley, they know, they just don't talk about it, since incest is rampant in that state.

    How many of us get precious media time to explain our daily imbecilities?

    The average parent of small children is busy 24/7; Palin is a middle-aged "mother" of an active 7-year-old boy with special needs. How in the world does she have time to attend to his multiple health needs, his educational needs, his therapeutic demands, while burnishing her victim credentials?

    Why doesn't Savannah or Hannity ask her how she does it. How does she juggle the demands of mothering a child with disabilities? What IS her secret? Everyone plays along, coddling this imbecile. Any other child would have been removed from the home by now.

    Can we finally get on with exposing the lie behind Trig's birth? I'm fed up with her lies and dissembling.

      But, yet the media refers to her as governor and provides her a platform to endorse folks, etc. And, most of the time, the folks she picks are not elected!

      Nah. I'm going with Todd as father and someone very different as mother. That's based on Gryphen's source's recent comment and the failure of Sarah Palin to take proper care of Trig. He should have been having therapy since shortly after his birth and, by her own admissions, he has not had the therapies that are due him. If he were her own child, I think she would have wanted to do better by him - at least while he's small. So I figure that Todd broke the news to Sarah; she freaked out and then figured that she could make herself into super-woman by bringing a child with a disability into her home, winning credibility with women everywhere (didn't work out so well for Sarah) and with the pro-life movement (worked out better for her). What's interesting to me, and also an indication that she's not Trig's birth mother, is that she has never given more than the briefest lip service to any organization that advocates for disabled children. Look at all the Kennedy women did in promoting the Special Olympics, etc., because of their sister's disabilities.

    I say that we have made substantial progress and here is why: No one asked crazy lady about being President. Not one question about her running.

    And with her speaking engagements and the SarahPac donations down to a trickle, old Sarah still needs money. A grifter has got to grift after all. But no one even asked her thus denying her the opportunity to do that political strip tease about the Republican nomination. She got that question every time she appeared on any media back in 2011.

    Obviously no sane person thinks old Sarah is qualified to be President and they no longer bother asking her about it. And that is progress.
