Ahh, Alaska's very own Independence Day. Has it been six years already?
"We're not retreating, we're advancing in another direction."
Apparently at the time she did not realize that the direction she was advancing was toward her own future irrelevance.
Yeah, that's her, she's looks familiar. 'Can I call you Joe,' "The Undefeated," the winker, 'All of them, Katie,' a Big Gulp in her hands, painful looking high-heels, 'Todd's got the gun, I've got the rack,' a bridge to nowhere, some messed up kids ...whatshername...? John McCain might remember...
Happy Quitter Day Alaska!!! I remember it well, all the c4p'rs were contemplating suicide! Sarah had locked out certain reporters from her screech. It was sudden and you can see she is breathless. What happened to make her quit? There were at least TWO icebergs headed her way. Multiple ethics complaints loomed... Yet when she quit, she got what they call a "global agreement" (is what I heard) and all state and federal charges were dropped, if she never ran again. That's why the sly smile. The Feds know about her and Todd's crimes. There WERE icebergs, and then they went poof when she quit.
Do ya'll remember HOW the FBI opened up on a SAT-Holiday weekend to address the "rumor" that she was under investigation? Remember the "Flea" got some lackey in the FBI to address this "rumor"...and then she threatened Shanyn moore? But no one ever SAID she was being under indictment from the FBI but it was the IRS! (still the FEDS) But VAN FLEA got the FBI to say she was not being investigated...HELLO, Since when does the FBI do such a thing? WHEN? If you call the FBI and ask if you are being investigated and say you are....HELLO! They are not going to tell you! But in AK since the FBI were patrons of Todd's in his prostitution biz they will cover for her ass. At least then. I hope its been cleaned up by now six years later.
@7:05 - If the global agreement is really true, why isn't Palin being sued for fraud (SarahPAC and ShePAC)? A legal agreement never to run would be clear proof.
Anonymous8:10 AM Why would she be sued for fraud? Anyone can have a pac! Steven Colbert showed that. And this agreement would OBVIOUSLY be under the table or in a NDA. She does not have a "superpac" so she can't run.
Having a superPac is not a requirement to run for the presidency of the USA. Not sure where you are from, but the requirements can easily be found online using google. You see, in the USA, those requirements are taught in grade school, so I can understand why you wouldn't know them if you were not from the USA.
She was shrewd in her timing, can't deny her that. The Friday afternoon 'news dump' right before a holiday, when even media is looking forward to time off, and people you never heard of are on the anchor desks. Plus, Michael Jackson's sudden death was still getting ink.
@7:05 Who in the hell was/is Sarah Palin that she could make TWO icebergs go away, with all state and federal charges dropped if she never ran for public office? Who had the authority to make these deals? Who knows if this is even true? Did the deal include pretending to run to scam folks out of their money?
I still say the American public deserves to know the TRUTH. Sarah Palin has been the herpes of American politics for the last 6 years, she was allowed to continue and spread her platform of hatred, lies, divisiveness and lack of respect for the office of the president.
Other governors have been forced to resign and the public knows why, again, who in the hell is Sarah Palin that after 6 years the truth is still hidden.
Do the AK taxpayers even know if they are paying her a pension, was that part of the deal?
Anonymous11:02 AM I'm sorry but supperPacs did not come into being until 2010 IN THE US. What exactly is your point? She isn't running, she can't. PERIOD. I know y'all at the pond are having conniption fits but keep it there.
Oh yes what a day it was. I still remember the trembling shaking scared sarah standing there like a lame duck caught in the headlights. A head on with the cling on. Yep. congrads Alaska. But your work is not done yet. Keep going. The Finale'
@11:02 Thanks for your insult worded as information. That happens a lot on IM, as any regular reader knows.
I was wondering about soliciting under false pretenses. When an individual commits the crime of false pretenses, they misrepresent a fact in order to acquire someone else’s property, such as money. Obtaining property through false pretenses is a crime, punishable in most states by fines and imprisonment. While state laws vary in defining this crime, the general idea is the same: to be found guilty of false pretenses, the prosecutor must show that the individual acquired the property at issue by intentionally misstating a fact. If Palin had an agreement with the Feds, didn't she then intentionally misstate the possible run, knowing full well there would never be one? People donated with the expectation she would.
If I were in Alaska, I would round up a few thousand friends, marching bands, the VFW's, and candy throwing firemen to stage the most vibrant Independence Parade evah! Le must for the parade route? Lake Lucille. A load of lipstick pigs and lots of rainbow signs.
It's pretty obvious to me. The Alaskan constitution is very clear that the governor cannot profit from being in office while in office. Palin wanted to grab that 12 million book deal and other grifting opportunities, she hated being governor because it was actual work that she couldn't avoid all the time, and she was in the hot seat with all the ethics complaints, so she asked herself, what's in it for me?
And the answer was nothing. There was nothing she wanted anymore from the governorship, only a bunch of headaches. She wanted the moolah and celebrity instead of a political career, which she was not capable of anyhow.
Didn't she profit when she wore the Artic Cat logos to the commercial sports dills that Todd would cheat to win? She must have profited endless ways as a gov with a shadow gov.
Todd makes no bones about it, it is all what is in it for them.
@9:53 - yes, she profited from wearing the Arctic Cat logos, and that, in part, is why there was an ethics complaint about her wearing that jacket while performing an official governor act of starting the race. To me, that was the one ethics violation where she was truly caught red handed and the violation was very straightforward, yet they let her skate.
Absolutely, she drifted her way through her half term, but never anything like signing a major book contract. I think her legal team told her she couldn't get away with that level of flouting the law, and, as I said above, the choice was easy. SP is going to choose money every time.
She was deliriously happy thinking of the piles of riches awaiting her, the b.s. she had just spewed, the scrappy job that she just quit, and most of all, how she had just spoiled the holiday for the hated media crews and their families ... and that explains the cat who just ate the canary grin as she exited after her quitter speech. She was getting everything she wanted, or so she thought.
That sure didn't last. Poor, pathetic Sarah Palin. Too dumb to even realize how dumb she is. Too mean and nasty for anyone to stand. Too short sighted to ever get anything worth having. Her money may not all be completely gone, but it will be soon. Then she won't have a damn thing except a lot of bitter regrets.
And if you want an extra good laugh, Google 'Vanity Fair edits Sarah Palin's resignation speech'. It's good! Whomever paid for Sarah's college should demand a refund!
She has claimed in the past that she paid her own way through college. As being one who paid his own way through college, there is no way she paid for it herself. I was paid about double the minimum wage where I worked part-time, and I was married to someone who could afford our living expenses by herself. It took me 8 years to get through a state college for a BSc. degree, so I know she couldn’t have done it by attending 5 colleges in 6 years, and by paying her own living expenses. Palin is a pathological liar that has been proven many times over, with a complete book documenting her lies that was released in 2010. Since that time there has been enough lies for a Volume II and a Volume III to have been written.
If you watched Sarah Palin’s resignation speech, you know one thing: her high-priced speechwriters moved back to the Beltway long ago. Just how poorly constructed was the governor’s holiday-weekend address? We asked V.F.’s red-pencil-wielding executive literary editor, Wayne Lawson, together with representatives from the research and copy departments, to whip it into publishable shape. Here is the colorful result.
She got a loan from the state of Alaska, just like everybody else. There are no academic or financial requirements and back then 50% was forgiven ( you didn't have to pay it back) as long as you lived in Alaska for five years after graduating.
The very fact you have to defend her personal hygiene defeats your own specious, stupid, sad argument.
And WTF with Target? Who cares what a defeated, quitter, blood libel, failed, has been, F list celebu-twit does?
$arah is washed up, and you know it.
If she doesn't run, which we all know she won't, then the worst fears of the Mary Glazier prayer group have come true: Queen Esther is a defeated quitter/loser.
$arah has been, and always will be about money, fame, and glamour.
She proved her true character by lying to Tawd just to drive to Fairbanks to smell Ivana Trump out of desperation.
Hoohahh Blood Libel Palin Brawl Baptism by waterboard Rack joke If $arah was in charge Trig scam Dog Gate Dairy Gate Trooper Gate Quitter Gate House Gate Pimp Gate
No way Sarah shops at Target. She'd be much better dressed if she did. She's got an unmistakable Wal-Mart/Fredrick's of Hollywood/aging hooker look going that doesn't come from anyplace as wholesome as Target.
Healthy, groomed, appropriately dressed, and even more coherent than anything she's said in years.
The deterioration is amazing. She's a mess. Makes me wonder how much longer we're going to have her to kick around. She's got to be close to bottoming out.
This has nothing to do with this post, but life in general. I read this today while enjoying my coffee and found it perfect.
"A life lived properly should scare the living shit out of you."
It brought back floods of memories from my 20s, 30s, and the first few years of my 40s. Life is supposed to be emotionally chaotic with stability at the wheel. That's the only way to know you're learning something.
"I thought – that’s what’s wrong – many just accept that lame duck status, hit the road, draw the paycheck, and 'milk it'." ------------------------- I thought that was such a stupid way of looking at a term drawing to a close. Just because she would handle it that way, she assumes everyone is as lazy and venal as she is.
Many people take advantage of "lame duck" status by doing all they can before leaving office, for good or ill. No worries about focus groups, re-elections, pandering to special interest groups and so on. Just vote their conscience as they see fit. Propose legislation that can be carried to the end by others.
So many, especially all those expert pundits, assumed that President Obama was going to sit back and wait out his last two years in office, and not try to get anything done after the republicans took the Senate.
I guess a lazy worthless piece of shit like Palin would do that, but the President has a conscience and a work ethic. And boy, is he making things happen. He's not a "lame duck", he's in his "last quarter."
Hows that for a sports analogy, Palin, you flabby-assed scrawny weakling?
Happy Anniversary, toots! - - - I believe that should be: "Happy Anniversary, Half-Term, Turn Tail and Run, Yellow Streak Down the Back, Shirker, Wimpy, Scaredy-Cat, Whey-faced Quitter."
I'd have a big smile on my face if Sarah announces today! The only people happier will be the late night comedians who could look forward to months of jokes that write themselves. I'd especially love to see how a black grandchild would impact Sarah's chances. Perhaps Bristle will name the baby "October Surprise."
Just dropping in for a quick laugh and alert folks to the fight that has broken out in the DayRoom(Open Thread) at Crazies4Palin today!
Chairs are being thrown by some fool named barracuda and another idiot named "udall" about some nonsense! Got my giggle on EARLY y'all! Time for you to get yours too!
Oh yeah...Happy Baldy Quitty Day! Peace out my homies! LOL!!
If she wasn't so delusional and bothered to noticed how badly she polled in the CPAC straw poll this year--she won't waste her time announcing a run. She'd be doing herself and the country a favor if she crawled back into oblivion.
6:41 AM Would that be like the birthday cake that the Palins slam their kids' faces into? If Sarah Palin 'announces' a Presidential campaign today, it will be non-committal and in the form of PLEASE DONATE while she thinks about running. WTF is a hater? Are you still in Middle School? Did you miss your ride on the short bus?
long time time no see Gina..... now if we could hear from Beldar we could really rock this fine Quitter's Day! remember folks....what ever you are doing today quit it... drlager
Sorry to be late to the party but had to work. :( Hey Gina M.! How's life treating you? Certainly glad to see you, thought something nefarious happened. How's your grandkid? Love your posts; and glad you stopped by.
anon 6:41 How long will you wait? It has been a long time already.....how much will you donate to help her make her picks on presidential candidates?? Because that will be the only choice you have. lol You obviously don't know sarah....she will not announce.....grifters don't announce...they string along their marks.
So cute and endearing....the Palinbots being sincere and faithful waiting for Sarah to appear and run for president.....just like Linus waiting for the great pumpkin.....
If she doesn't announce, its because they weren't sincere enough
What a wonderful time for The Quitter and how exciting an idea for the $10 bill. She has been so busy progressing Alaska, it is a wonder she has time to think of money.
'The new $10 bill will feature a woman, but what woman will be selected?' https://gs1.wpc.edgecastcdn.net/806593/image2/a166895aaa/3884ts3okbro.png
I know she will be all Red, White and Blue with a favorite holiday like the Fourth coming right after such a thrilling contest on such a day filled with memories.
It doesn't stop there, Willow's birthday! I can't wait to see the cake Sarah bakes, being it is her 21st birthday. There will be so much celebration. I hear in Dillingham this year.
Sarah has been a little quiet, she must be rested up and eager to be out front now that all these explosive things are on the horizon.
I can't wait to hear/read about what she has to say about it all and the fireworks!!!! WOOT! WOOT!
Happy 21st birthday, Willow Palin!! Hope your mom doesn't forget about you as I'm sure all her free time is being consumed by the knocked up one and how to get some guy to take her off her hands.
Happy anniversary IMs . I really hope the teaser comments will have some validation. Im off today... At the beach.. Living MY life Alicia, with my successful husband and smart compassionate teenagers.... And I will be checking this blog every hour . Then Ill be participating in the schadenfreude. Life is Good!
I like the excuse someone gave on mediaite-she was sooo efficient that she completed a four year agenda in 2 1/2 years! I tried to explain that she wasn't "hired" to finish a honey do list, but the poster would not give up.
That is because she was wearing an outfit selected by the pros hired by the GOP. That was the only time in her life she looked professional. Lately, most of her clothes look like they came from Fredrick's of Hollywood or Goodwill. She has a horrible sense of style.
Hey now! I buy almost all of my clothes at thrift stores (although not Goodwill because of their legal-but-unethical pay practices), and I get compliments all the time. I've had fashion students ask me where I find my clothes. It has nothing to do with where you shop and everything to do with your taste. If you handed Sarah $5,000 and sent her into Nieman Marcus on her own, she would still walk out looking like a low-class hooker.
Well, here it is, July 3rd! Isn 't this the day that SarahPAC announces the winner of its latest contest? Who will win the contest to name the first woman to grace the twenty dollar bill? I've been waiting for this day for six weeks now!! I don't remember what the winner gets, anybody out there recall?
Sarah Palin quit on Alaska Willow quit high school Bristol quit on Tri-G Bristol quit on her wedding Track quit on Britta Track quit on his daughter Track quit on his family Todd quit on his girlfriend /prostitute Shailey Tripp Todd quit several times at Iron Dog Bristol quit her job at Dr. Cusack Sarah Palin quit her 2012 presidential bid Sarah Palin quit her exercise book Sarah Palin quit her cookbook Sarah Palin quit promoting her Medal of Honor Recipient
What blew her argument that being a lame duck governor would not be good for Alaska is that she didn’t have to announce she was quitting until the end of her term. She obviously lie about her reason for quitting and I would like to know the real reason. I also don’t buy her argument it was because of the ethical complaints that were filed against her. I believe many of those complaints were legitimate ones that she caused and could have prevented herself. If it wasn’t for the complaints being reviewed by a committee of her friends she appointed on the committee, and she could fire at will, I’m sure many of the complaints would have been against her. It also wasn’t because of the cost to her personally because she could have sued those who filed the complaints, but if she did she would also have to give a deposition under oath which could have been even more damaging to her. She also could have demanded that the State of Alaska to pay for the legal cost since the complaints were the result of her employment as governor. As it was, the Alaskan Congress agreed shortly after she left they would cover the legal cost of any dismissed ethical complaints filed against a governor.
For whatever reason she quit her office, for money, forced to quit by Congressional leaders to prevent something from becoming public knowledge, or whatever the true reason, I would certainly like to know as I’m sure others would as well.
I thought the Alaska Legislature found her to be unethical which is a huge deal!
** I think she was about to be impeached but it wasn't announced yet. There was just SO much going on. I would think the people of AK would want to know EXACTLY why she quit on them!
If there is one thing we know about Sarah Palin, it is she will have HUGE celebrations. Last year the family went to Coeur d'Alene.
So take THAT haters! http://theimmoralminority.blogspot.com/2014/07/sarah-palins-4th-of-july-was-so-much.html

Meanwhile, the mouthbreathers at the peepond are hoping and praying that she will announce today. I would feel bad for them and not criticize them because I respect old people, but they're so hateful it's hard to feel any sympathy.
I've always thought Palin's demise can't come soon enough.
She's done nothing for our country and the State of Alaska except spread racism, fear, hate and anger. Don't think the woman has a pleasant or loving bone in her body!
She's been a complete waste of energy and time as sad as that is to say. A waste of a human being!
So this Obama fella in the White House doesn't seem to have gotten Palin's quitter message on why it's bad to be a lame duck in office. He just keeps on kickin' rethug's lame asses and taking names.
Thanks, Obama.
I mean, really....Thank you Mr. President! Please proceed....
ot 'How much would you pay to stop an abortion?' http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3148059/How-pay-stop-abortion-Pregnant-woman-challenges-pro-lifers-pay-1-million-72-hours-baby.html
Bristol can put her money where her mouth is or the French writer can do a screed on the nerve of some mothers over charging the pro-life community.
Has it been six years? Man time flies. Here is what I think having heard this speech with a little time and distance under our belts. One, you are SO nervous giving this speech. It's clear now that you wanted to cash in and thought that you would still be relevant in the next couple of election cycles. You probably had a lot of people telling you that your "rogue" nature would propel you to victory one day as the first woman president. I think you believed them and they probably thought that it could be done. But what you really couldn't seem to do was to get out of your own way. No, your ego and your need for adoration drove you to make some very bad decisions and those choices have proven to be fatal. You're a reactionary person and didn't listen to wiser people when you made some of those bad choices.
Well, that's all in the past now isn't it. Your kids are a mess, your career is in shambles and what do you have to show for it? The internet illustrates that your life is littered with the carnage of your own creation. Those things cannot be undone.
Hindsight is 20/20 and let's be honest and reflect on what could have been; You could have stayed in office, repaired your broken relationships with people in your administration and in your state. You could have cultivated good relationships and put in place really qualified people to administer to all of your state, just as you promised when you became the governor and your approvals reflected that promise. It would have required hard work, mea culpas, and discipline both at work and at home. You could have finished off your first term and possibly have won a second and could have been a real contender in 2016.
I could have respected you. But you let me and lots of other people down. You're like the people who get rich winning the lottery but lacked any self control that they find themselves destitute within a couple of years.
Sorry it turned out this way. If I were you, I would take a good personal inventory and be brutally honest with yourself. Get a good therapist and try to recover your life. You may even find a rebirth in that experience; old wounds and patterns no longer driving you and may have a chance to leave behind a legacy you can be proud of. But stop pandering already; its not authentic at all. Come to terms with the shit in your closet and make a new life, one you can be really proud of. You might even be able to help those kids of yours in turn as you can be a good example to them. Good luck with all of it.
All she had to do was become a genuine, informed, passionate voice for children with disabilities. She could have quit the governorship to do that and would have built such admiration that she could have returned to politics easily. But it's Sarah Palin. She's a fucked up, ignorant fraud who doesn't care about anyone but herself.
The truth is that Sarah Palin couldn't have done any of those things. If she could, she would not be Sarah Palin.
She simply is not capable of conducting her life in a mature, capable manner. She is what she is ... a vile, shallow, greedy, hateful, cruel, dishonest, hypocritical piece of trash.
...I've written on a number of occasions when it appears the full moon has brought out the crazies to try and grasp why there is so much utterly mad obsession about Sarah Palin.
Yes, I get it, in a country with hundreds of millions of people even if 1% are absolutely mad, there will be the obsessed, the crazed, the frustrated, the jealous, the bored, and the juvenile who will get some sort of supposed pleasure out of it.
They Tweet, Facebook, Blog (at sites for the mad like "Immoral Minority/PoliticalGates/CrooksandLiars for example) and even writing, for the older non-computer literate, scrawl "letters to the editor" about her.
...Leaving aside the Blogs like 'Immoral Minority' which seem to make a living out of running hate articles for their mad readers, and the disgusting hate site 'Wonkette' which just goes for page clicks to try and boost their editor's apparently measly income, the constant drumbeat of Palin denigration on Twitter is obviously coordinated.
this is the fucking tard from NZ who thinks that with a extra coat of polish on his chrome dome , palin will show him her pancakes TBo loves ya .... drlager
Anonymous8:15 AM That's the Panty sniffer MJS, I thought his wifey made him quit blogging about palin? If anyone is a hater its him! He also takes all emails/IP that go to his site so don't go there!!! He is a flippin idiot of the highest order.
OK. Today is July 3rd and someone who keeps posting that some great secret will be revealed today (all fall down is what they say or head tilt and all that other crap).
I say put up or shut up.
I am tired of all the "I've got a secret" and "We know Putin and heir and trust fund", blah, blah, blah.
If we don't see the big secret revealed today as promised, I think that person should go post somewhere else until it's time to actually tell us what it's about.
And Gryphen, you keep talking about big secrets and icebergs, but I don't see much here that we can't get online elsewhere (except the comments!). What's with that?
I say either put up or shut up. Tell us what's going on or be quiet about how there is something going on. And that goes for everyone.
Sign me...reading for 7 years and getting pretty disgusted with all the "I know something big but can't tell you" crap.
For the commenter at 8:35am. - thank you, thank you, thank you! I could not have said it any better. And there is something weird about celebrating the anniversary of a politician's resignation. To think my husband calls me strange cause I remember our dog's birthday...lol
What's wrong with celebrating the day when she could never run for office again? After all the shit she's caused, and her stupid family, go read somewhere else! I suggest the pee pond for fighting.
If you do not like what is posted on this page I suggest you. A. STFU. B. Quit reading what is posted. And C. Start your own blog and post only things you deem appropriate.
There are meetings happening right now in the Geneva courts...why do you think John Kerry has been so silent...Operation All Fall Down is under way...smirk...got your popcorn? Lol...
Sam8:50 AM I saw that yesterday and her assholishness knows no bounds. YOU would THINK she would address the issues in HER state like the out of control wildfires for example, from the lack of snow for how many years now? Or the earthquakes, even tho she left the state when she was gov and Mt Rodoubt was about to blow with a Shell tank almost at its base, she left the state to go to DC the Afalfa dinner. :P But she knows there are too many haters in Alaska no one listens to the quittah! No one listens to her anywhere except at the pond.
Is Mrs. "I'm a commercial fisherman" Palin still fundamentally ignorant of fisheries biology......to say that only dead fish go with the flow? Smolt and all that.
I was wondering if they could be redacted for names and addresses. How specific would you need to be? Can't you just eliminate names and say items of interest or revelations regarding current events. I am not so good at words, but you get the idea.
Instead of the write, r say something like a well known celebrity starlet from the past.
And Bristle is having her annual child to celebrate her Moms quitting! And it must be a very special anniversary at that since the latest pregnancy is a public one.
Maybe the hocky stick raffle is being delayed since {{{SURPRISE!!!!!!}}}} The "hockey stick" is rilly Bristlies new basta baby, soon to be named Hockey Stick Van Palin.
FYI the middle name van stands for where Hockey Stick was conceived or so Bristlie thinks, unless it was that one blackout drinking binge then it was in a regular car.
It must be tough to be 24 and to be pregnant every other year for the last seven years by different boyfriends. Where are all the missing Bristol children?
In an effort to say something positive I will reiterate she looked healthy then and professional.
Fast forward to the obvious strange wigs (rogue wigs?) she wore on Fox News and it is mind boggling her decisions and choices were increasingly bizarre contributing to create a downward spiral and losing jobs.
A visit to the pond highlights: Palin will announce, FBI is staging attacks, IM people are mentally ill, Obama thinks he is a king, they are pro Confederate flag, Mexicans are all criminals and rapists, Jeb just lost all of the South
Meanwhile, over at the Pee Pond, everyone is expecting a "big announcement" either today or tomorrow. What a bunch of fucking idiots. So delusional, they still think she'll make a run for POTUS in 2016. The only big announcement she may make is that she too is pregnant....it was that three-way she and Barstool had in Vegas with Dakota.
Palin doesn't have the numbers nor the financial backing to run for POTUS and you can be sure she isn't going to use her own money - however much of it is left!?
lame duck? So should all Governors' terms be reduced to 2 years? Poor countries elect charlatans due to the ignorance of the electorate. The republican party base is ignorant as well to have chosen someone like her as leader and the trend on the National level seems not to change considering the line up we see for 2016.She is a Fraud at best.
Seriously, has anyone else ever seen anyone's appearance deteriorate as quickly and as badly as Sarah's has over these past six years? Other than cancer patients or someone with full blown HIV I've never seen anyone go downhill that fast.
I've been saying for the last four or five years that she looks like someone right off of the "Faces of Meth" billboards. If it were anyone else I'd pity them, but not her. In her case the outside now matches the inside.
For as flippant and bombastic as Sarah has been over the years she really did care what others thought of HOW she looked because as we have seen that was the only way she felt she had any power or control over other people, usually men. We've all heard the "going to put on my push-up bra" and go to the meeting so I can get what I want when she was talking about her time as a small-time mayor/town manager. So to Sarah it was all about her beauty. Can't be fat so she goes on the Red Bull starvation diet. She should have stopped when she hit 105 or 110 but she kept going. She lost her hair, lost her curves, and lost her muscle. She went for the all plastic look and now she just looks like a man wearing a badly coiffed wig. You are so right, Barbara, her outside now matches her inside.
NORTH AMERICAN an official (especially the president) in the final period of office, after the election of a successor. "as a lame duck, the president had nothing to lose by approving the deal" an ineffectual or unsuccessful person or thing.
Maybe July 3 is a joke, 12:33 - maybe not. Doesn't matter because it's already had an impact. Sarah reads here. So does Bristol and Willow. And what is left of the PAC people. Then, there are the random and demented obsessive Palin stalkers. All have been nervously and incessantly paTROLLing all the Palin Truth blogs trying to glean a kernel of what might be coming down the pike (this time.)
You see, the teasers are a win-win because sooner or later someone WILL reveal more of the MANY dark, BURNING secrets the Palins have attempted to hide, WATER DOWN and literally BURY over the years. And in a very fitting way, the anticipation - nay - the FEAR - of what is to leak gives even the most hardened socio-pathetic creature the sphincter contractions and more she so richly deserves.
For next fathers day Bristle will be putting a CraigsList ad out to find Trapp's Daddy or any willing sucker to step forward to be shit on by the Palins for the next 18.
No, it's supposedly Wallow's Bday, but like all the Palins, dates and years seem to be "fluid". Wallow's Bday moved to suit Sarah, Bristol became a year older overnight when she was knocked up with Tripp.
Since we're on the subject regarding Sarah Palin deteriorating in the past six years, Sarah Palin was unrecognizable when she stepped out of her yoga studio without her makeup on. Sarah looked horrible and she knew it. No wonder Todd was hanging out in Anchorage banging Shailey Tripp.
And gave the paparazzi the finger in the parking lot, video no comment. For $arah "never met a camera I didn't like" Palin, very telling, no comment to the question asked, SUV door slammed, then REstaged it in her driveway. hahahahahahha
One cannot seriously make this shit up. But SHE did! What's wrong, hun? The world is your oyster!
Yeah, that's her, she's looks familiar. 'Can I call you Joe,' "The Undefeated," the winker, 'All of them, Katie,' a Big Gulp in her hands, painful looking high-heels, 'Todd's got the gun, I've got the rack,' a bridge to nowhere, some messed up kids ...whatshername...? John McCain might remember...
ReplyDeleteHappy Quitter Day Alaska!!! I remember it well, all the c4p'rs were contemplating suicide! Sarah had locked out certain reporters from her screech. It was sudden and you can see she is breathless.
DeleteWhat happened to make her quit?
There were at least TWO icebergs headed her way.
Multiple ethics complaints loomed...
Yet when she quit, she got what they call a "global agreement" (is what I heard) and all state and federal charges were dropped, if she never ran again.
That's why the sly smile. The Feds know about her and Todd's crimes. There WERE icebergs, and then they went poof when she quit.
Do ya'll remember HOW the FBI opened up on a SAT-Holiday weekend to address the "rumor" that she was under investigation? Remember the "Flea" got some lackey in the FBI to address this "rumor"...and then she threatened Shanyn moore? But no one ever SAID she was being under indictment from the FBI but it was the IRS! (still the FEDS) But VAN FLEA got the FBI to say she was not being investigated...HELLO, Since when does the FBI do such a thing? WHEN?
DeleteIf you call the FBI and ask if you are being investigated and say you are....HELLO! They are not going to tell you! But in AK since the FBI were patrons of Todd's in his prostitution biz they will cover for her ass.
At least then. I hope its been cleaned up by now six years later.
Thanks, 7:05 AM! What the rock 'em sock'em, in fightin' brawlin' pee pond will never get.
Delete@7:05 -
DeleteIf the global agreement is really true, why isn't Palin being sued for fraud (SarahPAC and ShePAC)?
A legal agreement never to run would be clear proof.
Anonymous8:10 AM
DeleteWhy would she be sued for fraud? Anyone can have a pac! Steven Colbert showed that.
And this agreement would OBVIOUSLY be under the table or in a NDA.
She does not have a "superpac" so she can't run.
8:09 AM
DeleteYes, that was a July 4 week end.
@8:30 From 2008 to 2012 Palin clearly pretended she was gong to run and solicited donations.
DeleteBait and switch?
@8:30 am
DeleteHaving a superPac is not a requirement to run for the presidency of the USA. Not sure where you are from, but the requirements can easily be found online using google. You see, in the USA, those requirements are taught in grade school, so I can understand why you wouldn't know them if you were not from the USA.
My comment at 10:13 AM should have read
Delete"2009 to 2012".
Sorry about that.
She was shrewd in her timing, can't deny her that. The Friday afternoon 'news dump' right before a holiday, when even media is looking forward to time off, and people you never heard of are on the anchor desks. Plus, Michael Jackson's sudden death was still getting ink.
Delete@7:05
DeleteWho in the hell was/is Sarah Palin that she could make TWO icebergs go away, with all state and federal charges dropped if she never ran for public office? Who had the authority to make these deals? Who knows if this is even true? Did the deal include pretending to run to scam folks out of their money?
I still say the American public deserves to know the TRUTH. Sarah Palin has been the herpes of American politics for the last 6 years, she was allowed to continue and spread her platform of hatred, lies, divisiveness and lack of respect for the office of the president.
Other governors have been forced to resign and the public knows why, again, who in the hell is Sarah Palin that after 6 years the truth is still hidden.
Do the AK taxpayers even know if they are paying her a pension, was that part of the deal?
Anonymous11:02 AM
DeleteI'm sorry but supperPacs did not come into being until 2010 IN THE US.
What exactly is your point? She isn't running, she can't. PERIOD.
I know y'all at the pond are having conniption fits but keep it there.
Oh yes what a day it was. I still remember the trembling shaking scared sarah standing there like a lame duck caught in the headlights. A head on with the cling on. Yep. congrads Alaska. But your work is not done yet. Keep going. The Finale'
DeleteShe quit a half hour after Shawn's psych eval came back. Craig is filing a report.
Delete@11:02
DeleteThanks for your insult worded as information. That happens a lot on IM, as any regular reader knows.
I was wondering about soliciting under false pretenses. When an individual commits the crime of false pretenses, they misrepresent a fact in order to acquire someone else’s property, such as money. Obtaining property through false pretenses is a crime, punishable in most states by fines and imprisonment. While state laws vary in defining this crime, the general idea is the same: to be found guilty of false pretenses, the prosecutor must show that the individual acquired the property at issue by intentionally misstating a fact.
If Palin had an agreement with the Feds, didn't she then intentionally misstate the possible run, knowing full well there would never be one? People donated with the expectation she would.
Happy Granny Grifter Quitty Pants Day to you all!
ReplyDeleteToday would be a perfect day to release those vile emails from Bar$tool, Gryphen!
Delete@8:48, Yes it would be a perfect day. Come on, Gryphen, PLEASE!
DeleteLooking forward to the comments to follow.
ReplyDeleteI hear that Dakota Meyer and Sarah Palin have part two planned for one of their shared projects.
Deletehttp://i.ytimg.com/vi/1bffr1ST2aU/0.jpg
If I were in Alaska, I would round up a few thousand friends, marching bands, the VFW's, and candy throwing firemen to stage the most vibrant Independence Parade evah!
ReplyDeleteLe must for the parade route? Lake Lucille.
A load of lipstick pigs and lots of rainbow signs.
Six years and the public still doesn't know the truth behind her resignation.
ReplyDeleteWill we ever know? I am not satisfied without knowing the truth.
DeleteAmen. Why has nobody talked in six years ?
DeleteIt's pretty obvious to me. The Alaskan constitution is very clear that the governor cannot profit from being in office while in office. Palin wanted to grab that 12 million book deal and other grifting opportunities, she hated being governor because it was actual work that she couldn't avoid all the time, and she was in the hot seat with all the ethics complaints, so she asked herself, what's in it for me?
DeleteAnd the answer was nothing. There was nothing she wanted anymore from the governorship, only a bunch of headaches. She wanted the moolah and celebrity instead of a political career, which she was not capable of anyhow.
Didn't she profit when she wore the Artic Cat logos to the commercial sports dills that Todd would cheat to win? She must have profited endless ways as a gov with a shadow gov.
DeleteTodd makes no bones about it, it is all what is in it for them.
@9:53 - yes, she profited from wearing the Arctic Cat logos, and that, in part, is why there was an ethics complaint about her wearing that jacket while performing an official governor act of starting the race. To me, that was the one ethics violation where she was truly caught red handed and the violation was very straightforward, yet they let her skate.
DeleteAbsolutely, she drifted her way through her half term, but never anything like signing a major book contract. I think her legal team told her she couldn't get away with that level of flouting the law, and, as I said above, the choice was easy. SP is going to choose money every time.
She was deliriously happy thinking of the piles of riches awaiting her, the b.s. she had just spewed, the scrappy job that she just quit, and most of all, how she had just spoiled the holiday for the hated media crews and their families ... and that explains the cat who just ate the canary grin as she exited after her quitter speech. She was getting everything she wanted, or so she thought.
That sure didn't last. Poor, pathetic Sarah Palin. Too dumb to even realize how dumb she is. Too mean and nasty for anyone to stand. Too short sighted to ever get anything worth having. Her money may not all be completely gone, but it will be soon. Then she won't have a damn thing except a lot of bitter regrets.
And if you want an extra good laugh, Google 'Vanity Fair edits Sarah Palin's resignation speech'. It's good! Whomever paid for Sarah's college should demand a refund!
ReplyDeleteShe has claimed in the past that she paid her own way through college. As being one who paid his own way through college, there is no way she paid for it herself. I was paid about double the minimum wage where I worked part-time, and I was married to someone who could afford our living expenses by herself. It took me 8 years to get through a state college for a BSc. degree, so I know she couldn’t have done it by attending 5 colleges in 6 years, and by paying her own living expenses. Palin is a pathological liar that has been proven many times over, with a complete book documenting her lies that was released in 2010. Since that time there has been enough lies for a Volume II and a Volume III to have been written.
DeleteIf you watched Sarah Palin’s resignation speech, you know one thing: her high-priced speechwriters moved back to the Beltway long ago. Just how poorly constructed was the governor’s holiday-weekend address? We asked V.F.’s red-pencil-wielding executive literary editor, Wayne Lawson, together with representatives from the research and copy departments, to whip it into publishable shape. Here is the colorful result.
Deletehttp://www.vanityfair.com/news/2009/07/palin-speech-edit-200907
She said she "worked" her was through college. Wink, wink. That is why now, no professors can "remember" her. Totally different than paid her way.
DeleteThanks for the link. It's marked up by a professional editor and its so red! It matches her dress. Too funny.
DeleteShe got a loan from the state of Alaska, just like everybody else. There are no academic or financial requirements and back then 50% was forgiven ( you didn't have to pay it back) as long as you lived in Alaska for five years after graduating.
DeleteThat was the last time she appeared in public looking CLEAN and well groomed. It has been all downhill since then.
ReplyDeleteShe looks groomed every time I see her at the rink up here. And she usually doesn't look bad in Target.
Delete6:35 AM You had better fill your eyeglasses prescription while you are at Target. You must be seeing double images, Troll.
Delete@6:35 am. For doG's sake, 6:35, get off it.
DeleteThe very fact you have to defend her personal hygiene defeats your own specious, stupid, sad argument.
And WTF with Target? Who cares what a defeated, quitter, blood libel, failed, has been, F list celebu-twit does?
$arah is washed up, and you know it.
If she doesn't run, which we all know she won't, then the worst fears of the Mary Glazier prayer group have come true: Queen Esther is a defeated quitter/loser.
$arah has been, and always will be about money, fame, and glamour.
She proved her true character by lying to Tawd just to drive to Fairbanks to smell Ivana Trump out of desperation.

No way Sarah shops at Target. She'd be much better dressed if she did. She's got an unmistakable Wal-Mart/Fredrick's of Hollywood/aging hooker look going that doesn't come from anyplace as wholesome as Target.
Delete"We're not retreating, we're advancing in another direction."
ReplyDeleteHow true. No more detours, straight to hell on earth.
Gaaa, I couldn't even make it past 15 seconds of that crap. But I agree with anon 6:26-- she looked healthy then.
ReplyDeleteHealthy, groomed, appropriately dressed, and even more coherent than anything she's said in years.
DeleteThe deterioration is amazing. She's a mess. Makes me wonder how much longer we're going to have her to kick around. She's got to be close to bottoming out.
Well she was still in the clothes she stole from the RNC and did not donate.
DeleteThis has nothing to do with this post, but life in general. I read this today while enjoying my coffee and found it perfect.
ReplyDelete"A life lived properly should scare the living shit out of you."
It brought back floods of memories from my 20s, 30s, and the first few years of my 40s. Life is supposed to be emotionally chaotic with stability at the wheel. That's the only way to know you're learning something.
I like that.
DeleteA lot.
Thanks!
"And then I thought – that’s what’s wrong – many just accept that lame duck status, hit the road, draw the paycheck, and 'milk it'."

"I choose NOT to tear down and waste precious time; but to build UP this state and our country."
Gabby Giffords and blood libel, death panels, shuck and jive, and more....it's all on video, boopsie, division and derision is the name of YOUR game.
The "quitter's way out" IS to quit and you proved it. You ARE a dead fish....and smell like one.
Happy Anniversary, toots!
"I thought – that’s what’s wrong – many just accept that lame duck status, hit the road, draw the paycheck, and 'milk it'."
Delete-------------------------
I thought that was such a stupid way of looking at a term drawing to a close. Just because she would handle it that way, she assumes everyone is as lazy and venal as she is.
Many people take advantage of "lame duck" status by doing all they can before leaving office, for good or ill. No worries about focus groups, re-elections, pandering to special interest groups and so on. Just vote their conscience as they see fit. Propose legislation that can be carried to the end by others.
So many, especially all those expert pundits, assumed that President Obama was going to sit back and wait out his last two years in office, and not try to get anything done after the republicans took the Senate.
I guess a lazy worthless piece of shit like Palin would do that, but the President has a conscience and a work ethic. And boy, is he making things happen. He's not a "lame duck", he's in his "last quarter."
Hows that for a sports analogy, Palin, you flabby-assed scrawny weakling?
How very appropriate to mention President Obama on this fine, fine Quitter's Day! Thanks, Nefer!
DeleteAnd, of course, she was in her first term so she wasn't in "lame duck status." She just couldn't wait to start grifting.
DeleteHappy Independence Day, Alaskans!
Happy Anniversary, toots!

I believe that should be: "Happy Anniversary, Half-Term, Turn Tail and Run, Yellow Streak Down the Back, Shirker, Wimpy, Scaredy-Cat, Whey-faced Quitter."
There! That's her full title.
"I don't need a title,"
DeleteYes, dear, yes you do.
That'll work, PalinsHpax!
Exactly what I was going to say AKinPA. She wasn't a lame duck. She was only halfway through her first term, so she could have run again.
DeleteI wish there were something here that I could click that says "love". great comments.

I'd have a big smile on my face if Sarah announces today! The only people happier will be the late night comedians who could look forward to months of jokes that write themselves.

If she wasn't so delusional and bothered to noticed how badly she polled in the CPAC straw poll this year--she won't waste her time announcing a run. She'd be doing herself and the country a favor if she crawled back into oblivion.
DeleteWell, 6:41 AM, as the adage goes, "you can wish in one hand......."
Delete6:41 AM Would that be like the birthday cake that the Palins slam their kids' faces into?

DeleteSo cute and endearing....the Palinbots being sincere and faithful waiting for Sarah to appear and run for president.....just like Linus waiting for the great pumpkin.....
DeleteIf she doesn't announce, its because they weren't sincere enough
HAPPY QUITTER'S DAY ALASKA!
ReplyDeleteIt takes my breath away.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful time for The Quitter and how exciting an idea for the $10 bill. She has been so busy progressing Alaska, it is a wonder she has time to think of money.

I know she will be all Red, White and Blue with a favorite holiday like the Fourth coming right after such a thrilling contest on such a day filled with memories.
It doesn't stop there, Willow's birthday! I can't wait to see the cake Sarah bakes, being it is her 21st birthday. There will be so much celebration. I hear in Dillingham this year.
Sarah has been a little quiet, she must be rested up and eager to be out front now that all these explosive things are on the horizon.
I can't wait to hear/read about what she has to say about it all and the fireworks!!!! WOOT! WOOT!
"it is a wonder she has time to think of money."

Yea, like Sarah Palin has any influence on who goes on our American money. Especially a woman!
DeleteSarah Palin is an embarrassment to women throughout our nation!
And, if she's pimping to be the one chosen - FORGET IT!!! It'll never happen!
But..but..but she doesn't need a title to have influence.
DeleteHappy 21st birthday, Willow Palin!! Hope your mom doesn't forget about you as I'm sure all her free time is being consumed by the knocked up one and how to get some guy to take her off her hands.
DeleteHappy anniversary IMs .

Then Ill be participating in the schadenfreude.
Life is Good!
Happy Quitters Day everyone!
ReplyDeleteOh that's one my favorite pastimes. Tell a Palin supporter that she doesn't deserve to be elected president because she quit as governor
ReplyDeleteThe way they try to spin it into "$arah selflessly did it for the benefit of Alaska" never fails to make me laugh hysterically
I like the excuse someone gave on mediaite-she was sooo efficient that she completed a four year agenda in 2 1/2 years! I tried to explain that she wasn't "hired" to finish a honey do list, but the poster would not give up.
DeleteThat is because she was wearing an outfit selected by the pros hired by the GOP. That was the only time in her life she looked professional. Lately, most of her clothes look like they came from Fredrick's of Hollywood or Goodwill. She has a horrible sense of style.
ReplyDeleteFredrick's of Hollywood, bought at Goodwill.
DeleteHey now! I buy almost all of my clothes at thrift stores (although not Goodwill because of their legal-but-unethical pay practices), and I get compliments all the time. I've had fashion students ask me where I find my clothes. It has nothing to do with where you shop and everything to do with your taste. If you handed Sarah $5,000 and sent her into Nieman Marcus on her own, she would still walk out looking like a low-class hooker.
DeleteYou are absolutely right, 10:08. My apologies for the Goodwill crack. For years, I dressed solely from thrift shops, usually St. Vinnie's.
DeleteWell, here it is, July 3rd! Isn 't this the day that SarahPAC announces the winner of its latest contest? Who will win the contest to name the first woman to grace the twenty dollar bill? I've been waiting for this day for six weeks now!! I don't remember what the winner gets, anybody out there recall?
ReplyDeleteLots of political spam in their email? Tons of requests for donations to Sarahpac?
DeleteA night with Bristles??

DeleteWhat blew her argument that being a lame duck governor would not be good for Alaska is that she didn’t have to announce she was quitting until the end of her term. She obviously lie about her reason for quitting and I would like to know the real reason. I also don’t buy her argument it was because of the ethical complaints that were filed against her. I believe many of those complaints were legitimate ones that she caused and could have prevented herself. If it wasn’t for the complaints being reviewed by a committee of her friends she appointed on the committee, and she could fire at will, I’m sure many of the complaints would have been against her. It also wasn’t because of the cost to her personally because she could have sued those who filed the complaints, but if she did she would also have to give a deposition under oath which could have been even more damaging to her. She also could have demanded that the State of Alaska to pay for the legal cost since the complaints were the result of her employment as governor. As it was, the Alaskan Congress agreed shortly after she left they would cover the legal cost of any dismissed ethical complaints filed against a governor.
ReplyDeleteFor whatever reason she quit her office, for money, forced to quit by Congressional leaders to prevent something from becoming public knowledge, or whatever the true reason, I would certainly like to know as I’m sure others would as well.
Boy, wouldn't we like to know. Methinks it was way worse than "silly ethics violations," as she termed it. Big enough to pull Tawd off the slope!
DeleteAnd big enough she was hyperventilating through her entire screech.
Delete7:56 It was pull Todd off from fishing.
DeleteThe North Slope job was just a job and anyone could have covered from him. And he could just take leave from work.
To pull out of fishing Bristol Bay means he would have missed the whole short season and lost a year's worth of fishing money. Big difference.
So yeah, you got the right idea. Big enough to pull Todd home is a big deal.
Thanks, 8:20 AM, for the correction and, yes, it was a big deal. Baby got put in the corner by those more powerful than her!
DeleteTodd Palin was not working on the Slope when she gave that speech. He was fishing in Dillingham and she called him prior to giving her speech.
DeleteIf I remember correctly he came running quickly and was not aware she was going to resign. That seemed to be the take in Alaska at the time.
I thought the Alaska Legislature found her to be unethical which is a huge deal!
DeleteShe resigned, running scared!
Again, thanks for your corrections, all!
DeleteAnonymous9:55 AM
DeleteI thought the Alaska Legislature found her to be unethical which is a huge deal!

I think she was about to be impeached but it wasn't announced yet. There was just SO much going on.
I would think the people of AK would want to know EXACTLY why she quit on them!
If there is one thing we know about Sarah Palin, it is she will have HUGE celebrations. Last year the family went to Coeur d'Alene.

DeleteThe Palins must be so pissed President Obama is having the high ratings he is today - over 50% in some of the polls and his constant successes.
DeleteHe is the finest example of a 'leader' we have in this country. He, VP Biden and his Administration are doing an excellent job.
One that John McCain could never have attained - especially with the likes of Sarah Palin in 'second' position!
Americans were so, so smart in electing President Obama and VP Biden BOTH times. Love them both!
Shove it up your poop shoot, $arah, you were given every opportunity in the world and you QUIT.
DeleteCarnival barkers come a dime a dozen.
Pretty funny she wore one of the suits given to her during the 2008 VP run. It signaled her full-rogue act.
ReplyDelete7:53 AM
DeleteLOL the suit from the belly of the plane, the clothes that were given back...lol! Like the RED LEATHER....
She is such a S$$HOLE.

Bristol can put her money where her mouth is or the French writer can do a screed on the nerve of some mothers over charging the pro-life community.
Dear Sarah,
ReplyDeleteHas it been six years? Man time flies. Here is what I think having heard this speech with a little time and distance under our belts. One, you are SO nervous giving this speech. It's clear now that you wanted to cash in and thought that you would still be relevant in the next couple of election cycles. You probably had a lot of people telling you that your "rogue" nature would propel you to victory one day as the first woman president. I think you believed them and they probably thought that it could be done. But what you really couldn't seem to do was to get out of your own way. No, your ego and your need for adoration drove you to make some very bad decisions and those choices have proven to be fatal. You're a reactionary person and didn't listen to wiser people when you made some of those bad choices.
Well, that's all in the past now isn't it. Your kids are a mess, your career is in shambles and what do you have to show for it? The internet illustrates that your life is littered with the carnage of your own creation. Those things cannot be undone.
Hindsight is 20/20 and let's be honest and reflect on what could have been; You could have stayed in office, repaired your broken relationships with people in your administration and in your state. You could have cultivated good relationships and put in place really qualified people to administer to all of your state, just as you promised when you became the governor and your approvals reflected that promise. It would have required hard work, mea culpas, and discipline both at work and at home. You could have finished off your first term and possibly have won a second and could have been a real contender in 2016.
I could have respected you. But you let me and lots of other people down. You're like the people who get rich winning the lottery but lacked any self control that they find themselves destitute within a couple of years.
Sorry it turned out this way. If I were you, I would take a good personal inventory and be brutally honest with yourself. Get a good therapist and try to recover your life. You may even find a rebirth in that experience; old wounds and patterns no longer driving you and may have a chance to leave behind a legacy you can be proud of. But stop pandering already; its not authentic at all. Come to terms with the shit in your closet and make a new life, one you can be really proud of. You might even be able to help those kids of yours in turn as you can be a good example to them. Good luck with all of it.
Amen
DeleteAll she had to do was become a genuine, informed, passionate voice for children with disabilities. She could have quit the governorship to do that and would have built such admiration that she could have returned to politics easily. But it's Sarah Palin. She's a fucked up, ignorant fraud who doesn't care about anyone but herself.
DeleteExactly, 9:46 PM, but she has no use for Trig whatsoever and he knows it.
DeleteSlap! Slap! Slap!
She really could have endeared herself to the country in many ways, he was nothing but a pawn.
The truth is that Sarah Palin couldn't have done any of those things. If she could, she would not be Sarah Palin.
DeleteShe simply is not capable of conducting her life in a mature, capable manner. She is what she is ... a vile, shallow, greedy, hateful, cruel, dishonest, hypocritical piece of trash.
11:18 my sentiments exactly.
DeleteI love this version of her speech!

THANK YOU!
DeleteMe too, regina!
Deleterumproast.com had some great content back in the day.
Me too. It is perfect. Think she will remember?
DeleteHey, Regina! Nice to see you!
DeleteI never can find this on YT....thanks!
...I've written on a number of occasions when it appears the full moon has brought out the crazies to try and grasp why there is so much utterly mad obsession about Sarah Palin.
ReplyDeleteYes, I get it, in a country with hundreds of millions of people even if 1% are absolutely mad, there will be the obsessed, the crazed, the frustrated, the jealous, the bored, and the juvenile who will get some sort of supposed pleasure out of it.
They Tweet, Facebook, Blog (at sites for the mad like "Immoral Minority/PoliticalGates/CrooksandLiars for example) and even writing, for the older non-computer literate, scrawl "letters to the editor" about her.
...Leaving aside the Blogs like 'Immoral Minority' which seem to make a living out of running hate articles for their mad readers, and the disgusting hate site 'Wonkette' which just goes for page clicks to try and boost their editor's apparently measly income, the constant drumbeat of Palin denigration on Twitter is obviously coordinated.

DeleteThat's the Panty sniffer MJS, I thought his wifey made him quit blogging about palin?
If anyone is a hater its him! He also takes all emails/IP that go to his site so don't go there!!!
He is a flippin idiot of the highest order.
OK. Today is July 3rd and someone who keeps posting that some great secret will be revealed today (all fall down is what they say or head tilt and all that other crap).
ReplyDeleteI say put up or shut up.
I am tired of all the "I've got a secret" and "We know Putin and heir and trust fund", blah, blah, blah.
If we don't see the big secret revealed today as promised, I think that person should go post somewhere else until it's time to actually tell us what it's about.
And Gryphen, you keep talking about big secrets and icebergs, but I don't see much here that we can't get online elsewhere (except the comments!). What's with that?
I say either put up or shut up. Tell us what's going on or be quiet about how there is something going on. And that goes for everyone.
Sign me...reading for 7 years and getting pretty disgusted with all the "I know something big but can't tell you" crap.
Jesus Christ step away from the goddamn computer and go for a fucking long walk!
DeleteWhoa, only one person who speaks, and apparently writes, like that. Yeah, I am with 8:45 AM, go take a long walk.
DeleteFor the commenter at 8:35am. - thank you, thank you, thank you! I could not have said it any better. And there is something weird about celebrating the anniversary of a politician's resignation. To think my husband calls me strange cause I remember our dog's birthday...lol
Delete9:10 AM
DeleteWhat's wrong with celebrating the day when she could never run for office again? After all the shit she's caused, and her stupid family, go read somewhere else! I suggest the pee pond for fighting.
If you do not like what is posted on this page I suggest you. A. STFU. B. Quit reading what is posted. And C. Start your own blog and post only things you deem appropriate.
Delete@8:35 Please tell us who is forcing you to read this blog.
DeleteNo one is forcing you to come to this blog at all. As others have said, go on your merry way ( and tell your nurse you need your meds adjusted).
DeleteThere are meetings happening right now in the Geneva courts...why do you think John Kerry has been so silent...Operation All Fall Down is under way...smirk...got your popcorn? Lol...

She is consistant, I'll give her that, consistantly stupid.
Tnx Sam.
DeleteSam8:50 AM
DeleteI saw that yesterday and her assholishness knows no bounds. YOU would THINK she would address the issues in HER state like the out of control wildfires for example, from the lack of snow for how many years now? Or the earthquakes, even tho she left the state when she was gov and Mt Rodoubt was about to blow with a Shell tank almost at its base, she left the state to go to DC the Afalfa dinner.
:P
But she knows there are too many haters in Alaska no one listens to the quittah!
No one listens to her anywhere except at the pond.
Is Mrs. "I'm a commercial fisherman" Palin still fundamentally ignorant of fisheries biology......to say that only dead fish go with the flow? Smolt and all that.
ReplyDeleteToday would be a good day to post Barstool's hate emails. Maybe there is even one or two in there from $carry?
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if they could be redacted for names and addresses. How specific would you need to be? Can't you just eliminate names and say items of interest or revelations regarding current events. I am not so good at words, but you get the idea.
DeleteInstead of the write, r say something like a well known celebrity starlet from the past.
Hell no, 9:44 AM! The names would be part of the fun in seeing those emails displayed!
DeleteAnd Bristle is having her annual child to celebrate her Moms quitting! And it must be a very special anniversary at that since the latest pregnancy is a public one.
ReplyDeleteThey have something more to celebrate this exciting week end.
DeleteWhat a thrill to announce the winner of the ten dollar bill contest!
Pffft.
DeleteWho won the hockey stick?
Crickets.
Maybe the hocky stick raffle is being delayed since {{{SURPRISE!!!!!!}}}}
DeleteThe "hockey stick" is rilly Bristlies new basta baby, soon to be named Hockey Stick Van Palin.
FYI the middle name van stands for where Hockey Stick was conceived or so Bristlie thinks, unless it was that one blackout drinking binge then it was in a regular car.
It must be tough to be 24 and to be pregnant every other year for the last seven years by different boyfriends. Where are all the missing Bristol children?
DeleteWatch them all vote "other," and she replies ala Sally Field, "you love me, you rilly, rilly love me!"
DeleteIn an effort to say something positive I will reiterate she looked healthy then and professional.
ReplyDeleteFast forward to the obvious strange wigs (rogue wigs?) she wore on Fox News and it is mind boggling her decisions and choices were increasingly bizarre contributing to create a downward spiral and losing jobs.
That was my first thought as well. She's hardly recognizable between then and now.
DeleteA visit to the pond highlights: Palin will announce, FBI is staging attacks, IM people are mentally ill, Obama thinks he is a king, they are pro Confederate flag, Mexicans are all criminals and rapists, Jeb just lost all of the South
ReplyDeleteDonald Trump's base. Are they staging mass defections yet? Or does he just not give them the same kind of boners as Granny Hoohah?
DeleteIt's so easy to control the narrative over there.
DeleteThey're infighting like banshees because they know down deep that she is not running and, even if she did, she would lose.
DeleteMeanwhile, over at the Pee Pond, everyone is expecting a "big announcement" either today or tomorrow. What a bunch of fucking idiots. So delusional, they still think she'll make a run for POTUS in 2016. The only big announcement she may make is that she too is pregnant....it was that three-way she and Barstool had in Vegas with Dakota.
ReplyDeleteLol! It's funny because it might be true.
DeletePalin doesn't have the numbers nor the financial backing to run for POTUS and you can be sure she isn't going to use her own money - however much of it is left!?
DeleteNo, 10:41. One word: two-bull! More like an STD for the head grifter.
Deletelame duck? So should all Governors' terms be reduced to 2 years? Poor countries elect charlatans due to the ignorance of the electorate. The republican party base is ignorant as well to have chosen someone like her as leader and the trend on the National level seems not to change considering the line up we see for 2016.She is a Fraud at best.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, has anyone else ever seen anyone's appearance deteriorate as quickly and as badly as Sarah's has over these past six years? Other than cancer patients or someone with full blown HIV I've never seen anyone go downhill that fast.
ReplyDeleteI've been saying for the last four or five years that she looks like someone right off of the "Faces of Meth" billboards. If it were anyone else I'd pity them, but not her. In her case the outside now matches the inside.
Yep, she's been nothing but one nasty, evil broad! Alaskans truly wish they'd never heard of the idiot!
DeleteShe's been nothing but an embarrassment to Alaska, Alaskans and the country!
Me, over the stress of my husband's ills.
DeleteWhich is why I call her out EVERY DAMN TIME.
Don't preach me your crap, Esther.
And I always will.
For as flippant and bombastic as Sarah has been over the years she really did care what others thought of HOW she looked because as we have seen that was the only way she felt she had any power or control over other people, usually men. We've all heard the "going to put on my push-up bra" and go to the meeting so I can get what I want when she was talking about her time as a small-time mayor/town manager. So to Sarah it was all about her beauty. Can't be fat so she goes on the Red Bull starvation diet. She should have stopped when she hit 105 or 110 but she kept going. She lost her hair, lost her curves, and lost her muscle. She went for the all plastic look and now she just looks like a man wearing a badly coiffed wig. You are so right, Barbara, her outside now matches her inside.
Deletelike that ....outside matches the inside.
DeleteYep, that's what happens to meth addicts. If Sarah didn't have money for false teeth she'd be toothless in every pic.
DeleteNORTH AMERICAN
ReplyDeletean official (especially the president) in the final period of office, after the election of a successor.
"as a lame duck, the president had nothing to lose by approving the deal"
an ineffectual or unsuccessful person or thing.
Sit on it and twirl.
Delete10:57 AM Do you mean that ineffectual and unsuccessful 1/2 term Quitter Governor in name only? Sarah and the lame duck dynasty?
DeleteSarah/Bristol/Nancy will wake up for this:
ReplyDeleteMalia Obama Spotted on Brooklyn Set of Lena Dunham’s Girls
http://www.mediaite.com/online/malia-obama-spotted-on-brooklyn-set-of-lena-dunhams-girls/
Yep, that darned 17 yr old child working instead of following the GOP Palins example of being knocked up.
DeleteRemember when she looked professional and pulled together?
ReplyDeleteThat took an entire team of minions that she shat upon.
So I am thinking the whole "wait until July 3" meme was a joke. If I had to guess I would say from Willow. Oh well.
ReplyDeleteMaybe July 3 is a joke, 12:33 - maybe not. Doesn't matter because it's already had an impact. Sarah reads here. So does Bristol and Willow. And what is left of the PAC people. Then, there are the random and demented obsessive Palin stalkers. All have been nervously and incessantly paTROLLing all the Palin Truth blogs trying to glean a kernel of what might be coming down the pike (this time.)
DeleteYou see, the teasers are a win-win because sooner or later someone WILL reveal more of the MANY dark, BURNING secrets the Palins have attempted to hide, WATER DOWN and literally BURY over the years. And in a very fitting way, the anticipation - nay - the FEAR - of what is to leak gives even the most hardened socio-pathetic creature the sphincter contractions and more she so richly deserves.
There was a comment about celebrating Quitter's Day. I'm wondering what Bristol is going to do for Father's Day?
ReplyDeleteTripp will be celebrating with his father Levi.
Trapp, who will he spend his time with?
For next fathers day Bristle will be putting a CraigsList ad out to find Trapp's Daddy or any willing sucker to step forward to be shit on by the Palins for the next 18.
DeleteOh I thought the new name was Trikk. Trapp works though.
DeleteIsn't this Bristol's birthday???? Is there nothing posted on mama grizzly's shouty page about it???
ReplyDeleteNo, it's supposedly Wallow's Bday, but like all the Palins, dates and years seem to be "fluid". Wallow's Bday moved to suit Sarah, Bristol became a year older overnight when she was knocked up with Tripp.
DeleteBristol is Oct 18. I think Willow is July 4 or 5.
DeleteSince we're on the subject regarding Sarah Palin deteriorating in the past six years, Sarah Palin was unrecognizable when she stepped out of her yoga studio without her makeup on. Sarah looked horrible and she knew it. No wonder Todd was hanging out in Anchorage banging Shailey Tripp.
ReplyDeleteAnd gave the paparazzi the finger in the parking lot, video no comment. For $arah "never met a camera I didn't like" Palin, very telling, no comment to the question asked, SUV door slammed, then REstaged it in her driveway. hahahahahahha
DeleteOne cannot seriously make this shit up. But SHE did! What's wrong, hun? The world is your oyster!
lol, I remember that. She ran inside and some make-up on & then posted the "revised" picture for her wing nuts. She's so childish.
DeleteSeriously! Who does this shit but a nutcase?
DeleteFirst of all, she was NOT doing any damn yoga. She had a facial.
DeleteSO $arah, typically in form, is not announcing squat today
ReplyDeleteAll the Pbots, droids, and religious fanatics are now saying July 10th for the "big day"
Dream on bots, ain't happening.
WTH??
ReplyDeleteDay almost over on east Coast.
Has she wiggled out of another tight spot?
Where is the reason for her resigbation 6 years ago??
Poor old Sarah, forgotten but not gone.
