Spring has sprung in Alaska, and with this beautiful season comes the news today that the Palins have a new neighbor! Welcome, Joe McGinniss!
Yes, that Joe McGinniss. Here he is – about 15 feet away on the neighbor’s rented deck overlooking my children’s play area and my kitchen window. Maybe we’ll welcome him with a homemade blueberry pie tomorrow so he’ll know how friendly Alaskans are. (Joe! Do not, I repeat, do NOT eat pie from the Palins!)
Joe announced to Todd that he’s moved in right next door to us. He’s rented the place for the next five months or so. He moved up all the way from Massachusetts to live right next to us – while he writes a book about me. Knowing of his many other scathing pieces of “journalism” (including the bizarre anti-Palin administration oil development pieces that resulted in my Department of Natural Resources announcing that his work is the most twisted energy-related yellow journalism they’d ever encountered), we’re sure to have a doozey to look forward to with this treasure he’s penning. Wonder what kind of material he’ll gather while overlooking Piper’s bedroom, my little garden, and the family’s swimming hole? (Wow! Have you EVER seen so much venom dripping off of a Facebook post?)
Welcome, Joe! It’ll be a great summer – come borrow a cup of sugar if ever you need some sweetener. (Once again Joe, remember NO PALIN FOOD!) And you know what they say about “fences make for good neighbors”? Well, we’ll get started on that tall fence tomorrow, and I’ll try to keep Trig’s squeals down to a quiet giggle so we don’t disturb your peaceful summer. Enjoy!
- Sarah Palin
You know that may be one of the nastiest things I have ever read! You can almost feel her rage bursting off of the page! Kind of reminds me of this picture.
Yeah that's the one! I think THAT is the Sarah Palin that Joe will see glaring back at him from the Palin's backyard.
By the way, according to my sources, that picture on Sarah's Facebook page was taken by Track while Joe was standing on the deck of his rented house. You can almost hear Sarah screaming "Somebody get me a picture of that interloper now!"
You know, for some reason I have me a hankering to drive on out to the "Silla" and have a cup of coffee with Joe McGinnis. I will have to check my schedule today and see if I have some free time.
Hey maybe I can even lend Joe my old sign?
P.S. For what it is worth I also believe that Sarah herself wrote that Facebook post, as well as the one about Nikki Haley. There is just too much of the Sarah Palin "mean girl" in there for it to have been completely written by somebody else.
Read it for yourself and tell me if you agree.
So, by her own words, I take it Palin finds the "squeals" of a two-year old offensive and annoying, since she assumes other people would.
ReplyDeleteIt's a toss up which she's worse at, being a political leader or a mother. Too bad you can't resign from the mother thingy.
Joe should have a cook out in backyard. Invite all AK bloggers to come celebrate.
ReplyDeleteSarah undoubtedly wrote this facebook post about Joe McGinnis. The reference to young Piper's bedroom window is a clear indicator of Sarah's pathology.
ReplyDeleteIt might take all summer, but SOMEHOW Sarah will figure out a way to make Sarah's neighbor problem all President Obama's fault.
what is with the constant sexual connotation and her children? McGinniss is peeping on her young daughter? she is a sick woman. everyone puts a 2 1/2 year old kid into a kiddy backpack to mow lawns. real safe
ReplyDeleteGod, what an idiot. I never get tired of saying that about this insipid woman.
ReplyDeleteAnd since when does Taco Bell make blueberry pies for Sarah the Retard to pass off as her own?
Yes, she did. And she was deadly calm when she wrote the welcome to Joe Mc; hysterically laughing informed the world Nikki was in trouble.
ReplyDeleteNow tell us about the house the illegal neighbor moved in, Is it haunted? did secret service stayed there in 08'?;
Are the owners on the run?.... should they be?
Be hospitable to Joe.
She's so fucking immature. I love how she tries to sound so eloquent and sunny in her writing (just like those God awful passages from her goofy 'book,') but she just comes across sounding like a hokey wannabe smartass 13-year-old. If I were the U of Idaho, I'd be telling her to tone down the rhetoric about her being a graduate of the school, especially the part where she claims a journalism degree.
ReplyDeleteThe stalker innuendo coupled with the horrid sentence construction seals $arah's hand to this one.
ReplyDeleteOh, and her neighbors just rent their deck? Blargh.
"Why does everyone hate my kids?"
ReplyDeleteso are your sources staked out on the lake 24/7? how do you know track took the picture? thats weird and creepy, unless a palin kid is a source
ReplyDeletePlease. please. who ever owns this house, do not sell it to the Palin's. Keep it rented,preferably to news people. what a burr under Dear Lil'Sarah's saddle.
ReplyDeleteThe first time I read it I thought Joe had come to live next door to you - Gryphen - although it seemed a little odd (not JOe living next to Gryphen, that would be cool - but some fo the statements seemed a little odd if that is what was happening. Did Gryphen also live so close to SP that he could see Piper's bedroom window? share the lake?
ReplyDeleteThen I realized it was "from" Sarah and reread it and decided this was something that belonged in The Onion - she wouldn't really have written those things. Just another time someone channeled SP. But that didn't seem to fit with the rest of the post so I had to do a google search to verify that SP actually wrote that piece.
HOly Moly. I agree - she wrote it. It's very unprofessional. And I suppose Facebook isn't a professional gathering place - but she hopes to be a professional again someday.
I have a hard time believing she's serious about a 2012 run at President. She doesn't act Presidential. She doesn't even act like a professional. She doesn't seem to even know what are proper boundaries.
Sarah invited folks to visit Alaska ...
ReplyDeleteI don't know why she is upset that Joe took up her invite.
Sarah... have a great weekend.
You have to admit one thing that's a benefit about Palin's Facebook rant today:
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin just told the whole world Joe McGinniss is her next door neighbor, and it's plain from her scathing comments about what she considers "yellow journalism" and needing now to build a fence that she resents him.
So if ANYTHING, even a fall or a car accident, befalls Joe McGinniss in the next 5 months, the authorities -- maybe even the Feds, as in FBI -- will know who first to investigate.
Then they'll come after her C4P sycophants.
YyyyyyesssssSSSSSS!!! This is outstanding news.
ReplyDeleteJoe McGinnis wrote the best and most honest book about Alaska ever, bar none. Rather than delivering a postcard picture of the 49th state, he called it as he saw it. And he was spot on.
I have a hunch: He is going to eviscerate this epic fail of a family with nothing but a knife of truth. It is going to be fantastic.
One question: How much must her neighbors loathe her to rent out their house to Joe?
I am grinning ear to ear.
I can hear it now "Piper, no school today. Ya gotta stay home and bake a pie".
ReplyDeleteYou are so right, that is the "rill" Scarah shining through. It must take an awful lot of energy to fuel that rage. She should take her own advice and expend some of that energy in her garden.
BTW, what was that thinly veiled disgusting remark about Joe peering into Piper's bedroom? What a total sicko.
She will soon know what it feels like to be 'field dressed' and cooked into stew. Best news all day.
ReplyDeleteWell, you know it is a free country. I mean Sarah you are the one always reminding us about those freedoms that those in uniform are always fighting for ... for us, and for Joe. You go Joe! (Just make sure you have a bodyguard). And Gryphen, go over and have some coffee on the deck with Joe. Wave at Sarah for me!
ReplyDeleteThis is the best news I could get today! So funny imagining her stomping around with steam coming out her ears!!!
ReplyDeleteReally, just so funny.
I am sure Joe brought his kevlar. He is experienced with psychopaths.
Didn't she buy the properties next to her primary property for privacy? She could have just built a fence the first time.
ReplyDeleteWhat is Joe writing about? Is it going to duplicate Andrew Dunn? I doubt it, but how is it going to be different? Anyone know?
Questions:
1. How long until the fence goes up? I guess one day.
2. How long until the fence is finished? again, one day.
3. How long until Gryphen, Jeanne, Shannon, Linda, Anne Kilkenny, etc meet Joe?
4. How long until Joe invites everyone over for a barbecue?
5. How many days will SP be in her house this summer? the rest of the family?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Someone needs to draw pictures of the Crazy Woman on all her home-spun adventures.
ReplyDeleteI have mowed lawns with toddlers strapped to my back when my husband was on the slope, but I didn't have $$$ to pay anyone to do my yard work and we had covenants.
I doubt he was turned on by her cottage cheese thighs. Why does she always have to insert sexual innuendo in to her diatribes? Sheesh, this is one unhinged person
ReplyDeletetodd spotted him when he was on the roof! and lawn mowers injure 68,000 kids a year.
ReplyDeleteWhat the? Any psychiatrists out there who could interpret this? She is sounding more mad every day. The woman doesn't recognize that she is the one who put herself in this position, the day she accepted the nomination and keeps herself in the news almost every day. Doesn't recognize that by mentioning her kids in many facebook posts, speeches, family magazine write-ups, photos that her complaints about autonomy just don't get the desired effect anymore.
ReplyDeleteThey should have bought that house next door and alleviate any privacy problem. Doesn't make sense. Who wants to bet the Palins will contrive some nuisance activity every night next door so Joe can't sleep. Maybe a running audio of her screechy voice over a loudspeaker.
Oh LOL, this is actually hilarious! Seems like Sarah's going to have a tough time this summer. I love her neighbors who rented the house.
ReplyDeleteOH LOL
Great job Joe, way to piss her off! LOL! Hope you have a HUGE party with loads of MSNBC friends & the Obamas!
ReplyDeleteOnce again, mommy pervert is insinuating he'll be peeking in Pipers window...
and mowing w/ a baby in a backpack? Dumb enough to do it? Yeah, she is. Think she actually does anything that gets her hands dirtier (than writing on them)? Not.
I have a feeling that house will conveniently burn down soon, ending any more snooping renters for quite some time.
ReplyDeleteI should not be surprised by what $P says or does any longer, but.... I have to admit when I first saw this post, I really thought it was a joke. No "Presidential Candidate" would make a post like this. I had to venture onto her FB page. OMG It's true. Even worse are the comments being posted. She doesn't scare me, I think she's quite the fool. What scares me are her followers. Think she used her ghostwriter for this??
ReplyDeleteWhat Joe McGinniss is doing is just creepy. Obviously not illegal in any way, but definitely an invasion of the Palin's space. Not cool at all.
ReplyDeleteI see that you only post approved comments. I hope that you don't define "troll" as anyone who expresses an opinion differing from yours. From the approved comments above it seems that you could use some diversity.
ReplyDeleteOH, this is so hilarious! I'm still chuckling. She definitely wrote it, although she had RAM clean it up a bit before it was posted. Sarah should have used some of her millions to buy out all of her neighbors. This is what we've needed, someone on the ground who can literally see what's really going on with that family.
ReplyDeleteAnd, off topic here, but I think I know why Levi isn't talking about Trig. If the Palins have never officially adopted him--which they probably haven't, since it would require going through the legal system--then they have no doubt threatened to come after him with a massive chid support bill if the truth ever comes out. Levi and his family have a vested interest in keeping Sarah's secret.
Wow...... just wow.
ReplyDeleteHey, to be fair, I would be upset if an anti-me person moved in next door to me.
ReplyDeleteBut her FB post, NASTY. And she wonders why people could possibly take issue with her. She invites it.
Whatever Sarah ever says should boomerang back to her. That is a rule of thumb. Whatever she is shelling onto others, be it a person, an action or a platform - the same goes for her, two-fold.
So for her to question the "treasure he’s penning" is as appicable to her when she was penning that self-serving, idealized version of her life in Going Rogue, is utterly rich.
For her to allude to Joe being a dirty old man overlooking Piper’s bedroom (there you go again Sarah, using your children as a shield) and the family’s swimming hole is pure Sarah strategy. Her motive to writing about this is evident, she wants people to harass Joe McGinniss, she wants people to make his life as miserable as she is going to be as a neighbor. Lord knows why he wants to be so close to evil, but it is interesting.
I love the fact that per Sarah's style, she assumes people will know what the hell she is writing about? She's only gotten his a Google-worthy stats up by this antic.
Good luck Joe! Your going to need it.
Gryphen,
ReplyDeleteIs this the house that Sarah was renting at one point? I seem to recall you telling us earlier that the Palins were renting a smaller house next door to the new one they were building.
I wonder if the owners knew what they were doing when they rented it to Mr. McGinniss. Or is it possible that Sarah sublet the house herself, without realizing who he was? That would be the ultimate irony.
All I can say is
ReplyDeleteHahahahahahaha!!!
And take care, Joe!
On second read.... There was a whole lot of innuendo in that FB rant. Looking in Piper's bedroom window?? Spying on Sarah while she lounges pool side?? WTF?
ReplyDeleteI'm glad this woman thinks it's so presidential to post these bizarre rants on FB. If she was just an every day average American, and I read what she wrote about a new neighbor, I'd still think it was fucking weird. She's nuts.
The pee pee's are already calling Joe a pervert stalker and they're also pissed at the owner of the rental. Wouldn't the person who took the picture and posted it on facebook also be a stalker and also invading Joe's privacy?? And isn't that called capitalism renting out a house and making money writing a book? After reading what those nucking futs are saying in the Pee house I sure hope Joe has security set up.
ReplyDeletePS- Sarahpaycheck, put some blinds or curtains in Piper's room, you should have already done that since neighbors that could look in.
Ok,she's losing it. This is the second blog post in two days that I thought was a joke. The first was the weird unprofessional, overly aggressive defense of that lady running for governor. Who's writing her facebook posts???? This reads like a bad novel. What's with the suggestive imagery--her in a tank top with Trig on her back?? She is so manipulative, trying to rile up her followers to go after this guy.
ReplyDeleteI understand how horrible it would be for a perceived enemy to move next door--it would suck--but just build a wall and stay classy. This is ridiculous. She's cracking up. Also, it makes me sick how she's trying to pretend that they are a small town country family. No way that witch is mowing the lawn or doing yard work. Please. Where's RAM? Has everyone finally left her now? Who helped her write this crap? She needs an intervention, but there's no one left to do it. Great thing is, if she keeps using her facebook post to vent, she's going to go too far like she always does. I'd love nothing more than a summer of Sarah Palin scandals....
Anon 7:18- The pee pee's think that ghost writer Vincent lady wrote the post...
ReplyDeleteIn case anyone needs a refresher, Joe was one of the three bidders on Ebay for that famous dinner with Sarah. He even bragged about being a bidder (to upset her, no doubt).
ReplyDeleteSome of the PeePee People are suggesting violence against Joe, including arson. Since they may be readers here, I would like to offer a suggestion. One act of attempted violence or arson will reopen a big can of worms. There are a few people who may have had a connection to Sarah who met an unexplained death. Arson will only confirm the worst rumors.
Oh yeah, and who after reading that NY article thought Todd was going over just to "introduce himself"?
ReplyDeleteSarah said, "I looked up in surprise to see a “new neighbor” overlooking my property just a stone’s throw away."
ReplyDeleteWell after reading that statement, I guess we can only hope the neighbor has the arm and accuracy of Nolan Ryan!
Joe McGinnis wrote a Fatal Vision partly with the help of the pyschopath himself. Joe McGinnis knows how to exploit a pyschopath's buttons.
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin's handlers blundered here. Even if Joe is ousted from his perch, he's triggered warnings in what Sarah calls her brain. That will hasten the day of the ...
TRAIN WRECK.
makes you wonder what the property owners think of her renting it out to Joe LOL
ReplyDeleteWhy isn't Track or Todd mowing the lawn? Sarah has to come home from the road, working hard speechifying and lying, and mow the lawn?
ReplyDeleteSo Joe McGinniss' rented home over looks $carah's kids play area: Really? Based on the photographs posted the only view of Paylin's yard is the side yard that appears to be covered with asphalt. Is this where Piper plays? Or is this where the older kids slip out for a smoke? Or is this where the rented Trigs hide from the neighbors?
ReplyDeleteGet your mind out of the gutter, $carah! Contrary to your greatest desires not every man on the face of the earth is after YOU!
ReplyDeleteLet alone your daughters.
Your are really sick.
OMG - That's so feckin' hilarious I'm almost in tears. It was so thoughtful of Sarah to let Joe know, along with everyone else, just how well his in-your-face gamesmanship is working out for him. She couldn't even stay outside after she found out it was Joe next door? And she's drilled all the way down to voyeuristic innuendo on day one? It's wor-r-rki-i-ing. My god that woman is an idiot. Palin just announced that she's going to be a seething, paranoid, hilarious wreck oozing venom from her pores as long as Joe is there, and she's making sure he and we get to enjoy the full measure of it. We can now stop mourning the loss of Meg Stupidtongue. Please, do keep us updated, Sarah. And how clever of the property owners next door - by Fall, Sarah's offers will be at least twice market for their property. Enjoy your summer in Alaska, Joe. It's sure to provide plenty of laughs on so many levels. Sarah will see to it.
ReplyDeleteShe gets pissed off, then vents on her facebook page so she can feel justified in her anger by her obedient followers that "someone dares to take poor Sarah on". To anyone that knows better, she's a child, and transparently so.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Mrs PAYlin now sees the benefit of building codes,a decent setback would have kept her from building her home so annoyingly close to her neighbors.
ReplyDeleteClueless, but some day you'll see the light.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sure she got home from months of traveling and immediately went out and mowed the lawn and of course with Trig in a backpack on her back because she's superwoman. None of those menfolk could possibly have mowed the lawn, and she couldn't bear to spend any of her 12 million to pay someone to do it. I call bullshit. Love how she set up the imagery for her perverted followers by saying she was in a tank top and shorts. She really came home and sat down with a crunch wrap supreme and turned on TLC's "Say yes to the dress". Love how hard she tries to keep this whole "perfect superwoman" myth alive. I'd love to hear from Joe Mcginnis on whether he actually saw her mowing the grass. It's so obvious that she is trying hard to cover all the bases, but her followers just eat it up. It's also disgusting that she mentions Piper's room. She really has a fixation about her daughters and suggestions of molestation. Imagine how hard she's going to have to work all summer to keep the myth alive with Joe living next door. She thought she was going to be able to lay around and just shoot her TLC show, but now she'll have to shoot moose, mow the lawn, actually put in a garden, have the kids swim in the dead lake and make all the appearances of the perfect family! Karma's a bitch!
ReplyDeleteBPsucks: You don't really believe any of that nonesense about Scarah mowing the lawn, do you? Yeah, right, right after she loaded the rent -a-Trig in her back! Too funny!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure how I feel that Joe M. rented that particular house but, that aside...
ReplyDeleteMy first thought after reading this was that this is how she is going to "get" him- she'll accuse him of stalking Piper, her or whoever happens to be at home. This rant should go as viral as possible to stop that from happening.
Once again, she tries to have it both ways. Continually sexualizing her young daughter, and then viciously promoting an imaginary attack on said daughter's "innocence". It looks like her whole family is into "grooming" behavior. It all makes sense, since in ten years Piper can take over the Candies franchise.
ReplyDeletemuddimo-The house next door is not Palin's space, next you'll be saying everyone on the lake should move so she can have her space. Why didn't she rent or buy the house next door? And do you think it's OK for the Palin's to take that picture of the man on the deck next door and post it on Facebook? Wouldn't that be stalking and an invasion of privacy?
ReplyDeleteI would be calling a lawyer if that was my neighbor posting that picture on facebook....and insinuating I was a stalker and a pervert looking in Piper's window.
Awesome! Politico has an update from Joe's son!
ReplyDeleteUPDATE: I haven't been able to reach McGinniss, but did send an errant email to his son, the novelist Joe McGinniss Jr., who replied, "Sadly, she's right. We tried our best to intervene, but alas, the heart wants what it wants. We can only pray for him now. He's convinced that Todd will step aside and when the time is right, he'll be there, right next door, to pick up the pieces."
From Wikipedia:
ReplyDeleteMcGinniss' book, tentatively titled "Sarah Palin's Year of Living Dangerously" will be published by Broadway/Random House in 2011.
After reading about this guy, no way would he write about SP and not expose the Trig pregnancy. SP is scared out of her mind and trying to discredit him before the book comes out. He's been researching her since 2009. If Dunn doesn't do it, this guy courts controversy and will get the job done.
She is so stupid!! She announces to the whole world that Joe now lives next door and now everybody is watching.....if ANYTHING wierd happens, the word will be out immediately.
ReplyDeleteThe whole thing might have stayed under the radar otherwise. Yep--she's trying to stir the pot with the 'bots.
And I agree with the comment that her constant sexualizing of her daughters ( appearing on Oprah with Bristol making that wierd revirgining
pledge & discussing her sex life, the David Letterman stink, the supposed bad boys at their door threatening Bristol after the e-mail hacking, the alledged gang rape threat in Juneau that nobody had heard of, now the peeping Tom reference & Piper's room) makes me even more convinced she has a history of abuse. That is just creepy.
Yes, the lady doth protest too much. People who have nothing to hide, hide nothing....
That is wonderful news. I have enjoyed many of Joe McGinnis books over the years, he does an excellent job of dissecting his subject, and with an open mind. I look forward to reading his analysis of the failed VP candidate.
ReplyDeleteIt must be those nasty building codes Wasilla doesn't have that allowed the property next door to be rented. Obviously without the former half term gov's permission or tenant approval.
Perhaps the Palins will vacation in TX with all those far right conservative pals for the summer. You know, in a pockets of "real Americans"
I love how one FB poster corrected Sarah's grammar...ROFL!
ReplyDeleteHey Sarah it's really official you are now a full bucket of crazy.
If that fence goes up, I"d install a sunbathing station on the roof of my house. Lots of trees there; gotta catch that scarce Northern sunlight!
ReplyDeleteIvyfree
Joe McGinniss right next door to the Palin compound. Yep, it's a beautiful thing isn't it? I hope to visit Joe sometime this summer with a bottle of wine in hand and happiness in my heart. We'll sit on the deck and talk about Sarah whackjob Palin living dangerously. Maybe Track can run out and snap a picture for us. I'm so thrilled to know that the Palin's are somewhat uncomfortable and being monitored and documented.
ReplyDeleteShe sounds like a maniac. Joe was peering at her and her cottage cheese thighs and he is going to peer at a nine year old in her room. One word Sarah. Curtains. And didn't Bristol testify that they lived out in the middle of nowhere yet this house is this close ?
ReplyDeleteto mudimo@7:20/7:23
ReplyDeleteyou an an idiot - just like your darling sarah idiotpalin! Joe is NOT - read again, idiot - NOT living on or in Sarah's property and hence NOT invading your lover Sarah's privacy! And it's you and your kind that are the trolls.
What a nasty bunch of people you are. The only thins Sarah Palin ever did to you was point out your hypocrisy, and you hate her for it.
ReplyDeleteOf course she does her own yard work- we all do.
We conservatives are the ones who do the jobs the liberals won't do. Now we're going to fix the mess you idiots have created. Now get out of the way and let us get to work.
Up the meds!
ReplyDeleteShe's coding a message out to her beloved followers, a call to threaten, harras, intimidate and invade Joe's privacy.
ReplyDeleteWhen is she going to ask him if she can call him Joe?
I'm sitting here wondering how Sarah's "I looked up in surprise to see a “new neighbor” overlooking my property just a stone’s throw away" matches up with Bristol's court testimony about living "in the middle of nowhere in Alaska... in the middle of the woods." One or both of them are delusional?
ReplyDelete"No "Presidential Candidate" would make a post like this."
ReplyDeleteSeriously. She has the intellectual and emotional maturity of a twelve year old. And she thinks she's ready to be a world leader?
I bet the neighbor who rented to Joe is finally getting back at the Palins for building that monstrosity so close to his or her house.
Joe McGinniss deserves a medal for courage in defence of his country.
ReplyDeleteThat's honest-to-God patriotism.
I see Gryphen (who's afraid to use his real name) is a teacher. No wonder.
ReplyDeleteoh yeah Chris? I have a website where you can get that GED, you so need.
ReplyDeleteOnly conservatives and Palin lovers do yard work? LOL OMG, that made my day. I'll remember that when I go out to prune, till, and irrigate my 5 acres of pecan trees. I'm a middle aged progressive woman, and I do ALL the yard and farm work around my home. Unlike Sister Sarah, I'm smart enough not to do it in tank top, shorts, and carrying my baby on my back. Sweet. Jesus.
ReplyDeleteChris: so funny!! ALL conservatives do their own yard work? Why do you think we need so many Mexican gardners in the first place? There are a lot of conservatives in Greenwich and Easthampton who do not do their own yard work.
ReplyDeleteWhat jobs do you do that we won't? Are we going to divide the jobs now too? Dividing the people isn't enough for Mrs. Palin?
She really DID set the scene, shorts, tank top, homemade (yea right) pie, giggling kids and her mowing the lawn. Were all those detail necessary?Can you see any other politician writing this stuff to the public? No. She is not a politician. Thank the powers that be.
ReplyDeleteNo words to describe her reaction. As far as this JM renting a house next door, that is very nervy of him. But, how the Palins deal with it is the factor. All they had to do is check municipal guidelines and find out what is considered spying by a neighbor.
ReplyDeleteOr just build a fence with that $12M - case closed.
The personal details she writes on her facebook of her private activities is perplexing. For a woman who says to the media, stay away, or posts signs on their property to stay away, she loves to let everyone know she wears a tank top, and what side of the house Piper's bedroom is on. As a mother, I cannot understand this at all. I'd never divulge anything about our family activities, especially on facebook, with a million(?) followers, as a "political" celebrity. What is her problem?
Wouldn't a big toddler like Trig be heavy on her back? She's a tiny woman. Sounds like she has a Comic Book Super-Hero Woman complex.
I think Scarah's distance is a bit off. From the photograph, Joe's balcony looks much further than 15 feet away, more like 100 feet. In the photo, the red shed is on the edge of the Paylin property. Notice how Track (or whoever) had to go almost to the water's edge to take that shot of Joe? Also, it does not look like Joe's balcony overlooks her yard at all.
ReplyDeleteAs usual, she is "making stuff up."
Don't I remember that SP testified at the "hacker's" trial that she lives so far out in the wilderness that Bristol was terrified that an anonymous cell-phone caller would break into the house and harm her?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``
John McCain didn't even know how many houses he OWNED.....let alone imagine him doing his own yard work...Mitt Romney, donated around 25 MILLION to his own campaign and owns mansions all over the country...would you have us believe that these multi millionaire republicans (including $i$ter $arah) jump on a jet and fly home to home to do their own yard work? ..ROFLMAO......what you all of you DO, do, is fling $hit like a bunch of caged monkeys and hope that some of it sticks. Whether it's a flat out lie, or makes no sense at all or both....as you just proved......lol
Who in the hell mows a lawn with a toddler strapped to their backs?
ReplyDeleteNot to mention the noise exposure (especially if it's a ride-on mower) would be damaging to his hearing. Not for a one time event, but if exposed repeatedly. What kind of mother would expose a special needs child (or any child) to that?
Should be an interesting summer with Joe observing.
First Chris, Sarah the Retard can't even spell hypocrisy much less have the cranial fortitude to point it out in someone. Believe me, no one hates her. Who the hell would expend the energy to hate someone who brings so much joy and laughter to the masses?
ReplyDeleteSecond, I agree she's covered all the bases in her latest laughable poutrage screed:
Someone's pickin' on her youngin'-- 'Joe's peepin' on Piper!' Check
A little cheesecake (ugh) for the 80 and over all pale and all male Viagra crowd -- 'I was in a tank top and shorts.' Check
She's jus' plain folks -- 'She was out mowin' that grass all by her lonesome' (yeah, right). Check
She evoked the sacred image of Trig for the anti-choicers who love them little babies so much in the womb. After that, not so much -- 'I got 'my' 35 lb. infant whom I really actually despise on my back while I'm mowin' that grass' (again, yeah, right.)Check, check and check
Hmm, could Stupid Sarah really be a mad genius, or just plain mad? I'm voting just plain mad.
"...just a stone's throw away"? Didn't Bristol testify at the trial in Kentucky that the Palin's house was in the middle of nowhere? Just asking.
ReplyDeleteMorning Gyph,
ReplyDeleteLaughing at this morning read. Cause you know, what Taud said, "what goes around comes around"... too funny.
So a couple of things. First, I've never been a fan of Joe. I believe he continued and further advanced the Alaskan stereotypes in his writings. ~sigh~
Second, my little slice of life in the Mat Su Valley is just wonderful. The neibors are at least 10 acres away. If not more. And yeah, 2 acres of lawn or what I like to call, my dirt making material. Mulch, baby mulch! Of course I've got to pack the kid around on the lawn mower. Except I've a riding mower. I also have a child car seat straped to the back of my ATV. Call me crazy, but the ATV is the mode of transportation where I'm at.
And, its too damn bad for $carah Palin and all her trumped up drama, to get to live next to a neibor like Joe.
Oh yeah, this is going to be good.
Gryphen, is it possible to find a better way to distinguish your writing from the excerpts you post? It seems there are some of us having a hard time deciphering when the excerpts end and your commentary begins. It may show up fine on your computer, but it looks pretty much the same to me.
ReplyDeleteI guess we can relate to Palin's unease if we think about what it would feel like to have someone you know doesn't like you move in next door during a season when you might be outside more or have windows open. Plus, if that someone was known to be writing a book about you and your family, well, I can relate to her unease. However, that said, she went far, far beyond a normal reaction.
It's one thing to feel put upon or uneasy, but it's quite another to insinuate that your new neighbor might be a pedophile or sex stalker. She is right on the border of sanity and psycholand.
BTW, with two buildings in their compound, why not just have Piper move into another bedroom for the summer? That's not a big deal.
Goodness knows, they have all the room they need and then some.
Also, too, because I've read that Wasilla doesn't have building codes, how tall will that fence be? As tall as they can manage, right?
I figure they are going to make putting it up as noisy as possible to get on Joe's nerves.
Real class act that Palin family.
Chill out Chris. Progressives come in all sizes, shapes and incomes. My folks worked in blue collar jobs, were union members and got laid-off every six months. We had to raise chickens even though we lived in the city so we'd be able to afford eggs and meat. Please don't be a social snob. Liberal and progressives differ from you only in the way we think, not in our humanity or circumstances. We think everyone, including you, deserves to be treated fairly with dignity and respect. Wish you felt the same.
ReplyDeleteLawn mowing adventure? is that the one where Trig gets a rock in the eye because you have him strapped to your back while he is a few feet away from a loud machine?
ReplyDeleteShe is clearly trying to intimate Joe into leaving. Didn't Sarah get very nasty a while back and try to blame two authors of stalking Piper on her way home from school? Now she has her son stalking Joe so they can have a picture on her facebook page. Didn't the Palins just go on private property to take that picture? Why couldn't she just take the picture from Pipers room?
ReplyDeleteGotta love it.
ReplyDeleteFirst Palin claims McGinnis is 15 feet away. Look at the picture. It's not 15 feet.
Then she talks about her "family's return" from the lower 48 endorsement tour, implying the whole passel of them, plus or minus 1 or 2- had accompanied her. False. She was videotaped trying to sneak out of Idaho after endorsing the known loser/liar Vaughan Ward- she may have had Trig but she sure didn't have her "family."
Then she titillates her teabag friends by implying that- just for them- she dressed skimpily in a tank top and shorts to mow the lawn with her 2 year old son strapped on her back. Sound believable?
Then she has the deck overlooking her children's play area, her kitchen window, Piper's bedroom, her garden, and the Palin family swimming hole. Must be a hell of a deck.
What a pack of lies. About the only truth out of this is that Palin's neighbors are like her and will do anything for money and/or they can't stand her and rented the house just to get her goat- which they easily did.
That a thin skinned P.A.T.H.O.L.O.G.I.C.A.L. liar.
Can anyone blow the photo up larger? It looks to my middle-aged eyes that the man standing on the deck has his back to the photographer. Kind of hard to leer in that position, isn't it?
ReplyDeletePoor Sarah, trying too hard again. Todd, she really needs a total, no-electronics, no entourage vacation - some place nice and quiet. She needs to chill Big Time, learn some yoga breathing, eat some veg and get her bowels quieted down (they seem to be in uproar), and absolutely no Red Bull or sugar.

ReplyDeleteSurprised you have an ad for PA senate candidate Pat Toomey. He represents the far right, Big Business and the continuation of the erosion of the Constitution--more repression of rights in the name of "anti-terrorism."
His opponent, Joe Sestak, has worked to strengthen unions, voted against the Iraq war, is more moderate overall, willing to go after corporate greed and obstructionism, and miltarism (which has displaced diplomacy to th delight of the arms manufacturers).
Given your effors to unmask Palin, I'm surprised IM would accept ads for Toomey since his record is not different in crucial aspects from the anti-working class, pro-war, pro-Wall St. policies promoted by Palin and her monied backers.
Hey Joe, can you see Russia from your rental house?
ReplyDeleteJust in.
ReplyDeleteJoe is inviting David Letterman over for the summer.
Good luck to Joe walking around Wasilla. The locals if they read (which I doubt)will not welcome him.
ReplyDeleteFunny the way -out there in the very middle of nowhere- they build a whole bunch of houses & a hotel all in one itty bitty tiny area. Or maybe the Palins are just full of shit.
ReplyDeleteMy guess is Joe did this for kicks. He can also legally take pictures from his deck (legal so long as one doesn't step on the property) & watch the comings and goings of the fruitloops first hand & from his back door.
& maybe he'll meet some of the saner Wasilla folks who will fill his ears.
So much fun to see her fuming.
But yet again, her "Christian" fans are offering to beat him up or hoping he accidently gets shot and turned into stew. Praise the Lord. Right.

Sarah Palin-Backed Congressional Candidate Accused Of Plagiarizing Obama's 2004 Convention Speech
I wonder if one of Palin's ghost writers works for Ward. Wonder why she hasn't denounced plagiarism since she wants all corruption and dishonesty rooted out of government.
Or maybe she'll accuse McGinniss of doing it- while he was peering in Piper's window.
Yeah, conservatives like Sarah are doing such a great job......
ReplyDeleteNo, wait a minute. She QUIT her job halfway through her term as the most powerful woman in Alaska . You know, that little job she took called BEING THE GOVERNOR.
Premature withdrawal.......it's not satisfying during sex, and absolutely unacceptable in our nation's "leaders."
If Sarah has a servants heart and leads a wonderful life being such a beautiful mother and wife and all her children are perfect why is she so worried about someone renting the house next door? This is America and you can rent to whoever you want, and Joe can rent where ever he wants. Sarah is just trying to play the victim again and needs to STFU and keep her nose in her own yard, as in mind your own business.
ReplyDeleteAnon 820 - she beat you to the joke - look at the caption on the photo. I'll admit the "Hi neighbor, may i call you Joe?" caption she put on the picture was kind of funny.
ReplyDeleteShe is an idiot! And, has no one to blame but herself. She's not in control and it friggin drives her crazy! There is a national poll seeing how many want to send her back to Alaska! I'm afraid many of us in Alaska don't even want her! Piper's bedroom window? Give me a break - sounds like the lies she and Toad told regarding David Letterman! Insinuations!!! Go to some other country, Mr. and Mrs. Palin!
ReplyDeleteHigh temperature in Wasilla yesterday was 64 degrees. A bit chilly for my tastes to be wearing a tank top, but maybe they are made of hardier stuff in Alaska.
ReplyDeleteOut in da woods, with neighbors more than 15 feet away and a best western with a 24 hour fitness center and high speed internet well over 1/4 mile away sat the lonely scared paylin family mowing the lawn with baby in hand, and shooting wild tacos for survival, also too.
ReplyDeleteWOuldn't you be scared too if another pathetic writer/blogger moved next door to you? Especially since Sarah's never without criticism and double standards. Everything she does is spun to the negative. She can't walk around an airport without cameras being thrust in her face. Even in LA, NY and places where celebrities frequent most, people leave them alone. Celebrities are allowed to enjoy life outside without much annoyance. And SArah does NOT bring it on herself. Whats the difference betweem Angelina taking her tykes to the set, Katie leaving Suri backstage when she was on broadway, MAriska bringing August to the SVU set, and Sarah bringing a kid to a speech? How do you know the other kids are/aren't receiving education? Stop with the double standards where kids come in. There are plenty of other things to worry about, starting with Sarah's preparation for the presidency.
ReplyDeleteAnd - if things are so bad in that house, why is Track there? Trust me, thered be talk about town if someone wasnt happy.
Ok, I understand feeling uncomfortable to have a neighbor move in who is writing a book about you, but her response was over the top paranoid.
ReplyDeletePlus, what is with this 'Sacagawea with papoose on her back while mowing the lawn' act? "Oh, look, there's Joe Mcginnis. Oh, and there's the pacific ocean. Must now protect daughters from preverts. Must also, too, squat and give birth now while baking a pie."
What a dipsh*t! Where's the appalacian swimmin' hole? She can't be talking about the toxic lake, can she? Does she really allow her children to expose their bodies to water that kills fish?
So Scarah, how's that tank top, shorts, strap-on kid, mower and 'Alaskan lifestyle' workin out for ya?
ReplyDeleteMethinks Toad and Trick are gonna be thrilled to go fishing in Bristol Bay. They probably can't wait to get the hell out of the compound.
Good luck with your fence Scarah.
psssst - And I wouldn't go spewing off what your wearing now a days. Enlight of your previous wardrobe fiasco(s).
But something tells me you like the attention. You are well practiced at self created drama and making it literally present itself at your doorstep.
She says: I'll try to keep Trig's squeals down to a quiet giggle
ReplyDeleteWow, we all know she hasn't spent 10 minutes alone with that kid in 2.5 years. My guess is Joe won't see Trig at the compound, seeing as Molly or Heather is the actual caregiver.
Syrin, since you've known the Palins and Heaths all their lives, do you know if she was sexually abused by a pedophile or two or three? She seems like she's a total psycho and inciting her psycho followers.
ReplyDeleteShe posted a pic of him in his private rented residence? And then fantasized about him looking in that lil hair pullin' pipsqueaks window? I'd say its open picture takin' season on the entire paylin klan at home in the swimmin' hole or cement pond or the dead lake. near the best wester with a 24 hour gym and high speed interweb. fuck you $arah.
ReplyDeleteI was just writing to my sister about JM moving in next door and wanted to remind her who JM was. I've read some of his books and loved them. As I was listing the books, I realized that he writes a lot of true crime. He's done some fiction (crime fiction I believe) and non-crime non-fiction too, but I think he's best known for his true crime books - about the Kissel brothers (murder), Jeffrey McDonalds (murder), Selling of a President (Nixon), Blind Faith (murder), Fatal Justice (a murder trial), The Darkest Night (murder). The not-crime stories include: The Last Brother (about TEd Kennedy), and most recently Going To Extremes (about Alaska)
ReplyDeleteI wonder what JM uncovered while doing Going to Extremes. crime? or just byzantine intrigue.
This does not seem like good news for SP. BUt then again, if she has nothing to hide, what's the big deal.
Anon: bloggers don't get to choose which ads show up on the blog, so there are SarahPAC ads that show up at palingates, which is very funny.
ReplyDeletethe FIRST comment I read on her FB page was "beat him up"...a little further along were some "hunting" suggestions and "cold water fishing".
ReplyDeletethe guy rented legally a house and $arah had a picture taken of HIM in his domicile, and they are whining about her privacy being invaded and wanting to hurt or kill him....I hope this is being monitored properly.
Gryphen, You should check to see if anyone is renting after Joe, good to see Sarah cornered.
ReplyDeleteI don't get Sarah, all these years she lived next to Canada and Russia and she was never scared or paranoid enough to build a wall. Now all of a sudden, she builds a wall. I'm sure Russia and Canada can see Piper's room from across the pond.
ReplyDeleteSarah is really letting her venom flow. And who writes what they are wearing, shorts & tank, ya right.
ReplyDeleteKathy Griffin... where are you? I believe this is a good time to pay a visit to Wasilla's new resident Joe McGinniss and maybe you can televise a tv special from Joe's summer retreat. I heard the view of the lake makes a nice background for the cameras.
ReplyDeleteThe investigation of Palin's faked pregnancy is going nowhere Gryphen and you're making yourself crazy with your hating. Amusing!
ReplyDeleteThe former half governor who QUIT early also too will be issuing another facebook rant soon.
ReplyDeleteWords included will be Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and chevrolet.
Cause for the rant: falling ratings, cancelled appearances,endorsing candidates who lose,
exposed HUGE PAYMENTS from poor university foundations, elitist travel expenses reimbursed by unsuspecting tax exempt donors EXPOSED,secret shredded documents not done right-LIED ABOUT-THEN FOUND AND PUBLISHED, just to name a few reasons the boats rocking.
Good thing there aren't any secrets to hide back in Wasilly!
Who's to say they're not the ones doing the peeping?? Looking at that monstrosity of a house w/ no character on a modest plot of land, my guess is that the neighbors really weren't too happy when the house next door was built up to their backdoor. If I had to guess, I bet one of SP's favorite late 70's shows was Dynasty. That era set life goals of $ and power (w/o remembering that either rarely brought happiness) for a lot of not-very-deep thinkers. Of course, SP stumbled upon hers and has been acting it out tastelessly as it comes along. On another note, I just want to mention that we should not jeopardize all the hard work of this blog by hurting it's credibility with comments that may be offensive and unrelated to the message. I'm referring to comments on wigs, etc. These may do more harm than good toward the ultimate goal, which is to keep ignorance out of public office. And, good comment, anon 9:02.
ReplyDeleteJust a stones throw away? Didn't scardy cat Bristol say she was afraid when her cell phone was taken away. Claimed out in isolated area in court. Yet, Alaskan dingbat said close enough to look in Piper's window. Perhaps $P is projecting again. NE should dog her like Edwards was, and not back down. NE did report her affair, but backed down in 2008.
ReplyDeleteJoe McGinnis wrote a book about a pyschpathic murderer. He's probably pretty current on the checklist. Sarah Palin's facebook entry qualifies her for a few tick marks on the checklist.
ReplyDeleteGet under your skin, Princess? Boo hoo, Sarah.
ReplyDeleteUpon reflection, I guess I can understand Palin's disappointment. Here she is, out mowing the lawn, hoping some strapping, virile young African American 'mandingo' has moved next door and is ogling her bod.
ReplyDeleteDon't cry Sarah...you can still have Bristol's spawn.
Anonymous said @ 7:16 AM ...I have a feeling that house will conveniently burn down soon, ending any more snooping renters for quite some time.
ReplyDeleteThat's an unalloyed threat, and I hope Gryphen can track the ISP (although I suspect it's probably an AOL account or is re-routed).
muddimo said @ 7:20 AM ...What Joe McGinniss is doing is just creepy. Obviously not illegal in any way, but definitely an invasion of the Palin's space. Not cool at all.
The Palins were the ones to trespass and "invade space". Did Joe McGinniss INVITE Todd Palin to come over and question him? No. That's trespassing onto the rental property.
Did Joe McGinniss invite Track to take a picture of him, and did Sarah Palin get his permission to take a picture of him AND post it on her Facebook page?
OK, that isn't necessarily a requirement, because Joe McGinniss is a public figure himself -- which is why Palin herself has no right to claim SHE'S the victim in this situation unless she's willing to give Joe Mcinniss the same courtesy she's demanding for herself.
As usual, we come around to the same conclusion we always do when discussing Sarah Palin -- she's the worst hypocrite in America.
Ben Stein, POlitico, wrote: UPDATE: I haven't been able to reach McGinniss, but did send an errant email to his son, the novelist Joe McGinniss Jr., who replied, "Sadly, she's right. We tried our best to intervene, but alas, the heart wants what it wants. We can only pray for him now. He's convinced that Todd will step aside and when the time is right, he'll be there, right next door, to pick up the pieces."
ReplyDeleteI don't get it. Are Sr. & Jr estranged? Is he insinuating that JM is in love/infatuated SP? Is it tongue-in-cheek? I'm missing something.
"sjk from the belly of the plane 10:19am" brought up a very good point. Joe (can I call him Joe?) legally rented a house in Wasilla which I would think is great for the local economy and now Sarah has pictures taken of him relaxing on his patio enjoying a beautiful day. In my humble opinion, I believe the Palins invaded Joe’s privacy by taking spy pictures and posting it on Sarah’s Facebook. So I do not think the Palins should complain if Joe takes some pictures of them in return. As Mr. Sarah Palin mentioned, “What goes around, comes around”. So ReTodd, you took the first pictures so I would not complain if “Joe the Photographer” reciprocated in kindness.
ReplyDeleteAnon@7:12am
ReplyDeleteSounds like a direct threat there. As another poster pointed out were any "mysterious fires" or any other "accident" happen to Joe could open up a can of worms, just sayin' Mysterious church fires a fire that someone dies, a fire at a garage a dog killed, a mysterious plane crash...yes Ms granny better make sure Joe is snug and safe...JUST SAYIN'!
And Chris @8:22 LMFAO!
Of course she does her yard work?? Honey have you seen her nails? French mani cost more ya know...!
And really what DID JOE do? He is exercising his god given freedoms to move where ever he wants, are you sayin' only granny has that right to go screeching all over 'merika??? How dare you!
Whoa, she did it again, make a rukus to deflect. Notice the # of comments for this vs for Ward' speech stealing?
ReplyDeleteJoe Mcginniss please be careful.
ReplyDeleteFrom the blogroll right here right next to this post this is from AmericaBlog.
"FBI details surge in death threats against lawmakers"
"The Republicans have bet the bank on turning the country against government, in the hopes that it will get the Democrats unelected. Except that the kooks are hearing the GOP's message, about Obama being a socialist, about there being Maoists in the Cabinet, about Obama wanting to kill your grandma, and they're responding accordingly "

Gryphen, you know damn well $P doesn't know what an "interloper" is...
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, "MY Department of Resources"??? The over-huge ego strikes again.
And a shout out to all the droolers with her sexual imagery in shorts and tank top (driving dangerously with a child on her back?). What a lousy mother.
This really made me laugh. And I make way better pie than whatshername. If I still lived in Alaska I would deliver a pie to Joe The Neighbor. lol! Speaking of which, we have a great tradition in my area. We throw pie parties. Cozy fireside pie parties in the winter; sunny outdoor pie parties in the summer. Seems like Joe might need to throw a pie party. (no, I did not say throw a pie, though that sounds like a great way to finish a pie party)
ReplyDeleteWhat happenend to that Alaskan hospitality we have been hearing so much about or telling us about the great fishing in Alaska? So a person from the lower 48 takes ya up on your invitiation and your attitude becomes,
ReplyDelete"Ya'll come visit us, but stay outa my neighborhood!"
That's advertisement Wasilla and the Alaskan commerce can't buy!
Joe,
ReplyDeleteI doubt you have the b...s to survive even two months in Alaska, without whimpering back to the city life. Alaskans don't take kindly to intrusion of privacy. Maybe we should borrow the terrorism tactics of the SEIU and go "picket" your rental house. What a louse!
The answers to Chris made me giggle too. Since dingbat mean girl is not going away any time soon, let's all rally around these great opportunities to laugh at her idiocy and that of her butt sniffers.
ReplyDeleteAnon 10:25, this blog is not about a fake pregnancy. It is about a discussion of all things related to immorality and corruption and working to become aware and educated (see the heading of the blog). I know that education is the bane of those who don't like to question and who feel threatened by other opinions, so it can be hard to identify civil discourse by those who aren't familiar with it.
ReplyDeleteGryphen .. Time for an UPDATE.
ReplyDeleteHuffpo has posted the McGinnis story as well. They don't mention the SICK FAKEbook rant though. Everybody leave comments there.

Anon at whatever time idiots post: Mrs. Palin has been in NYC where I live many times for meetings at FOX and the FOX owned publisher and she never makes any of the gossip pages here except once when SHE called a reporter from a restaurant. So, she is ignored here, trust me.
ReplyDeleteAnd Joe McGinness is not a "pathetic blogger" but a writer with a long resume of well -reviewed books, he is a serious professional who apparently has a wicked sense of humor.
Sarah Palin is clearly "damaged goods." You don't get this messed up by being raised in a happy family. So sad for her kids. So toxic for anyone she comes in contact with.
ReplyDeleteThis is a test.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the deal with her sexualizing her daughters?
ReplyDeleteShe should be relieved it isn't the FBI that moved in next door.
ReplyDeleteWhat does Sarah actually do out in her yard that must not be seen? A normal response would be to let the guy be bored to tears watching her read magazines on her deck all summer.
ReplyDeleteDidn't the Johnston's have people move in on them? In their house? No one whines about that.
ReplyDeleteMcGinnis' move to Wasilla shows the determination, tenacity and creativity of true American exceptionalism.
ReplyDeleteHe is a respected and best-selling author who merely wanted to have a conversation with her. He was willing to pay generously for her time. I believe he even disclosed the issues he wanted to discuss.
I'm not at all convinced McGinnis is Palin's foe. It seems more likely that he is making valiant attempts to be objective by seeking her input. She had the power to charm and positively influence his writings about her. So what did she do? Rather than look at his move to Lake Lucille at face value, she responded with paranoia, venom and lies. If he wasn't planning to write about her damaged psyche before her disgusting facebook spew, it will be difficult to avoid now. She is guaranteeing him another bestseller.
Given how Sarah so frequently exhibits the 'crazies', how can anyone not see that she is indeed capable of faking a pregnancy and pulling off a baby-switching scheme.
Several comments: I don't see how Sarah can pretend to be a possible presidential candidate. Her reaction to Rachel was Junior High Mean Girl. Her reaction Joe moving next door is Junior High Mean Girl. If Sarah is this reactive to tiny things, imagine her handling criticism on the campaign trail.
ReplyDeleteNo one has mentioned it, so I will, DNA! Someone will have access to Palin Garbage! Todd will have to stand watch with his rifle to protect the evidence.
The quitter 1/2 term, GINO, is upset about a neighbor who she thinks does not care for her. Well, how about all the racial hate you stirred up for millions of $$. We have to live with the results of what you stir, and then run back to your OPM's compound. Millions of citizens of this country are less safe because of her words. Yet, she complains about a 60 something man who rents for part of a year. Move in with the former VP, or Rove. You spoke with them before you walked out on the citizens of Ak. last year. A whining woman is a weak woman. And by the way, there is no way she could mow the grass even if she did not have a heavy child on her back. She is too weak.
ReplyDeleteMy faith is being restore in journalism and those in pursuit of facts.
ReplyDeleteThese people are brave and go where most fear to tread. They should be exalted for the heros that they are. Thanks to Joe McGinniss and the brave souls that are taking on BP.
We won't hear about the brave who will unravel the BP facts in Anc. until their work is done.
All the Palins are well prepared for camera crews and the like, Discovery and all that goes with that have been in the works for months.
Karma, I love you. You've been a bit slow for my tastes, but this is a good start.
ReplyDeleteI live in a high density part of a community with zoning codes. When I saw the aerial views of the château I was stunned that they were so clumped up in that little section of the alleged back woods. That's what you get in a place that cares zero for zoning and codes. Reap what you sow Todd and Sarah. Build your 100 foot tall fence. Hilarious. No one can canoe at a resort?
ReplyDeleteThis was taken before the new building, you can see how near to the Best Western, where I will definitely try to book a suite and see how the fishing goes. We have been curious how long of a walk it is to the old Shooter's pool hall and plan on doing some walking and hiking in the area.
Amazing how brave you libs are, all posting up Anonymous and all. See? Just like me, I only post that way so you don't come to my house and shit on my lawn. Being as you all can't figure out how to use indoor plumbing and all....
ReplyDelete"including the bizarre anti-Palin administration oil development pieces that resulted in my Department of Natural Resources announcing that his work is the most twisted energy-related yellow journalism they’d ever encountered)"
ReplyDeleteIn Palin-speak this means his article was so spot on she had to use a department in her administration to criticize it and demonize him.
Also, liberals are the ones used to cleaning up messes...Clinton after Reagan and Obama after Bush. You're as delusional as your queen, who after flying first class, staying in 4 star hotels and sipping on bendy straws is certainly not doing hard labor or carrying Trig around when there are no cameras. Sarah's just having a bad day, lashing out because her pick in SC is being exposed as a fraud. But of course, birds of a feather...
The locals liked Sarah because she attracted money to the area. If the media moves up there (filming Discovery and other) that will generate money in the Valley. Some of the locals will open up to that. I think July 4th will be a great time for celebration and to welcome the next wave of Mat-Su Valley visitors.
ReplyDeletebwaaaa ha HA!!!!!! Best of luck to you Joe! Enjoy the Alaskan summer writing the book we all anxiously await :-) Be sure to invite Gryphen, the Johnstons, Linda, Lyda, Andree, Kim C, Shannyn and AKM over for a cup of tea and good conversation. Oh what a great summer it will be!!!
ReplyDeleteSarah just has to be fuming inside. You know how she hates everyone that is critical of her. When she tries to use her mafia-style practices to threaten him or to run him off, it will be documented. That being said, I am concerned about Joe's safety because Sarah could easily incite some of her followers to the point of violence. Ask the judge in Bristol's custody case about the threats. One thing for sure, this will be interesting.
ReplyDeleteIf I were Joe I would have some good video surveillance equient set up on the property line to protect myself and for the police to use to identify amtybody tja assaults u. Maybe they rented to him. Because it is really hard to rent next door to the neighborhood hillbillys. I mow my own lawn also but I don't have the grandkids strapped to my back and I don't have 12 million dollars. I thought Bristol testified their house was in the middle of nowhere ?
ReplyDeleteGryphen, you nailed it asking what image is she projecting. Wow...a pie baking,toddler strapped wonder woman who with her spouse at homeis gunna make a blueberry pie afterwards...no doubt using blueberries she grew while being on the road.
ReplyDeleteFacts: Todd went over to the new neighbor and a Palin took a photo of him when he was not looking, posted it for over a million or more to see then insinuate he is a stalker and pedophile. The Palin's are masters at turning things around that they do onto others.
Sarah will say anthing to incite her followers manipulating them to rise to aggression, death wishes, contemplate murder and act out exactly what Sarah wants them to do appearing to keep her hands clean. It is disturbing to read her followers thoughts to see to Joe's demise.
Anyone removing the mask (projected image) of personality Palin exemplifies is perceived as causing their demise. Palin needs her false images of perfection including she cares for Track, Bristol, the rest and two babies..the lawn etc. It is pathetic.
Ms. Sarah is insinuating that Joe McGinnis is spying on her in her shorts and tank top. Have to get all those male conservatives on their white horses to save Queen Sarah's honor!
ReplyDeleteI predict the first time Joe tries to have guests, Sarah will call the cops to complain about the noise. I envision Palin going on a major hate campaign against Joe to drive him out. She is obviously angry about this, and I'm loving it.
ReplyDeletePalins may have tried to buy the neighbor's property,
ReplyDeletebut the owner wasn't willing to sell. To me, the whole set-up of 2 mega-mansions plus outbuildings on that postage stamp size acreage on a toxic lake no
less, is quite humerous. Now we learn they've
squeezed in a swimming hole too? Don't kid yourselves
folks, Sarah "I-went-outside-in-my-shorts-and-tank-
top" looooooooooooooooves the attention. Oh, &
Track or whoever might want to think twice about
photographing the new neighbor going lawfully about his business, else you might find yourself had up for stalking.

Is the fence done yet?
ReplyDeleteBlueberry pie? I thought the lawnmower would be offering cherry pie
ReplyDeleteI wonder why Mrs. Palin said nothing about the neighbors peeking in windows, etc when the owners of the home lived there?
ReplyDeleteJoe McGinniss Can Watch Sarah Palin Mow Her Lawn While He Writes About Her New York Observer - Zeke Turner -
ReplyDeleteJoe McGinniss has found a great summer rental where he can work on his book about Sarah Palin — right next door to her house in Alaska.
Ms. Palin posted photos of Mr. McGinniss standing on his deck overlooking her property on her Facebook page late last night.
Mr. McGinniss, who has written about Ms. Palin before for Portfolio, is not the only writer poking around Wasilla however. "...apartments for Mr. Palin or the Palins’ older children (Bristol Palin, 19, has said, however, that she is living on her own with Tripp and paying her own bills with the help of handsome speaking fees) and a well-appointed office for Ms. Palin."
Don't forget that Discovery will have their cameras and crews in the area, also, too. It will be a long cool summer. One can only hope that Levi gets some work for his hockey 'shore' boys. I would love to see Snookie pay a visit.
>>Oh yeah, "MY Department of Resources"??? The over-huge ego strikes again.<<

i swear it sounds like some amateur erotic story, I put on my tank top and shorts and went outside to mow the lawn and the naughty neighbor next door peered from his rental house.
ReplyDeleteAll the male conservatives are fanticizing about palin in her tank top and shorts.
ReplyDeleteI am anon @ 7:16, and I dislike SP as much as the next, I was not threatening anything! I just hope Joe takes care up there, her fans are becoming as rabid as she is. I would put nothing past them.
ReplyDeleteHow does one invade the privacy of a media whore?
ReplyDeletetwo if by sea, 11:56 AM has posted a great aerial photo showing just isolated and alone poor Bristol was in the big bad woods, LOL.
ReplyDeleteI am guessing that journalists staked out that Best Western, and with a good telescope or telephoto lens, they could also see Russia, or Palin Palace. For that matter, anyone could rent a boat or hire a helicopter and get the same pictures. But this really pushed Sarah over the edge.
To built that big hulking monstrosity next to the little red house is the product of no building cods. No wonder the owner is p*ssed, and rented to Joe. I hope that he writes a best seller!

ReplyDeleteJoe,
I doubt you have the b...s to survive even two months in Alaska, without whimpering back to the city life. Alaskans don't take kindly to intrusion of privacy
**************
Hahahahah...you don't have the BALLS to write Balls! 2 mos in Wasilly?? Lets set across the way,uh high way...there is Cheapo's nice mex restaurant, Best western a stones throw away, and if Joe doesn't want to field dress a moose in his front yard, b/c they run all over the strip mall/highway there (yuk,yuk) there's always sarah's favorite standby Taco bell for a crunchwrap supreme...what do you mean he couldn't survive 2 mos? I think you have NO STONES!!!!
Joe oughta just push her right over the edge & hire Wooten as his bodyguard while in town.
ReplyDeleteCan you IMAGINE??? She might just self-combust!
Maybe Joe bought the house> Maybe he bought the mortgage on Sarah's shacks.
ReplyDeleteJoe used to live next door to a friend of mine in my town.
Prediction: When Joe publishes his book, EVERYONE reading this blog will feel (at least a little) sorry for Sarah!!!!!
Sarah: What are you afraid of??? If you have done nothing wrong, you should have absolutely NOTHING to be AFRAID of!!!!
Don't you think it is a bit creepy that out of the whole state of Alaska he rents a house next door. I'm not a Palin supporter but do live in Alaska and I think it is creepy and strange
ReplyDeleteWhy is it creepy, according to Bristol in her testimony they live in a remote area out in the woods. Also, Too, beck and palin thought it was great that people showed up to town hall meetings where the President was, with guns, this guy just has a pen. She is the biggest whiner I have ever seen, look how long she dragged out the fake outrage with David Letterman, I guess she will try to drag this out all summer. She is going on Beck tomorrow, will she be wearing her tank top, shorts, and have Trig on her back? She is already accusing this guy of being a pedofile peeping tom. I would have a video camera on me at all times if I were Joe. Isn't he just Joe the writer, just another american?
ReplyDeletewhat about Joe's freedoms that we so love in Alaska? Doesn't he have the freedom to rent any damn house he wants to? Maybe the owner was just getting back at the Palins for working on their snow machines and pick up trucks in their front lawn. Has he actually done anything wrong?
ReplyDeleteIsn't this the same woman who on the campaign trail greeted two male staffers while she wore only a towel? And now, Mrs-I'm-in-my-shorts-and-tank-top, is whining about being "peered at"? Sounds like she's thrilled by the attention and the opportunity to tell the world what she's wearing and how she's suffering.
ReplyDeleteWhy does she always have to bring sex into any situation? About herself and her daughters?
The only downside I can see is that Joe McGuiness will now have another chapter to his long over due book...this one about his summer of crazy next door to the palins.
ReplyDeleteAnd the thought of a bbq at Joes with all of the Alaskan bloggers would be a hoot! pictures please!!! Maybe Rachel could do a live spot.
What I did on my summer vacation.
ReplyDeleteJoe is not a photographer. She needs to worry about satellites and Fox, they could wire her place so they can watch her. Helicopters and anyone with a high power lens. Joe is a writer and he is serious about his work.
ReplyDeleteSP is not the only person to have neighbors that can view their property and house. We have an active review board and building guides. You can't block a neighbors view is one of the rules here. Sarah lives in a borough in the the most densely populated part of Alaska, Anchorage Metro.
Hope that there is a shot of the very pretty backs of her legs as she bends over in short short and does her gardening!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it true that she has slandered and defamed Joe's character in her little rant?
ReplyDeleteI don't know how far over the line she's gone, but it certainly looks like something one cannot do without some repercussions.
It'll be interesting to hear about McGinniss' reaction in the future. I'd be seriously angry if I were him.
Well, if someone built a monstrosity of a house with a television studio and airplane hangar 15 feet away from My House, I'd be pissed too. The next door neighbor probably wanted a little payback. bt
ReplyDeleteThere's always room for Joe, next to the mashed potatoes.
ReplyDeleteI hope Joe wears a Speedo.

ReplyDeleteThat's a typical know-nothing Palinbot comment if ever there was one.
Joe McGinniss spent months in Alaska in the late 1970s, travelling all over the state. He visited all of the major cities, many of the small towns, and even took a good long hike through the Brooks Range.
He returned recently to Alaska, too, although Sarah Palin made no mention of THAT in yesterday's Facebook rant.
November 1, 2009 New York Daily News: Joe McGinniss recently spent three weeks in Palin's town in Wasilla, Alaska.
"I stopped by her house," says McGinniss, who brought along a copy of his 1980 book, "Going to Extremes," about his adventures in Alaska. "Her son Track answered the door, [just back from Iraq]. We had a pleasant chat. He said he'd give her the book."
McGinniss was struck by the size of the construction on the lot the Palins have bought next to their present home.
"They're building another house and an airplane hangar," he says. "It's like a summer White House in the making. Just based on the size of the compound, I'd say Sarah and Todd are staying together."
As for reports of infidelity, he says, "I'm not intending to write a salacious book about Sarah Palin's sex life. But if it's true, I'll find out."
Please! Somebody who knows how to make You Tube videos needs to make one from the movie Aliens, where the Marines say Joe is just 15 feet away, then one of them says "Wait a minute, that's inside the room, what the hell?" or words to that effect.
ReplyDeleteThen, they would have to show Joe crawling in the roof space.
It would be classic!!
Joe, if you want to drool over the Palin women, buy Harper's Bazaar like the rest of the conservatives!
ReplyDeleteF-ck all you idiot Liberals
ReplyDeletePalin the Pedophile. Think about it...
