Palin is making the Teabaggers jump through hoops with the promise she MIGHT show up on Saturday.

Courtesy of the Des Moines Register:

Christine O’Donnell is off the guest list – again – and Sarah Palin is a “maybe.” 

In the latest episode in the drama over the speaking lineup for Saturday’s Tea Party of America rally in Iowa, organizer Ken Crow said Palin’s staff called this morning to say Palin’s appearance at the rally was “on hold” until three changes were made. 

“They said, ‘Ken, can you take care of bing, bing, bing’ and I said, ‘Yessir, I will’ and I did,” Crow, an Indianola Republican told The Des Moines Register. 

“Now I’m waiting to hear back.” Crow said two of the requests were logistical details: Email a copy of the program today, and address concerns about back-stage security and who will be allowed in that area. 

Asked about the third request, Crow said: “Can I let that remain private for now?” 

Meanwhile, Crow telephoned staff for O’Donnell, a Delaware Republican who ran for the U.S. Senate, to say she can’t speak at Saturday’s event. 

“We’re all friends and she’s not coming,” he said, referring to O’Donnell.

Five points to the person who correctly guesses which THIRD change had to be made. And the first two don't count.

Oh yeah Christine, that was ALL about you baby.

Personally I am disgusted with these baggers for letting Palin treat them like her own personal handbag carriers and ass-wipers.  I mean hell THAT'S Tawd's job!

I hope that somebody takes that Mudflats post and e-mails it to Ken Crow, you know if you had access to his e-mail address, you know like this one right here for instance: ken@teapartyofamerica.org.

Not that I'm suggesting that anybody do that, after all Ken has so much on his plate already.

But if it were ME I would certainly like to know what kind of lunatic was making me look like an idiot in front of the press.

    Quitter, how are you going to walk back your previous statement to the rally organizers: "This is your event and you can put anybody up there you want.” I'm betting your spin will involve victimhood and blaming others. Yep, unaccountablity, dithering, and amateur hour. Those are the qualities that define you.

    The Sarah Palin and Christine O’Donnell Tea Party Rally Is A Mess

    In a momentous meeting of female Tea Party power, Sarah Palin and Christine O’Donnell were scheduled to appear together at a “Restoring America” Tea Party rally this weekend outside Des Moines, Iowa. But after O’Donnell was invited, dis-invited, and then re-invited, Sarah Palin is now deciding that she might just not want to go either. The occasion, other than being a nice time for the two like-minded ladies to catch up, was being watched closely for signs that Palin might be building a presidential campaign. If that’s the case, she’s off to a rocky start, as the rally seems to be turning into quite the fiasco. Those of you who have not yet booked your tickets to Des Moines for the weekend are probably best holding off.

    The original plan was to have O’Donnell — who has been busy of late doing publicity for her book —warm the stage for headliner Mama Grizzly. “We’re just kind of loading up the bases, aren’t we,” said Ken Crow, president of the Tea Party of America and one of the event’s organizers, at the time. Perhaps the load was a bit too much.

    Late in the afternoon yesterday, things started to get weird when word got out that O’Donnell had been disinvited. O’Donnell was initially gracious on twitter, saying only that “things changed on their end” and that she still wished “them the best with this important event.” Rally organizers were less clear. Crow told the Wall Street Journal that the whole thing was just a mistake. ”I assumed there was an open slot and there wasn’t,” he said. Meanwhile, Tea Party of America’s cofounder, Charlie Gruschow was busy telling people that it was not a mistake, but rather a strategic decision. “We decided not to have her speak,” he said, “we felt it was in the best interest of the movement.” Why remained unclear, but for sure she had been dropped.

    Then, this morning, after waking up to an inbox full of complaints, event organizers decided to re-invite O’Donnell. “We panicked,” said Crow. “We’re making room for her.” O’Donnell “humbly re-accepted their re-invitation,” and, bumps behind, all things seemed to be back on track.

    Sarah Palin isn’t feeling quite as open minded about her friend’s invitation mix-up, though, and this morning announced that her appearance was “no longer confirmed” as a result of “continual lying” from event organizers. As the Wall Street Journal today points out, this sort of last minute change is nothing new for Palin. And certainly, the organization of the event has been muddled. This is, however, a rather high-profile event for her to be backing out of, especially considering that her (maybe) backing out makes a further mess of an event that, O’Donnell happily back on board, could have gone on otherwise successfully.

    According to the Journal, she seems to be keeping her options open: “Ms. Palin may still hold an event Saturday, the person said, though she has no firm plans. It’s also possible she could still attend the Indianola tea party rally, the person said.” For fans and followers who had made prior arrangements to be in Des Moines for the rally, Palin is also scheduled to appear at an event sponsored by the group Conservatives4Palin on Friday. In case you’re not already feeling too whiplashed by the whole weekend, that is.

    The President called her out this morning in his comments urging Congress to pass the federal higway bill.

    He said, "there will be no more Bridges to Nowhere," not during his administration as he urged reorganization of how funds for projects are appropriated.

    President has called a joint session of Congress for sep07 to address his JOBS PLAN....which is the night of the Republican debate.
    Republican debate is misnomer, since it appears what they are most intent on is gang bashing Obama.

    I suspect Palin doesn't want to miss an opportunity to openly and publically attack the President.
    After all bridge to nowhere is an appropriate metaphor for Her Ugliness.

    From the comments at C4P re this latest kerfuffle at the Teabagger Party, that proves beyond ALL doubt that Mrs. Palin is NOT a diva. I repeat, NOT A DIVA!
    (One thing: this MUST be a parody! It MUST! I cannot believe anyone could write this with a straight face.) Here goes:
    ---------------------------------
    Conspiracy rumor!!!!!!

    Who Is to Blame? Obama had one of his insiders to act the part of one of Sarah Palin's close associates, had her Call the press in order to start this rumor. Hoping for confusion To Cause Sarah to back out.Secret inside information(Whisper it)reveals that it was Hillary Clinton who made the call. Supposedly Obama is going through extreme depression and fear at the thought of Sarah Palin debating him. He's not even being able to sleep at night. It has gotten so bad that Obama and his wife no longer even traveled together. That is why Michelle had to take a separate plane. The lame stream media was in cahoots with Obama to make this happen. But Sarah Palin was onto them from the get-go.

    That's why she's still going to speak at this meeting on Saturday!

    Sarah Palin Won’t Allow The Iowa Tea Party To See Other Women

    Sarah Palin Pulls Diva Move On Tea Party and O’Donnell

    This is the story of the on-again off-again invite to Christine I-am-not-copying-you-Sarah-O’Donnell to warm up for Sarah Palin at a Tea Party of America rally in Iowa this Saturday. Right now, the Tea Party world waits with bated breath to see if Sarah Palin will grace them with her presence after they spent 100,000 dollars to get her to their rally this September 3.

    But they should have known better than to invite Christine O’Donnell to warm up for the Queen of the Tea Party.

    MSNBC just reported in First Read:

    Tea Party of America President Ken Crow told NBC News, “I had to cancel Ms. O’Donnell” after a conversation with Sarah Palin aides — and is now hopeful Palin will attend the Saturday rally in Indianola.

    He was told by Palin’s team that he’d have a final answer shortly.

    This comes after failed Delaware Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell was in, then out, then back in, and now indefinitely out. And Palin was in, then “on hold.”

    The group has spent about $100,000 on the event for Palin and are thus waiting “with baited breath” for an answer. An official press release will come out after Palin people give Crow final word.

    NBC News has not received comment from Palin’s team so far.

    See, first Sarah Palin was supposed to speak at the Tea Party of America rally in Iowa on Sept 3. Then they invited Christine O’Donnell. Here’s where the Palin Playbook comes in handy. While the Palin people were officially telling the Tea Party folks that they could invite anyone they wanted to the rally, suddenly the Tea Party organizers were flooded with complaints about Christine O’Donnell as the warm up act for Palin. So then they had to disinvite O’Donnell, sort of like how Dancing with the Stars got gamed when Bristol Palin was on.

    This is the modus operandi of the Palinistas, who know how to read their Queen’s dictates almost as well as her daughter Bristol does. In late June, Bristol was launched into the media fray to accuse Bachmann of stealing Palin’s look, while Palin coyly told the media that she and Bachmann were “friends”.

    The Des Moines Register reported:

    Maybe 20 emails criticizing O’Donnell bombed the in-boxes of Crow and Charlie Gruschow, the other co-founder of the Tea Party of America and a West Des Moines resident. The emails came from people in Illinois and Texas and elsewhere who said they’re coming to the rally – and they didn’t want O’Donnell there.

    “Charlie and I looked at each other and went, ‘Oh, crap,’” Crow told the Register.

    …..

    There was some speculation that Palin was pulling a diva act and didn’t want to share the stage with another well-known conservative woman, but Crow said the responsibility for the whiplash-like dust-up lands solely on himself and Gruschow.

    Of course they were taking the heat then. That’s what good organizers do for their star speakers.

    But then they chose to reinvite poor Christine, after she tweeted, “Was honored to be asked to speak at Iowa event Saturday, changed my flight to make it work… We were told things changed on their end, and I truly wish them the best with this important event.”

    And now Palin has announced that she might not show up at all. So Christine is out again. They had to uninvite the reinvite. The Tea Party organizer has now admitted, “I had to cancel Ms. O’Donnell” after a conversation with Sarah Palin aides –”

    I’ll bet he did. This is, after all, the same woman who spent her short two and a half years in the Governor’s office getting her administration to take vengeance on people she felt had wronged her and writing fake letters to the editor in support of her. Yes, this is high school Mean Girl 101.

    There can only be one star in the room when Sarah Palin is around. And that star is Sarah Palin.

    This is a lesson the Tea Party is learning the hard way. Perhaps they are also pondering the meaning of “fiscal conservative” as they dig their nails into their hands watching the 100,000 dollars they spent to get Sarah Palin to show up teeter on the precarious cliff of her ego. Or wondering about all of the work they put into wooing her to show up. Perhaps they should have checked her contract for diva status.

    When Sarah Palin talks about being an advocate for “strong conservative women” she means she’s an advocate for herself. Not those other strong conservative women, like Christine O’Donnell. Poor Christine. All Christine ever wanted was to grift some living expenses and get a TV show to go along with her book. And the GOP wonders why most American women don’t buy the “conservative feminist” narrative. Go figure.

    If you’re questioning why Sarah Palin hasn’t decided yet if she will show up now that poor Christine O’Donnell has been duly humiliated twice, had to reschedule her flights to accommodate Palin’s ego and is now sitting in the corner crying over “Troublemaker: I Coulda Been A Rogue”, wonder no more.

    Sarah Palin does not forgive; she nurses grudges and coddles her ever-present persecution complex like the tender baby it is. Sarah Palin even made a fake Facebook account to “like” herself — that’s the sort of fragile ego the Tea Party messed with when they invited her doppleganger to open for her. They should have known they weren’t allowed to play with other women. Doesn’t this just sorta make you want to vote for Palin for President? Isn’t thin-skinned spitefulness a quality we all want in a leader? Gosh, think of the international debacles and red button mishaps!

    Sarah Pain will make the Tea Party organizers pay for this. They will twist in the wind, sucking up the stale air of a Palin burp in desperate hopes that she will like them again. She asked for three changes to be made, but we’re not allowed to know the third one. Hmmm….Whatever could it be? The Tea Party has complied and now they’re just waiting to see if she shows.The Tea Party organizer, referring to O’Donnell, said, “We’re all friends and she’s not coming.” There’s that word “friend” again. I’m not sure it means the same thing in Palin land as it does elsewhere.

    Will she or won’t she? Aw, heck, Tea Party – what’s another 100,000 dollars? You got off easy. Just ask the RNC, Karen Handel or Alaska. As for Sarah Palin punishing Christine O’Donnell for copying her, Sarah Palin needs to realize that she is nothing new. Bouffant-haired conservative women getting rich by selling Big Daddy’s patriarchy to the masses via Jesus is an old racket. Almost as old as prostitution.

    In Hillsville, Virginia, we have the Labor-Day Flea Market every year on the Labor Day week-end which begins on Friday and lasts thru Monday. Hundreds of thousands attend every year, this is the 44th year of this event. There will be antiques galore and all kinds of treasures plus food, politicians and illegal stolen guns sold. There is always a large police presence checking out the guns and boot-leg items sold.

    See you there if you come on down to good ole Virginia.

    Dear Abby,

    I spent my rent and food money to fly from Hawaii to Iowa to hear Sarah announce she is running for President.

    This on/off/on/off/on again stuff makes me wonder if I did the right thing.

    Abby, if she is not there... should I jump off a bridge?

    Damn it, Gryphen, ENOUGH already!!! Why are you ALWAYS criticizing the Screechy Wretch(tm)??

    Dont you understand, this desiccated shrew just might become the next president of the United States???? And she is entitled to the deference and respect you would give ANY OTHER VIABLE PRESIDENTIAL CONTENDER such as Rick "Google me!!" Santorum, Buddy Romero or Romeo, (something like that), Baby Doc Ron Paul and Lady Gaga!! (oops, strike "Lady Gaga" from that sentence. I was just informed that she is no longer considered a viable candidate for 2012, at this time) Have I made myself clear???

    Now, as far as Granny Lulu making an appearance in Iowa on Saturday: what part of "SHE'S A GOD DAMN MAVERICK, YO!" don't you understand??? Look up "maverick", if you're not sure what it means but I GUARANTEE YOU it gives her permission to go where she wants, when she wants and to cancel, un-cancel, re-cancel and un-un-cancel whenever the god damn whim strikes her!!! Is that clear?

    This ceaseless mocking of The Gristly Mama has got to stop. She will do what she wants to do without any regard for any other person on the planet and - not in spite of but - BECAUSE of her limitless maverickosity this thin-skinned, grifting know-nothing is BELOVED by HUNDREDS, if not THOUSANDS of people across this great nation of ours!

    Get with the program, man!!

    RUN, LULU, RUN!!!!!

    What’s going on now

    The former governor-turned-media darling-turned-attention whore has done every single thing that someone who is running for president would do while finding a way to get upset that people are asking her whether or not she’s running for president. Basically she’s like a girl at a bar who gets drunk, lets you take her home, takes off her clothes and throws you a condom then gets mad that you have the audacity to assume that you’re going to have sex.

    Her newest adventure includes attending events in Iowa and New Hampshire next week. You know, because she really digs corn and whatever New Hampshire is famous for. It has nothing to do with the fact that those are the first two primary states and that no Republican has ever won the nomination without winning at least one of them.

    It seems pretty likely that she will announce in the next week or so. The only thing that I think would keep her from running would be if internal polls show that she is even further behind than the national polls are showing right now—tied for a distant third. I’m sure she’s nervous that running and losing (Especially if she gets trounced) would be a huge hit to her credibility, but I think that there is no way she can keep up her current status as a leader in the conservative movement for another four years (Or eight if a Republican beats Obama).

    I’m saying she’s going to run.


    What will happen the day she announces

    I don’t know when or where she will announce, but I know that Wolf Blitzer will announce it for CNN. It just seems like the breaking news will come out of his mouth. I can just feel it.

    “After a television show, a mystery bus tour around the nation’s most historic locations, and almost three years of speculation, Sarah Palin, the former governor of Alaska and Tea Party darling, is running for president.”

    It feels right, doesn’t it?

    That day, every news channel will run five-minute biographies on a constant loop detailing all over her triumphs and gaffs and using a lot of still images of her waving to a crowd. If you watch the news for one hour you will hear her “Hockey mom/Pitbull” line from the 2004 GOP convention at least seven times.

    The announcement itself will involve a lot of talk about...

    One week after the announcement

    After a couple days she will sit down with Sean Hannity and do a one-on-one interview that will be edited to make look like she knew the names of all the world leaders we have good relationships with and which country they represent.

    CNN and MSNBC will have to hire a special reporter just to cover Palin and beg her six times a day if she’ll do an interview on their network. She will deflect the question when on camera and pass it off to her press secretary who will chide the news networks for crowding the governor and only allow an interview if the questions can be pre-screened. Rather than talk about how ridiculous that is, the news organizations will simply say that this “adds to the Palin mystique” and then go on covering her like she’s a legit candidate.


    One month after the announcement

    Palin will eventually have to go to a debate and try to explain why she is better than the rest of the candidates. Anytime one of the other candidates attacks her, she will invoke Ronald Reagan and say that we shouldn’t be trying to trash each other. I don’t think it will happen, but this is where Ron Paul should say “I knew Ron Regan, I was friends with Ron Regan, and Governor Palin, you’re no Ron Reagan.” If he did, it would start a war among the craziest fan bases and would present another opportunity for the media to spend 48 hours talking about Ron Paul being relevant.

    What is more likely is that they will talk about how exposed Palin looked on stage. How she ducked too many questions and couldn’t seem to handle the pressure of the big stage. She will immediately fire back that she took the high road and that she stood by her principles not to bash other republican candidates in a primary because in the end the most important thing is that someone defeats Obama.

    She will then go on the attack against the other republican candidates.

    Six months after announcing

    Sarah’s campaign is running on fumes at this point. After coming in second to Rick Perry in the Iowa Caucuses, she gets absolutely demolished in New Hampshire by Perry and Romney. After trying to tack right for much of the primaries, Romney sticks goes back to his more moderate roots and offers himself as the one candidate who can actually beat Obama and responds to everything that Perry and Palin say by just rolling his eyes and saying “you have GOT to be kidding me. We tried this with George Bush, that didn’t work. We can be conservatives without just bringing the same failed policies out and presenting them as new ideas.”

    Palin immediately jumps on him, calling him a fake republican and tweets “wat wud u expect from a Massachusetts elitist? We need REAL conservatives now.”

    She gets a little bit of traction when Michelle Bachman finally bows out of the race but after coming in second to Perry in South Carolina it becomes clear that she’s cooked. Before getting to the Florida primaries, she pens an essay on her Facebook account about how much she loves this country and how terrible it is that the media won’t give a woman a fair shake to become president. She brings up Hillary losing in 2004. Interviews with the Secretary of State mostly just involve her trying to hold back laughter when being compared to Palin.

    Every newscast has a “Is Sarah Palin getting ready to drop out of the race” lead and Sarah figures out a way to do the same thing with quitting her race for the White House as she did with starting it. She starts cutting staff members, talking about how important it is that someone defeats Obama and that she wants to do what’s best for the party. When reporters follow up by asking if that means she’s quitting, she immediately gets upset and says that she is in this race to win it and that she wouldn’t be running if she didn’t think she had a good chance to win.

    Then she will quit.

    Ok, I have an objective observation. If Mediainsider and the current Anon commenter can come up with ridculous scenarios, professing to be inner circle of informed, who knows how many other people feel compelled to lie for whatever reason.

    It seems it's the "in" thing to bash Sarah at all costs, regardless of truth. GRAIN OF SALT PEOPLE. If people TRULY thought Sarah was a threat and dangerous, they'd go ON TV. When you're on national tv, speaking your mind, you're protected by the masses essentially. If you "disappear" as many people in decades past have done when they confront other leaders and figures, the fact that you were IN PUBLIC basically helps you.

    This is why I do not trust Anon sources who remain on the DL. Too many hidden agendas. There's been so much lying that I trust no one anymore regarding ANY public figures.

That has to be anon, right? I know everyone is giving all glory and honor to mudflats right now, but that stuff is mostly just re-hash of what FB already said, she has a bad temper, is stupid, etc

    She said the "security concerns" were that SP wanted it in writing no signs would be allowed and anyone overheard "attacking my handicapped son" be escorted out at once. What that translates to me is.....she is scared to death someone really will bring signs saying "you called Trig a little shit" and so on.

  124. The movie I thought of during this mess was "All About Eve." Sarah does not want to be upstaged by her acolyte like Bette Davis was in the movie. She fears COD now because Christine has retained her natural beauty and Sarah has become a caricature of herself. There are a lot of good looking and charismatic women on the campaign trail. Even crazy-eyed Michele Bachmann is better put together, thanks to Marcus, who does have a good eye for fashion. I don't think COD has a mean bone in her body; she's just lazy and likes the attention. Sarah, OTOH, is another matter altogether.

    I recognized Crow’s voice because, while attending the Polk County GOP Summer Picnic on Saturday afternoon, I had been approached by Crow who was hoping to arrange a meeting with Texas Governor Rick Perry, a presidential candidate and one of the speakers at the event. Now, in the interest of full disclosure, I was at the event as a Perry volunteer, signing people up to receive additional information about the candidate. Crow, apparently not realizing that I was a nobody who has never even met Perry, let alone someone who has any sway whatsoever with his campaign (in fact, I’ve not endorsed any candidate and I was simply there as a favor to a friend), told me he wanted to meet with the Texas Governor and perhaps endorse him in the near future.

    “I love Sarah Palin,” Crow told me, “but I know for a fact she ain’t gonna run.”

    Now, many readers may consider the source less than credible, but consider: this guy runs an organization that has put up some pretty serious coin to bring Palin to Iowa for the “Restoring America Event.” Wouldn’t he have at least a little inside knowledge about her true intentions?

    What sealed it for me was listening to Crow’s interview with WHO Radio’s Simon Conway yesterday (Podcast here). In one exchange (18:30 of the Podcast), Conway told Crow, “you shouldn’t comment on [Palin running for President] Ken, because people will start reading between the lines and, you know, we’ve gotta make it clear we still don’t know if she’s gonna announce.”

    “That is true,” was Crow’s puzzling repsonse.

    In other words, Ken Crow and “Tea Party of America” are just using the hype of a potential Palin announcement to promote their event. Even the poll question on their site today is, “When do you think Sarah Palin will announce as a candidate for the Presidency?” Top answer (by far): “On Sept. 3rd at the [Restoring America] event.” But the reality is that they already know Sarah Palin “ain’t gonna run.”

    I have to hand to any of you who visit the C4P - those poor people. 10 minutes over there was enough for me but I did pick up this link about what happened or is happening in Iowa. FWIW ...

    "Palin’s concern arose, the aide said, when an O’Donnell aide suggested to event organizers that Palin wanted the Delawarean to share the stage with her."

    What a surprise, the DIVA doesn't share the stage with anyone! Especially a woman who is only 5 or 6 years younger than Palin but looks 20 year younger. LOL

    About that marathon (this is for Anon 2:42, who said: "You cannot complete a marathon in poor health. It takes preparation and dedication.")
    It is true that Palin ran the Humpy's Marathon in 2005, and she did reasonably well for a recreational runner, finishing in under four hours. But you are absolutely wrong to suggest that her accomplishment disproves the theory that she had or has an eating disorder and/or resulting mental-health problems.
    Many, many female athletes have struggled with eating disorders, including long-distance runners who are much more accomplished than Palin. Palin has always bragged way too much about her supposed athletic feats, by the way.

    Most anorexics and many bulimics do lots of running.That does not mean they are healthy.At the height of my bulimia during my 20's,IO weighed myself every hour and if I weighed even a fraction of an ounce more than the last hour I ran until the next weigh in.A good weigh in where I lost a fraction of a pound meant I only needed to run for 15 minutes.I could lose 20-30 pounds a month,running,binging,and puking.I am certain I would have put Palin to shame in a marathon,too,her running style was so awkward.

    Doc Yeager 08/31/2011 03:27 PM

    Who Is to Blame? Obama had one of his insiders to act the part of one of Sarah Palin's close associates, had her Call the press in order to start this rumor. Hoping for confusion To Cause Sarah to back out. Secret inside information(Whisper it)reveals that it was Hillary Clinton who made the call. Supposedly Obama is going through extreme depression and fear at the thought of Sarah Palin debating him. He's not even being able to sleep at night. It has gotten so bad that Obama and his wife no longer even traveled together. That is why Michelle had to take a separate plane. The lame stream media was in cahoots with Obama to make this happen. But Sarah Palin was onto them from the get-go.

    That's why she's still going to speak at this meeting on Saturday!

    One thing this does tell us is that she's still considering running. If she'd decided not to run, it wouldn't have been as big a deal, but if she does run, cancelling something like this could well end any chance she has. So, it was important enough to keep it on.

  169. Palin may have been a runner at one time but she wasn't doing anywhere near as much as she claimed to Runner's World. She talked to them prior to her interview about how she ran with Track in his stroller although she got caught with the lie and had her staff find her a running stroller. She also talked about how he loved hearing her sing when she ran! You tell me how much singing you can do when you run, not to mention the fact that Trig is also hard of hearing! This woman LIES about anything & everything! She wasn't even embarrassed about being caught in the lie according to Bailey's book, she just had to make it look good with the stroller to pretend she actually does run with him while he's in the stroller. There is NOTHING she won't lie about and NOTHING she won't do for attention and to propel her ambitions no matter who it hurts, even her children.

    It's called exercise bulimia, and it's not unknown among runners. Instead of vomiting or using laxatives after their binges, they run. It's healthier than either of those, but it's still extreme behavior.

    BTW, why Weight Watchers limits how many activity points you can get in a day in order to prevent dieters from becoming exercise bulimics.

    Here's an article about it:
    http://www.elle.com/Beauty/Health-Fitness/Exercise-Bulimia-How-Much-is-Too-Much

    The fact that Granny LuLu ran a marathon instead of a 5K is consistent with exercise bulimia, and it fits with the stories of her diet pills, etc.

    For that matter, the McCain people complained about her hygiene, which seems strange (how hard is it to take a shower and brush your teeth?) However, someone who is vomiting will have bad breath and skuzzy fingernails, and someone trying to sneak exercise in all the time may look and smell sweaty and disgusting during the day.

    If this is true, it is really sad, not only for Dear Granny, but also for her daughters and granddaughters. She's setting a terrible example.

    Thanks for your research much appreciated. We all know Sarah has hygiene problems but I don't think bulimia has much to do with Sarah going out in public with Bill Clinton type DNA stains on her business suit skirt attire when she crashed the White House Correspondence's after party or showing up at the Iowa State Fair in open toe shoes with fungus and dried up crud on her toes. I'm trying to keep her clean but she is a hard headed man. We take her out back and hose her down once a week and he fights us about that.
