Never ones to pass up a free hand out, Todd and Sarah Palin on list of claimants to Exxon Valdex spill fund.

"Look purse carrier, you better come up with some new ways we can get some cash, and I mean right now!"
Courtesy of Alaska Dispatch:  

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and her husband, Todd, are among 947 claimants qualified for a piece of about $1 million in remaining settlement funds from the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill in the waters of Prince William Sound. 

The Palins are claimants No. 655 and 656. How much of a claim they may be due is unknown. 

Their place on that list is colored by the former governor's assertions in the 2009 book "Going Rogue: An American Life" that her administration helped those impacted by one of the country's worst environmental disasters. 

In 2009, a lawyer for the Exxon Valdez plaintiffs told Reuters that the former governor's claims of aid were mostly "cockamamie bullshit." 

That lawyer, Dave Oesting, remains lead attorney for Exxon Valdez plaintiffs, and may soon find Palin among those claimants who come calling to collect.

You know there are people who really suffered, or lost their livelihoods completely, due to that spill. The Palins are not among those people.

The fact that this millionaire couple's name is on this list is indefensible.

It will ultimately not really be that muhc money, and it just reinforces what Alaskans have known about the mall along. They are NOTHING but lowlife grifters.

    Why is this payout happening now? Is the legal system THAT backed up?

    Back then, Todd and Sarah wouldve lost a lot with the spill. Todd was Just starting to work at BP and fishing was still a huge part of income.
    These days, Todd lets friends and student fish since he doesn't need the money and others do.

      Total Bullshit on every count. First of all try looking at a map and look at where the ALASKA PENINSULA is, or do you perhaps think that spill took the same path as the magic bullet. And secondly Todd has no friends anymore and he certainly doesn't know any freekin' "students"

      You are so full of shit. First, Bristol Bay isn't covered by the settlement. Second, the grifters take other people's money; they don't work. Every political talking point that the Tundra Tart mutters would be against lawsuits against companies like Exxon and want less regulation of companies. If that us the case, why does she have her greedy hand out?

      Gina: what are your thoughts on the recent, precipitous downturn of posts at C4P? have they all emigrated to another site?

      Lurking there over the years, I have become fond of them, it's like watching the koi in my uncle's fishpond. Or the travelers at a bus station or airport.

      Fascinating back-stories become evident after thoughtful observance; and my questions about "who could possibly endorse such a candidate as SP" are, in a sense, answered. Sadly, the answer seems to be: Somebody not like me.

      And that is a good working definition of prejudice.

      And yet, I feel that the American people were betrayed when a person of such limited intelligence and attributes was placed in nomination for the second highest office in the land. I can still remember that sensation of the hairs on my neck raising up as she gave her acceptance speech in 2008.

      Any thoughts?

      These people are really really strange...2 of the most beautiful people in the WORLD? Really? On what planet and why on Earth do they think this? Do they just ignore that Todd Palin is a pimp? And they just ignore that what comes out of Sarah Palin's mouth most of the time is hate? Even if you admire these people, really I can't see idolizing them like this. It's downright odd.

    9. Why did I KNOW those were the shorts the foul-smelling grifter would be wearing?

      And if her head gets any bigger, it will pop and don't you know that will be some foul shit flying everywhere! Yuck.

      I made it through almost 2 minutes of the video. That's all I could manage without throwing up. Todd still has his no-nuts girly voice going on, and you could tell that Sarah's speed was starting to kick in outside in the hot sun, talking 'bout how Todd enjoys "God's green earth" when he's doing his extreme sports. Funny, I thought he rode a fucking snow machine in the snow. Sarah's an idiot. I'll bet it took 5 takes for her to just fuck it up that little.

      Pseudo-celebs soaking up some adoration from a bunch of nobodies, trying to grift $$$ from a corporate sponsor. Nothing new there. If those folks there don't hate her by the end of the weekend, they just don't know her well enough yet. Give 'em a couple of days. It doesn't take very long to see right through that den of thieves.

      I'll bet they could smell her funk under that shade canopy. They probably think something died out there in the desert, but it's just Baldy, stinking up the joint.

      I think the Palins should really be checked out as to the guidelines for them to receive the annual Permanent Dividend checks from the State of Alaska for all of them.

      They are out of state so often - proof should be obtained for their travels and verification they were in Alaska when they indicate their being so. We know that Gov Parnell would never bring this matter up, but perhaps the citizens of Alaska should call for an investigation!

      It has already been proven that Sarah is unethical (Alaska Legislature!) even though she denied it on the campaign trail w/McCain. ("Game Change" brought it up though!)

      We know the Palins have worked the system to their advantage here in Alaska and it's time they be stopped.

      The oil spill too - give me a friggin' break!!

      They need to have their asses nailed - investigations are in order.

      The only way they DIDN't Get the PFD is if they didn't reside in AK enough months! Alaska is strict on that.
      So MS Alaska, if she didn't get it , b/c she didn't reside in AK enough months that is the only flippin' way b/c they are freeloading grifters all the fuckin way!
      So assface #2 (Krusty) (assface #1 is Hannity) could possibility be right. But its not like she would have us to believe...b/c they have some altruistic motive....its b/c they didn't meet the residency standards...and only THAT!
      I hope those lawyers pull her skank ass into court and make her testify! They KNOW she is a grifter, and her stupid lawyer has nothing on a KOCHSucker lawyer. Love to see Sarita on the stand.

    Where the Palin's living in PWS or held property during the oil spill that was directly impacted? No.

    So how in the world did their name get on this plaintiff list? Isn't that filing a fraudulent claim?

    You know I have friends and neighbors who lived through the spill and who have since passed away. They never were made "good".

    That the Palin's have made such a claim; especially in the face of the state's non-action in the EVOS Re-opener clause litigation is beyond insulting.

    I have a couple friends on this list. I asked the husband about it yesterday. He laughed and said he was never going to bother to collect. His claim was for $18, and his wife's (who was his crew) was for $2. He also had claims for other fisheries worth much more that he has collected on.

    While the Palin's set net fishery in Bristol Bay can not be the source of this claim, it's possible that it's from halibut fishing. Didn't Sarah claim they were commercial halibut fishermen in that episode of SP Alaska where she and Bristol were clubbing halibut?

It cut the original $2.5 billion in damages awards to $500 million. People got much less compensation than they were entitled to. And, Sarah couldn't remember it-- and it had just happened earlier that year. Now, she remembers.

    Sarah was governor when this final settlement was worked out. Shouldn't she have waived any payment to herself or her family? Surely she knew about the negotiations and final agreement as it was happening. Did she influence anyone so that her husband's little fishing hole would qualify for

    NOT MUCH TO SEE HERE FOLKS.

    Sarah and Todd, getting a government check. Again. Also too. Just like "Farmer" Joe Miller, and not a few others just like them. The scandal is not that the Palin's got a little money, the scandal is that Exxon screwed the residents, the ecology and the damage is still there.

    How Bristol bay fishermen and others elsewhere not directly oiled by the Exxon Valdez still got paid was explained in the Anchorage Daily News by their former expert reporter Wesley Loy. In 2009.

    "Posted by The Highliner

    Posted: February 21, 2009 - 7:39 pm

    Latest Exxon payout includes Bristol Bay

    Lawyers overseeing money collected from the Exxon Valdez oil spill are asking a federal judge to approve more payments to a range of commercial fishermen including Bristol Bay salmon gillnetters."

    http://community.adn.com/adn/node/138283

    Oh and

    "The Highliner notes some interesting names on the list, to wit:

    Sarah Palin, $227.88
    Todd Palin, $307.35"

    Todd fishes Nushagak Bay IIRC and wiki says

    "Nushagak Bay is a large estuary covering over 100 km2 in southwest part of the U.S. state of Alaska. It opens to Bristol Bay"

    Spilled oil from a 55-gallon oil drum that she used to snorted coke off of doesn't fit the bill of an oil spill.

    Also the fishing license that toad has because of his limited native heritage is suppose to be used by him only or he has to be there when in use. Am missing something?

    I thought fishing licenses were in short supply. There are ak natives who really need a fishing license to feed their family and make a little money.

      Real Alaskans must envy the way former, half-term Gov. Sarah Palin hunts on her TV reality show, "Sarah Palin's Alaska.'' All real Alaskans, excepting the comparative few who still live in rural Alaska, scrimp and save and finagle to try to find a way to make work the economics of hunting in the 49th state. Alaska is the most expensive place in America to hunt big game, which makes hunting complicated for the poor and average folk.

      Not so for Palin. When she goes to the freezer and finds it low on vittles, she decides to take "a couple of days'' to fly from Wasilla to the Brooks Range to shoot a caribou. Most Alaskans would spend a couple of days just driving from Wasilla or Anchorage to Deadhorse on the Dalton Highway, a road distance of about 850 miles, to save money to be able to afford a charter flight back into the country.

      Not Palin. She charters a twin-engine DeHavilland Dash, a much more comfortable way to travel, to the tune of more than $35,000.

      Palin appears to have spent a minimum of $42,400 on her above-the-Arctic Circle caribou hunt. That's the figure a Hollywood website more into movie-making logistics than hunting calculated for transportation and lodging after talking to the businesses that provides those services.

      Read the story and you'll notice the $42,400 doesn't factor in any gear -- and Alaska's ex-governor, a well-known clothes horse, clearly got a spiffy new wardrobe for her show.

    Just took a wade into the pee pond (relax, fumigated after) $carah and the Toad @ Luke Oil event - appearance - yeee ow horribly dressed in stretched out , old oversized, skinnyravensportstee and athletic shorts. Rat's nest disheveled hair. But the Obamas live rent free in her head, as the claw hands had the same shade of grey polish that Michele Obama stunningly wore to coordinate with that beautiful rose and grey dress to the DNC. $carah matched it to the T-shirt.
    What an imbecile $carah is.

    Gryphen said, "The fact that this millionaire couple's name is on this list is indefensible."

    If they are on the list because of their Bristol Bay fishing, I agree with you. But just because they are millionaires is no reason for them to be kept from collecting if they were involved in a fishery that wa harmed by the spill. That could be a fishery that was cancelled because of where the oil went and quality was being protected, or one that was damaged so that it was reduced or closed such as PWS herring, or one in which the market lost price as the fishery and fish were suspect in the customers eyes so they quit buying them. This happened another tine in the 80's too when a European man died from botulism after eating a can of pink salmon. That incident caused pink salmon prices to tumble for years. The Exxon spill caused the same thing to happen.

    In one of the most appalling cases of greed to come out of the spill, set netters in the Moser/Olga Bay area of Kodiak were the only people who got to fish salmon on Kodiak that year. The seiners who usually catch a large chunk of the salmon before they get to Moser or Olga Bays weren't allowed to fish. As a result The setnetters there had banner years. Some made many time what they normally make because they caught so many fish. Then they turned around and sued because the spill caused the price to drop. So they sued because the price dropped on fish they would never have caught if not for the spill.

    I despise the Palins, but they are not the only greedy people in the world by a long shot. And just because they are who they are is no reason to keep them from collecting what they are legally entitled to.

      I agree with you. Their name was likely put on the list over 20 years ago.

      And I would bet they won't collect. It's likely a very tiny amount and she would look like a complete dipshit (typical look for her) if they did.

    Being related to a sociopath, I am very aware that they are snake charmers....they have this amazing ability to get some people to believe anything that comes out of their mouths....that combined with the "business" that the Palin's seem to be connected with i.e. the dirty under world of people's sexual preferences ...one can only imagine what sort of hold they have on a lot of people.

    Speaking as a live long Alaskan, I know that there are a lot of good people that live here, but I also know that there are a lot of "end-of-the roaders" that end up in Alaska to escape society and the law including sex offenders and child molesters. I would guess that there were even some in Bristol Bay as well as Wassilla when Sarah and Todd were growing up. Just sayin, but it sounds like there are a lot of people that have things to hide.

    She is named as a claimant, but yet couldn't remember a Supreme Court Case ??? Does she not remember in February 2008 just months before she was tapped as VP, that the SUPREME COURT heard the appeals from Exxon in Baker v. Exxon??? Here is a case she was supposedly up close and personal with (according to her rag of a book) and when asked to name a supreme court case she couldn't recall this one...
