    Once she gets her trademark this kind of thing will be stopped, or sued. (surely she signed the papers now)

    • bb- I don’t try to be really mean,but a person who has staked out a public persona,really has little expectation of privacy while in the public spotlight. I didn’t put either of the Palin’s in the public eye. They make all kinds of public statements and that makes them,for lack of a better cliche,targets for slings and arrows. Both have made really outrageous public statements.

  2. Bristol may have a career in diplomacy or something. I heard she just brokered her first actual treaty and she and rattlesnakes have a deal where neither side bites. Professional courtesy,I believe. Lab tests prove convincingly that Palin venom is much more toxic than run of the mill snake venom.Lasts longer, too.

  3. Marnie says:

    Now we know why Bristol needed to move out of Alaska. She wants to run for office and her mother is wildly unpopular in Alaska.

    Thanks Mom for soiling the nest for your daughter.

    This is an excellent (albeit long) article about Palin’s relationship with the media and how the media fails (and always has) to report the reality that is Sarah Palin:

    http://www.alaskadispatch.com/voices/medred/8665-sarah-palin-is-right-lamestream-media-needs-help-with-the-truth

    • North of the Range says:

      Thanks, OMG. Yes, Medred got it, in a better-late-than-never sort of way. The close was my favorite:

      “‘We’re so far from being able to trust what so many of the mainstream media personalities, characters, feed the American public that it scares me for our country,’ [Palin said]. ‘What would give me great joy is what would become irrelevant is the misreporting that comes out of the mainstream media.’

      “So here’s an invitation to Sarah Palin: C’mon down. Alaska Dispatch is just south on the road from Wasilla. Help us make irrelevant that misreporting. The door at Dispatch is always open. Drop in anytime. Educate us. Show us the light because we’re still laboring under the impression that journalists are supposed to try to paint an accurate picture of the world. And when Alaska’s ex-governor does an interview (a rare enough thing in and of itself), and acts like a dunderhead, the true story isn’t in someone trying to sort out whatever the hell it was she was trying to say. The true story is that a potential Republican presidential candidate is making like a dunderhead.

      “Not to accuse the state’s half-term, ex-governor of actual dunderheadedness. We’re not into name calling. But we are into the idea that when dunderheadedness is displayed in public by people in positions of some political or societal importance, it is the responsibility of the media to point this out. That is what journalism is about.

      “But the door is open for Gov. Palin to c’mon in and change our minds. Ronald Reagan would at least have given it a shot.”

    We know (or are pretty sure we know) toddler Tripp travels with his Twinkle-Toes mother as she flits from appearance to appearance around the nation. I think it safe to say we assume he goes with her most of the time, at any rate — since we’ve not heard differently (and we have heard her say he was with her at various times and at various non-AK locations.)

    I think it also safe to say that Twinkle-Toes’ son’s also-toddler uncle does *not* travel with Twinkle-Toes’ mother or father as they go from mega-fee job to mega-fee job across the nation. Also-toddler uncle has medical and developmental needs that preclude such travel; he has medical and (especially) developmental therapies –including consistency and stability– that are essential and can’t be done haphazardly/as his parent’s schedule allows.

    So, my question is twofold:
    1) Who does Twinkle-Toes’ son stay with on the occasions when he doesn’t travel with her, and,
    2) Does anyone know who is raising Missy Quitty Pant’s youngest child — know who he is living with? With either set of grandparents? One of her (or Tawd’s) siblings? A nanny? And what ‘message’ does this non-present style of Palin-parenting send to other parents of children with Downs Syndrome or other mental disability…particularily when Missy QP was so all saintly-halo-ed as “the advocate/voice” for special needs children/families as she was VP running? beth.

      • beth says:

        And the rest of the time? I think I remember her saying (in some soft-ball fluff-terview) he liked to spend time with his friends at his cousin’s (?) farm every day — does he stay at the Wasilla house the rest of the time? Who is his caretaker when Papa and Mama Grizz are on the road? Any one know? b.

I wanted to ask him about tickets — it seems that two days before the event was officially announced, the $185 tickets already had been discounted by 50 percent. Was there not an, uh, onslaught of buyers? There were also reports, in my own newspaper, of tax records showing the organization had raised only $1,000 in 2008 and $2,204 in 2009. Did Pacheco really have the money to afford Palin?”………

    I unfortunately watched a video of an Anchorage women who appeared on Dr. Phil (I don’t know when)–but it will stay with me. A women who adopted 5 year old twins from a Russian orphanage is shown putting hot sauce in the kids mouth and putting the screaming child in a cold shower. The boy is 7 now and seems to get in trouble in school. Family has 6 kids. I can’t imagine why some folks decide to adopt tramatized kids and then are shocked when they act out. The gal who sent the boy back to Russia alone a few months ago was home schooling him, getting no emotional help for him etc. I have an ex-sister-in-law in Texas who is a super conservative Christian, adopted a black kid from a drug impacted family and made the kid’s life hell. He is grown now, didn’t go to college like the family’s natural children and gets in some trouble once in awhile. Another relative took in 2 children who spent years in a refugee camp in Africa. Same thing, ultra-conservative, home schooling, didn’t believe in getting professional help, it was horrible for those kids. What is this about anyway? Is it a need to appear like a loving Christian family–while not getting the skills to deal with these troubled kids? I know that’s it, but I can’t imagine why. Idiots!!!! End of rant.

      (((Auni))) yes. someone posted this a few days ago. it is horrible. i have become very cynical about the reasons some people take children in their homes. there are wonderful foster parents who love and care for their charges with all that they have. we very seldom hear about them. i personally wouldn’t give any child to a fanatic. any kind of fanatic. such people are, in my opinion, are neurotic by definition of being overly obsessed by religion, by politics or whatever. everyone here was upset by this story.

      “As for the crazy college days she might have missed out because she had a child, she said, “I don’t desire that lifestyle at a frat house or at college parties or anything like that. And, umm, no, I am not envious of that kind of lifestyle.”

      Is it just me, or does that rankle anyone else? College does NOT equal “crazy”. You are not FORCED to participate in any sort of silliness/debauchery. College is about getting an EDUCATION.

      Dolt.

      • gens says:

        I’ve noticed this family tends to lean toward “(higher) Education is for elitist”. if she hangs around the party crowd or is prone to peer pressure (never thought I’d use that last one), I could see her “perception/view” of what college might be like. But, any good parent, teacher, friend, or common sense stresses furthering an education and keeping your wits, not beer-bong-101 or American Pie party animal weed smoke outs. It goes on yes, however, people serious about an education go to learn, especially if the person is paying for it. Now, I was not the best student k-12, partied pretty hard though by the time I made it into college I didn’t waste my time or money on flunking out..had some fun granted. BTW, how many times can one person use the word “awesome” in one interview ? goodness. Bet her thesis would be “like awesome and even more awesome”. Does anyone know what this radio deal is about ? And if anyone is wondering why I give a flip about the Palins – Bachmann-like minds, shooting for another degree, this time in psychology, and well these people are like awesome specimens.

        • Baker's Dozen says:

          Like, wouldn’t, like Bristol, who is, like, so awesome, like, go to, like, an awesome, like, Christian college, like, anyway? That would be so, like, awesome, to, like, go to an awesome, like, college, with, like, other Christian like students and, like, awesome stuff like that.

      • leenie17 says:

        What kind of young woman has a ‘lifestyle at a frat house’? I know it’s been a long time since I was in college but fraternities generally were for the male students. Has college life changed THAT much or does Bristol just not understand that young women do not live in frat houses?

        Does she also not understand that the main purpose of college is to go to classes and get an education, not to party with a bunch of drunken frat boys?

        It is very clear that no one in that family thinks beyond next week. Once the spotlight on Bristol fades and nobody wants to pay her ridiculous amounts of money to speak, what is she going to do with the rest of her life? She’s got many, many years left to support herself and at least one child, and Grizzly Mama’s money will run out long before then. Does she really think she’ll still get $100,000 for a photo spread ten years from now? Certainly college is not for everyone, and there are many worthwhile careers that do not require a degree, but she doesn’t seem to be preparing for anything beyond the next magazine interview. Celebrity may pay well for the short term, but it is fleeting and the next big star is waiting right around the corner, ready to push her right out of the picture.

        Sadly, I don’t see much of a bright future for any of the Palin children unless something changes drastically. Hopefully, some caring friend or relative will enter their lives and become the real role models their parents certainly are not. Otherwise, they all seem destined to just drift through life, expecting people to adore them and pay them just because their name is Palin. What a rude and painful awakening they’re going to have somewhere down the road.

        • Dagian says:

          “Does she really think she’ll still get $100,000 for a photo spread ten years from now?”

          I doubt she can get that much from Playboy in 10 years, maybe 1/10 though. Maybe.

        • Dagian says:

          “What kind of young woman has a ‘lifestyle at a frat house’?”

          The kind who are not there for an education, but maybe to generate money? That does sound like Bristol’s scene though.

      • I went to very few parties when I was in college. And I chose to live in a dorm rather than going to sororiety route. But that had more to do with not liking the idea that someone was going to tell me what to wear, who to date and what to do with my free time. That was back in the late 60s and I hope that has changed by now. But it hadn’t then – you could tell what house a girl lived in by the way she dressed or the color of her bleached hair. Sorry if I’ve offended anyone, but that’s what I experienced. There was more to it than that, though.

        However, Bristol’s view of college is so far from the truth now or even back when I was there. The people who only went to college to party didn’t last long. They were gone after a semester or maybe a year. Even those who did party studied a lot.

        And the main goal for most people I was in class with was to get an education, not to party. We could all have saved a lot of money and just stayed in our home towns if that’s all we wanted to do.

        It sounds to me like Bristol is basing her view of college on what she did or saw others do in high school when they should have been studying instead of partying. So I guess from that narrow point of view, getting a college degree is probably a waste of time for Bristol. It’s too bad – she might actually expand her narrow thinking and grow up a little. She uses her baby as a crutch against seeing any other possibilities for her life than what she has watched her mother do. We all know that Bristol hasn’t had a good role model, and that’s very sad for her child who will apparently grow up with the same disregard for education.

    Incredible story out of Ohio, where single mom Kelley Williams-Bolar was jailed and slapped with a felony conviction for lying to school officials to get her kids into the better school in their father’s school district.

    • janet says:

      Bubbles,
      I am not sure she deserves a felony conviction either, but she did lie to get her kids in
      another school which would create a big mess if everyone did that. It is not smart to
      game the system.

      • dowl says:

        You are correct–but some (in Chicago) teachers here live outside of the city but manage to get their children into the premier magnet programs. It is unfair. It seems that even those parents who are politically connected get their children into those same magnet programs. Many of us know of those who game the education system yet marvel at the ‘education gaps’ among urban student groups.

    • I’m on it. Too bad she couldn’t make a false statement about something trivial,like outing a covert CIA agent. Rethugs would back her 1000% if she were one of them.

    • ks sunflower says:

      Signed it gladly!

      The punishment does far outweigh the “crime.” Here, if someone is caught sending their kids to a different district, they simply have to pay out-of-district tuition. This happens a lot with families on the Missouri side of the metro trying to get their kids into school districts such as the highly acclaimed Blue Valley, Shawnee Mission, or Olathe school districts on the Kansas side.

      For those unfamiliar with the Kansas City metro area. There is Kansas City, Kansas (KCK)- a heavily industrial, densely Democratic city in Wyandotte County and the third largest city in Kansas,just slight north and west of Kansas City, Missouri (KCMO).

      Kansas cities just over the state line (we have a State Line Road separating the two states that several of these cities co-maintain with KCMO — KS takes the southbound lane(s) and MO takes the northbound lanes) include Mission, Leawood, Overland Park, Merriam, Mission Hills, Olathe and others. They are considered, along with KCK, as part of the Kansas City metro-area. You can see, therefore, how easy it would be for parents to try to cross over into the adjacent school districts to get their children into higher rated school districts.

      We are supposed to park our vehicles with our tags facing the street. (Missouri has tags for the front and back of vehicles. Kansas only produces tags for the back of the vehicle.) Theoretically, this is to ensure that everyone who lives in Kansas has Kansas tags, but it has also been used to track people whose children are mis-enrolled in Kansas school districts. When discovered or turned-in, these folks have to withdraw their children and face fines or pay the requisite out-of-district-tuition. I have not heard of a case where criminal charges were pressed as in the case of this Ohio mom.

      School district enrollment is tied to monetary issues. Therefore, charging out-of-district fees makes more sense than enforcing felony charges for violation of enrollment rules. This issue should not be a criminal one. It all turns on money, not true immorality. The spirit of the law, in this instance, is more important that the letter of it. This law is unreasonable and has been unreasonably applied, in my opinion.

      It is obvious that Kelley Williams-Bolar cares deeply about education. She knows the value of getting the best education possible and is dedicating her life to teaching.

      That she could be barred from attaining and implementing her degree in education seems far too harsh. We need all the dedicated teachers we can get. I join bubbles in asking you to sign the petition.

      Her felony conviction is overkill. Yes, she broke the rules regarding enrolling her children. However, the father of those children, while not possessing physical custody of them, still is their father and should be regarded as responsible for their education. Using his address is her only crime insofar as I can tell.

      Have her pay costs, but allow her to finish her degree and teach. Please sign that petition.

      End of rant (for now).

      The person wearing the extreme likeness of the “rill” two-faced Quitta-from-wassila has more moves and natural elegance than’Old Dingbat Thinskinned Buttercup.

      Kudos to Ketchikan for keeping it real!

      Can you post a link? Not sure what IM is! Thx.

      • ks sunflower says:

        IM is the acronym for another Alaskan blog by Gryphen, The Immoral Minority. It can be found at the following:

        http://theimmoralminority.blogspot.com/

        Gryphen shares a desire to expose lies behind political figures such as Sarah Palin, but has a different “voice” than AKM. Both are worthy blogs taking similar but different paths to the same ends: striving to clean up Alaskan and national politics.

    Ted Ferry Civic Center, Ketchikan, AK—–Suddenly, there she was on stage in a sparkling pageant gown embellished with targets and rifles and all the stuff the cool kids have in Palah Sarin’s Alaska. She was maybe 10 feet tall and looking all. . . well, “quitty”! When the Queen of Vamoose (and we’re not talking about you, Brian) stepped out on the stage the crowd roared and clapped. It was a great Wearable Arts show, and this was definitely one of the highlights!

    Surely this beauty’s image should be gracing the walls of a Bush outhouse somewhere!

    The quitter queen could never be a beader.
