Daily Wrap Up – Showing Some Skin.
Wow. If there was a theme for the day, it would have to be “skin.” Who knew there would be enough of it to do a whole wrap-up on the “unwrapped,” as it were.
First, the governor herself. (She’s sitting all the way on the right)
Seems that the governor had another one of her wardrobe challenged moments. Standing in front of the closet, on the way to a veterans’ memorial event that commemorated members of the Alaskan military who paid the ultimate price for their country, where hundreds had come, some from thousands of miles away, she chose…. a teeny little mini-skirt and peep-toe pumps. And after accepting the invitation at the last minute, too late to even be included in the program, her-legginess asked to sit right up on stage. As my mother used to say, “There is a time, and a place for everything.” There’s even a time and a place for a mini-skirt and peep-toe pumps. But a veterans’ memorial isn’t it. Check out the post from Shannyn Moore who was at this event, HERE.
Second, we have Levi Johnston. (He’s the one standing)
”]There is a time and a place for half-naked diaper changes, and actually GQ Magazine is that time and place. So kudos to Levi for knowing his audience, and not showing up topless at a memorial service. The rest of the article promises to be quite interesting. Among other things, it seems that The First Dude offered the First Daughter a shiny new toy if she dumped the father of her child. (using best game show announcer voice) That’s right Bristol Palin, you could be driving away in…a neeew CAAARR! Maybe if she had dated somebody super-scary she could have gotten an iPhone too.
And finally – The Great Cleavage Cover-Up!
Remember when Andree McLeod, activist, filer of ethics complaints and former Workforce Development employee sent a memo to the Commissioner of Administration and Palin’s Chief of Staff talking about the inappropriate dress of some of the young ladies in state offices? And then remember how those emails mysteriously ended up in the hands of the Anchorage Daily News gossip columnist Sheila Toomey? If not, you can refresh your memory HERE. Well….apparently, the email documents on this issue, which McLeod requested to see, have become top secret classified! We may never know exactly what clandestine messages transpired on the issue of cleavage, because all the correspondence that happened after the receipt of McLeod’s original email has been “redacted” by the governor’s Administrative Director. Here was the reason given:
I am redacting the records based on the executive deliberative and process privileges. The Alaska Supreme Court’s decisions in Gwich’in Steering Committee v. State 10 P. 3d 572 (Alaska 2000), and Doe v. Superior Court, 721 P. 2d 617 (Alaska 1986) , among others describes these privileges. These privileges apply to the records I am redacting because these records reflect predecisional, deliberative communications between Governor Palin and her closest aides, as well as among those aides.
Whoa. That’s some fancy cleavage cover-up. Citing the Supreme Court? “Predecisional deliberative communications?” I’m thinking it’s safe to say that the content of the emails wasn’t, “Yeah, I guess we’d better ask everyone to reread the dress code.” It seems awfully coincidental that one of the recipients of the leaked email is the same guy (Chief of Staff Mike Nizich) that said he hoped those who filed ethics complaints against the governor (like Andree McLeod) would experience “backlash” (like having email communication passed on to the Daily News)?
Seems like if the governor was going to think “cover up” it should have been at the Veteran’s Memorial.
Maybe she didn’t try the sitting down with the skirt at home. However, as soon as she sat in the car she would have known it was a problem. But then she asked to be seated on the stage. A better move would have been to do a walk on as she seemed to always do during her campaign appearances.
It does seem that she had two different outfits that day. Maybe this was the one she was wearing for work.
Has anybody here ever read any E.F. Benson?
One of my fave silly British comedy of manners writers…
For those of you who have, I’m becoming more and more convinced that Sarah is Lucia.
(And re: Say NO to Palin’s pic link…Who sits in parking lots to sign bills????? There’s something in the way she’s sitting in that picture that makes me think of a little girl playing grown-up empress…Unbelievable…)
Irishgirl, austintx, If I was wearing that poor girl’s sports bra, I’d be thinking of reducing my mass to improve my energy, also, too.

It seems to me the arguement to be made is that the leaked email has already been “made public” to someone, by either a participant/recipiant of the emails or Scarah’s administration.
SO, I don’t see how they can “close” the door on these. It’s already been made public domain. A select “few” can not have “privilege”.
———-
The e-mail that was leaked/ released to the Ear was the cleavage complaint e-mail between Andree and that GINO staffer. Logically, there couldn’t be any executive deliberative process privilege. It was a response to a citizen complaint.
However, the internal e-mail discussions at the GINO’s office might possibly carry that privilege, if the GINO and her staff are considering what to do about the dress code policy, whether to change it, how to go about enforcing it etc.
So yes, a few can have privilege, and some might not, even if they were all in the same e-mail “string”.
Are they abusing the privilege claim to avoid embarrassment? Almost certainly.
austintx,
I thought you would appreciate that pic…and I just knew it would make you think of Einstein!!! 🙂
IrishGirl – Seeing that first pic. made me think of this :
Mass–energy equivalence was proposed in Albert Einstein’s 1905 paper, “Does the inertia of a body depend upon its energy-content?”, one of his Annus Mirabilis (“Miraculous Year”) Papers.[1] Einstein was not the first to propose a mass–energy relationship, and various similar formulas appeared before Einstein’s theory with incorrect numerical coefficients and an incomplete interpretation. Einstein was the first to propose the simple formula and the first to interpret it correctly: as a general principle which follows from the relativistic symmetries of space and time.
In the formula, c2 is the conversion factor required to convert from units of mass to units of energy. The formula does not depend on a specific system of units. Using the International System of Units, joules are used to measure energy, kilograms for mass, meters per second for speed. Note that 1 joule equals 1 kg·m2/s2. In unit-specific terms, E (in joules) = m (in kilograms) multiplied by (299,792,458 m/s)2.

154 Zggy – if your skirt rides up that high when you sit down, it’s too short.
Or too tight and that is why it rides up so high when you sit down.
But really, she has been on stage all her life in a way.
She should know better and I am still shocked that she learned nothing from the excellent hair and makeup people and the stylists who dressed her. Nothing.
I’d say for a professional it’s a bit too much leg, but she’s proud of em isn’t she.
on the gov’s web site, until they read this, lol

somebody with some time please check into the Supreme Court “cases” they are referring to, it would be fun to see what they are “basing” their “redacting” excuse on.
Dontcha think? this could be fun, lol, what information, so important that it made it all the way to the AK Supreme Court are they comparing dress code emails to, lol.
I couldn’t resist posting this, seeing as cleavage is a topic!!

SO, I don’t see how they can “close” the door on these. It’s already been made public domain. A select “few” can not have “privilege”.
And where is the story on emails or information being leaked (read that fed) from the gov’s office? sloppy, sloppy, sloppy! I think Sheila Toomey should be charged for using classsified information if the emails were not allowed to be made public. She violated the gov’s redact ruling. Is that like stealing classified info? selling it? lol (we know it was freely given and made public to slam Andree)
(at least this leak tactic (most likely, but ya never know, lol) will not be attempted again, silly gov and Mag, for trying to be sly but not really suceeding, lol.) Good for Andree to take them on for it.
And what will happen to the Eddie Burke requested emails? hmmmm…….will they take forever? will there be a “fair” and “equal” process used, as in “redacting” ? we shall wait and see……..also too, will the charges be the same? they better show impartial treatment or it will be yet “another” ethics charge, rightfully so, just warning Mag Forkedtongue.
Surprised she didn’t show up in a bikini trying to out do her new best friend, Ms Prejean.

Zero to none!
Gee, I’m not even a state governor (and hardly a fashionista), but even I know this one, Problem Child: “I would have to agree, that when picking a skirt for a serious event, it’s a good idea to do a test “sit-down”.
I’ve done the ‘sit-test’ dozens of times, and I can’t imagine me putting on that skirt, sitting in a chair and having my current hubby, former hubby, BFF, Mom, Dad, sister, or any of my friends or collegues see that much thigh and say, “yeah, that’s fine for a memorial service for fallen soldiers on Memorial Day”.
The skirt *was* too short (or tight, or otherwise ill-fitting, but same result)and I think, once she got there, she figured that out. She seems to be sitting very stiffly, as though she was (quite rightly!) trying to make sure nothing more got exposed than what already had been.
Remember, she didn’t RSVP her attendance in advance, so maybe she didn’t really have it and the seriousness of it on her radar while she was getting dressed. I bet it never entered her pea-brain that she would be sitting, exposed, for long enough time periods for people to notice her legs and a bit too much thigh. And how inappropriately distracting it would be.
Then again, I could be full of stuff that comes out the south end of a north-facing horse.
But in any case, here’s how I see it:
A) if she, with full knowledge of what she was doing, chose to go with that wardrobe choice (implying she passed up other choices), then she was definitely trying to grab photo-op attention from attending this event, which is reprehensible and only goes to further Bob Poe’s assertion that she is ‘narcissitic’.
B) if that’s all the skirt/dress/non-jeans-or casualwear she had with her ‘on the road’, then she didn’t plan ahead, was not organized enough. Didn’t think ahead.
C) if she made the wardrobe selection at home and failed to even think about the ‘sit-test’, well, she overlooked something that ANYONE in the public eye should know to think about before choosing a skirt (or dress) to wear for a public occassion. Again, it’s the not-thinking-ahead part that doesn’t give me confidence in her.
None of these three reflects well on her.
Sure, everybody can make a mistake every once in awhile, but in what I call NormalLand, people who make mistakes a) acknowledge them; b) apologize to the appropriate person(s)/group; c) make some convincing statement that they will not do it again.
Odds we see any of that from Gov. Palin?
By the way I’m pretty sure that symbol on the front of the podium is supposed to be a cross.
I seriously hope she doesn’t even attempt to run in 2012….it would be a tremendous waste of money. Sarah, do the right thing and go away.
Haa ha ha. I can see her panties! Just lighten the photo a bit.
Hmmm, was W.A.R. (almost Attorney General) present, I wonder?
Good thing sarah did not have a stop at a zoo on her appearance schedule that day , or this could’ve happened.
http://www.yaplakal.com/uploads/post-3-12423683177685.jpg
“I wouldn’t even mention it”
I remember Sarah attending a function in the Lower 48 shortly after she returned from the failed VP stint. The news clip of the event showed her at the podium in mid-calf leggings.
Even tho she is not a professional it would be great if someone would at least instruct her how to dress like a professional. Clothes should not be distracting from the event. They should be a non-issue.
But, like Richard Kinky (Big Dick) Friedman says, “You can lead a politician to water, but you can’t make them THINK!”
She is a sleazy dresser.
I would have to agree, that when picking a skirt for a serious event, it’s a good idea to do a test “sit-down”, if only to make sure that you don’t need to shave/wax a bit higher. Especially if it’s a new skirt or one you haven’t worn for a while (and might be a bit tighter or looser than last time you wore it.)
Honestly, I even mention it, except that she appears to have been wearing other clothes in different pictures from that day, and they appear to be more appropriate, if ugly (not counting the shoes, of course).

This confirms the criticism that Sarah is (George) “Bush in a skirt”. Ok, this is too much fun, must move on….
She left herself open for it!
I don’t think I’ll ever brag about living in the Alaskan bush again!
I saw photos of her at the memorial service, and she wasn’t wearing a mini skirt, did she change? Or did her skirt just ride up to look like she was wearing one while being seated?
I don’t have a problem with trashing Palin, but I don’t think she was wearing a mini skirt.
And that Alaskan Bush comment was very funny, naughty but funny.
In fairness to Governor Cougar, she may well have been headed to hook-up night at the local hotel bar when a war (memorial service) broke out, and she was called into service….

Regarding those redacted emails, missing emails, ethics complaints being dismissed, outragous fees for copies of emails,etc……………….
What’s going on up there? All of this seems a bit odd to me. Is this all legal? Why isn’t it possible to hold your governor and goverment accountable? Do you need to solicite help from the ACLU (or something) to look into the legality of these matters?
How about starting your own legal defence fund to pay for an investigation in the current administration? I have never seen a State government like this one?
thanks for the winkie coverup! My children were shocked at the naked photo. I just laughed wondering what the BIMBOGINO would be think’in about her grandson already strutting his stuff?!
Was Sarah wearing the official T-shirt of the Candie’s abstinence program with her mini skirt?
It says, I’m sexy enough to keep you waiting”. Check it out.
http://www.candiesfoundation.org/tshirts.html
Picture that on Palin with her mini-skirt.
But seriously, what kind of message is that supposed to be for young girls? Teaching young girls to flaunt their sexuality? How about teaching them that they are more than a sex object?
I am an empath and I have to say, I almost feel bad for Palin. She must be massively insecure under all that bravado. A normal person would have learned from professionals at the RNC how to dress and present herself. But apparently she is incapable of letting herself learn something from someone else.
When she is no longer a threat to me in the lower 48, I will be able to feel full empathy. Now, I just want to expose her and bring her down, and then I would be happy to offer Reiki or a shoulder to cry on!
I’m guessing Palin dressed that way because she thought she would upstage the President of the United States on Memorial Day. NOT.
I’m sure her thought process went something like this—- “Oh, the press will be there to follow my every move–I’m sure this will make National news because I am there.—I better show up and look HOT”.
Was People magazine present?
Redacted? I scratched my head, then consulted Wikipedia:
‘In the study of literature, redaction is a form of editing in which multiple source texts are combined together (redacted) and subjected to minor alteration to make them into a single work. Often this is a method of collecting together a series of writings on a similar theme and creating a definitive and coherent work.”
UH-OH! This means SP and staff can take all those words and wiggle them around to suit them. I wouldn’t believe a word – more word salad.
OOPS !! Did not look at all the pics. before I linked. Please do not look if you are easily offended. SORRY !!

In the interview, the writer comments on Levi and Bristol, sending flirty messages to one another. “GQ writer John Jeremiah Sullivan watched them exchange flirty text messages.” Which is strange considering the physical as well as verbal animosity Bristol, showed in her interviews.
I think Bristol, is as manipulative as her mother switching up emotions suddenly to get what she wants.

Good eye. If you blow the picture up, you can see a door stop on the wall. I don’t think a residential home would have one like that.

BTW, you think maybe, Tank, is more a babysitter (To keep Levi, out of harms way of Palin, setting him up on some BOGUS charge) then of him walking around as Levi’s, shadow to intimidate his friends from using their iphones to submit a random picture to the National Enquirer?
Paula, I’m thinking that if it was after she found out that her daughter was pregnant that folks started becoming alarmed about the inappropriate way the governor was dressing …… that the governor might not have realised the world of difference between hoochie-mama and hoochie-grandma …..
Why would anyone over 30 even wear a miniskirt unless you’re a bar –? Cause even if you’re not, that’s what you end up looking like. Guess wil Bozo, we at least have to say, “Well, she didn’t wear her thigh high black shiny boots…”
Doit!
Compare this to the Rethugs attacking Michelle Obama for her ARMS!
131 anon blogger Says:

——————————————————
I’d be willing to bet that’s Levi’s room. Remember, he was travelling a lot at the time, and his suitcase and backpack (which is what is hanging up) would have been doing double duty.
Bristol would never let Levi take the baby on tour – not in a million years. Or a zillion years.
AKM…ol’ GINO dressed for veterans, the word memorial went right over her head. She dressed for the boys. Just like wearing that red lipstick with red shoes at match, and all that winking. That’s how she got where she is today. Certainly couldn’t be because of brains. Wonder if she realizes that those skinny, shiny, tanning bed baked, knotty knee, over exposed legs are really unattractive? Guess not, huh?!
Wonder why Levi has Tripp in a hotel room (clothes hanging in background)? Very odd, wonder if he is traveling with Bristol on all her trips? Oh, I know they are supposed to be at odds with each other…but maybe not. Cause it doesn’t make sense him traveling with Tripp. Maybe it’s all been a publicity stunt orchestrated by ol’ GINO? After all, their alleged breakup certainly has generated a lot of TV and magazine interviews for a couple of young adults whose only accomplishment thus far in life has been producing babies.
I think the administration is showing how silly they really are. To redact memos regarding cleavage shows how the administration abuses its power. Oh, a name of a particular person should be blacked out. But the whole memo, over dress codes?! Must be top secret, huh?! It should be obvious that this administration is not open and transparent at all.

————————————————
You are right Lisa – who knows how many prop/stand-in babies they have used for both Tripp and Trig. Whatever suits their purposes.
My 25 year old daughter would not wear a dress that short to a Memorial service for Vets. Why? Because I bought her up to know the difference between work clothes and party clothes!
Interesting that she has to send an email re: cleavage to younger members of the staff. But why wouldn’t they dress this way when their employer dresses like this in her official capacity?

Wow, thanks for that information. 🙂
While it is fun to poke fun at SP’s clothing choices, I am more concerned with the lack of respect she showed to the planners of the Decoration of Honor event. She could not take the time to respond to their invitation. She shows up on the day of and insists on being seated on stage and to be allowed to speak. I agree with Shannyn these are things she should do as governor, but not at the last minute. Maybe, if she could stay off twitter for a moment she could have found the time to let them know if she was attending or not. I think her actions were disrespectful to the planners and the veterans. It once again demonstrated that it is all about her.
I think lynnrockets should do a parody about Sarah based on the old blues tune Minnie the Moocher. Wouldn’t even have to change very many of the words.
Re: emails. I have read in many places how much the state of AK charges for their emails. They don’t charge for ones that are redacted, do they? If they do, what a scam.

What I find interesting about the veteran’s memorial event that our wardrobe challenged gov attended is that she did not tweet about the event. This was a significant event one that certainly should have been commented on by the gov–but not one word. It is always entertaining to see what she views as worthy of mention–her kids hair cut, river trips on chena with hubby among other things–but not one word about this very important occasion–priorities I guess…

This is probably why Sarah chooses her outfits poorly – she just hadn’t been out and about much and in small towns, pretty much anything goes. She just doesn’t know about appropriate clothing and she’s sure not going to listen to anyone now! Ha!
This is just speculation, but I’d be willing to bet that those redacted emails contained a lot of snark about Andree and jokes that the complaint was petty. (Not that I think it was, but it wouldn’t surprise me if they did).
Levi looks fine, but I feel sorry for Tripp who will be a teenager some day and embarrassed that his nekkid baby pic was in a national magazine. Those usually are private family blackmail photos.
When the lege next convenes, it seems they need to take a closer look at the ethics complaint process. This one is so flawed as to be completely ineffective. However, as with the Federal government, the legislature has so many bigger problems to solve than guaranteeing civil liberties and due process. It’s a sad state of affairs.

About a month before the VP nomination, I heard a first hand report of the last minute appearance of the Gov, seated on a raised stage, very short skirt, heels, no stockings. (Sorry, wasn’t at event, so can’t say which one it was). The shock was: with all her ‘people’, did no-one think to take her aside and whisper some advice?
________________
Remember the Presidential Campaign? Doesn’t seem that our Sarah likes advice or the advice-givers. And she was really great at dressing the part; remember the red suit with the short skirt and the black go-go boots? She tends to “dress to impress”, or “dress to attract” rather than dressing appropriately. But, then again, when you are elected for your looks, when you are picked to be a VP candidate for your looks, when most of your voters vote for you because you are “hot”, I guess you do have people to please and a part to play….
Martha…I guess you are not so appreciative of outsiders. I happened to be one of your tourists back in 2008 and absolutely loved the experience. I had jeans and a sweatshirt on, no makeup and being from Seattle, I have no tan. LOL! I guess some tourists fit your description, but not all!
Meant to say “as if the Chena is mighty”.
LOL, Martha UYS, I was thinking the same thing earlier today when I first saw the pictures. My thoughts were, it’s Freeekin’ Fairbanks”, what the h e double toothpicks is she all gussied up for? If you look at the people in the pics they are dressed normal for fairbanks. And the shoes? OMG. Hahaha. Alot of women don’t even wear makeup. You’d need a trowel just to find her dermatitus. I read she went on a boat trip up the “mighty” Chena, ehheheh, as in the Chena is “mighty”.
Let me put it this way… living in Juneau you can spot a tourist almost instantaneously even if they aren’t in the normal tourist “zones”. They have hair dos, wear makeup, have shoes with heels of some sort, wear bright colors and the biggest give away of all.. a tan. THEY think they look completely normal, and often feel very dressed down or casual on their vacation. To US – they are friggin’ dressed to the nines.
Sometime around February, I look in my closet and say “DOH! It’s time to wear something with color!” Well, jeans are always the same color but you can go wild with a bright long sleeved T or sweater – woo hoo!
I was thinking about 2010, I don’t know if she’ll run for gov. If she does and someone beats her, wouldn’t it kinda be like Obama and bush. Wouldn’t the next Gov be able to see what her administration did and see all the stuff that she is hiding. Can they hold her accountable then? LOL, can you hear the shredders working over-time?
I think Levi is very typical looking for an Alaskan kid without his shirt on! We don’t usually show much skin around here (except those rare sunny and hot-for-us days). I hate to say it, but in general we don’t really care what we look like when we take that shirt off or put on shorts – as long as you can feel the warm sun on your skin!
I must add that in my opinion, folks in Anchorage overall are much more “spruced up” and presentable – it is a little city after all! But the rest of us – well, er.. uhmmm…

No idea what they say, just have seen several of her fans bragging about getting personalized hand written thank you notes for donating to the “legal~gimme fund”.
TX Lisa–ah, I see your confusion. The “GOV” after the other people’s names specifically indicates that they work in the Governor’s office. Other departments’ three letter codes are different.
TX Lisa–“GOV Sponsored” just means it’s an e-mail on the State of Alaska’s e-mail system. Nothing nefarious there, as much as some may want there to be…
The Queen just loves any kind of attention…good, bad…..it doesn’t matter. She is addicted to headlines every day. She knows her skirt was in appropriate…..she knows she should have comfirmed her attendance…she just doesn’t give a hott about anyone but herself. It makes me wonder if she grew up lacking love or attention. Did she have a sister who was prettier? Is she still suffering from not winning the Miss Wasilla pageant? She seriously does not act appropriately-ever. She seems like alost soul. Does she have any REAL friends?
The Levi and Tripp picture just makes me think ‘how sad, a boy having a child.”
I’ll add that it is a sweet picture. And at least the baby’s not drugged.

When I saw that picture of Palin and all that skin showing, all I could think of was, “hope she kept her knees together the whole time she was sitting there!”
If not, I’ll bet even in the darkness of the setting, you could see all the way up to Palin’s hysterectomy scar…

Gino has never learned anything about class or etiquette.
She had better watch it because if she gets caught checking out Alaska’s “stroll”, she might just mistakenly get caught up in a Prostitution sting by the police, strutting her mini and monkey peep toe shoes and later be recognized as the Governor at the police station. Just a vision running through my mind.

I couldn’t agree more! Far from the hunting/fishing/outdoorsy type, he looks like a teenage couch potato.
This latest complaint dismissal shows how biased the system is. Celtiv Diva has a page from the lawyer who dismissed the case and he starts his conclusions with…Ms. McLoed is a repeat complaintent and goes on to add We have chosen to construe her allegations narrowly.
http://divasblueoasis.com/diary/636/quick-lunch-after-the-personnel-board-meeting-the-complaint-dismissal
As Diva says…Mr. Geraghty has chosen to play “lawyer semantics” with Ms. McLeod…like…errr…Palin’s defense attorney. However, HE’S SUPPOSED TO BE A NEUTRAL PARTY HERE! Plus, one is supposed to be able to file an ethics complaint (and answer one) WITHOUT a lawyer. As I saw today at the Personnel Board Meeting, the deck is stacked.
bwahahahah, Aussie!!! oh mah gawd but that’s hilarious… not that I ever wanna hear your arse or donkey talk.

Wow! She might have to break some more ethics laws and then find peeps to file complaints so she can incite her followers into sending more $$$.
And I’m off to attend to personal s$*t. ‘Nite all.
I guess in Palins case, the more religious you are, the sluttyier you dress, and the more make up you wear. I’m embarrassed for her. I teach my daughters to dress correctly at all times. That includes no mini’s, no low cut blouses, no sleveless (were LDS, and it’s a culture thing). My husband would NEVER allow me to go out in public looking like I am getting ready to work the streets. I wonder if she and toddy think this is one of their little sex games?
I’m guessing those “cleavage” emails must have been pretty raunchy for them to suddenly be classified and “redacted”. Since when do you classify correspondence about dress code????? Something stinks here.
Speaking of dress code…Ms. Palin needs some pointers on what is situation appropriate and age appropriate.

Here’s a recent entry from a haraS supporter blog:
“Alaska Fund Trust Reminder — Please Donate/Continue Donating
Even though Governor Palin recently had four ethics complaints dismissed, she still has significant legal expenses. If you have not already donated to the Alaska Fund Trust, please consider it a top priority Sarah Palin-related donation.”
And if she gets enough donations, she won’t have to worry at all about that pesky Executive Ethics Act.
Sad, really, that she doesn’t realize how inappropriate it is for a woman her age to wear a mini skirt regardless of having good-looking legs. Mini skirts, jeans, next she’ll be showing up in Daisy Dukes.
What a bunch of Hillbillies..Pathetic bunch they are….
Just curious, but where’s the email in which the “restrained” Kreitzer sends Andree the state dress code?

Right, Canadian Neighbor, forgot about that $150,000 legal “Troopergate” legal fee. If the Palins (supposedly) offered Bristol a car for leaving Levi, how will donors feel about giving their hard-earned cash to their good governor who would buy her daughter”s allegiance with big gifts; if they can afford to buy their daughter a car, what must SarahPackers and sarah donors be feeling tonight? Not the love, I’m sure.

She is just a class-less female…and it’s unfortunate for the entire family that she is their only role model. When intelligence doesn’t exist, resort to sex appeal…it’s a cheap way to gather attention and recognition. I never expected anything else from palin…she’s shallow and easy to read and insignificant.

Thanks, curiouser. Interesting stuff.
Also interesting are the two blogs (one on blogspot and one on wordpress) that call themselves “alaskafundtrust.” Neither had done anything recently – except the wordpress one seems to be making fun of the “schmucks” in peeland.
The photo of Palin wearing a mini-skirt should come as no surprise to anyone. When you don’t have intellect to rely on to attract others (or engage others) a person is more apt to rely on their sexuality, or sensuality.
Her choice of dress is indicative of the fact that deep down even Palin knows she doesn’t have much intellect or intellectual curiosity. Sex sells, and she’s clearly for sale. She’s demonstrated an amazing ability to prostitute herself. But deep down is a truly insecure and incurious person.
Palin is an embarrassment, but mostly to herself.
#50 Rebekkah, sauerkraut & Canadian Neighbour
The AK Fund Trust doesn’t need to stop collecting. It is not for specific legal bills. Money can be used to pay any legal bills directly and can also be withdrawn by the Palins for any undisclosed reason…about $12-13,000 (or whatever the IRS nontaxable gift limit is) a year for each family member). The fund doesn’t even limit withdrawals to immediate family.
The trust document is available to download here:

Andree, is a recognized hero for putting herself in the path of the vain one. The outrageous retorts and headlines by Palin, is just showing over & over what kind of creep she is. The end result will be Andree, by proxy of Palin, dumb ass, will be the nail in the coffin. Everyone raise a glass to Andree!!!
#50 Rebekkah _ interesting question. Wonder what the alaska fund trust blog has to say about that. …
“Major Dimissal Today of 8 Complaints in One Ruling ”
then says
“McLeod’s complaint, amended several times since it was first filed, made eight separate allegations against the governor.”
SARAHpack of lies
Seems she’s raised her office status to that of Cheney with redacting the emails.
Time for GINO to go on a hunting trip now!!!
saw that photo of Levi changing diapers…
ain’t no “six-pack” there. He actually looks a lot more than flabby in the midsection and should have kept his shirt on.
OVER AT sarahPAC::::the same press release
“…there is no need for a hearing on the complaint filed in March by Andree McLeod, who has been a vocal critic of the governor since being denied employment with the state last year. ”
this is so wrong…trying to conect her being ‘DENIED’ a job with her holding GiNOs accountable….I haven’t read anywhere tha GiNO ‘personally’ turned her down…so whats he connection>>> there isn’t one!
to bad Andree didn’t apply during the hiring freez…odds are that she would have been hired

I slapped my own face for even thinking it!!! But it is the low-life impression she gives.
At least she didn’t wear her painted clogs. I’ll give her a singular brain cell credit for that, but only one.
On a positive note, Tripp is really cute, Bein’ neckid is always appropriate at his age.
“I’ll give you a car if you break up with your boyfriend. Morons.”
LMAO, Phoebe that is just so truthful it hurts.
I attended pentecostal churches, and have met some very kind thoughtful people in these churches. However, sometimes people will hide their true “self” and play church. What gets to me is how a woman who has supposedly learned the christian tradition has no problem baring her legs like that, especially in the presence of those mourning during a memorial service.
Now that 13 of the ethics complaints have been discharged, does that mean the Governor’s Legal Fund won’t need donations anymore? Can it still continue requesting donations now that most complaints won’t go to court?
Isn’t Google great? Here’s an interesting excerpt from the Gwich’in decision:
“Generally, it is difficult for a requestor to override a presumptive privilege. [Fn. 56] Relevant factors include: the degree of confidentiality and sensitivity of the communication; the time elapsed after deliberation concluded and after communications were made; and whether deliberation is ongoing. [Fn. 57] ”
Well, if the emails in question were leaked by the GINO’s office to the press, I fail to see how they are confidential and sensitive.
This is an outrage. The legislature needs to get on this immediately. To redact emails relating to a dress code complaint is clearly an unjustified coverup. Time to bring out the big guns. The intention, clearly foretold, to get even with complainers – is an actionable ethics violation.
Don’t wait for the iceberg. Time for the legislature to create their own and sink the SS Palin.
not that sarah::Is she a stripper or a governor?
…hows about Alaska strippers her title…
To think we got upset at our Junior Prom because one of the female freshman helper was wearing a pleather body-suit. . .that wasn’t disrespect. . .THIS is disrespect.
My apologies to the veterans and our citizens for the Palin Administration’s dress code malfunctions.
And I’m with you AKM, citing the Alaska Supreme Court in their justification for shredding, err, redacting sophomoric email exchanges between the Governor and her minions is over the top.
One can only imagine the maturity exhibited in that series of correspondence.
I’m having a fit of the giggles…the whole group of them are just so…so HAHAHAHAHAHA!
oops… meant, #39 !!
Wow that’s a lot of leg for an old timer & grandma to be showing. Once again she doesn’t do the age & occasion appropriate thing. Can you imagine telling your teenage daughter…I’ll give you a car if you break up with your boyfriend. Morons.

Be thankful she wasn’t in her usual full 7th grade regalia… we wouldn’t want her to be up there with nothing under the mini.
What is that saying about Idle hands are the devil’s playthings cause Palin is like going bat sht crazy over on Twitter today. The only people that watch her are curiosity seekers waiting for her to muff up. She won’t get a vote, a dime or a bff off that thing. She sure is going to town. Someone must have told her the Titanic 2 is about to get ripped open wide.
I am not reading any snarky comments about Levi, with Tripp, in GQ. Someone shut her up about talking about the kid so now all she has are the Aces, lol.
One of the most abused excuses for not providing requested public documents is the hallybooed “executive deliberative and process privileges. ”
I wish someone with a law degree would file the same request, get the same response, and then file an appeal with the court. There simply is no valid reason to hide a request about the dress code under or behind “executive deliberative and process privileges.” I mean, seriously… what is providing unredacted emails going to do? Actually make the guv enforce the dress code? Or maybe it will become a matter of great state security.

IMO, no one deserves to have their job application history publicized on a state governor’s web site. I really hope it’s illegal and Palin gets nailed for it. ….
But I’d settle for getting nailed on the cleavage e-mails. I’m not fussy.

ouch. I’d best go sit in the corner for a while until I quit trying to meow 😡
OMG. She looks like she’s going out for a night of drinking with the boys after work.
Re the emails: Redacted, fancy language, more baloney and some monkey shoes. You can’t make this stuff up! Sounds like Sarah was unkind re the cleavage issue, and used it as another revenge tactic and now wants to cover up her high school mean-girl tactics.
Wonder if she got the email about appropriate clothing? I’m sure the folks sitting beneath her got a Britney eyeful of bare-legged Palin. Gross. Is she a stripper or a governor? Wait, don’t answer that!
Re: sarah’s attire………..that’s all she’s got. Sad to say, those are her big guns.
