Fox News:Despite an invitation to speak at the conference, Sarah Palin, former vice presidential candidate, and until recently Alaska governor, decided not come to the National Federation of Republican Women's 35th Convention, according to the organization.
"It is disappointing," says Barbara Davis, who heads the Melbourne, Fla., chapter. "We were hoping that she would come. It would have benefited her to attend."
"We don't know what's going on with her," says Barbara Knauff, a NFRW member from Leesburg, Fla. "She's not the kind to go quietly into the night, but she's smart. She'll come out when she can make the greatest impact."
While Palin will not be going to Florida, she will be delivering a keynote speech in Hong Kong, China, later this month, according to her spokeswoman, Meg Stapleton.Well, the women's convention looks like a freebie, the Hong Kong gig, on the other hand...

Yes, Sarah Palin will "come out when she can make the greatest impact". On her bank balance, more likely. Which brings me to another snippet of Levi's story on Vanity Fair, talking about Sarah after she lost the election:
Sarah was sad for a while. She walked around the house pouting. I had assumed she was going to go back to her job as governor, but a week or two after she got back she started talking about how nice it would be to quit and write a book or do a show and make “triple the money.” It was, to her, “not as hard.” She would blatantly say, “I want to just take this money and quit being governor.” She started to say it frequently, but she didn’t know how to do it. When she came home from work, it seemed like she was more and more stressed outIn her breathless resignation announcement, Sarah Palin said:
In fact, this decision comes after much consideration, and finally polling the most important people in my life – my children (where the count was unanimous…) well, in response to asking: “Want me to make a positive difference and fight for ALL our children’s future from OUTSIDE the Governor’s office?” It was four “yes’s” and one “hell yeah!” The “hell yeah” sealed it – and someday I’ll talk about the details of that…What she may have asked the children: "Want me to make difference to our finances by making a pile of money from those suckers, outside this stupid governor's office?"
Hell yeah!

Uh...Levi also talks about Sarah's plan for adopting Trig and how the Palin kids fend for themselves!
Very revealing!
She is not a mother. She is a mother___ker
On the Vanity Fair website, it says:
"The October issue of Vanity Fair hits newsstands in New York and Los Angeles on September 2 and nationwide on September 8."
Could somebody who is living in New York or Los Angeles buy the issue and check what else is in the article? That would be fantastic! Thanks!

OT -- Beck attacked Van Jones on his show Tuesday; Hannity attacked him on his radio show, too.
Van Jones, is President Obama's Special Advisor for Green Jobs. Beck was asking if the FBI vetted Van Jones; he referred to him as a black militant communist. Well, Van Jones is the co-founder of Color of Change, although the last time he worked with them was about four years ago. Well, that should explain the attacks.
The video with Beck's attack at the site below:

There's a not-so-subtle story on HuffPo - "Palin wanted to keep pregnancy secret" - and the photo is the one of Levi, Bristol & Trig @ the convention.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/09/02/levi-johnston-palin-wante_n_274986.html
Which pregnancy did Palin want to keep secret? Is Levi talking about the Tripp or Trig pregnancy when he says that Palin wanted to adopt the baby? It could have been Trig, and he and Bristol changed their minds about the adoption when they found out they had a Down Syndrome baby and couldn't afford it?
I have yet to read anywhere where in this quote Levi indicates which baby he's talking about. This seems to me like the proverbial "shot across the bow"
http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2009/09/levi-johnston-palin-offered-to-adopt-baby-talked-about-resigning-after-2008-election-to-triple-the-m.php
This story has legs!
With all the secrets and "gates" looming over her head.... I think Sarah must use Propofol to get to sleep at night.
Sarah... your fake world is about to explode in your face.
Huff Po doesn't seem to be moderating the comments so strictly. People are openly speculating about which baby Levi is refering to. I think all in all, this has not been a good week for Palin.
Go Levi!!!
In the peelanders zone, a long time reader commented:
"Am I the only person at C4P that believes that Levi Johnston is a Judas?"
So....Sarah has to be Jesus then, right?
These people crack me up every time. :-)
Wait for $arah to come out with a wild-ride like story in an attempt to discredit Levi. I think it will only raise more questions.
Let's test the comment about Sarah adopting Levi & Bristol's baby:
If it was said in regard to baby #2, then when Bristol & Levi said "No!" Sarah's response was to throw Bristol under the bus, out her at the Republican Convention, and...... it doesn't make alot of sense because it doesn't enhance Sarah's so-called family values.
In fact, she had to issue a stand-by-our-daughter speech within a few days of her nomination. Sarah had to present Levi as the future son-in-law, stick a ring on his finger and drag him and Bristol around for a while, it was a joke.
The story makes far more sense in regard to baby #1-- adopting a DS baby does enhance her pro-life family values. Think about that famous Evansville speech, "I chose life." Also, I think that Sarah felt that she was still too young to be a grandmother at 44. In her beauty pageant thinking, I'm still attractive, fertile, sexy, hell, that's MY kid!" Then, when Bristol got pregnant again, boy, was Sarah mad! Threw her under the bus!
What is clear is that whatever the arrangement, Levi loved Trig. The evidence is that tender kissing-the-baby scene at the convention. Bristol was put in charge as the primary caregiver, maybe providing the milk for Trig, guessing from that overstuffed grey dress picture.
I strongly believe that the Johnstons are bound by some kind of confidentiality agreement. There will be serious consequences if someone talks.
Trig's birthdate, April 18, may be the date that papers were signed, making him Sarah & Todd's child on that date. That's like a birth date, or....
As for that wild ride story, we all assume that Trig was born earlier with complications. When he was to be released from the hospital, Sarah & Todd only had so much time to get back to Alaska to show off their new (pink & fat) son, on April 18.
(All of the above are educated guesses, please don't sue anyone).
"Anyway. I am all over the Palins. I mean, yeah, okay, Bristol is the mother of my two kids ..."
My two kids!!!

Well, Levi's story in Vanity Fair seems to be softening Palin's deception, working towards sympathy.
I always had a feeling that Levi was a prop for Palin. So far, Levi has said just enough to get attention, but nothing that really exposes Palin as a deceptive politician. Most of the time he just repeats what has already been said in the media. Are they all members of Palin's seven mountains church?
I came to that opinion that Levi was a prop when Levi brought child visitation on the national stage instead of filing a complaint with the court. That was not in the best interest of the child. But, as with Sherri's case, the Johnstons attack the legal system as being bias giving them an excuse for going to the media. Before believing both civil and criminal court systems are corrupt and in Palin's back pockets, I would like to know if the Johnstons are also members of Palin's seven mountains church.

"I got to be thinking about my kids. My boy is going on trial [death panels?] and my other boy is getting ready to learn words. Got to figure out some vocabulary for Tripp before Todd teaches him ..."

If only this was the "real" article...
;-)
Levi find a bunker to hunker down in.. the VF article is going to bring in the heavy bombers.
C4P already has a "Levi the Liar" post.
Can't wait to see Meg and Sarah's attack start.
Wow, and they tar the Republicans with a few "birthers". You people are much more wacko than they could ever hope to be.
Ohhh...Cee4Pee has published a huge article, a massive frontal attack on Levi. Basically accusing him to be a pathological liar. According to Cee4Pee, he never even lived with the Palins...
They imply that virtually everything he says is a lie.
It's getting exciting! The Palinites are now in panic mode. :-)
I wonder if John McCain will give Levi a big hug the next time they meet?
John.. you hugged the guy that is about to make you the biggest joke in politics.
John's "How about Sarah... heh, heh" , after the VP debate, still echo in my head.
They are spinning furiously at Sea of Pee. Their keyboards and mice are melting, just like the wicked witch. They try to put Levi down, forgetting about their own Senator-in-the-restroom sex and Rush Limbaugh returning from the Dominican Republic, busted for Viagra without a prescription (Custom's also found condoms, but they don't require a prescription).
The Atlantic has more quotes from the VF article
Levi will, for sure, get more invites to talk shows... he lets some juicy stuff out about Sarah.
He says she does not read much and is lazy...
Isn't it odd that after all this time, Levi starts talking when some nasty rumors are posted about Trig's biological parents a while back? And I'm not talking about Levi.
Article says it's going to be five pages in Vanity Fair:
http://politics.theatlantic.com/2009/09/the_levi_johnston_story_unabridged_edition.php
This is from the Vanity Fair Article.
"Even before Palin became John McCain's running mate she seemed worried about what a grandchild would do to her political career. According to Johnston, she had a plan for how to handle her daughter's unexpected pregnancy."
"Sarah told me she had a great idea: we would keep it a secret—nobody would know that Bristol was pregnant. She told me that once Bristol had the baby she and Todd would adopt him. That way, she said, Bristol and I didn’t have to worry about anything. Sarah kept mentioning this plan. She was nagging—she wouldn’t give up. She would say, “So, are you gonna let me adopt him?” We both kept telling her we were definitely not going to let her adopt the baby. I think Sarah wanted to make Bristol look good, and she didn’t want people to know that her 17-year-old daughter was going to have a kid."
My question is, why would Sarah want to keep a secret about Bristol's pregnancy with Trip by adopting him when she just had a baby named Trig? Okay, I'll answer my own question. Levi is talking about Trig in the above article. This proves to me without a doubt that Palin Deceptions and all the other bloggers regarding the mother of Trig have been right all along. Bristol is the mother of Trig and Trip. Trig was born earlier than April 18th, probably in January or February and soon after that Bristol became pregnant again with Trip.
Just my opinion, I do not believe that Sarah Palin can get pregnant.
Reesie in VA
Reesie...this is exactly what it means. Levi is sbviously referring to Bristol's first pregnancy with Trig, NOT Trip. BTW, I just had to read the comments at Peeland and they are hilarious. Many of theem say Levi is a proven liar because Sarah cooked on camera with Matt Lauer and Greta Von Suckup! They think Tank Jones and Rex Butler are now on the Obama payroll.
They are making excuses for Bristol being the caretaker, and one sad sack even said they didn't care if Sarah didn't cook, they would even eat corn flakes with her!
Check out the unabridged version, ya'll!!!!
http://politics.theatlantic.com/2009/09/the_levi_johnston_story_unabridged_edition.php
OT: There may be more Sarah fakery that hasn't been discussed, yet. Look at the pictures of her with her glasses on, especially the ones at an angle. There is no distortion of her face! When far-sighted people wear their glasses, the part of the face behind the lens gets magnified; when near-signted people wear glasses, the part of the face behind the lens is smaller. It's very obvious when you see the line of the face (upper cheek) through the lens, but not so in Sarah's case.
She may need glasses. Does she wear contacts and glasses?
Reesie, Audrey over to Palin Deceptions crunched the numbers, and estimated that a seventeen-year-old woman having regular unprotected sex had a 24% chance of conceiving in any given month, and a 7% chance of miscarrying. A woman over 40 in those circumstances had .8% (that's eight-tenths of ONE percent!) chance of conceiving in a month, with a 50% miscarriage rate.
Now factor in Levi's insistence that $P and Dud were sleeping in separate rooms. Hmmmmmmm...
Here is an excellent new blogpost by Sarah Jones on politicususa covering the Levi/VF controversy:
http://www.politicususa.com/en/node/7133
FINALLY, the whole issue is getting more attention!
I think the most revealing bit is Levi stating that Sarah's intention in this adoption scheme was to cover up Bristol's pregnancy. That only fits with Trig. There would have been no way for her to hide Bristol and fake her own pregnancy for the duration of a national campaign and then potentially (shudder!) national office. Secret service, anyone? And we know she was entertaining thought of VP going way back. He could only be talking about Trig.
Patrick.. enjoy your comments
Regina... maybe a post to expand on one of Patrick's comments.
Trig was a DS preemie, jaundiced, born with a heart defect (hole in heart).. and still was shown to the world the day he was born by Sarah's parents... and then taken to work two or three days later.
How can any sane person believe this story?
I have read most all of the posts at PalinDeceptions and most of the comments... this aspect of the story has not been covered well enough.
Patrick, I agree with you that finally this whole issue is getting more attention. You know, if the media did not want to discuss the fake pregnancy, they could have reported on the "wild ride" story, but they didn't. The media disgust me!
If this were Hillary Clinton or Michelle Obama taking a "wild ride" while pregnant, this would have been all over the media. Why are they giving Sarah Palin a pass?
Audrey, Patrick, Gryphen and all other bloggers should get a "Pulitzer Prize" for staying on top of this story. Keep it coming and don't give up. It's about to explode! I just heard Contessa Brewer on MSNBC discussing this story and what stood out to me is that she mentioned that Palin wanted to adopt Bristol and Levi's baby. This has opened the door for others in the media to discuss this. But will they? I hope so?
Also, my husband did not know anything about this story. All I had to do is show him the pictures of Palin and the timeline of the pregnancy and the first thing he said to me was "how could she have a baby and she was never pregnant". Why can my husband see this and the damn media can't.
Even though the "National Enquirer" is a gossip magazine, I don't understand why they haven't touched this story. This would have been a great story for them to cover, with all the pictures displayed on Palin Deceptions and other blogs. They did expose John Edwards when the media wouldn't touch it.
I know you bloggers are not in this for the money, but this stuff could have been sold to the "National Enquirer" for a bunch of money.
All of this is just my opinion.

Sarah didn't cook in any of her interviews. At best, she was trying to heat up some moose stew that her father made. When she did the interview with GVS, the kitchen was spotless, Sarah couldn't even concentrate on slicing or stirring while talking. The talking won out; she can't cook. She didn't cook.
To anonymous at 20:48. You are right. We are not in this for the money. For those of us who have followed this story for one year, we want the truth to be told. For me personally, I do not like hypocrisy. We see a lot of it in the GOP. We see it in Sarah Palin who is so strongly pro-life that she would deny others a choice. I am pro-choice but I am also pro-life. I also cannot abide child abuse (or people or animal abuse either). NEGLECT IS A FORM OF ABUSE! If other revelations in Levi's story are true, there has been a lot of neglect in Sarah Palin's household. And it may be continuing with Piper and the babies. Physical, emotional and spiritual neglect. Neglect of their education, neglect of their emotional needs. This is shameful and someone needs to find out the truth.
Hilarious new blog on Mudflats!

Daisydem, I totally agree with everything that you have said. I know the bloggers are not in this for the money and want the truth to be told. I've been reading these blogs for a year and just decided to post because I am sick of this story that the media will not touch. I've been very patient and will continue to be patient. The more I read these blogs, the more I am convinced that Sarah Palin is a hyprocrite and needs to be exposed.
I remember when Matt Lauer interviewed the Palins and I was sadden to hear that Piper missed school. My heart was broken and it still is. That child looks sad everytime I see her. Why the media is not all over this stuns me.

What a relief:
Sarah doesn't even know how to handle a gun.

Thanks Reesie in VA. There's another blog today addressing the issue of Piper (and maybe the other children too). Go to Blow-Pop-Palin and read. Namaste.
Looks like a lot of inside information is beginning to come out:
"Track was born AFTER the shotgun wedding,
The "Prego Heath", soon to be Palin, ran to the courthouse for filling nuptual paperwork but had to run home to get the right paperwork.
She can't get anything right!"
On page 2 of Huffington Post comments.
Interesting timing on an article on how some extreme elements of the Christian right pressure women, not only to not have an abortion but also to give the child up for adoption. Quite timely. Go to salon.com and scroll to the article on "Crisis pregnancy centers: Christian adoption racket" by Lynn Harris (http://tinyurl.com/knnz6y)
Thanks Daisydem, I read Blow-Pop-Palin. I want to know why is Piper alone in the kitchen with an apron on. When I was her age and wanted to learn how to cook my mother was there showing me what to do. If you go over to the "Sea for Pissing" (that is the name that I call them) they think it is okay for the kids to be raising themselves.

Headline at front page of Yahoo says,
"Levi Johnston: Sarah Palin wanted to adopt grandchild"
"she will be delivering a keynote speech in Hong Kong, China, later this month, according to her spokeswoman, Meg Stapleton."
So, Meg S. has actually confirmed that Sarah palin will be speaking in China??
