Oh, I feel honored, I got an email from a very important person!
Christopher Goff, Senior Vice President and General Counsel of Harper Collins wrote to me:
I act as legal counsel to HarperCollins Publishers. I have just learned that you have posted a substantial excerpt from our as yet unpublished book, Going Rogue, by Sarah Palin, on your web site. We view your posting of this excerpt as an infringement of our and Governor Palin's exclusive rights under copyright. Accordingly, we demand that you remove it from your web site.
Christopher Goff
Senior Vice President & General Counsel HarperCollins Publishers
10 East 53rd Street New York, NY 10022
Voice: 212 207 7127
Fax: 212 207 7552
So, in order not to be impolite to "Governor Palin", we deleted the scans of the pages we had posted.
But I have an open question for Christopher Goff:
Are you only going after anti-Palin bloggers?
"Wonkette" has posted three full pages of the book - did they receive a letter from you, too?
The "Drudge Report" has posted the content of three full pages - did they receive a letter from you, too?
On many other websites, the content of the book was discussed and extensive parts have already been published - did they all receive a letter from you, too?
By the way, Christopher: Maybe it would have been a good idea to do some basic fact-checking before publishing this "Book of Lies" which you have named "Going Rogue" - then all this trouble could have been easily avoided!
And Christopher: Can you please tell your author Sarah Palin that we are still waiting for a letter from a lawyer regarding babygate - regarding the FACT that Sarah Palin has faked her pregnancy with Trig. We have been waiting for over a year now!
+++
UPDATE:
Wonkette told me that they have NOT received a message from Harper Collins so far. They have published five scanned pages of "Going Rogue"!
It seems that Harper Collins doesn't like it if BLOGGERS go rogue on them!
After all, Wonkette was starting to put the excerpts up before we did!
+++
UPDATE 2:
Wonkette linked to us!
Andrew Sullivan linked to us!
Look at the "Feedjit" at the right hand side! It's going crazy!
For all newcomers who visit this site now: PLEASE look at our "babygate" documentation - it is a FACT that Sarah Palin has faked her pregnancy with Trig - CLICK HERE!
+++
UPDATE 3:
Harper Collins has also sent an email to our friend Celtic Diva, who had posted several pages of "Going Rogue" on her website, which I had provided to her.
+++
UPDATE 4:
This is the paragraph in Sarah Palin's book which caused so much discussion in the comments and which mentions a particular event regarding her first miscarriage:
"Todd flew home to be with me, when I had the D&C. When the doctor's bill arrived in our mailbox, it came with a typo. In the box describing the procedure, someone had typed, "Abortion." Instead of starting over with a fresh form, they painted it over with a thin-layer of Wite-Out, and retyped, "Miscarriage". For some reason it just felt like salt in the wound." (p.56, "Going Rogue")

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 393 of 393And don't forget, peeps, to order "Going Rouge; An American Nightmare" from Or books.
http://orbooks.com/
Order a few for Christmas gifts, esp for the evangelicals who need to be saved.
and don't forget to donate to your local library, to there again, help those less fortunate, educate themselves about the TRUE history of an American Liar/Rogue/Criminal.
Also, too, bring some to church with you. You never know who needs to be saved from the Cult. I'm going to give some to my church -- my father is the head of Children's Education in our church, so I'll be sure to have him share the info with the kids, lest they be indoctrinated by lies and the temptation of the devil. Wouldn't want an "army of the Lord" arming themselves against liberals as they are. Fight the lies.
Don't mention the Wasilla arsons, Track Palin, Portage, Michigan or Keith Johnston.
The children are off limits, especially the most recent rumor.
Six of one half a dozen of the other, what's the difference between your brand of "church" and Palin's brand of "church".
Not a whole heck of a lot I'd bet.
This is great drama and hilarity watching the Palinbots and the Anti Palinbots pissing all over themselves.
It sure does make for great theater, thanks all !
Ah, technically no one has infringed "Govenor Palin's" copyrights... Just saying....
HC legal advisor is just stoooopid.
I'm sure everyone knows this, but an email is not a cease and desist order. It is, at best, an attempt at intimidation.
Oops. Guess that didn't work.
Way to go Patrick! The best think any of us can do is lift the rock that Sarah is crawling under. She's not so pretty in the light of day.
Sarah's playing CYA. She has a bill for an abortion, someone (who? who?) whited it out either a long time ago or recently. It's quite convenient that the dr.'s office didn't create a new bill with the "correct" procedure ("miscarriage", according to Sarah). There's a copy of a bill for an abortion with Sarah's name on it floating around out there, but Sarah will say it was a mistake and produce the "whited out" version. Cover your a$$, Sarah.
We want you to know that those of us who are pro-choice support your right to choose, Sarah. The problem is that now you want to take away ours.
jk
we have tons of Balloon Juice traffic! I love Wonkette and Balloon Juice!!! Welcome, peeps!!
As posted by the Troll: "The fact is Patrick is a coward. He won't even give his name out. He won't say what country he is from. Why? Because he is afraid of any real world consequences his little blog could have. That's why."
Oh, poor dear. Jesse, you aren't familiar with the "Glenn Beck raped and murdered a girl in 1990" website? In answering to Beck's pathetic lawsuit, the website creator makes the excellent point that Glenn Beck [spit] not only pandered to the fears and insecurities of the lowest of the lowest (otherwise known as his "Base") but that he denigrated the letter of First Amendment law, and mostly importantly here (Pay here, dear Jesse) that he attracted even more attention to the site (in his case by filing the lawsuit).
So, while attemping to start - what, some sort of brain-dead Beck [spit] style inquisition here? - and tattling about the book review here on these pages, you have only attracted more attention to a worthy blog. Nice goin', chucklehead.
Dead Disgraced or In Jail:
Welcome! It's always nice to be playing with a wider audience. ; )
Why don't you ask Patrick if he attempted to ban me? Though I'm certain I could produce a screenshot on request.
Did you know that Alaskan Republicans admitted to have known the Sarah was never pregnant with Trig?
This from a previous post may be buried under by the HC request:
I received an e-mail from a very reliable source here in Alaska that there may be a story about to break on Sarah Palin's son Trig. The source received a hand written letter in the mail with the following statements:
Get word to S.P.
Mitt R. paid off
They have photos, copies + signed statement RE: Trig
The author "Tom" goes on to say:
With Palin's book coming out in a few days and who she has attacked, I would venture to say, if Romney has info on Palin, it came from McCain staffers who are outed in Palin's book and are part of Romney's campaign.
"Tom" is nobody else than Thomas A. Lamb, an Alaskan Republican who in 2006 stood for the Republicans against the Democrat Mike Doogan in the election for state representative in district 25 from Anchorage.
It should be noted that one of the three contributors of this right-wing blog is none other than Josh Painter, a leading Palinista and (former?) contributor to C4P who has his own pro-Palin blog "texas4palin"!
This started because Sarah Palin wrote in her book about a medical professional using WITE-OUT?
When is is telling stories about two miscarriages or abortions? Which was it?
Patrick, asap get to the subjects we all care about the most, like the MISCARRIAGE or ABORTION?
Please post the darn excerpts or pages as need be before they change them.
The more I read about the "White-out" theory... it sure does make perfect sense
She got her abortion bill home and went right to her desk... cover it with white-out - problem solved :D
But she is such a flook she will present it as fact one day. See! It is an official document that that nice nurse white-ed out for me.. oh shoot, what's her name... oh well she doesn't work there anymore anyways.. (she doesn't exist)
She truly is a weirdo, even if the story is "true" .. oddball
wigs, fiesty fb rants, snarly stabs at people during her campaign... she's a true goof
My goodness, you guys weren't kidding about the Feedjit. I thought it might have calmed down by now, but no.
Tks, Jesse!
Pat in Texas
Jesse
If I had a blog and you trawled it with your slime I'd try to ban you too!
So what if he tried to ban you....we will love him all the more!
Said nurse will suffer from mysterious "fire", no doubt. Or the Toad will be stalking her as he did Wooten.
Or maybe she was fired or promoted suddenly...like so many in the Palin Administration.
Hi, Sarah! We all know you're reading this.
They're coming for you, Sarah.
Does "Jesse" have any sort of life?
His blabbering is like me spending my entire weekend at Pee and Poo Sea and sitting there writing little snarky things all day long.. ohh wee what fun!
good lawd
He's like the weird nerd kid that wants so badly to play with the other playground kid but just can't quite fit in so sits over there and makes fun at everyone.
Afterall, negative attention is still attention ain't it?
thanks, Patrick, for trying to ban Jesse. All he's ever done here is disrupt and call names and be a typical Palin freak. Rude, allergic to facts, and incapable of debate.
Thanks, but no thanks, to that bridge to nowhere:-)
Anon@1:06 Yes, Thank you very well said...
someone has a copy with abortion written on it, and yes she wants to take our right to choose away!
Hypocrite!
Go Patrick and Regina!!! Palingates rules... Newbies, spend sometime reading and enjoy!
Jesse says:
Why don't you ask Patrick if he attempted to ban me?
===
Jesse, you are the little pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. You are the gift that keeps on giving. You are a one-person publicity agency.
NO one would want to ban you.
I am sure if you posted "part" of a page.. like sentences.. that would bypass any whatever it is Harpo is harping about
OR type it up yourself :D and post it
For Harpo to go after just you and diva sounds fishy.. like some Pee Pants figured a way to look "offical" and is now laughing that they made you jump
Either that or truly queen nutcase is behind it. Which means she is sitting there (once again ignoring her poor kids in her dark room with just the flicker of her computer screen and a scratch pad with psychotic scribbles) reading this! ha!
correction:
was: "When is is telling stories about two miscarriages or abortions?"
Which is it, telling stories about two miscarriages or abortions?
Wow, I stand corrected. I thought there was no way that this website had been singled out (or this one and Celtic Diva's). I think I gave HC way to much credit. Turns out they're under the square-nailed thumb of one of the nastiest bitches around. Poor Chris Goff, the sap.
Procedure: Abortion.
Wited out. No medical facility allows that.
Who would do such a thing?
Sarah Palin and her house built for free, that's who. So this pregnancy was during the time of the alleged affair with Brad. OK. Sounds about right.
You know, I'm pro-choice, so it's cool with me if she had an abortion. but what is NOT ok, is that she thinks she has the right to take that choice away from me, from rape victims, from young girls, etc. And what else is NOT ok is that she used that as the ONLY cred she had to get where she is.
IF she doesn't stand by what she says she believes in, then what exactly is her "cred"? though I wouldn't call having a belief cred for public office, myself. But then, I'm an elitist snob who believes in excellence rising to the top. sue me.
Considering how Palin fans react to people they don't like, people should keep their identity secret. Celtic Diva learned first hand of the way Palin fans react. They threatened her via email, letters and phone calls, even getting calls in the middle of the night.
Palin fans are some seriously sick individuals.
Who paid for her abortion, anyway? did the socialist government insurance we pay for pay for it or perhaps the socialist native insurance she has paid for it? The hypocrisy boggles the mind.
And after the got IM fired from his job after they sent slanderous emails and threatening phone calls to the preschool where he worked- threatening to KILL him in front of the children- yeah, I'd keep a distance from these knuckle-draggers. You've seen them at her rallies; not much upstairs, but a loaded gun in one pocket and white sheet in the other.
Don't mention the Dr.Cathy Baldwin-Johnson letter that is now under much more scruntiny for it's suspicious execution. What a misleading document! Why did they have it that poorly written. I always thought the highly awarded doctor was a professional. Who would think she writes like a middle school drop out.
I agree EyeOnYou .. and because her fans are so freaky
I actually do have an ounce of sympathy for Palin (even if she did create this freakshow)

Her fans remind me of the weird stalkers that stalk celebrities..
I bet there are quite a few nut cases with Palin shrines in their homes.. It would send a chill up my spine if I were her
and the book signing? Sure there are body guards but yikes! Think of the wing nuts that are going to come out into the daylight
I am speaking honestly here.. truly would be sad if something happened to her because of her freak fan base.. even if she is the cause
Many are just whacko but some truly seem creepily bizarre

yikes.. sorry my last posting went insane (just like her minions :D)
These are not people you would want to run into in a dark alley. or during their nightly internet date with Palin.
If you live in Wasilla you probably know the name of the doc that is accused of using whiteout. That is one famous doc in those parts and they are going along with being famous around the world for calling a Palin fetus "it." What kind of sap puts up with that crap and having their reputation tweaked? What other misdeeds did they take part in? I hope they all get the investigators on their case.
Palin turned on that doctor, known in Wasilla, and the hospital involved. The office workers and all should be deposed.
Dr.CBJ has so many honors some have been scrubbed from the internet. Would she use whiteout?
Just post two or three sentences. The one where she states she had D&C; the other where she states she received a bill for an abortion. Don't cut her any slack. Don't mention that she claims a "miscarriage." That's fair use.
0220: Not only fair use! Hardball!!
Do her fans think she actually reads the crap they post to her???
"Hi Sarah, I just bought a book about you and thought it was a good book but it was two reporters totally sayings how horrible you were. i am OUTRAGED by this. I suggest I need to research before I buy.I didnt even get through the first chapter. If anyone wants a book on Sarah PLEASE PLEASE research it before you buy. ...They were promoting it as a kind book of sarah and I was drawn in by this NEVER again will I NOT DO MY HOMEWORK BEFORE I BUY AGAIN.. Mrs Palin, I stand with you . These people have to be affraid shaking in their boots they know that the majority of the people believe in you and you are honest and just. AND THEY CAN"T STAND IT.. I SUPPORT YOU ,AND I PRAY FOR YOU. WE the PEOPLE in this country are not going to stand for this witch hunt any longer. look out in 2012 IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY.. THANK YOU MRS PALIN FOR YOUR HONESTY AND FOR BEING A TRUE AMERICAN."
RE: "We view your posting of this excerpt as an infringement of our and Governor Palin's exclusive rights under copyright."
Get a divorce and you become an ex-husband or ex-wife.
Quit your governership and you become an ex-Governor. As in, "Ex-Governor Palin". Continuing to refer to her as governor is a slap in the face to all those committted to serving as public servants in government.
Somebody back there said "Palin spins gold into shit" or something like that. Wow couldn't be more true.
1. Turned the McCain campaign into an embarassing disaster that is STILL being yakked over and over in the media
2. Messed up Alaska for years to come
3. Messed up Wasilla and saddled it with millions in debt, polluted it.
4. Messed up New York's 23rd district election for the GOP
5. Has badly disorganized the GOP and caused people to flee it in droves
6. Messed up her daughter Bristol's relationship and her life
7. Fell flat as a speaker in China and has messed up almost every important speaking engagement she's been booked for, causing problems for the promoters and organizers
8. Now this book - filled with errors and lies, Harper Collins is either really embarrassed by now or just shameless.
How much damage is she doing to Murdoch? Who in their right mind would ever do any kind of business whatsoever with this person?
Money grubbing power hungry faux christians, that's who.
Rumor has it that Katie Couric will release the entire Palin interview.
I'm thinking Palin is going to be very sorry that she started all of this.
Palin's fat face is the #1 story on AOL Welcome Screen
and of course it is "negative"

Palin Billboard Fight 'a Crusade' for First Amendment Rights -- Sphere News, Opinion and Analysis
Sarah Palin talking to Eddie Burke in about 25 minutes. Show's name: SUNDAY NIGHT CONVERSATION - Going Rogue with Eddie Burke. Is that a violation of Oprah's exclusive? Should Harper Collins know about this?
If anyone is traveling to the Mat-Su Valley you may want to find out the name of the hospital that uses wite-out. Perhaps there is another one nearby? In case of an emergency do all you can to go to non-wite-out using medical facilities.
Sarah Palin thinks nothing of destroying others and anyone that did her wrong is on her hit list for life. I live in a small town and people remember things about my life I long forgot. If I need to remember who took my tonsils out I know who to call. People have lost documents in fires and they just go to a few of our elders who have memories that put any elephant to shame.
I really don't get why Sarah Palin is slandering a medical professional and hospital like she is.
Dr CBJ really got thrown under a bus, didn't she?
Sooner or later she's going to tick off the wrong person. I know a lot of people in Wasilla still fear her, but someone eventually will crack. And by eventually, I mean very soon :)
@wes_ben said...
A really satisying release of the full Katie Couric will include John McCain watching each painful second and being repeated asked if Palin would be ready on day 1.
NEW UPDATE!
Once again, no matter how she spins things..
she always looks bad
So, say all the blaming of everyone is true.
It was the turkey camera man's fault a slaughtered turkey was in the background.
All the interviewers were really out to get her and managed to make her look like a fool.
The mccain campaign man really did manage to ruin her.
Say it all is true..
This woman is walking with a black cloud over her head
She has the worst luck EVER
If bad luck follows her so closely.. why would we want her in charge of our country?
She is cursed!
In the box describing the procedure someone typed "abortion," then whited it out (with a thin layer) and typed "miscarriage."
MISCARRIAGE IS NOT A MEDICAL PROCEDURE !!!!!
This:
Instead of starting over with a fresh form, they painted it over with a thin-layer of Wite-Out, and retyped, "Miscarriage". For some reason it just felt like salt in the wound."
Yeah... "someone"
Names no names... I bet there is a bottle of White-Out deep in her desk drawer with her dna all over it
What a goof.
Thanks for the update, Patrick.
In a way, the isolated paragraph has more impact than the page scan. (Sorry, jesse, but it's true.)
i have been watching the Feedjit for the past 15 minutes. It is amazing all the towns across america and internationally that are coming to this site. every second !!!
it has been over a year waiting for this moment.
from palindeceptions to palingates i have watched and read the story of the wild ride and the critical analysis by patrick et al.
this is a defining moment.
congratulations to jesse for opening that door. wow and folks are POURING in.
and thanks to patrick and all the readers and bloggers that have dogged this story for so long.
wow. WV = gracte (grazi aka thanks)
Possible Scenario:
She had an abortion
She complained and complained until someone changed "abortion" to "miscarriage."
It was a thin layer of Wite-Out. "Abortion" was still visible. Why, oh why, couldn't they have used a fresh form? THAT was the salt in the wound!
Actually, the impression I'm getting from comments here and on other blogs is that there is NO WAY a hospital would use wite-out. That pretty much leaves just the people that got the bill, Sarah and Todd.
Aaah, I see you are out there spreading smears and lies and going after kids. Don't worry, you just made the list out here in Knik Arm.
Does Jesse work for this blog? Good work, son.
USS Sarah Palin:
Sarah Palin does behave like a juvenile, but I don't think it is quite fair for you to call her a kid.
This is just so typical of Palin. She freaks out, flies off the handle, and ends up attracting attention to something that otherwise would have not been noticed by most people. Dingbat. By the way, where's Meg? I fear that she is in the naughty closet or something, since we've not heard from her in quite some time.
For anyone who wants to contact her to ask why she omitted Sarah's two "miscarriages" from her summary of Sarah's medical records, Dr. Cathy Baldwin-Johnson's fax number is 907-561-8170.
Jesse... THANK YOU
Regina and Patrick needed help spreading the story of the FAKE baby.
You help get many more thousands to come here and read about all her gates.
When Sarah Palin isn't a policy expert on the military her policy expertise goes to her RTL positions.
Rush Limbaugh is promoting her policies and saying this book is the best.
Sarah Palin is sharing personal stories, this is to be a true to life autobiography. Shouldn't she be using real names and places? Anybody can claim some store sold me a rotten tomato and called my cat an it. So what? That kind of thing can be an endless fantasy. How do you fact check someones imagination? If they have something to say they need to be honest and up front or the book is a sham. Nameless and no name places do not cut it. It is a scam artist at work.
If this is policy material all the more reason for Palin to be clear with names and places.
In this case many where she lives knows who she is writing about. They may be in on her schemes and go along with what she is doing. Let's say they weren't part of her misdeeds. Wouldn't they have a libel or slander case if they did not use whiteout or call the fetus an "it." as claimed?
I am wondering if a famous person wrote disparaging of a business I had going and me in a book like this. Maybe no one in Borneo knew it was me. Where it mattered, at my place of business and my home people would know. I would want to sue the jerk that used me or lied.
This book will be discussed all over the world. It is at the center of an important health care matter. How hard is it to learn the names of the people and places she is basing this on? It is egregious that she is not being forthright here.
I hope someone in power calls her out on this.
Wow - Karaganda, West Kazakhstan just scrolled by on the live feed.
Word-salad from the opening paragraph:
"I breathed in an autumn bouquet that combined everything small-town America with rugged splashes of the Last Frontier."
WTF?!
I worked as a case manager for a home and community based services program for elderly and disabled people (let's not get into Pie Sky) and we had to document absolutely everything (Pie Sky will be an epic fail for this reason alone). NEVER would we use white out because the files are reviewed (or could be reviewed at any time) by lead supervisors, team leaders, the department of social services or federal agencies. A simple line through the mistakenly written word so all can see. No big deal. Saying there was a thin layer of white out is unimaginable because even if this did happen before the precedent of striking a line through the mistakenly written word, why would it show up on a bill that way? Right, because it didn't happen.

Sarah probably didn't realize when she whited it out before she showed Toad,"look see I had a miscarriage!"
Wonder if the 2nd ed. will clear up that little "mistake"? Maybe the 1st ed. will be stopped until the 2nd ed. and all the "corrections" comes out?
Hmmmmm?
It's a shame we are not allowed to post on Jesse's blog as he is allowed to post here. I've tried to get a comment through for two weeks now and nothing shows up. You're a fraud Jesse, plain and simple. Just like your hero.
You come here and call people cowards for trying to censor you, all the while doing EXACTLY the same thing on your blog. The difference is you ARE allowed to post here. Your stupidity obviously knows no bounds. Congratulations you dolt, you're not only a HUGE hypocrite, you're helping to bring your hero down. Perhaps Sarah will let you visit her in prison.
WOW! Jesse, you really got the traffic flowing here! Amazing job!
Patrick, Kathleen and Regina, your hard work is getting noticed, the gates look like they're ready to crash wide open! :)
~trish
So amusing that Palin undoubtedly badgered HC about Palingate's. Palin thought she would use her big, bad strong arm techniques to scare this blog. Hahaha.....now all those people who have never been to Palingates will investigate this blog's claims of Palin's faux pregnancy. Way to go, Palin and HC! You just gave a huge publicity boost to the REAL reasons Palingates exists.
Palin invariably shoots herself in the foot and calls it OFFENSE. Gawd! What a brainless twit with one micron-thin skin.
So, I'm one of the new peeps, and found you guys through wonkette. I think I have the names of the Players right:
Jesse Cornish - What I love most about you rabid palinbot wack-jobs is that you are self destructing and are too ignorant to see it.
You chose to hitch your wagon to a loser and a lying, crazy one at that.
Great site regina and patrick! will have fun spreading the word about this great site to all my friends. Thank you for the wealth of information!
What an embarrassment and humiliation for the under a million people that make up the State of Alaska. We know there are many fine folks and brilliant minds in the state. For those that see Alaska by way of Sarah Palin, it looks like a moronic back ward lying frontier for crooks and charlatans. If this wite-out lie and rogue book doesn't give the state a back bone to do what they must to purge her and put her in her proper place in history, nothing will. Any state can make a mistake, they all do at one time or another.
Don't keep covering for this mistake called Sarah Palin. Sure she was the quitter governor for a short time, let that be a strange but colorful part of learning and a history you can gain a lesson from. Not more cover up.

Sarah has a very sensitive nose.
It is my understanding the CBJ only delivered Piper & "Trig". The "miscarriage" is supposed to have been before Bristol was born. So, which doctor is she talking about?
I MUST comment even before I read all of the other comments. I'm LOVING IT, LOVING IT, LOVING IT. :D
Huge smiles, here. Congrats, Palingates. Reg - dang. Everytime you leave town look what happens!!!! Patrick - spectacular.

It looks like I will have to "borrow" one of those rare FIRST EDITIONS if they don't go on sale.
A 2nd ed. and all the "corrections" is just not the same.
Plus "mistakes" often become more valuable.
Thomas Lambs post:
Get word to S.P.
Mitt R. paid off
They have photos, copies + signed statement RE: Trig
Was all a hoax!
I've worked at two ANIMAL hospitals and we were not allowed to have Wite-Out at our desks. At both facilities, we were instructed to draw a single line through the mistake, write "error", initial it, then add the correct word(s). The people who sent out statements would never have sent one out corrected with Wite-Out. Never.
I suspect Todd doesn't KNOW about the "abortion". See, todd rushed home to be with her....
he WASN'T there. During her affair with Brad.
She got pregnant and then knew she had to get rid of it...fake a miscarriage, to get some sympathy, but get rid of it NOW.
While this sounds like a soap opera, it's very common. Statistically, abortions by married women are done when the baby isn't their husbands or there are medical problems. It's pretty common. And even more common among "pro-lifers", who have to maintain their image.
There you go.
When I read that you received an email from a senior official from Harper Collins in the middle of a Sunday afternoon, I wondered if the email was legit. That is some strange reaction considering that other blogs were posting pages. So, either they sent a blanket email to each and every site posting so much as a quoted paragraph, or they were targeting a few select blogs.
You should say a big thanks to the Super Rat Fink Snitch. Look at the traffic it has produced. Look how many more people will read and become informed about Babygate. A blessing in disguise. What irony- by attempting to do something bad, it has turned into something good and unexpected.
I hope by now that you have notified all media, because Harper Collins looks the fool to single out two liberal blogs while others still post Palin's Pages. More than hypocrisy, that grist for the PR mill. And, any person who has been maligned by Sarah's book, misquoted or misrepresented should contact HC's legal staff (you have the email, phone and fax) and let them know that it works two ways. If they continue to publish information that defames anyone, with proof provided to the contrary, then HC ought to be held responsible for damages.
Karma is a bitch.
Loooong time lurker, first time poster....
First, congrats to Regina, Patrick, Kathleen (& the other Alaska blogs). It's about time the sh*t hit the fan.
Second, Andrew Sullivan just posted again, "An Open Dish Challenge" to SP to correct some of her lies.
It's going to be a fun week.
Lefty Lucy
Her fans remind me of the weird stalkers that stalk celebrities..
As do the bloggers who do nothing but write about her too.
Celtic Diva comes to mind, Jesse Griffin does too.
And now Anon @ 0308 is using Eddie Burke's tactics too.
Pass the popcorn please.......
In one of the quotes from the book (you'll find this at Huffington Post in their excerpts) Sarah has this to say about those rumors of "pornographic photos and videos:"
"A group of left-wing bloggers had been yakking about porn pictures and videos of me that they threatened would soon be released to the public.
"And those sexy videos were supposedly shot between which pregnancies?" I asked.
Nice try, Sarah. That's not what was posted in blog comments which was the only place where the topic came up (not on the actual main blogs themselves.) What was mentioned was the fact from an alleged insider type who claimed that both sides - Republicans and Democrats - had copies of sexually suggestive material that Sarah would not want to have released. I believe it was hinted that some might be photos and others might be videos, and that these were taken at two significant periods in Sarah's life - back when she was kissing up to producers trying to get steady work in TV and later on during the time period of an affair while she was married. Has nothing to do with any pregnancies.....
Unless the abortion she admits to having in her memoir (pardon me, the "D & C" that the doctors mistakenly typed as "abortion" on her medical bill) was related to one of the above situations? Hmmm.
Also, the insider never said that either the Repubs. or the Dems. were planning to release the material "soon" as she claims was said. Instead, the insider was talking about being puzzled that nobody had acted on this so far and was trying to figure out the strategy behind that - who was paying who off, or what interests were being served by protecting her.
Yet again, Sarah lies in her book. It's going to be a long week.
OMG. Someone on the Wonkette just posted this:
"Did anyone click through the babygate link? She wholly contradicts her version of her pregnancy that she told to Vanity Fair. Why doesn’t someone write down this woman’s lies for her to review? Is she expected to simply remember them all? Jeez."
See, it's spreading....
Hi Sarah! great job, Jesse! Self-destruct in 5...4...3..
Another point about all this I find strange. Usually, a doctor's office does not send a bill directly to a patient. If an individual is covered by an insurance plan, why would a customer receive a bill? Bills usually are sent directly to insurance companies with the policy information. I've never received a bill directly from a surgeon or my doctor's office. Unless it was a service that wasn't covered, like x-rays, etc.
Someone left Dr.CBJ fax:
For anyone who wants to contact her to ask why she omitted Sarah's two "miscarriages" from her summary of Sarah's medical records, Dr. Cathy Baldwin-Johnson's fax number is 907-561-8170.
Also hospitals and others in the area need to know about the concerns Sarah brought up.
There is much more about Dr.CBJ and will be more questions. If HC delays sales and goes to another printing we still need to know what happened. Who all has advanced copies and I hear the books are at the book stores ready to go.
Dr. Cathy Baldwin-Johnson's fax number is 907-561-8170. will know who is accused of doing the wite-out. She knows the accused doctor and more. She has been involved with Palin and knows how she operates. When McCain picked Sarah there was info on Dr. Cathy Baldwin-Johnson that was scrubbed. She is not someone who will say much until they have her under oath.
None of these people should be able to gain awards, money or political power by falsifying documents in any way.
The time to depose is nearing.
I thought that I would check out Wonkette and Drudge, both of whom still have quotes from Palin's Book on line. Drudge did not have an actual scan. What he has appears to be a transcribed portion of 3 pages, clearly violating the lawyer's idea of what can be posted.
Note to Patrick. Grab a screen shot with time stamp to show that Drudge was not sent the same letter. HC is either outraged by everyone's posting, or their concern is a little selective.
You might even copy Drudge's post of the three pages and send it to Harper Collins. Not to the lawyer, but to a couple of the high up vice presidents over that lawyer. They ought to know how that guy's dumb move is costing them PR and good will.
In case the book is recalled, do we have anyone with a copy of the 1st edition?
HC should be more concerned about being sued for libel and misrepresentation than about alleged, imagined copyright infractions.
I mean, geeze. The AP has fact-checked their book and already found numerous empirically proven factual errors.
And then Schmidt et al came out with the emails proving more lies.
CBJ might even pipe up now.
What a nightmare Sarah Palin is. lay down with her, wake up with fleas. And wig hairs.
anon 4.04
Yes we do!
If Sarah reads these blogs, why hasn't she gotten rid of her chicklet teeth yet? Hey, Sarah, you look like a horse with those teeth. You were so much cuter before. Why'd you go and mess up your smile like that? Didn't you see what happened to Hilary Duff with her chicklets? People still call her horse face to this day.
Glad you got your jaw tightened up and your midface lifted- it looks a lot better now. No more saggy, baggy dog look!
Instead of recalling the book, HC could print stickers with the word "Lie" and have the stores stick that over "Life" ... An American Lie instead of An American Life.

What about her dilated pupils???

Visit cool Inkspot blog to see more.
4:09, Hilary Duff is young. HOWEVER, she wised up and got the Chicklets reduced a couple of years ago. Sarah isn't as smart as Hilary Duff, though.
Way too late for a recall, the book is in stores now.
Whoopsie-daisy!
Aren't the chicklett teeth by Menards? I think they pay for the hockey rink with their ads. More good old friends, close neighbors, insiders with Palin get rich in Wasilla bull to pollute the land.
She got a new hockey rink and chicklett teeth. Can't give that up.
And that's saying something, cuz Hilary aint no brain surgeon. But I'm guessing she knows better than to use white out on her medical bills she wants to hide from her significant other...
Ha, over on Sarah's FB (per Bree Palin) someone suggests buying up as many copies of Newsweek as possible (as it is unflattering to their Queen). Unbelievable.
p.s., I'm amazed at how these people on her FB page use their full names. Are they that naive? Oh, wait.
@ 3:47
I don't think Thomas Lamb is saying the letter his source received was a hoax. But I am thunking my head on keyboard trying to figure out exactly what he IS saying, so go check it out:
http://thomasalamb.blogspot.com/2009/11/just-hunch-on-romney-and-palin-is-there.html
I thought it was Spenards...as in, free house Spenards.
There are many things Todd doesn't know.
I am OUTRAGED that Sarah and her henchmen are trying to silence you!
As long as:
1) give a quote
2) do not change ONE word
3) give proper attribution the quote
There is NOTHING wrong with quoting from Sarah's book!
I have been putting this:
Despite Palin’s words: “Don’t let anyone tell you to sit down and shut up” .. Sarah and her Publishers are trying to ’shut up’ a blog that has quoted her from her book …
see … http://www.palingates.blogspot.com
on several websites, and Huffpost but it's not getting past mods in many cases.
I will keep trying though, this is outrageous! They are trying to bully you!
Don't let anyone tell you to sit down and shut up! (Sarah Palin)
I am looking forward to seeing how the full interviews look on HDTV.
Dilated pupils and chicklets.
I hear Piper is dressed for her try out and Willow is ready for her fashion review. You don't go on TV so that people don't talk about you like that. You go for the attention or for some message. Critique is part of it.
Anyone seen Andrew Halco's recent post about Digging Two Graves?
http://www.andrewhalcro.com/monday_comment_digging_two_graves
Wonder what it means?????????
P.S. Word verification is "duckcan." I shot the duck and now it is the can. We eat, therefore we shoot ducks.
While you're watching in HD, check out the hollowed eyes (eye lift- long ago, before they discovered that too much left that hollowed eye look), the scars in her hair (what's left of it) by her temples, and the god-awful chimpmunk cheek implants. She looks JUST like Barbara Walters -- they must have went to the same surgeon. With all of the money she has that she fleeced from her cult, she could have at least gotten some GOOD surgery. Though I admit that her jaw and nasal labial folds look MUCH better now that she got them tightened.
When your looks are all you have, you better cling to them hard and fast, sister!
Not that her looks are the issue, but I find it hilarious that she's the Paris Hilton of politics and they both have wonky eyes. Sarah is cross-eyed and Paris has that one eye that's always partially closed. The Wonk sisters of Tabloid News.
He means, you dug a grave for your opponent and buried yourself at the same time.
She has no idea what's in store for her. She's a narcissist, and used to bullying her way around Wasilla. She's playing in the big leagues now and she's just not clued in. 'Course, you knew that.
4:30, thanks - that is extremely interesting. Gives me the good kind of goosebumps!
No one cares about some loser medical clinic or docter that uses WhiteOuts in the netherlands of a big state. Its no biggy. A lady has a rite to correct the fools. She a standup woman.
ditto on 4:37, quick google search: It means that in revenge, not are you only going to hurt your target, but yourself as well. Basically, no good comes out of seeking revenge.
This book is the literary (I use that term extremely loosely) equivalent of giving somebody a smartass comeback and regretting it the second it leaves your mouth. This being Sarah, though, she had time to think about it and still went ahead.
You know what's very strange!? Why would Lynn Vincent let that first sentence be published?? "I breathed in fresh air..." the whole sentence is off, it's gramatically incorrect and makes her sound like the ding dong she is. And HC didn't bother to fix it either. Were they trying to throw her under the bus? Ya have to wonder.
What we have here is a failure to communicate (with Sarah's brain). She played the victim and was vindictive and petty.
Sold people out who tried to help her.
Which we hear is what she's been doing her whole career.
This time, it will come back to bite her in the a$$. But she'll just use that to get more $$$$ from her Jim Jones flock of sadly misguided loons. Still, $$$ isn't everything.
As Jesus no doubt knew.
She doesn't have her self-respect, her honor, her dignity, or her reputation. Or any relationships of trust, according to her own campaign aides. Including her relationship with her husband and children. Now, that's sad.
And they call me an elitist.
Obviously some one cared enough about wite-out to bring it up in her biography. After all, when you have to squeeze your life into nder 400 pages you don't mess around with trivia.
Do you have any idea of the work that CBJ has done on behalf of abused, neglected and at-risk youth ?
Anon, 4:50, publishing is very competitive, and only the smartest, most accomplished people get hired. Murdoch may have decreed that the book be published, but I guarantee you that some of the "underlings" who were doing the actual editing took great joy in letting the stupidity show.
yes, Wilbur. We do. Does Sarah? Why is Sarah throwing a good doctor under the bus with her wild ride lies - saying CBJ told her to fly for 11 hours when she was leaking amniotic fluid! And then saying she said "there's nothing alive in there" or whatever and then the wite out scandal. We know Sarah gave CBJ a bunch of rewards, but were they worth this? A reputation is worth more than money.
Wilbur, if that's the case, then it's time she stops being Sarah's patsy and comes forward with the truth. She knows the lies.
@3:53
F.Y.I. It's $arah Palin who is creepy and asks like a stalker. Most of these bloggers are private citizens, who have no intention of running for president. Palin on the other hand, wants to be the president, and yet, she resorts to ridiculous junior high antics to get even with, and smear her critics, and her sick obsession with bloggers is also disturbing. She has already abused her power before, by harassing a state trooper while she was the governor, now she is harassing bloggers! It just shows how vindictive she is. It is also sick the way she is still obsessed with some bullshit that happened over a year ago! She is petty, and thin-skinned. She's a whack-job!

You idiots are clueless! So much so its almost PAINFUL!
A lady...???
Has a rite??? (right...idiot)
Yeah to correct a mistake...except she wants to take that RIGHTaway from everyone else.
You must be one of the Neanderthals she talks about...
What is happening with Celtic Diva?
CBJ told a woman with previous miscarriages bearing a DS baby and leaking fluid at 35 weeks to get on a plane from Texas to Alaska and then mosey right past the neo-natal intensive care unit to a little local hospital that's not even rated to have twins born.
That's really taking care of the at-risk youth.
That's weird...Diva site is down!
from Halcro's blog:
"From the brief passages that Palin has written about me in her book, the term unmitigated lies, narcissistic delusions and libel came to mind first."
This is my hope - the million$ she makes from the book of lies will be spent fighting the libel suits that are sure to be filed (by the multitude of persons she has defamed).
Diva's site is fine that must be a bad link.
Her followers better be prepared to dish out a lot more cashola for Queen Esther. she's gonna need it for all of the libel suits.
Course she still has the $ from SarahPac and ATF, but she doesn't need to remind THEM of that.
Pay up, biotches!

You are so true, Wilbur.. The Palin kids should be more thankful! Sarah has someone to blame for her kids upbringing for the next book.
For those having trouble with Diva's site - If you are just seeing blank space instead of articles, click on "Home" and that should fix it. Worked for me.
Something just occurred to me. Did Scarah possibly go to a planned parenthood clinic for her D&C abortion? And make up the doc check up, nothing there story?
Say No:
I don't think any PP clinics doing abortion until last year in Anchorage.
She could of went to a private clinic/dr. under her "maiden" name like she did for the sonogram. Also too this was(supposedly) after Trac was born,so she might have been known as a sportscaster or Miss Wasilla wherever she was. I don't think she was in politics. Something that needs to be checked out when the book drops, time frame.
ANON 4:57 - LOL!!
Patrick, I've never seen your site so busy- Congratulations! My guess is "someone" googled "Palin Blog", and yours came up because of the first five letters of the name of your blog. Either that, or since parts of the book have already been put on other sites, it isn't passing the "sniff test", and they're looking for the truth.
That's the ONLY reason I can see for it.
God Bless You, Truth Warrior!:=)
CBJ is an enigma. I have known of highly respected professionals who after distinguished careers went to jail. No one knew what they were hiding. If CBJ did not have her own secrets to hide, I don't know that she would allow SP to use her.
I don't trust the front she puts on. She did get awards from SP. I hear where they live is one of the worst parts of the USA. Dope is a huge problem. Too many babies are born and die to unmarried teenagers, it is one of the ugliest places you could imagine. None of the leaders have changed things or helped that much. They make money for themselves and they give each other awards. It is hell for babies and teens with the drug problems and home schools with parents that don't proper supervise. These teens are left alone. SP and CBJ have written their own praise but they haven't done much to help those that need it.
The church problem in that place needs to be investigated. As is coming out, CBJ has to do with adoptions and the business looks shady. She could be part of using those poor mothers to get their babies. Some real evil things go on with the Christian adoptions that go black market. Too many let breeding go on unsupervised so they have something to market. It is not looking good for CBJ. The fact she has no interest in clearing her name should tell you something.
Good people clear their name. When more people learn more of the facts around all this they will want these people in jail.
The comments at Celtic Diva give a picture of the activity on a palin-friendly site targeting palingates and divasblueoasis with comments about getting the info to Harper Collins. But Diva herself brushes off the suggestion that HC acted on that alone, saying that Palin must have been the one to choose the sites to get the HC letter.
I agree with Diva's conclusion.
Nice to see the Wasilla, Alaska arrivals on the feedjit. Hope the palingates site gives them the courage to do what needs to be done.
Congrats to all at palingates (and hat tip to jesse cornish). To Harper Collins Sr. Veep: the impact of your letter is far greater than you ever imagined.
"Do you have any idea of the work that CBJ has done on behalf of abused, neglected and at-risk youth?"
yeah wilbur, we do. which makes it very curious that she is the palin family physician. what's the connection? ha!
Palin, her cronies, her minions and her groupies are so dumb.
They have no idea how to keep things unseen and heard. No one would have suspected much about Trig's birth if she had just had a simple announcement rather than the ridiculous "wild ride."
Except she's too dumb to realize this.
"Mr. Goss and HarperCollins: HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE PALIN'S BITCH?"
Palin has her hand in it. I'm going with that conclusion.
Cathy Baldwin-Johnson, Sarah's doctor who shares her faith and worships at the same church.
Sarah could have been "pregnant" for whatever length of time made her feel good, mental disorders are unpredictable.
Whatever motives or disorders; She produced a baby. How did she get that baby?
Was the mother of the baby killed or died of natural conditions?
Did the mother gave up the baby voluntarily or was she coerced?
Was the mother homeless or in prison and the baby stolen from her?
Did Sarah get that baby by a legal adoption?
Adoptions, legal adoptions happens everyday, so does kidnapping and forced illegal separations of mother and child.
How did Sarah obtained Trig?
Can social services confirmed that Trig belongs to the Palins by legal means?
What authorities investigate the conditions of adoption rings?
Charlatans like Baldwin-Johnson are worse than out and out creeps like Charlie Manson. Doing wrong is not right because you have a nice personality or education. It is more lowlife to abuse all the good you were given in life. What are her motives? Something is very wrong with what she is doing. No, she was not able to even help the affluent families, like the Palins. She has been a dismal failure for the rich and the poor of Wasilla.
CBJ was recognized as an outstanding physician and care worker long before Sarah Palin came along.
What a bunch of rubes, most of y'all have been following this woman now, for what, a year, and all of a sudden you're all experts on all things about Alaska ?
Get real.
As my friends down in Homer say, Shannyn who ?
Man, things are fcking fun around here the last couple of days! Damn!
Palin's head is going to explode.
Gotta love it.
Thank you Forever Anonymous for saying what others are trying to say. Some of it is too dark and I don't want to go there. It must be done because terrible wrongs have occurred and it will not end if people won't look. I hope it will be soon when the people who know the church, Palin and BaldwinJohnson can speak truth to power.
I can't explain it, okay.
One anonymous poster said that good doctors go bad.
That would probably be the most likely scenario here.
Look, I don't believe the Wild Ride® story either.
Something doesn't square, and my guess is, and it's a much more highly educated guess than Jesse's, that's for sure, is that the truth will come out, and when it does it's still not going to bring her down.
Max Blumenthal gets it right, no matter how hard you guys hit her now, it will only make her stronger.
Good luck with that !
Nader in 2012 !
Sarah Palin is a coward.
Telling the truth is the easiest and ultimately the best thing to do. People are sympathetic if you admit to mistakes.
What's Palin's excuse for all of the lies, deceit, deception and fraud?
Palin is at best a coward and at worst a sociopath - or both.
Sounds like bumpit Barbie is very afraid of Palingates. Why is she so upset over a few pages of a book that will be released in 2 days, seems like free advertizing to me. Keep it up guys, you have Sarah running scared.
No one is saying CBJ didn't have talent or wasn't recognized.
She is the one who is behaving like she has something to hide. Palin was always an idiot, she had less to lose. It is even more outstanding and noticeably when a seemingly intelligent churchgoer goes bad.
She needs to explain the new things Palin is bringing up in the book. She needs to explain that suspicious letter that it is said she wrote. If she is going along with a fake someone else signed her name to, that is a crime. Whether or not the election was lost, it is a crime to fake a letter to gain an elected position.
If the FEC is lax and letting fraud go unchecked they need a spanking, too.
The wild ride story is about as insane as the square squishy prego belly Palin wore beneath the flashy scarves and black outfits.
wv: pader--as in one who uses a faux belly pad.
bumpit Barbie is mortified of Palingates. She didn't mention Levi and I haven't heard that she mentioned the arson of Wasilla.
What she leaves out is more significant then what she drivels over.
I have to admit that not having been on the tubes all weekend that I at least quickly skimmed through all the comments and I am thrilled to see many of SP's lies being called out.
A few clarifications tho - a miscarriage IS called a "spontaneous abortion." And yes, a procedure is often performed after that called a D&C. A D&C is also what an "elective abortion" is called. Nonetheless, for many years medical billing has been done by electronically generated forms. Those forms do not go to the patient, but rather the insurance company and remain on file as official patient record. The patient, if at all, would receive a different invoice from the provider that would contain their portion or co-pay of the procedure. Even if the insurer covers 100% of the procedure, the insured typically receives an explanation of benefits (EOB) stating all of those details. Considering the trail above makes it even more ludicrous that Palin would have received any type of invoice that had "white-out" on it. The number of duplicate copies (and let's consider that no one has used typewriters to produce these invoices for oh so many years) that would have been automatically generated and sent to providers, records and subscribers (generated by a computers and electronic billing, etc.)makes this claim so incredibly unbelievable that one has no choice but to consider what, in fact, she is trying to cover up. An abortion is a billable medical procedure (elective). A miscarriage may or may not be. If the patient arrices at the ER in progess, it would be billed as a spontaneous abortion and then a D&C may or may not be billed at a later time, if needed. Since I haven't read exactly what she says, I'm just putting this out there.
Now, the letter from Dr. CBJ. Considering the length that she went to in describing Trig's birth and reporting on Palin's other pregnancies, it makes no sense whatsover that she did not describe Palin as having had seven pregnancies which resulted in five live births! This is the way that all OB/GYN histories are routinely reported! If memory serves me, CBJ mentioned nothing about those other pregnancies at all. As someone who has worked in medical fields (administrator, billing and as a provider) this is highly suspect, especially for a document that was supposed to be an overview of a candidates medical health. She certainly mentioned a great deal about the five pregnancies that supposedly led to five births and a great deal of detail about the last one. Just doesn't match up folks. And in everyone's hyper state (derserved, props) about so many other things being fact checked here, well, I didnt' see anyone else bring this up.
I want to give Patrick, Kathleen and Regina big props here for getting the recognition you so well deserve and I for one am impressed with your dedication to fact checking and awesome documentation. This is the prime blog for putting together the airtight story. Way to Go!!!
Susan in MD
Just want to join the chorus in thanking Jesse Cornish. Gee, I notice that he has not appeared at the pee zoo to claim his accolades for bringing about this firestorm. I hope they did not ban him - would be so unfair and so
un-christianlike.
"PEC" is taking all the credit over there - for their perceived "big win" against palingates.
Wilbur,
It is a known fact about the drug problems, religious fanatics, busing children around to protest against others having rights, high birth rates for the unmarried, rape, incest and abuse in Alaska (to name a few). The Mat-Su Valley is among the most problematic in Alaska for all these and more.
Look at the results of what these women have done. That is not to say they did not do anything good. I'm sure the home for abused children that Cathy is associated with looks nice and has all the trimmings. Without an investigation no one knows what actually goes on there. In Alaska and the Valley rape, incest and abuse are not getting the attention needed to educate the people in a way for improvements. The area acts like children of the corn or something worse. They are frozen in fear and can't speak. When Sarah Palin exploits her children in public they look like a cult and not natural or normal children.
When the truth comes out are people going to be that surprized that there is something behind it all like the strange people with the FLDS cult? Happy looking children and obedient mates are not always as they appear.
I get the "when the truth comes out, it won't bring her down" to a point. There are powers that will keep her going because when she goes they will take a hit. She does not look like someone with staying power, it may not be over night but I think she will go down in a big way. Everything about her says "speed freak." They are invincible until the end.
I'm pretty sure HIPPA or any other privacy BS isn't going to protect CBJ from releasing an innacurate, incomplete (at best) and certainly deceptive medical report on someone a trying to be a heartbeat away from the Presidency. Seems to me like she has a lot of explaining to do to the American people. The AMA should be looking into this as well
From one of $arah's 'bots at the Ocean of Urine:
"Sarah is right.
That should be the default reaction to Sarah.
If I don't agree at first, after thinking and understanding, I realize, Sarah is right.
I learned that if Sarah does something that I don't understand, or would have disagreed with, I should wait and watch and learn, because, almost always, I will learn that... by golly, Sarah was right.
Now, if I don't understand something Sarah does, I know that I just don't understand it yet. When I do, I will probably say, Sarah is right.
So many pundit say, "Sarah is wrong," when the truth is that they "don't understand." Pundits need to drop the hubris and learn to say, "I don't understand, but maybe Sarah is right." In time, after they are wrong 100 times, maybe they will learn.
I am a fan of Don. This isn't really about him. His point is generally true, but Sarah is unique. The old rules of thumb don't apply.
But Don, it was the AP that declared war on Sarah, long ago. How should a person deal with an enemy, for they decided to be her enemy? Silence? Appeasement? Truth? Sarah said, if I die, I die, politically speaking and I won't sit down and shut up. She was honest. The AP can lie, Sarah will tell the truth. Battle was joined long ago."

Yep, she is a cult leader.
It is one thing to see adults taken in by a cult, something else to see the children. Now with the latest rumor I don't know I want to see Willow and Piper tomorrow. I hope it isn't true, the thought it could be is too painful.
The happy perfect family.
I knew Arianna Huffington when she was going through a similar stage of life. The perfect family, perfect children, perfect marriage. We knew what was behind the act. It seemed like forever before the LA Times took care of business.
I just returned from a friend's house. She works for a doctor. Without prefacing the question I asked, "Are you allowed any wite-out in the offices?" She said "Oh, absolutely not." She went on to say that that was almost the first thing she learned when she went to work there. If you make a mistake you are to draw on clear line through the mistake, then write "error" and your initials, then followed by the correction. Guess $arah might not have known about those set in place procedures. OOPS.

I'm wanting to think that's actually a parody.
"Mussolini is always right" became a slogan of Italy.
It was subsequently parodied in Animal Farm when Boxer the horse adopts two maxims:
- I will work harder
and
- Napoleon is always right
The wording makes me think someone has read the latter.
At least I hope the post at C4P was a parody of one of the two and someone is toying with the Palinites.
The more I think about it, the more Sarah Palin reminds me of Animal Farm. It's not exact, but I think there are some parallels.
do all pregnant women slip a note to their doctor? Or do they call for a appointment.If I'm in trouble and need help I'd slip the note, seems like Palin let something slip her, She slipped a note.Not a appointment or Dr. I'd like to make a appointment with you but a note. Yep that's how it's done. Note slipping.
I don't have a TV. I sure would like to see her in HD. If any one can get pictures, especially when she makes those weird faces, please post.
She has on make-up and you can't tell if she is actually sallow.
Check the pupils. Dilated? Constricted? Piper? Willow? I'll never forget stone cold out Tripp when Bristol exploited him for her fake campaign. I wouldn't put it past Sarah to pimp any of them.
Thank you.
What a day (and night) it has been. I've used info here to Tweet, etc. Oh yes, also sent an email to Oprah, asking whether show still plans to air Palin interview, seeing as how some of Palin's memoir "facts" are in question. Asked about CBS policy regarding knowingly airing false info--in light of the AP article this weekend.
Hope you are having sweet dreams of Palin-style Thanksgiving turkeys, Jesse. BTW, thanks.
Palin in the book admits herself that she is secretive. Especially when she perceives that she might be in line for some criticism.
Case in point - when she says that she found out that she was "pregnant" with Trig she decided to keep it from everyone, including her family, because she thought that she would be criticised because she was a woman Governor. She kept her "pregnancy" quiet because she thought that she would be a target.
Now imagine what she would do if her unmarried daughter was pregnant? How far would she go to cover that fact up? I think that we all know, don't we?
Sarah Palin, as evidenced in her book, has great difficulties in dealing with any sort of criticism. Sarah Palin and her fans believe that she is untouchable and that she is "always right".
Can you imagine living with such a person? Being exposed to her 24/7 must be a tribulation in itself.
And for the record I do not believe the "wite-out" fabrication but I do think that it is possible that Sarah Palin would amend such a document in order to persuade not only others but herself that what was originally on the bill was an error. Something "wited out" and so it did not exist. Was no longer true. However, like the transparency of the "wite-out" the truth still shines through and no masking can cover it up. Sarah's hypocrisy, like Carrie Prejean's, shines through for all of us to see.
On a sidenote, I find it interesting that Palin has on the exact same jacket for both Oprah and BW interviews-just in a different color. Who does that? Oh, I like that, just give me one in all different colors? She has a lot of money now, you would think she could have found a different jacket.
Over at Alaska Repot, who is Dennis referring to that is pregnant now? I hate to even guess. If it is who I think it is , this is a tragedy.
Too bad attorney Goff's first name isn't Jack.
"""It's a shame we are not allowed to post on Jesse's blog as he is allowed to post here. I've tried to get a comment through for two weeks now and nothing shows up. You're a fraud Jesse, plain and simple. Just like your hero.
You come here and call people cowards for trying to censor you, all the while doing EXACTLY the same thing on your blog. The difference is you ARE allowed to post here. Your stupidity obviously knows no bounds. Congratulations you dolt, you're not only a HUGE hypocrite, you're helping to bring your hero down. Perhaps Sarah will let you visit her in prison."""
Anonymous, Any comments I have in moderation that I find I post as long as they do contain offensive language.
Now, sometimes it takes me a while to get to them. However, there is no need to get mad on your part.
You know Patrick, you give me too much credit, credit I don't deserve. I certainly did not alert HarperCollins, and I am not the only one monitoring this blog. I seem to be the only active sane poster here, but that's another story.
You know who you remind me of?Bennett.
The only reason Jessie is stickin' around here is he knows the Palin story is going to blow
Biting his fingernails every minute when a new post comes up
He just can't stay away!!
If this site was just a bunch of nutcases blabbing about fairy tales.. makes no sense.. is full of silly fabrications..
Then why stick around.. or err.. why does ole' Jessie "live" here
He seems to comment faithfully every hour
It is just a little ole' blog... out of the bazillions on the internet..but Jessie has parked his butt right here
Why Jess?
Are you worried you might miss something if you step away?
I peek over at Pee Pee land a few times a week.. but I nevah comment and nevah sit there more than 2 min
because the site is a joke
Too many flying brain screws for my taste
But you like to sit here and engage in conversation...
This little old blog full of petty speculations must get a widdle under the skin, eh?
You know who you remind me of Jesse Cornish? Lydia Bennet.....
Well guess what no one here is jealous of your match made in heaven to Sarah Palin. No one!
Susa in MD:
I did bring your one poit up - on Sat I think, about the leeters "G" and "P" which are a standard part of any women's health istory. G is the number of times you are pregnant and P is the number of times you gave live birth. I think this is a big easons Sarahs med recs were never releaed: her numbers won't match he rtories. She wsnts us to believe she is a G7P5, but maybe is a G6P4, but who really knows. Her official story now is G7P5.
Too much wite out would be needed to to amend her records which is why they were never released. Also, too who knows what else - mentsl health issues?- may be in there.
And as for CBJ and her letter, the fact that two miscarriages are not mentioned when the focus of the letter was mainly on Trig's birth - speaks VOLUMES. And makes CBJ look more the fool for giving permission to fly on a plane.
This is so much fun to watch the truth unfold!
Sorry for all the typos above. Did not proofreader . Now posting from train. Cracking up about slipping a note to her doctor. How high school is that? She is so stuck in a previous developmental level.
To Susan in MD, the situation as SP described it was not a spontaneous abortion. Her story is that the fetus was not alive; she could have waited for it to expel but chose to have a D&C. As everyone agrees, a miscarriage is not a procedure.
The questions about the CBJ letter are important. Even if what Sarah is now saying were true, the letter would be deceptive on its face. Aim some fire at CBJ; she deserves it for keeping this hoax secret.
Personally I think that the whole point of the miscarriage/abortion mention in the book should be to ask "why" it was brought up.
There was absolutely no reason to bring it up. Unless she spoke in great detail about each of her pregnancies, then what would be the point of her bringing this information up in her book, sharing it with everyone.
She does it for a reason, and the question is what is the reason she felt the need to make this information known.
Is she worried about someone revealing this information and it being damaging? Is she worried that the truth will come out about an abortion and she is revising the story before it comes out so she can claim she has already told people about what "really" happened, in an attempt to lessen the damage it might do to her "pro-life" cred?
Make no mistake, this was offered up for a specific reason, especially considering how little was offered about her medical history in that letter released for the presidential election.
Regina & Patrick... hope the blog had record numbers of visitors.
The fake baby story needs to spread to more people.
For some reason I think the Daily Dish will do more posts on this soon.
NEW POST UP!!
Yep, got to agree with Eye on you...
she is telling "HER story" so when it comes out...that she had a abortion, she will have her side presented. Someone already mentioned that a Writer stumbled on this info while researching a book about her. There are two that I know of...Geoffrey Dunn and Joe McGinnis recently in Alaska researching their books, very recently Joe was still there middle of Oct.
There is no need to even mention this "abortion" oopsie typo white out mistake! And her other "miscarriage"! Someone's got the goods on her and she is banking the bots are too stupid to know, about how white out isn't allowed in ins/med. billing/dr. office and bots are too stupid to know a miscarriage is a condition not a procedure, and Toad probably didn't know either. That is why she is trying to get this blog to sit down and shut up! But WE WON'T SARAH! SUCK IT UP BUTTERCUP! You had 1 possibly 2 abortions and its going to come out!
See Andrew Halcro today? Better dig 2 graves, lol!
Here' MY take on the med bill. It did say 'abortion' because she had one (isent that around the time of brad Hanson?). She told toddy she miscarried. He's not the sharperts tool in the shed, and believed her. Bill comes, it says the truth. She whites it out (although most doctors and hosptials use computers since about the mid 80's to do the billing). She goes to her old college typewriter and tyes in 'misscarriage'. Toddy is none the wiser, she saves some face. However, she also knows this might get out, so is doing her pre emptive stike.
I'm sure HC will now come after me, a private citizen with a private opinion now that I've let the cat out of the bag.
EOY and many others, I agree. Sarah bringing up the issue of Sarah’s previous abortion, er, “miscarriage”, without any previously known mention of it anywhere, seems to be a pre-emptive strike against a forthcoming exposure. But really, Sarah, wite-out? That may pass as acceptable by her ignorant minions, but it did not pass the sniff test by all of the intelligent people here. I believe Armchairjane in the previous thread was the first to point out that miscarriage is not a procedure, but abortion IS a procedure. By using wite-out to cover “abortion” and over-writing it with “miscarriage” instead of the D&C (or (D&E) procedure, it clearly shows that it was not a medical office that made that change.
It almost appears that Sarah made that change before hubby saw the statement. And if it was a billing statement from a doctor’s office, that seems to indicate a cash transaction, not through the insurance company. If you want to keep something secret, pay cash and don’t go through the insurance company, right Sarah?
And Sarah, having an abortion does not make you a bad person or condemn you to hell. For whatever reason, that was your choice to make that decision in your life. But your hypocrisy in condemning others and pressing for laws to outlaw abortion and deny other women a choice in their private lives is outrageous.
ProChoiceGrandma,
Thanks for the shoutout! I am a big fan of yours, and as always you are getting to the central point here, regarding Sarah's hypocrisy and her feeling that she is entitled to try to interfere with other women who need to make hard choices.
Pro Choice Grandma & Armchair Jane, You are two of my favorite posters, because you make such wise comments. Thanks very much!

That's Zaki trying to be cute, showing the world once again what a great reporter he is.
Lots to discuss.
First, I would not have taken the letter from the HC lawyer too seriouly. I would have countered with a reply saying that the posting constituted fair use, and asking the lawyer to please explain the basis for seeking to control such use. But I don't blame Patrick for taking it down either.
If accurately quoted, the key aspect of all of SP's statements in her book is that they are UNCORROBORATED. She "secretly" bought a pregnancy test? In typical fashion, everything from her is "take my word for it" with enough detail to be plausible, but not nearly enough to allow for corroboration. Since she didn't actually write the book, it's just a work of fiction as told by Sarah Palin. And we know Sarah Palin tells stories.
The white-out story is, of course, nonsense. She doesn't reproduce the document in question. But if what she admits is true, there is a document out there that states she had an abortion. If SHE was the one who used the white out (later intending to release the document), that would give her a motive to fake a pregnancy with a fetus known to have DS in order to inoculate herself from the earlier procedure.
Nothing has really changed in the central quest, except she continues her pattern of unsupported, self-serving drivel. She needs to be cross-examined about:
a) Why she decided to deceive everyone about the Trig pregnancy since it would necessarily become public anyway;
b) Why, if her water-breaking and contractions were not serious enough for an exam before the Wild Ride, she went straight to Mat-su Hospital, the farthest possible location where she could be checked;
c) Why she has never produced any indisputable evidence that she was pregnant with Trig, although such a high-risk pregnancy would produce a paper trail a mile long.
I doubt any interviewer will ask her those hard questions, despite the invitation her book tour presents.
Until we get such proof, I'm calling Sarah Palin a liar.
Dan
Dangerous? THE Dangerous?! Where have you been?!
Dangerous,
I have nothing against you personally, but let me say straight away that Willow-theories are NOT appreciated here on this blog.
The release of Dr. CBJ's medical disclosure for VP candidate Sarah Palin (did not?) reveal any miscarriages? If it had, that would have been to SP's advantage as it would have increased her image as a Madonna, who wasn't using contraceptive, and who wanted more children. It would have really pulled the emotional strings of her base. Having miscarriages would have furthered her appeal to pro-lifers everywhere.
So why didn't she allow this info to come out back then?
I find it so fascinating that $arah spent 8 pages bashing Katie Couric and yet goes into NO detail about all the allegations and proof that she is not the biological mother to Trig. She spent no time being upset about Palingates, Palindeception, or Breepalin? It seems her silence on this shows shows us this is the truth. S.H.
Patrick, I wonder what Mr. Curvers would have to say about your lying?
You've got an ego boost from apparantly breaking copyright law. Now just don't let it get to your head. I still await your indisputable proof.
Hahaha
Gawker is now posting some of the pages:
An FU to HC, from Gawker
Jesse C., how much would it cost to have you do PR for my blog? You boosted the traffic here so well! What are your current rates?
As many of you are aware, various online and old school publications have been fact-checking the book, Going Rogue whose authorship is attributed to Sarah Palin, former Governor of Alaska. You may also be aware, that several people who were written about in this book were factually misrepresented and believe their reputation and good standing in the community have been damaged.
As a True Patriot who cherishes my first amendments RIGHTs, I have exercised my Freedom of Speech and have emailed Mr. Goff of HarperCollins the following:
-=-=-=-=-=-
"Wouldn't it be ironic if Ms. Palin went ROGUE on the book tour and diverted from the carefully scripted sound bites that HC and the media advisers have so carefully crafted? Steve Schmidt was very wise to advise Ms. Palin to stick to the script.
Going rogue, of course, brings some very real risks. Including, but not limited, to actionable events.
Controversy may sell books, but it also incites those who have been libeled to seek lawyers."
-=-=-=-=-=-=
In my opinion, allowing Sarah Palin to speak without a script could only further anger and potentially damage a number of people.
For my own part, I will not be buying this book nor will I borrow and read it. Furthermore, in protest of the poor journalistic principles (and lack thereof) I am also boycotting all other HarperCollins publications.
In Alaska, the ground is rumbling and the steam is rising and it's not coming from Augustine.
