No one wants certain th...@ 30 November 2009 18:35 <br /><br />No one wants certain things to be known or made public. That is not always reality. You don't need to be a public person or famous to be in the news. Ship happens! It is how you handle yourself. Famous or not.<br /><br />Bristol may remain a pathetic person in private and public but it is her own doings that cause people to stop feeling for her. If she is innocent she needs to tell her story. She needs to tell it either way. Like Todd, she may be charged with contempt and who knows what before it is all told. The Palins are lowlife, Bristol did not fall far from their tree. As an adult grifter she must pay her dues like the others. <br /> <br />As it is now, she looks like an adult partaker in the biggest fraud of the century. I have no sympathy for criminals or for those that stay silent when they could help the truth. If she tells her story, we may learn she was a victim who deserves some consideration. Charles Manson's childhood was more pathetic, it is not an excuse. Bristol's treatment of her friend since childhood, Levi's girl Lananci, and other famous Bristol doings screams she was born to be a grifter for life. Save your feelings for Trig,Tripp and th Balloon Boy. The children that are being taught to lie by those like Bristol. You don't see her standing up for Trig or Tripp when it comes to abuse and neglect (currently on the campaign tour). The whole family needs to come up on charges for what they do to the children. It is more than disgusting to watch it being past down for generations. All the enablers are guilty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-56121788883344869.post-31462648907160327902009-11-30T18:59:40.254+01:002009-11-30T18:59:40.254+01:00@ 16:57 patricia,

Lying is for losers, a no win situation. <br /><br />The shadow Palin casts with her suspicious behaviors reflects on the entire GOP now. That is why those like my mother will not remain in th GOP as they see it i not longer the same. It is the beast McCain/Palin created. What Palin is doing is more than a simple fraud case regarding a state gov. She teamed with a man that lied and covered mistakes and crimes most of his adult life. They both <br />deserve the truth to come out and do their time. McCain will probably die first, but his legacy will lay out that he was a bigger con and crook then his mafia father in law.<br /><br />Posing as what you are not and seeking an elected office is the tip of an iceberg. What more would she do and for what? How did someone Palin make it to a VP candidate? Future frauds most be prevented, all can learn from these lessons.<br /><br />Thank you deeply Regina, Patrick, Kathleen and all that keep the light burning for the truth.Ruthnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-56121788883344869.post-56597490741947665692009-11-30T18:53:58.172+01:002009-11-30T18:53:58.172+01:00@18:35 - Palin MADE Bristol into a national celebr...@18:35 - Palin MADE Bristol into a national celebrity.

I think the fact that she didn't have the courage to do this is because it would show all the world how dysfunctional and sick her family is. It would show her to be inattentive as a mother, perhaps. And in her small, ambitious mind, it would "ruin" her. That's all she cared about, over every other consideration. Many people have overcome this kind of thing, but it must be done with honesty.

What I did care about then and still am outraged over now are Palin's continuing lies about Trig's birth. Her account of the "wild ride" never did hold water (bad pun intended) and, as with her many other lies, gets more inconsistent each time she talks about it, er, embroiders it. <br /><br />"It's personal" is fine. "I began having signs of labor in Texas, flew back to Alaska, drove to Wasilla, had a DS baby 5 weeks premature with jaundice and a heart problem but took him to the office 3 days later" is an insult to our intelligence and evidences that Palin is a chronic and compulsive liar.Liz I.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09791876450864929735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-56121788883344869.post-80999274561032978292009-11-30T17:57:51.559+01:002009-11-30T17:57:51.559+01:00The person Sarah Palin is protecting the most is h...The person Sarah Palin is protecting the most is herself. And her political ambitions. If her daughter was pregnant twice within 2 years, it surely would disqualify her as a serious candidate. If she can't supervise or have influence over her children, then why would anyone allow her to run the United States of America, much less be leader of the Free World? She and her handlers know that would obliterate her chances. Exposing this coverup now, after all this time, would do the same thing. And if people realized that the GOP had a hand in this coverup, regardless if it started out as essentially a personal matter - well, their lack of respect for full disclosure, their comfort with this kind of deceitful secrecy, it would be absolutely chilling to most people.

As a 45 year old woman of childhood sexual abuse I would like to tell the poster that @ 16:47 is replying to a few things. You are insinuating that this is what happened and justification of the cover up. I am shaking as i write but it is so important to let everyone know that hiding it, pretending it never happened can sometimes be worse than the actual event. You are carelessly throwing that out here with no regard that others have experienced what you are saying. Much like the pregnancy stories, women know it's not true we can all discuss it till doomsday but women know this story is bunk. So the poster who is saying that hiding, and shaming a child who is the victim of sexual abuse and that people here on this blog haven't showed sympathy for all of those children you should be careful of what you say. There are people here to testify that if what you are proposing is true that only furthers the abuse it doesn't help at all.

This is a character issue, I don't care who she is protecting. All she had to say was, "I will not discuss my pregnancy with Trig any further. It is/was a private family matter and it is no one's business." That's all she needed to say when people started questioning her about it. Believe it or not, we might have gotten the message and left it alone. There certainly are plenty of other questionable things about Sarah Palin worth our time and attention. Instead, she just digs herself in deeper and deeper, making statements on the record, flat out lies. All with a smile and nary a flinch. This will reflect badly on her character, I am 100% certain, regardless of her reasons for telling these lies. That is why she doesn't just get it over with and let people know that she faked a pregnancy to protect loved ones. She knows her behavior has been, and continues to be, very disturbing - by most people's standards.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-56121788883344869.post-34875211482756061512009-11-30T17:34:37.397+01:002009-11-30T17:34:37.397+01:00As much as I would enjoy watching Palin navigate t...As much as I would enjoy watching Palin navigate two years of campaigning (explaining her "policies" to Bill O'Reilly, etc.), she doesn't have the stamina or the drive for such hard work.

I am as horrified by Palin and her ilk as anyone here, but I do think we need to keep this group in proper perspective. Their chances of electing a fringe fundamentalist to the offices of President or Vice President of the United States are actually quite slim, as shown by these latest poll numbers. The reality is that most Americans generally fall somewhere in the middle in terms of beliefs, support for policies, etc. As we know, also, many fiscal conservatives are social progressives, so it's more of a continuum than a black and white issue, at least at this point in time. If we can keep shining a spotlight on this tiny but loud group, they will have to stay on the sidelines, politically speaking. People voted for McCain - Palin mostly to support the GOP ticket, to vote against Obama, and perhaps for some because she is a woman. I would bet the fundamentalist bloc was relatively small. Nothing that could be decisive in an election. They are good at grabbing publicity and coverage, all while not being forthcoming about their ideas, that much it true. They are very cunning, for if their ideas were worthy ones, they wouldn't have to hide them so.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
