The Enquirer attributed the allegation to “an enemy” of the Alaska governor and many pundits postulated that the tabloid’s source was Palin’s estranged brother-in-law, Mike Wooten. Wooten, who was embroiled in an ugly custody battle with Palin’s sister, claims the governor tried to have him fired from the Alaska state police.

Wooten? Was he the drunken state trooper who used to beat up Pallin's sister?

Sounds like a credible witness...at least credible enough to the kind of folks who believed Burkett four years ago.

I got so mad when I saw that fish wrap “US” in Walgreens today. There were too many of them or I would have turned them around so the covers were not visible. I’ve done that in the past with books by Michael Moore, the vile former Sen and Gov Lowell Weicker, and others.

You’d think with the overwhelmingly negative reaction US got that they would yank these things off the shelves. Just irked me to see those words “lies and scandal” just thrown out there gratuitously.

Well its a good thing the Drive-By Media reversed course on their policy of not covering unsourced, unsubstantiated rumors about infidelity printed in the National Enquirer.

Apparently the threshold for printing these allegations against Democrats is a confession, while for Republicans it is a denial.

Did you leave a comment on the Boston Herald site? We need to challenge false stories and call the MSM on the hypocrisy of the way this story has hit the same MSM that was happy to cover up for Edwards. Conservatives need to stop ceding ground to liberals.

Nothing beats the old Weekly World News. Their web site is defunct, but here’s the story about Hillary’s love affair with a space alien, from a book:

This new guy is not an affair, so this too shall pass...it’s just the left doing their dirty smear campaign according to the OBAMA campaign orders. Chicago slime machine politics is Obama’s style.

Exactly!

We are learning more about the Drive-By Media than we are about anyone else.

I am so angry that I am taking their names and where they work so I can remember who is a liar so I can ignore them from now on!

The reason that the partner asked that the papers be sealed, was because, he and his wife were partners in a cabin and the property was part of the settlement. The Palin’s were named as part owners. No affair was mentioned.

There’s a difference between an AFFAIR vs. FLIRTING.

Funny how the Left seems to think there’s nothing wrong with the former, but the latter is a capital offense.

You evidently can’t read, because I never said there was an affair, it was said by the elite media.

How about oral sex with an intern in the Oval Office?

I don’t remember any of the OLD MEDIA getting upset about that. In fact, I remember them defending it to the hilt!

How do you know that, are you supposed to know that, or is it just a guess? I read about those sealed papers last night.

If they keep this up, they will have attorneys and tough people from all over volunteering to defend the Republican ticket from the Democrat Obama devils
