Sarah Palin: They have no shame
Politoco ^ | 10/24/14 12:47 PM EDT | KENDALL BREITMAN

Sarah Palin is fighting back after her daughter Bristol was mocked following a recent brawl involving her family.

“Looking at the reports, it strikes me as bitterly ironic that the same people who tell us there is a ‘war on women’ have no problem laughing at the recording of my daughter crying as she tells police about being assaulted by a man,” Palin wrote in a Facebook post on Thursday evening.

Sarah posted on her Facebook page:

I understand that the CNN host who laughed at my daughter describing her assault has issued an apology to Politico. (Why Politico needs an apology is anyone’s guess. No one at CNN contacted my family regarding an apology, in case you were wondering. CNN contacts us directly on a regular basis with inquiries and requests for comment, so it’s not for lack of contact information that they didn't reach out. But perhaps Carol Costello should phone Martin Bashir. He knows how to reach us.)

Sarah's full Facebook post:

Please take a look at Bristol’s recent blog posts for her story, not the media’s story of what really happened last month:

I understand that the CNN host who laughed at my daughter describing her assault has issued an apology to Politico. (Why Politico needs an apology is anyone’s guess. No one at CNN contacted my family regarding an apology, in case you were wondering. CNN contacts us directly on a regular basis with inquiries and requests for comment, so it’s not for lack of contact information that they didn't reach out. But perhaps Carol Costello should phone Martin Bashir. He knows how to reach us.)

What happened on the night in question wasn’t funny. It was humiliating and frightening. The broken ribs, black eyes, and messed up elbows and knees suffered by people in our party that night were no laughing matter. Neither were Bristol’s bruises on her arms and leg from being dragged by a man. My kids aren’t proud of what happened, nor are they seeking sympathy by playing the victim card – that’s why they haven’t commented on this for all these weeks. Instead, they had to have faith that the truth would come out, despite those who did the cold-cocking actually using social media to brag, “’bout to get famous!” Screen shots of tweets captured their bold intentions, and they’ve certainly enjoyed the publicity.

Looking at the reports, it strikes me as bitterly ironic that the same people who tell us there is a “war on women” have no problem laughing at the recording of my daughter crying as she tells police about being assaulted by a man. I’d like to say shame on the media and those on the left laughing at her or at any young woman in a similar situation, but I no longer think they have any shame.

Now Todd and I are headed to an exciting middle school girl’s basketball game along with dozens of other families proud to cheer on their daughters.

Liberals are the biggest phonies you will EVER meet..they only pretend to give a crap about women so they can get their vote..meanwhile they laugh at their stupidity for voting liberal “Hey here’s some free birth control vote for us” liberals only show the phony baloney outrage when a liberal gets attacked, the second it happens to a Conservative they laugh at that person, think its funny..that is why leftists are filth

Apologies from this MSM are as worthless as their reporting and commentary.

Sarah Palin: They have no shame

Mobs are not famous for showing evidence of conscience, or self-awareness.

That's one of the things that makes a mob so dangerous.

"Liberals are the biggest phonies you will EVER meet."

Worse than that, liberals are murdering traitors hawking their demonic death-by-abortion. Hell cannot be made too hot for the homecoming of liberals.

No there is no shame and the Palin family and has been is a classic example of liberal bigotry. Here’s another example, the same psychotic liberal women declaring themselves as victims of the “war on women”, think nothing of aborting their little baby girls, tucked away, what should be safely in their womb. These innocent future women, don’t realize that in the feminist’s sick perverted world, every unborn is conveniently of the male gender.

Leftwingers don’t mean anything they say. Their rhetoric is all 100% propaganda and demagoguery in service of their agenda. The agenda has nothing to do with the issues they spew about.

I imagine Sarah doesn’t want to subject herself and her kids and Todd to a continuing media circus, depositions, court appearances, attorney fees and on and on!

Just guessing though!
