Sarah Palin: They have no shame

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.

ITA but also want to add if she were a democrat none of this would be an issue and we would get the flip side of it from the media. Bristol being a single mom would be celebrated. Fights involving the family would be presented with a positive spin, etc. The 3 ring circus was started by the media.

The Palins erred, imo, with the reality shows. I watched a few episodes of the two shows (one about Sarah and one about Bristol and Willow) and I wasn’t impressed but I’m not impressed by reality tv, lol. I enjoyed some aspects of Palin’s Alaska but mostly for the scenery. The Bristol/Willow one was awful in all respects, imo. But, I’m one to watch reality TV in snippets to announce I’m glad it isn’t my life that’s being blasted in this way.

11 names; 11 witnesses. One or more may have reason to lie. Do you disagree?


I do not disagree. But the same could be said of Bristol.


It's good to realize you're keeping an open mind. Thanks for sharing.

Geeze Resettozero. I see a lot of last names on that list, a guy that was fired and some that were accused of assault. They'd have NO reason to lie, would they. Not even the one that yelled "I'm gonna be famous" and posted it on social media. ;-)

Korey Klingenmeyer is a real stand up social paragon of virtue! In one of the recordings, Klingenmeyer began by using a racial slur and telling the officer he wanted to "to talk to the head nigger in charge."

Eric Thompson was fired so he and Roberta Thompson wouldn't have an axe to grind.

Matthew McKenna summarized the evening as such: “The problem is, we’re friends, and we have a lot of other friends that aren’t friends, and sh*t got awry.”

What a joke.

Heh! I’m just glad all the parties I attended and currently attend aren’t public fodder.

Not public yet, just wait until you are a candidate for VP.

Hadn't heard that quote until now. Figured that was what happened, though. Plus, to some extent, it seems there may have been a set-up waiting to be sprung on any of the Palins.

Someone posted--might have been you--that we're likely to hear more from this. Sarah is ticked.

That statement seems to sum it up.

Ted Kennedy killed a woman by drunk driving that resulted in an accident that killed his passenger. He waited hours to report the accident, after talking to his legal team. Her parents are bought off by the family to suppress any inquiry. He successfully becomes a Senator and a major legislator of numerous bills that go against out Constitution. He is hailed a hero and his death, decades later, is cause for sorrow in this country, by the media. His “family” along with his scumbag assassinated brother, JFK, is considered royalty by our media and many citizens.

Liberals and their media stick together. They are helped by conservatives who admire scumbags like JFK and MLK. MLK was also a scumbag but so many on our side consider him and his agenda wonderful. Our history books will/do promote these people in a positive light. We continue to allow it to happen.

I strongly disagree with Palin on some things and strongly agree with her on other things.

Name one of each....just one.

Show me the stats because that’s not happening. She is unelectable, whether you want to believe it or not. Non liberal women, dem and repub, (notice I didn’t say conservatives who adore her), won’t vote for her.

The media has succeeded in tainting her so badly that it will take a miracle for her to overcome this. The same thing happened to Bush. He wasn’t a great president but he wasn’t awful either and the media spin ruined his legacy. No one from his (our) side spoke out/counteracted, in any way and allowed it to happen. Bush didn’t defend any of his actions and the perception is set. IMO

‘Hell cannot be made too HOT for the Homecoming of Liberals.’

Excellent tagline material!

...and I have one of the BEST tag lines you’d ever want to copy! ;)

Of course it does with fans who have no interest in discussing facts. I get it. This a Palin fan thread regardless of facts or intelligent discussion. Facts don’t matter to libs or fans of any sort.

The fact is that Van Jones said the Dems are terrified of Palin. It was posted on FR 2 days ago. They will lie and smear and so will those who vote for them.

I’m on your side and you’re too stupid to realize it.

You were played, Twink.

LOL yeah that’ll never happen ;) I won’t even run for local political office, keep turning down school board and town council requests...I have a basic respect for anyone who puts themselves through that ordeal. I think times have changed so much, my grandfather was deputy sheriff in philly way back and my family was big in republican politics and held many elected positions for decades. My cousin was the last in our family to be an elected official, Republican, and a congresswoman for a suburb of philly. She died soon after the republican convention in philly in 2000. My family has been involved in politics on the republican side for close to 100 years.

I’ll name them all that I remember.

Her position on the Iraq War. She wanted an exit strategy but not one that would hinder the mission. I agreed. Her foreign policy aligns with mine.

She supported health care reform (which is always suspect from politicians because what they want is always more than what taxpayers can pay) and wanted more info to and for patients which I agree with. But I really didn’t agree with healthcare reform that initiated from the government. The government shouldn’t be involved at all imo.

I’m confused about her views on immigration/immigration reform. I’m confused about many politicians views on this issue. I don’t hold my ignorance against her or any of them. I want closed borders, strict immigration laws that are enforced and I want the Kennedy and Reagan Immigration to be stopped. I don’t want third world people bringing their third world culture to this country. How’s that?

I like her views on energy. I also like her views on the stupid climate change/global warming nonsense.

I totally disagree with her views on education. Totally disagree. She’s wrong. Most politicians are wrong on this issue.

On the most important issue for me, 2nd Amendment, she’s golden.

..........I don’t like jumping to any conclusion based on still so little information and am not. But, it sounds like the Palins arrived and a certain drunk group in the crowd had it in for them.

I again wonder WHY they went to such a party and exactly WHO invited them and what his connection to what Palin, among the several of them, is. As stated on other threads, I’m betting it was racing buddies of Todd’s.
