That’s why, after a month and a half of hearing rumors about myself and family, I’ve finally decided to comment about the situation. Instead of listening to all the people who weren’t there — people who claim they heard this from their cousin/brother/sister-in-law/step-daughter/long lost little brother – let me tell you what actually happened. Our friend got knocked out from a cheap shot from behind.  (His injury resulted in ten stitches, so it was really low.) Why would anyone do this?  Well, here’s a hint.  The guy was on social media during this incident, tweeting, “about to get famous.” When Willow...

A Pennsylvania man and his son were arrested Thursday on charges of harassing Sarah Palin's family and lawyers in a case a prosecutor said went beyond "merely creepy to truly threatening." Craig Christy, 47, and his son, Shawn Christy, 19, were placed under arrest at the FBI office in Allentown. The pair was indicted by a federal grand jury in Alaska on Wednesday. They are accused of harassing members of the former Alaska governor's family as well as her attorneys and employees of the law firm. Palin, the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee, is also a possible presidential candidate. The...

Should a 16-year-old -- ANY 16-year-old -- be held up to public ridicule? Maybe -- Willow's already in the public eye, appearing in reality shows and making comments on Facebook. No -- She's still a kid, and Griffin's crossing a line . Sure -- Willow's old enough to fight back. Other (post a comment).

Willow Palin's homophobic slurs reflect on Sarah Palin's parenting – or lack thereof – talk show host Joy Behar has suggested. Willow, the 16-year-old daughter of the former Alaska governor, attacked a former classmate, named Tre, on Sunday. “Sarah Palin's Alaska, is failing so hard right now,” Tre wrote on Facebook during the premiere of the reality series. Which prompted Willow to respond “Haha your so gay” and “Your such a faggot.” Willow and her sister, Bristol, offered a halfhearted apology, saying that they shouldn't have reacted to negative comments. Behar criticized the incident with openly gay comedian Judy Gold,...

The Left is just livid over a Facebook exchange between 16-year-old Willow Palin and a couple of guys from her area. Willow called one of the kids “gay” and a “faggot” in response to his attack on her family. Being of delicate constitution and having refined sensibilities, the Left was horrified by teenage trash talk, especially of the “homophobic” variety. After all, it’s not as if the Left would do the same. Why, I remember when former Pandagon writer “Ilyka” wrote a piece responding to something I wrote that claimed I was a rape-loving Christian “fag,” the noble liberals of...

I’m not exactly outraged Bristol Palin is in the finals of “Dancing with the Stars.” I’m not like the guy who shot out his TV when Tuesday’s votes were revealed. Bristol has shown poise and a willingness to learn. But she’s shown something else in her TV reality show run. She’s shown her mother’s surprising strength. The reason she’s consistently at the bottom of the judge’s rankings and yet wins another chance every week? Her mom is Sarah Palin. After this month’s elections, we officially live in the bluest blue-blue state on the face of the earth, so it takes...

David Letterman re-addressed the controversy surrounding his jokes about Sarah Palin's family during the taping of CBS' "Late Show" on Monday. Letterman said he had no idea Palin was at the game with her 14-year-old daughter, Willow, and apologized to the governor.

I would never think it was funny. I wouldn't put it in a joke…"...

It's long been no secret that comedian Dave Letterman is a vicious leftist who will do and say anything to tear down anyone with conservative leanings, and he has made it a point many times to attack with disgusting, vile jokes the character of Governor Sarah Palin. The left must really fear her and the traditional values she believes in and represents to keep focusing on her with so many attempts to destroy her reputation and character. From Alan Colmes and his charge that Sarah caused her son's Down Syndrome, to the many liberal talking heads and blogs that reported...

When Glenn Beck at FOX had Governor Palin on show, the following remarks got my attention:...............Glenn Beck: Are you concerned about the seeming global effort to discredit capitalism? Gov. Palin: Yes, I'm scared to death of that. Yes because our nation, our economic system is based on the principles of capitalism. Let me just give you a quick example of the wisdom of a child: My daughter Willow... She was listening to the news the other day and they were talking about a promise made on the [Obama] campaign trail, that there will be tax cut for 95% of Americans,...

Sarah Palin's bright-eyed daughter Piper melted hearts at a Colorado ice-cream shop as the veep candidate satisfied the girl's sweet tooth during a campaign stop. The beaming 7-year-old, who came in holding baby brother Trig in his removable car seat, gobbled up a dish of birthday-cake ice cream from the Cold Stone Creamery in Colorado Springs Sunday night. The Palins - daughter Willow, 14, was there, too - greeted several excited customers and posed for photos. Palin paid cash for the treats and threw a little extra in the tip jar before retreating to her hotel. She seems to have...
