Final Words
“Nuclear weaponry, of course,
would be the be-all, end-all of just too many people in too many parts
of our planet.”
-- Sarah Palin, Republican party vice-presidential candidate, to CBS reporter Katie Couric, 25 September 2008

Alleged Screaming, Chest-Pounding Drunk Snowmachine Clan Brawl in Great White North: “This
isn’t some damned Hillbilly reality show!”

Eric Thompson was having fun with friends and his
wife at a party in South Anchorage on Saturday night. Thompson, who is
56 years old, was the designated driver for the evening, so he wasn’t
drinking. But that was okay with him. He was among friends. It was a
birthday party for twins Matt and Marc McKenna, who own McKenna Bros.
Paving, for whom he works as a project supervisor. Marc is an Iron Dog
snow machine racer. Other snow machine racers were said to have been
there also.
The party was at the house of Korey Klingenmeyer, who is the office manager
at McKenna Bros. According to Thompson, Klingenmeyer is a very large,
muscular guy, “super easy going, and super friendly.”
Most of the party was outside. A live band was playing. People were
dancing. Thompson noticed two girls wearing sunglasses walking with an
unusual amount of confidence around the yard. He only noticed them
because of the sunglasses. That was odd, because it was at night. His
wife told him it was Bristol and Willow Palin. “Does she think she’s
Marilyn Monroe?” he said to his wife about Bristol.
Todd and Sarah were there also. Todd races in the Iron Dog. According
to another witness, Palin wore platform high-tops with the American
flag emblazoned on them. Track Palin was there and so was Bristol’s son,
Tripp.
They had all pulled up earlier in the evening in a stretch Hummer limo. It was also Todd’s 50th birthday.
He, along with the McKenna brothers and Klingenmeyer’s son, who was
also celebrating a birthday, were brought in front of the band. Everyone
sang Happy Birthday.

It wasn’t long after that things started going horribly wrong,
according to Thompson and a handful of others interviewed for this
story.
Screams erupted. Profanities spewed. Fists flew. The
Anchorage Police Department was called. The APD released a statement on
Thursday, confirming that multiple people were involved in the fight.
“However, at the time of the incident, none of the involved parties
wanted to press charges and no arrests were made. However, the case is
still an active investigation and is being reviewed by APD and the
Municipal Prosecutors Office. Alcohol was believed to have been a factor
in the incident. Some of the Palin family members were in attendance at
the party,” the statement said.
As I had reported a few days ago,
multiple accounts say that it started when Track confronted Willow’s
former boyfriend, Conner Cleary, who was there with his father Steve and
his mother Melissa. Thompson didn’t see this part, but other witnesses,
who didn’t want to be named, say that Conner and Track fought on the
front yard. Steve tried to break it up. Todd jumped into the mix and
began to choke Steve.
After that ended, Conner, Steve, and Melissa Cleary huddled together
close to Thompson, who spotted Bristol and Willow from a distance,
walking straight towards them with purpose.

“They were on a b-line, coming straight at Melissa,” Thompson said.
The owner of the house, Klingenmeyer, was trying to head them off at
the pass. He approached them and told them to leave. Bristol, according
to Thompson and other witnesses, planted her feet, “stood straight up,
brought her arm back and cold-cocked him right in the face,” Thompson
said.
And then she did it again, about six more times, before he pushed her away, and she fell, and Todd appeared.
“I was thoroughly amazed at the restraint Korey showed. He’s a total gentlemen,” Thompson said.

Another melee. This time Sarah got involved and began to scream
profanities at everyone. One source, who didn’t want to be named, said
that she was “nearly crawling on top of people,” trying to get into the
scrum.

As these things go, that also broke up, and the Palins were asked
again to leave. They piled into the Hummer, but not until Track stood
out in front of the house, inexplicably with his shirt off, his middle
finger raised at those who were also leaving.
Then the cops came, and took statements from about 10 people,
including Thompson. It’s unclear who called them. Thompson thought it
was the Palins.
“It was a really nice, mellow party,” Thompson said. “Then it turned into the Jerry Springer show.”

Hell hath no fury like a Palin family visit
via Amanda Coyne: Inside Alaska Politics...So You Don't Have To Be, 9 September 2014
Just when I was about to give up on them, the Gods of gossip
came visiting this week, and as they’ve done in the past, they beckoned
me to look towards Wasilla, towards the fortress of Our Lady of the
North, the woman who was almost a heartbeat away from the presidency,
whose family had a dramatic weekend, Wasilla style! As many of us have
read, Bristol Palin was visited by a Floridian stalker on
Sunday who somehow ended up on the family’s balcony. The stalker
currently sits in jail. That’s pretty dramatic. But that’s the least of
it. The night before, Saturday, was a doozy. The details are a little
sketchy, but there’s enough of them, from enough different sources, that
a story emerges, a story that according to the gossip Gods, looks kind
of like this: There’s some sort of unofficial birthday/Iron
Dog-type/snowmachine party in Anchorage. A nice, mellow party, until the
Palins show up.

There’s beer, of course, and maybe other things. Which
is all fine, but just about the time when some people might have had one
too many, Track Palin stumbles out of a stretch Hummer, and
immediately spots an ex-boyfriend of Willow’s. Track isn’t happy with
this guy, the story goes. There’s words, and more. The owner of the
house gets involved, and he probably wished he hadn’t. At this point,
he’s up against nearly the whole Palin tribe: Palin women screaming.
Palin men thumping their chests. Word is that Bristol has a particularly
strong right hook, which she employed repeatedly, and it’s something to
hear when Sarah screams, “Don’t you know who I am!” And it was
particularly wonderful when someone in the crowd screamed back, “This
isn’t some damned Hillbilly reality show!” No, it’s what happens when
the former First Family of Alaska comes knocking. As people were leaving
in a cab, Track was seen on the street, shirtless, flipping people off,
with Sarah right behind him, and Todd somewhere in the foreground,
tending to his bloody nose.

Sarah Palin Talks About Killing Her Own Dinner in New Reality Show: Erin Dooley, ABC News, 4 April 2014
Former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin served up some down-home
Alaska charm -- and a platter of moose hot dogs and bear-meat chili --
on her new reality TV show, “Amazing America".
Hosting a television show is nothing new for the former governor, who
began her career as a sportscaster for an Anchorage-area TV station and
later hosted “Sarah Palin’s Alaska” on TLC.
She promises the new show, which premiered Thursday, will be
“unscripted, uncensored, unchained.” One thing’s certain: Palin is
straight shooter -- literally and figuratively.

“I tell my kids, ‘Yes, we eat organic, we just have to go shoot it
first,’” she told her first guest, DeeDee Jonrowe, a veteran Iditarod
musher.
“Our meals happen to be wrapped in fur, not cellophane,” Palin said,
noting she didn’t realize people actually bought meat until she attended
college out-of-state.

In Thursday’s double-episode premiere, the conservative
politician-turned-reality-show
“I love my life!” Palin screamed as she sped across the snow.
But “Mamma Grizzly” also made sure to slip in a reference to her political celebrity.
“When I do some kind of hit on national television, and people see the background, they think it’s fake — it’s not!”

Sarah Palin: 'I Owe America A Global Apology': Paige Lavender, The Huffington Post, 12 September 2014
Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin said she owes America a
"global apology" for the 2008 GOP presidential ticket's loss to
President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden.
During an interview with Fox News' Sean Hannity, Palin spoke about Obama's long-term strategy
for defeating the Islamic State -- a militant group formerly known as
ISIS or ISIL -- that he laid out in a speech Wednesday night.
"As I
watched the speech last night, Sean, the thought going through my mind
is, 'I owe America a global apology. Because John McCain, through all of
this, John McCain should be our president,'" Palin said.

Palin went on to compare the Islamic State to Hitler and questioned how seriously Obama is taking the group.
"So
when Barack Obama, like the rest of us, hear these bad guys, these
terrorists, promising that they will raise the flag of Allah over our
White House, for the life of me I don't know why he does not take this
serious, the threat. Because yes, it's more than a vision," Palin said.
"They're telling -- just like Hitler did all those years ago, when a war
could've been avoided, because Hitler, too, did not hide his intentions.
Well ISIS, these guys aren't hiding their intentions either."

Review to most, but if McCain were President ISIS would have had a lot more money much earlier. McCain was the leading voice for covert funding of opposition groups in Syria that fell into the hands of ISIS, and Obama armed the Syrian opposition so as to triangulate McCain's position.
You’ve got to wonder about the penchant for star-spangled crotchwear on display here. Patriot porn? So much adipose tissue, so little time. As Malcolm Lowry might characterize this whole sordid, but typically All-American incident (and the relentless grinding of “capital” that precedes and follows it): “Progresión al culo.”
Yes, and yes.
One could provide a link to her predictably and typically horrescent performance on Shun Hincty's Fox b.s. platform, in the wake of the big clan atavism blow-out... which of course was not mentioned therein.
But no. Perhaps it's that the crippled fingers have walked that walk, limped back, and said... no.
For more than five years this blog bent over backwards to bear up under the crushing burden of an ex Fox lifer, and the wear is still felt, so... no.
This butt-stupid witch from the Styx did what she could to sacrifice the environment and resources of Alaska to gain the "support" of the white-eyes boomers and BP bosses, and graduated up/down from there to the brink of installation in the command structure of the permanent war machine.
What she and the fellow inmates of her peckerwood gene pool have given back to the country she never stops pimping for personal profit is, in fact, nothing but the intolerable experience of knowing they exist.
When she and Shun got to finger-pointing and air-punching there on Shun's show, well, all one could do was, as has lately become an unfortunate habit, bow one's head in shame, in recognition of the fact that, yes, these are "our fellow Americans".
And by the by, the line the flag-flashing high-heels boomtown beauty queen brought on proudly for Shun, her prize pet bit of b.s. crafted especially for the show, something to the effect that O'B could hardly manage a war when he can't manage a golf foursome, rang kind of hollow when you paused to consider the fact she can't even manage her own Hummer Mob of bodyguards, handlers, & c.
The fact that the talk show experts are projecting this incident as a "definite plus" for her, "politically" -- helping to secure her "power base" with the big-game hunters and weapons dealers and rogue cops and drill-rig adventurers and redneck racists and garden variety couch-potato right-wing nuts, who are said to approve her "aggressive" approach (Ditzy, meet Ballsy)... well, do give us a break, O large uncaring cosmos!...
But, no.
And yes, I do understand that her brave and bloodied offspring Whack, or whatever his ridiculous name is, wore the colors in I-Rak.
And yes, I do understand she has taken money to speak out on TV against alcohol abuse (check out her "Sam Adams" history.)
And yes, I am aware that the daughter with the right hook Jack Dempsey would have died for has in the course of a meteoric flightpath through showbiz actually "served as" a poster person for... yes... abstinence.
But stiil... no.
No really... and now they're fabricating "their side of the story"... my heavens... don't ask.
The stat er iron sled dogs are it seems snooping into a twerp named Fankenpublican who made that interesting bit of paradoxical photo sloppery in which the inbred version of the Christian Family Values was purported to have been on display, kicking ass and spewing the "c" word... you will not remember it, and in any case, sorry iron sled dogs, it's now gone, replaced by Sarah in Leather together with the air puncher from the #2 Apartheid State in the Union (second only to Alabama) -- who, as she helpfully explained to Shun, would have saved us all from being beheaded at dawn in the Wlkmart parking lot.
Been trying to quit all this for some time now...
But, it seems, no, not quite yet...
Is this post about them Kardashians? We have them here on the telly.
Siberia in the winter time is within walking distance--maybe these hot putas should mosey on over and melt the ice.
