Todd and Sarah Palin to Divorce
Source: Alaska Report

AlaskaReport has learned this morning that Todd Palin and former Alaska governor Sarah Palin are to divorce. Multiple sources in Wasilla and Anchorage have confirmed the news.


A National Enquirer story exposing previous affairs on both sides led to a deterioration of their marriage and the stress from that led to Palin's resignation as governor of Alaska.

The Palins were noticeably not speaking to each other at last Sunday's resignation speech in Fairbanks.

Sarah has recently purchased land in Montana and is considering moving the family there.

210. I know we don't like her...but she's still a "her" and not an "it".
Sorry, but I've heard too many men speak of women this way, regardless of their view towards them as individuals..e.g. "I'd like to have a piece of that".

259. No human being should be referred to as a "thing"...and you may have
heard it being used by women towards men, but I doubt it's as common..It's wrong, either way.

338. 'stead of ridin' thru the trailer park with a $100 out the window, it was a VP pick that got her in
the car huh. No one would care or laugh except for all the vindictive and hateful rhetoric she spewed huh. "Palin' around with terrorist" became Palin's affairs. It fits...just like everything else with Palin...it's cheap and it fits.

how lame you sound?

You may be trying wildly reduce her to her genitals, and so seemingly defend the "it" here but if there wasn't something physically attractive about her face and visible body, they wouldn't want what you're rather absurdly referring to as "it",anyway.

p.s. I like her no more than anyone else here, but it's got zip to do with her attractiveness or lack of such....As is, you're not putting down Palin the Person, you're just slurring the female gender....Think about it.

The reason is in the omission of the object. Technically, these statements refer to hitting or getting a piece of "ass". Used by both genders too.

........I would refer to Coulter, Ingraham, O'reilley, Hannity and Beck as "its" too. Look at what Limbaugh referred to Chelsea Clinton as. These pieces' of shit deserve no quarter in my opinion male or female, they're all shitbags.

416. It's okay with you to be a sexist, but not a rascist?
Discrimination against any group is, besides being really stupid, morally wrong. Referring to a woman as her genitalia is sexist.

Not because of what I said to you. AND, your reply to me was deleted. APPARENTLY, it was inappropriate, despite what you claim.

And, speaking of deleting posts--it's against the rules here to level personal insults, such as calling someone "psycho."

The modus operandi of the right wing being enabled by their friends in the Main $tream Media.

1. Plant a true story

2. Doctor true story with some key lie

3. Push story in Media

4. Spin true story into a false story, then tar and feather the people who propagated story

5. Rove and Cheney exchange high fives

Sarah Palin is really covering up for being "disinvited" by Nancy Reagan to make an appearance at the Ronald Reagan Library which was widely publicized by the RW.

That's my guess. Can she win in Montana?? This might change my opinion of primarying Baucus. We might need him to keep her out of the Senate.

Once she finds out she's not in charge of anything and can't run the show the way she wants,she will lose interest even in running.

She has too many control issues to take a job like senator.

fame that is promised...

then i realized she is not the type of person who wants to be lost in the shuffle of 99 other people--she has to absolutely be the queen bee--the princess among princesses.

good luck to her finding something that is gonna fit her bill. (ain't gonna happen)

368. TX will have an open seat this year.
Especially if Gov. Perry appoints himself to the senate seat vacated by Ms. Kay Bailey Hutchinson. TX has no income tax, and this would get her far away from Todd if that is what she wants.

90. Hey I like your name
Back in the 80's our representative in the CA state Assembly was Sal Cannella, known among his constituents as Sal Monella.

Sal was a Dem, but he was the kind of big-bidness-loving, high living, developer-pleasing Dem we seem to always get stuck with around here.

He used to wear his cowboy boots when he came out to speak to the hicks in the district. But his boots were spit shined. You could see your reflection in them.

One day he went on a tour with us to inspect flood damage at a local dairy. He slipped on a cow turd and fell right on his ass in another one.. In his brand new pressed and creased, jeans.

We all tried to stifle a guffaw. I was successful but not everybody was.

132. How about Shrub's "cowboy" boots -- if he'd ever accidentally somehow
managed to step into a cowflop, I'm sure he would have expected his Secret Service guys to rescue him.

Do you remember the photo of * with a couple horses, apparently taken to "prove" that he wasn't afraid of horses -- the two horses were standing just over the shoulder of the road * was standing on -- I personally think the hooves were not shown because the horses were immobilized by staked-to-the-ground ankle shackles.

I was always surprised people didn't make more of a "ranch" in TEXAS, ferpetesake, with NOT A HORSE OR A COW IN SIGHT??? And a rented barn on somebody else's property for "ranch" photos?

At least his Fancified Presidentin' "Cowboy" Boots were made with plain old dogger heels instead of undershot western heels -- his bootmaker had the grace to spare him a little hypocrisy.

Pressed and creased jeans have always, always just cracked me up (I grew up in South Dakota).

Can you imagine having to use an outhouse in Alaska? There'd be no need for toilet paper--instead of wiping, you just wait ten seconds until it freezes and peel it off.

384. I think that's part of it
My opinion on the resignation: if she would have remained governor, a scandal she couldn't have shaken off, even though she's packed the ethics committee, would have emerged. She got rid of Troopergate by launching her own investigation ahead of the state one. The house might have done it, but I don't know...since she was still mayor of Dogpatch when the house was built, maybe the committee won't see it as a problem. (Investigating scandals that happened before you got your current office is only done to Democratic governors from the South.) There's probably something huge out there we just don't see, and that's why Sarah hauled ass now.

11. The "males" on the right will be in a state of euphoria. You know....
"maybe she'll look at me,", etc. Not a word of this is over in Freeperland. My other thought on this goes back to her ethics problems and the money it cost to pay them off. Todd used to have money in the bank, these ethics problems have cost big. Sarah, to me, has never really been all that interested in politics per se, it's the show biz, camera ready, applause when on stage that appeals to her. I honestly don't think she gives a fig about politics, she would be more knowledgeable and I think it was a way to a means. I got it! She wants Tina Fey's job, that's it.....LOL.

48. Look at her personal history. She loves competing.

The sad part in politics and apparently even more so in Alaska Politics is that the skills needed to win and the skills needed to govern are getting to be two separate things.

You could say George HW Bush and "W" both knew what it took to win. His dad at least had an idea of what was needed to govern. So run the dirty campaign about personal destruction but run the country more pragmatically. That was not a lesson "W" learned.

Fear Palin would have been the same way.

They want all the glory but NONE of the duty. They just want the title and crown. The responsibility it entails can be put in the hands of their underlings and financiers. This is why the US has run amok and been led astray for twenty eight years (or 40 . . . or 400, depending on which historian you ask).

51. Fundies have the HIGHEST divorce rates...
http://www.religioustolerance.org/chr_dira.htm

George Barna, president and founder of Barna Research Group, commented:

"While it may be alarming to discover that born again Christians are more likely than others to experience a divorce, that pattern has been in place for quite some time. Even more disturbing, perhaps, is that when those individuals experience a divorce many of them feel their community of faith provides rejection rather than support and healing. But the research also raises questions regarding the effectiveness of how churches minister to families. The ultimate responsibility for a marriage belongs to the husband and wife, but the high incidence of divorce within the Christian community challenges the idea that churches provide truly practical and life-changing support for marriages."

According to the Dallas Morning News, a Dallas TX newspaper, the national study "raised eyebrows, sowed confusion, even brought on a little holy anger." This caused George Barna to write a letter to his supporters, saying that he is standing by his data, even though it is upsetting. He said that "We rarely find substantial differences" between the moral behavior of Christians and non-Christians. Barna Project Director Meg Flammang said: "We would love to be able to report that Christians are living very distinct lives and impacting the community, but ... in the area of divorce rates they continue to be the same." Both statements seem to be projecting the belief that conservative Christians and liberal Christians have the same divorce rate. This disagrees with their own data.

Denomination (in order of decreasing divorce rate)
% who have been divorced

Non-denominational ** 34%
Baptists 29%
Mainline Protestants 25%
Mormons 24%
Catholics 21%
Lutherans 21%




** Barna uses the term "non-denominational" to refer to Evangelical Christian congregations that are not affiliated with a specific denomination. The vast majority are fundamentalist in their theological beliefs.

Jews 30%
Born-again Christians 27%
Other Christians 24%
Atheists, Agnostics 21%

George Barna is the frequent cause of exploding heads among the religious right. Especially since Barna himself is a very strict Fundamentalist and sometimes draws conclusions from his research that support his own opinions. But at least he always makes that clear.

Two other cases I remember:

--After 9/11, the holy-rollers bloviated endlessly that more Americans were attending church more often. The Barna polls showed a minor uptick in church attendance for a few weeks after the event, followed by a plunge back to the usual low numbers.

--For all the Xian wrath spent on Bill Clinton during "Monicagate," Barna's polling showed that self-identified Evangelicals supported Evil Bill in roughly the same numbers as everybody else. Clinton's approval rating among that group stayed at a steady 60-65%.

133. They actually THINK they are BETTER than others.
They really do.

They are "saved".

I sit next to a fundy catholic at work.
I'm in sales, and they always futz around
with how the coveted "call-in leads" are
distributed.

They announced that they would distribute the
leads by geographic area, determined by what
zones we are working.

Fine.

Then when these "good" leads started coming
in, I realized that they had switched to
alphabetical order to pass them out.

When I commented on what a lousy idea that
was, and that I preferred the geographic
distribution, he said that some people
might have zones that get more call-in leads
than others.

I told him that was tough luck.

He said, and I'm not making this up:
"Well, my socialist friend, sitting next
to me is having an effect, don't you think
the alphabetical distribution is more "fair"
to spread the leads around? You're becoming
a CAPITALIST!!"

Time for some schooling for this person, whose
only REAL problem is his intelligence level...

I told him:

"Look, if management SAYS they're handing them
out "alphabetically", who's going to KNOW when
they just GIVE THEM AWAY as FAVORS, LIKE THEY
ALWAYS DO....If they are handed out geographically,
they can't get AWAY WITH CORRUPTION.
Then I told him that I will NEVER become a proponent
of the "crony capitalism" that is KILLING his chance
of success at our office. He had to THINK about that.

(Who's zoomin who?)

225. According to Catholics, divorce is ok, as long as you never have sex again. They
now see divorce as a civil matter, settling financial affairs. However, it does not dissolve the marriage in the eyes of God. So, if you have sex again, it's adultery. And, of course, you may not re-marry anyone else.

169. The moment you hear "I'm a Christian" is when you need to be on guard.
I've never met anyone who acted in His name who had to tell me, or anyone else, they were, in fact, a Christian. They live it.

On the other hand, the few who won't quit telling me of their devotion are serial adulterers, tax cheats and will steal from anyone who let's them, even family - and that's just what I know about them. Go figure. But I wouldn't relish the rewards of living in a state of breaking three out of ten commandments on a daily basis if I believed in their concept of heaven and hell. No wonder they're so screwed up.

Before anyone gets on me about being a basher, my mother is being watched over by the former lot and it's taken a huge load off the family. I can't even begin to repay their deeds except to emulate their behavior and pay it forward when I can. Real Christians, decent people, who don't use the Bible to excuse their atrocities against others do exist, and I'm blessed to know a bunch of them.

Sarah and Todd? Who'd a thought. Oh, and that winking has always creeped me out to no end.

Editor's note: AlaskaReport was the first website to report that Sarah Palin was running for governor of Alaska and the first website to report that Sarah was picked as John McCain's VP candidate.

326. Amazing to see, isn't it? Some liberals would feel pity for Pinochet too.
But I don't think Palin is a "laughingstock".

Stalin, Hitler & Mussolini were figures of ridicule. Who sparked a minority mob's passions. All were failed artists (Stalin: failed poet, Hitler: failed painter, Mussolini: failed journalist, Palin: failed sportscaster). All single-mindedly obsessed with power at any cost. All SHOCKED the majority who had written them off with ridicule.

Stalin was from Georgia, a Russian backwater analogous to Alaska, a region ridiculed as hillbilly, and a region that has political movements for independence.

Palin will start a Third Party called either "Maverick Party" or "National Unity Party". Mark my words.

There are a lot of nasty comments about Palin in this thread. That's too bad. We can disagree with someone politically but yet we should still wish them and their family well. I hope that everything can work out for the better for the Palin family.

176. If she and the party she took up with
hadn't been using "family values" as a club and a weapon to attack anyone they disagree with politically, I might agree with you, but she made her own bed, as has every other Republican. If exposure of their hypocrisy is what it takes to purge American politics of scum like her, then so be it. Compared to the political and social damage that people like her do and intend to do, a bit of dismay on the part of her family means nothing.

That I can sell uptown

By myself I wouldn't

86. Todd gets left behind
http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2009/07/27/2011525.aspx

Sarah Palin not only left her perch in the governor's office; she also left behind her husband Todd after yesterday's ceremony in Fairbanks.

After swearing in the new governor, Palin made a quick exit with daughter Piper and son Trigg in tow. She jumped in a Chevy Silverado twin cab driven by her security detail.

Todd Palin followed just seconds behind, and was left struggling to avoid a phalanx of cameras. The problem: His family had already left.


After reviewing our camera tape, you can hear someone ask, "No car for Todd?" Then Todd, the former First Dude, laughs and says, "They left me."

The sexists here will, of course, claim that it's "different". They just won't be able to say HOW, since race and gender are both "conditions of birth" and wholly unrelated to character.

It's just a BIG DOUBLE STANDARD.

Yeah, bet you anything Sarah knows that there is going to be so much ugly coming out in the divorce from both sides it would have destroyed her politically, and her best option was to drop out of the spotlight/Governor's office ASAP.

Sad for the kids, but good that the GOP gets to bear witness (once again) to the consequences of their everyday sanctimonious bullshit.

Sarah is a fake. She thinks she is soooo hot and is sooooo not. So much for abstinence, family values, Christianity, and every other lie she ran on. Thank God America did not buy into her bs. You think it's bad now, you may as well have gone and hand dug your own grave if those two got into office. Can you imagine a human race made up of rednecks??? Arayans would have been bad enough.

No Truth to Latest Rumors

Today at 2:50pm
Yet again, some so-called journalists have decided to make up a story. There is no truth to the recent “story” (and story is the correct term for this type of fiction) that the Palins are divorcing. The Palins remain married, committed to each other and their family, and have not purchased land in Montana (last week it was reported to be Long Island).

Less than one week ago, Governor Palin asked the media to “quit making things up.” We appreciate that the more professional journalists decided to question this story before repeating it.

they are always, always, always hypocrites. Always.

I'd like to recall the religious nut from the campaign who declared "Todd and Sarah: chosen vessels of God." all over the place. Just months ago.
One man, one woman, a divine Sacrament to be defended at all costs, until it is just a matter of law.

247. There is also this possibility...
this could be part of Palin's strategy... she has a couple of people leak to the AlaskaReport that she and Todd are divorcing ... then when the media picks up on the story she can come out deny it and then bash the media. This gets her headlines and more attention ;)
I don't trust her one bit on anything that she does or says!

268. Seems pretty strange...
that Palin is sending out so many people to deny a story on a blog that most people have never heard of before.
So far Meg Stapleton her PR gal, Van Flein the attorney and s couple people at CBS have made comments - and now they are saying that even Sarah might come out with a statement later today.
Seems like a lot of denying going on for a story that they say is not true.
I think that blogger's sources must have had GOOD info and the Palin folks are going beezerk right about now!

I just hope that every time someone says something about her in a blog article that she and her crew aren't going to come out and make such a fuss just to get media attention!

Yet again, some so-called journalists have decided to make up a story. There is no truth to the recent “story” (and story is the correct term for this type of fiction) that the Palins are divorcing. The Palins remain married, committed to each other and their family, and have not purchased land in Montana (last week it was reported to be Long Island).

Less than one week ago, Governor Palin asked the media to “quit making things up.” We appreciate that the more professional journalists decided to question this story before repeating it.

The one who said that Palin's quitting her job as Governor was to show how "Her fight" and how
"she wanted to work for the people of Alaska?"

296. Lots of denials and no real confirmation--might indeed be a bogus report
But coming from the party of the Birthers, their credibility isn't exactly triple A rated, so
I'm gonna file this one under "who knows, and who cares?" for the time being.

I didn't count on Palin and the entire GOP melting down this early in the year.

CBS is saying that the Palin camp says the rumors are false.

However, Alaskareport has multiple sources.
:popcorn:

I guess by tmw AlaskaReport or the other blog will have to reveal a source to show credibility. Or show some sort of evidence.

This is the second nonsense story they've pushed hard only to allow Palin to swoop in and attack the 'media' for making 'unfair attacks'. Alaska Report is utter garbage, stop buying their bull from now on. I don't know what they're up to exactly, but it's not journalism.

This smells like a set up to make the phantom liberal media look like liars, as she just had a speech about it. This is what she will base her campaign on in 12. The freedom of the press, along with many others is in the balance.

401. She can base her campaign on it, but
she's a joke, her credibility is shot to hell so it's unlikely to make an impact. Palin has lied and obfuscated and dissembled so many times, only her most rabid supporters believe anything she says. 2012 is a long time away, plenty of time for her to dig herself into a deeper doo-doo hole than the one she's already in.

391. As for Todd, I'm thinking he might become a "stream-enterer" and
align with a Buddhist group somewhere, perhaps in India, Todd being a guy who goes to the source of the stream and all.

All of his business associates in Alaska would be left calling Todd on his cell but Todd will have left the cell back home, and will be many thousands of miles gone in shaved-head contemplation, eating one meal a day, sprouts and carrots and the like, striving to dissolve Self into the broader infinity.

Ring, ring, ring goes his cell phone back in Juneau.

396. Apparently, it's false
Did Sarah Palin just 'Pwn' the media with divorce rumors?

Rick Moran

This is highly speculative but you've probably heard by now that a couple of Alaska liberal bloggers "broke" the story about Sarah Palin's supposed impending divorce from her husband.

It sure sounded solid coming from Alaska Report News:


AlaskaReport has learned today that Todd Palin and former Alaska governor Sarah Palin are to divorce. Multiple sources in Wasilla and Anchorage (including a former Palin staffer) have confirmed the split.

A National Enquirer story exposing previous affairs on both sides led to a deterioration of their marriage and the stress from that led to Palin's resignation as governor of Alaska last week.

The Palins were noticeably not speaking to each other for most of last Sunday's resignation speech in Fairbanks. Sarah ditched Todd (MSNBC) right after the speech and left without him. Sarah removed her wedding ring a couple of weeks ago.

Sarah has recently purchased land in Montana and is considering moving the family there. Sarah Palin is originally from Idaho.


Very interesting. But not true, according to Stacy McCain who evidently talked directly to Palin or someone who was authorized to speak on her behalf:


"Divorce Todd? Have you seen Todd? I may be just a renegade hockey mom, but I'm not blind!"
-- SARAH PALIN
Yes, that is her OFFICIAL reponse, which I got via phone at 5:35 this afternoon. Take that to the bank.


http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/

I wouldn't be at all surprised if the Palin camp planted the divorce story so they can accuse the media of attacking her again.

that it isn't true and that it was initiated by the left (even if it wasn't), the corporate media will give her weeks to slam the left.

And Palin may well be able to play the wronged heroine plagued by the lyin' media, one of her favorite poses if it turns out to be untrue. It's not coming from news sources I trust.

And even if it is true, why is THIS story at the top at DU? Do we really think it is the most important of all the stories? This is a waste of time and an embarrassment.

Good grief. This is NOT from credible sources and is NOT an important story, yet here it is in everyone's face at the top of DU's greatest. Come ON, people! Lots of threads I think are important are buried in dungeons like the one for 9/11-related threads, and we are told this is to preserve DU's reputation. Guess this rumor-based gossip about a horrible woman who craves attention is more important than discussion of 9/11 cover-ups, eh?
