Sean Hannity and Matt Lewis, Tear Down This Wall!


By Patrick


It's done! The wall is coming down! Freedom! Victory! After six long, long years, we can now all agree and shout out in public: "Yes, Sarah Palin is an idiot!"

A few days ago, Sarah Palin was still a fairly respected member of the Republican establishment, although to some of us the cracks in the wall were already obvious. But now, FREEDOM! Today, a former huge Palin-supporter, Matt Lewis, is finally able to breathe the air of liberty, and can openly admit, without the fear of being viciously slaughtered by his peers: "You Betcha I Was Wrong About Sarah Palin"...!

YES! What joy! What relief! The world will never be the same again.

Yesterday, the eternal concrete-head Sarah Palin tried to stem herself against the tide, when she appeared on Hannity, and furiously defended herself. But even Hannity knew that the show is over. Watch for yourself, it is well worth it:




Sean, don't hold back! Tell us what you really think. You can do it, even without a degree! :-)

So much has been said about all this already, not only in the comments of our last post, but everywhere on the internet. "Secretly", virtually everybody knew that she is an idiot, but in public, it was still hard to mention this as a conservative, as Matt Lewis admits:

Palin has contributed to this phenomenon by playing the victim card, engaging in identity politics, co-opting some of the cruder pop-culture references, and conflating redneck lowbrow culture with philosophical conservatism.

And this makes me wonder if I might have contributed to this by boosting her—and by publicly chastising her conservative critics.

My harshest criticism was directed at conservative writers whom (I felt) prematurely attacked her during the months of September and October in the 2008 presidential campaign—and possibly even contributed to her radicalization. (In my mind, Palin changed after the 2008 loss, a shift that correlates closely with the election of Obama and the rise of the Tea Party.)

But you could argue that the conservatives who went after Palin back in ’08 have now been vindicated—regardless of their motivation. And my counterfactual argument (that Palin might have turned out better had everyone had cut her some slack in 2008) feels increasingly tenuous.

Is it possible that Kathleen Parker saw something I didn’t when she attacked Palin? I saw it as strangling the conservative baby in the crib; Parker probably saw it as snuffing out a monster.

Such is the plight of a writer; I got some stuff right, and my position was justifiable at the time, but in hindsight I regret contributing to the premature deification of Sarah Palin.


Well, Matt Lewis, writing such an article is a big step, however, there are still some things to clarify, once and for all.

You also write:

But something happened on the way to Des Moines. I suspect the most vicious attacks (especially the “Trig Truther” stuff) radicalized her and embittered her, but I also suspect she also took the easy way out.

OK, wait a second, Matt. Yes, we, amongst some others, are the "Trig Truthers", a label that we did not choose. We have been writing posts about the topic of Sarah Palin's pregnancy for years. However, we did not do this in order to be "vicious." We did this because we knew with 100% certainty already since 2009 that it is a true fact that Sarah Palin faked her pregnancy with Trig.

Matt, this is also not a big secret in Alaska. You would be surprised how many people know about this, especially within political circles. You would be surprised how many Republicans in Alaska know about this. Trust me, I have spoken to some of them. You, Matt, obviously have not. Maybe it should be your responsibility as a serious journalist to do this at some point.

Also, your assumption is totally wrong. The accusations about her faked pregnancy with Trig, the "Trig Truther stuff", as you call it, did not happen "on the way." These allegations long existed in Alaska, they started when Sarah Palin was still "pregnant"...! Also, Sarah Palin knew about "the rumours" right from the beginning.

In my post from February 19, 2011, I quoted from an email by Sarah Palin which was included in the leaked transcript of the book by Frank Bailey, a book which was appropriately called "Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin". The email dated from April 2, 2008 - which was 16 days before Trig was officially born:

Yeah- Brsitol (sic) just called and heard the rumors too, but this time is was from Wasilla High kids who heard that I'm not really pg, but she is, and I'll be taking/raising the baby she's supposedly having next month. She's ticked, but made light of it with, "They think I'm pregnant just because I have huge boobs?" Told her to just tell those rumormongers that they're invited to peer at my stretch marks, that'll prove who's really pg.

Yeah, right, the "stretch marks" will prove who is really pregnant! Apparently, no birth certificate is needed! No surprise, because Sarah Palin is unable to provide a birth certificate for Trig, although she simply lied about having provided one in a radio interview from December 2009, and in the same interview Palin had the audacity to say that Obama's birth certificate in contrast would be "a fair question."

In addition, I would like to refer you to the interview with veteran Alaska journalist Michael Carey from September 2, 2008, in which he explains that the "story" about Sarah Palin's faked pregnancy "has been around for quite a while":




Sarah Palin is not a victim of the "Trig Truthers." Sarah Palin is a victim of her continuous inability to accept reality. The exact reason for Sarah Palin's failure to acknowledge reality is unknown.

But in the end, the reason is also not important. What is more important, and more shocking, is the fact that over the course of more than six years, seemingly intelligent people supported her, and enabled her, and defended her against others who were simply "pointing out the obvious."

There would be much more to say about Sarah Palin, and the lasting damage she has done to the political culture in the USA. The first steps are made to undo some of the mistakes which were made in the past. But there is still a long way to go, until things are "back to normal." Also, Sarah Palin has inspired other politicians, like Joni Ernst, who campaigned together with Sarah Palin in 2014, and who is basically "Sarah Palin 2.0." It remains to be seen whether this "model" has a future.

So for today, let's rejoice and breathe the air of freedom. As a reminder of the past, here are some old photos I took myself a long time ago, together with some genuine radical left-wing Berlin artwork (LOL!).

I still remember this feeling when the wall came down. It was wonderful! The fake reality suddenly vanished, it was beautiful. Suddenly people in East-Germany could say what they always knew: It was all wrong, it was just a big mistake, we knew it for years, but were afraid to say it loud.

Say it loud, and say it proud: Yes, Sarah Palin is an idiot!

Professional hater Sarah Palin says "Fuck You" to Michael Moore, together with gun sights in his name, and Bristol Palin proudly celebrates her mother's statement on her blog and on Instagram - UPDATE: Sarah Palin delivers bizarre speech at "Iowa Freedom Summit" - UPDATE 2: Conservative Republicans in Iowa are shocked by Palin's "terrible", "painful" and "disjointed" speech, now believe that she has become a "distraction"


By Patrick

I actually didn't plan to write another post about Sarah Palin very soon again, as I am really sick and tired writing about this disgusting woman, whose future in politics was decided long ago, when she quit as Governor and decided not to run for President in 2012. But here we go again, it's almost inevitable! Why? Because Sarah Palin is not a professional politician anymore, but she feels more and more comfortable in her role as political provocateur, and she goes even further: She has established her brand as a professional hater, and whoever is the "target" of her scorn, could be up for a pretty rough time.

Sarah Palin now plays the "I might run for President" game again, by saying yesterday that she is "of course interested" to run for President in 2016, a statement which was widely reported immediately. At the same time, virtually everybody knows that the last thing that Sarah Palin, the most divisive person in US politics, will ever accomplish these days is to win an election. And Sarah Palin and her team know this as well. However, what they also know is that there is no better way to get publicity and attention than to incite hate against the political enemy, which will bring lots of headlines, and will rally the base. It will most likely bring donations as well to SarahPAC, which is paying for her luxury travels, and God knows for what other things as well.

Nothing was ever more attractive for Sarah Palin than to whip up the hate against the other side, the perceived enemies, starting with her vicious personal attacks against Barack Obama right at the beginning of her Vice-Presidential campaign in October 2008. She instantly became famous and infamous at the same time by saying in early October 2008 that Obama "is not a man who sees America as you see it and how I see America", and that he is a person "who sees America it seems as being so imperfect that he’s palling around with terrorists."

Her very unique way of dividing America into good and evil did not help her chances for winning the 2008 election, but it surely helped her to establish her own brand.

For Sarah Palin, there never can be "bad PR." In Germany we have a saying which translates like this: "Once your reputation is ruined, you can do in life whatever you want." This absolutely applies to Sarah Palin. She just wants the headlines, the attention. Everything else is secondary.

The problem is that her vicious attacks can still bring people in real danger, and this is one of the reasons why it is still necessary to write about this horrific woman, who has no conscience.

As you have all seen yesterday, Sarah Palin proudly posed in Las Vegas for a photo giving a "Fuck You" to Michael Moore, which also included two crosshairs in Michael Moore's name:



There actually exists a second photo of this moment, which was taken by Sarah Palin's daughter Bristol, who published it on her public instagram account:



Bristol's comments about this unconscionable act by her mother is very telling:


Bristol's photo is pretty sharp, and when you enlarge it, you can clearly see Sarah Palin's signature, and the gun sights, the cross hairs:



But there is even more! While "some people" claim that Bristol Palin is super-private these days and does not want to be disturbed in her super-quiet private sphere at all, Bristol even proudly celebrated the statement by her mother on her very public, very own political attack-blog as well, and posts her photo again:


There she also posts the photo again:


So the Palins are clearly very, very proud of what they are doing, as usual.

So what if one whipped-up right-winger takes all this a bit too seriously and tries to take matters into his own hands by physically attacking Michael Moore, or even trying to shoot him? Doesn't Sarah Palin as well as her outspoken daughter Bristol think that gun sights in Michael Moore's name sends the "wrong message"...?

You only need to look at Michael Moore's facebook to discover that the hate against him is very, very strong - there are literally thousands of deeply hateful comments, just because Michael Moore refused to worship the US military:


I think that the Palins couldn't care less whether they even incite more hate towards Michael Moore, or whether they even send out a potentially deadly message.

They are far too interested in headlines, attention and luxury.

As Bristol Palin also proudly shows on her Instagram, the Palins still enjoy their private plane rides - yes, it's such a "fun trip to #vegas", isn't it:



So what is Palin doing now? After cleverly getting big headlines again, today she will attend the "Iowa Freedom Summit", which should rather be called the "Iowa Freedumb Wingnut Summit."

Yes, Sarah Palin is there, and the media already took note:


Some journalists snapped pictures of Sarah Palin in the lobby of the Marriott hotel on Friday, chatting away for example with Newt and Callista Gingrich:





So Sarah Palin desperately tries to stay relevant, and uses every trick in the book. She knows that ugly attacks against the political enemy always get the best response.

I actually planned to write a post about Joni Ernst, who is now starting to establish herself as "Sarah Palin 2.0." But even such a phony, flawed right-wing politician and Koch-sucker like Joni Ernst, who preaches water and drinks wine, seems to miss what made Sarah Palin famous: This special brand of nastiness.

Finally, I would like to remind our readers, especially our new readers, that the personality of Sarah Palin has already been exposed quite a long time again, by people who knew her very well.

For example in 2009, the Alaskan conservative publicist and radio presenter Dan Fagan, who was enraged about the spitefulness of Palin's autobiography "Going Rogue", published a remarkable piece, in which he named exactly what defines Sarah Palin: Her "dark soul":

Sarah Palin: A Dark Soul

Posted on 18 November 2009 10:16am

By Dan Fagan

Publisher

The Alaska Standard

I will not buy Sarah Palin’s new book because I believe the governor who quit to be a fundamentally dishonest person. Why support the work of someone you can’t trust?

I have read some excerpts from the book and it is clearly a work of vengeance, revenge, and pure meanness. Palin comes across as the rotten on the inside, faultfinding, petty teenage girl we all hated in high school. If you’ve seen the movie “Heathers” or “Mean Girls” you know what I am talking about.

Palin, when writing Rogue, set herself on a course of smallness, triviality, quibbling, sophistry nothingness, and worthlessness. From the excerpts I’ve read, it is hard to draw any other conclusion than Sarah Palin is small in stature, character, and integrity.

Yes I do believe Sarah Palin has a dark soul. A soul obsessed with her image. A soul focused on hurting others. Sarah Palin’s book reveals her as someone unwilling, unable, incapable of living a life of forgiveness. She is a grudge carrier. Settling scores drive her and she is hell bent on revenge, payback, getting even.

Her meanness comes through most clearly in her book when she attacks former legislative director, and former friend dating back to high school, John Bittney.

Palin describes Bittney in her book as someone who was slouching and had his shirt buttoned wrong and poking through his fly. Palin wrote Bittney was a “Blackberry games addict who couldn’t seem to keep lunch off his tie.”

What crudeness, heartlessness, and pure ugliness. Palin can cut to the quick with the best of them. She knows how to enrage her enemies with a cut to the bone insult. It’s one of the things she’s best at.

And you thought Palin laughing at Bob Lester’s vicious attacks on Lyda Green was an aberration. Plain and simple Sarah Palin wants to hurt those she has unforgivness in her heart toward, and she wants to hurt them badly.

Did you see the Oprah interview when she asked Palin about Levi? Palin answered by saying she would not talk about on him on national TV. She then immediately proceeds to slam Levi over and over calling him a porn star and making fun of his new ambition to be a movie actor. It was overwhelming evidence Palin cannot help herself. She has no self-control when it comes to letting things go. She must settle the score. She must. She Will!

Revenge has become the work and calling of her life. Maybe it always has been. It’s clearly what drives her now. Her cutthroat attacks on others will be her downfall. Her inability tocontrol her desire to hurt those who hurt her will end up in the end discrediting her as a leader, as a person.

It’s never too late to change. But time is running out on Palin’s political career. Her poll ratings drop every time she opens her spiteful mouth. Her book will not help.

Truer words have never been written by Sarah Palin, and what makes this piece especially relevant is the fact that Dan Fagan supported Sarah Palin's bid for Alaska Governor in 2006.

So what now? What will Sarah Palin's next desperate attempt to stay relevant be?

In any case, nobody else has developed the "art of dividing a nation" to such perfection like Sarah Palin.

This will be her greatest legacy, and future generations will scratch their heads why such an awful person was ever allowed to appear on the national political stage.

UPDATE:

We actually have a source at the "Iowa Freedom Summit", which is taking place right now, where the top-wingnuts of the nation explain to an audience of mainly older conservative white people how they want to run the USA into the ground again, just as George W. Bush did.

Watch the speeches live here on C-SPAN. Ted Cruz is talking, just now where I am writing this, and Sarah "Queen Esther" Palin will follow soon.

Here are the first photos from our source - Sarah Palin's new best friend, top-Republican Iowa operative Becky Beach, is there with her dog (click on photos to enlarge):




What we would like to know is: Will Becky Beach take this opportunity to talk to Sarah Palin about using Jill as a stepping stool for Trig...? The dog "Jill" was supplied by Becky Beach, who is the founder of the "Puppy Jake Foundation", which Sarah Palin promoted heavily on facebook and in the media.

+++

UPDATE 2:

Here we go - Sarah Palin met Becky Beach in Iowa today:


Sarah, a word of warning: Don't try to use Jake as a stepping stool! We understand that Jake might bite...!

Here is another photo from the event in Iowa - Sarah Palin posing with Ted Cruz, his infamous father Rafael Cruz, and Steve King, and Becky's dog again.


+++

UPDATE 3:

Even by her own standards, Sarah Palin delivered at totally bizarre speech today at the "Iowa Freedom Summit" - I uploaded one minute from the speech to youtube, please try to understand what she wants to say here, because I cannot figure it out:



Transcript (many thanks to "Helen Wheels" at Raw Story):
"It must change, things must change for this cover, ihhhh, our government. Look at it. It isn't too big to fail, it's too big to succeed. It's too big to succeed, so we can afford no retreads or nothing will change with the same people and the same (slur)policies, that got us into this status quo another latin word status quo and it stands for, Man, the middle class everyday americans are getting taken for a ride, that's status quo and GOP leaders by the way, uh, ya know, the man, can only ride ya when your back is bent so strengthen it (laughter), then the man can't ride ya Merica won't be taken for a ride because so much is at stake and we can't afford politicians playin' games like nothing more is at stake than oh maybe just the next standing of theirs in the next election."
+++

UPDATE 4:

My favourite comment from the Conservatives4Palin:


+++

UPDATE 5:

Our friend James Rustad, who writes and performs songs about current political events almost on a daily basis, created a song specifically about Sarah Palin's speech in Iowa, and he captures her really well:




There is another song which I had actually missed, and you will like this one as well, I am sure: "I am not your Steppin' Stool"


+++

UPDATE 6:

The Washington Examiner published a devastating article: The Republicans finally realized that crazy Sarah has become a huge problem for them.

Excerpt:

As 2016 race begins, GOP faces its Palin problem

(...)

The news, given big play on the Drudge Report, heightened the anticipation of Palin's speech to the Freedom Summit. After all, there were still memories in the crowd of her rousing speech at the 2008 Republican convention. But when Palin took the stage, it was clear this would be no inspiring effort.

First, Palin embarked on an extended stream-of-consciousness complaint about media coverage of her decision to run in a half-marathon race in Storm Lake, Iowa in 2011. She then moved on to grumbling about coverage of a recent photo of her with a supporter who had made a sign saying "Fuc_ you Michael Moore" in reaction to the left-wing moviemaker's criticism of the film "American Sniper." Then it was on to Palin's objections about the social media ruckus over a picture of her six-year-old son Trig standing on the family's Labrador Retriever.

It was all quite petty, and yet the complaining took half of Palin's allotted time. She then proceeded to blow through her time limit with a free-association ramble on Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, the energy industry, her daughter Bristol, Margaret Thatcher, middle-class economics — "the man can only ride ya when your back is bent" — women in politics, and much more. It would be hard to say that Palin's 35-minute talk had a theme, but she did hint that she is interested in running, although there are no indications she has taken any actual steps in that direction.

"Long and disjointed," said one social conservative activist when asked for reaction. "A weird speech," said another conservative activist. "Terrible. Didn't make any sense."

"There was a certain coarseness to her that wasn't there before," said yet another social conservative who noted that some in the crowd were uncomfortable with Palin declarations like, "Screw the left in Hollywood!" (It's not that they like the left in Hollywood — just the opposite — but the crudeness of Palin's expressions turned them off.)

"I know she is popular, but it is hard to take her seriously given that performance," said Sam Clovis, the conservative Iowa college professor, radio commentator, and sometime political candidate. "Palin was a sad story Saturday. With every speech she gives, she gets worse and worse. If one were playing a political cliche drinking game, no one would have been sober after the first 15 minutes of an interminable ramble. It was really painful."

"I think she has a role in the conservative movement and in the party," Clovis continued, "but she needs to get serious about what it is she can contribute and accomplish."

To be fair, it should be noted that Clovis ran in the 2014 Republican Senate primary against Joni Ernst — a race in which Palin endorsed Ernst. (Citizens United, a sponsor of the Freedom Summit, endorsed Clovis.) But Clovis was by no way alone in faulting Palin's performance.

"Calling Gov. Palin's remarks bizarre and disjointed would be charitable," said a well-connected Iowa Republican. "Her shelf-life, even with the most conservative voters in our party, seems to be near the end. In a day filled with strong performances from likely candidates ranging from Scott Walker to Ted Cruz, her remarks were a distraction."

Very interesting: Nicole Wallace explains at "Morning Joe" that Byron York, who wrote this devastating article at the "Washington Examiner", was one of Sarah Palin's "staunchest defenders" during the 2008 campaign.

January 19, 2015 - Martin Luther King Jr. Day


Martin Luther King speaking to an anti-Vietnam war rally at the University of Minnesota, 
St. Paul on April 27, 1967

By Patrick

If there is one American who impressed the world like no other in the 20th century, it is Martin Luther King. He embodied the spirit of a modern, liberal nation, and he stood for far more than just race equality.

So, to which extent has Martin Luther King succeeded? Tomorrow, there will be a federal national holiday named after him, so one should assume that everything is fine and dandy. However, we all know that this is not the case, and in the light of recent events, one could even say that things are moving backwards, as far as "race relations" are concerned. That is at least how things look like from the outside.

I would like to put up three very different clips regarding this topic: First, a trailer for the upcoming movie "Selma." The movie received rave reviews, but was snubbed for the Oscars, which came as a huge surprise, or even shock, for many.



Second, a brand-new (and slightly controversial) skit by SNL about MLK-day. I really enjoy the fact that SNL continues to make skits about "race relations" which might be considered slightly politically incorrect. I think that they usually hit the right tone, and I hope that they won't change.



Finally, one of the best speeches ever by Martin Luther King, a speech so true, so moving, that the tragedy of this terrible war in Vietnam, which changed America in a very unfortunate way, really becomes "alive" again. People should have listened to Martin Luther King back then. But they didn't, and one year later, he was dead.

Sermon at the Ebenezer Baptist Church on April 30, 1967:

The Palin-family on Instagram: Teaching swearwords to Trig (who can speak!), giving a $ 4,500 Christmas present to Tripp, showing off their cars and other stuff like luxury handbags. Millionaires having fun!

Bristol Palin, pretending to be poor (Radar Online, July 2014)

By Patrick

During the last months, there has been no lack of excitement with the Palin-family. Especially affairs such as the epic, drunken "Palin-brawl" from September 6, 2014 and the "lazy-dog-used-as-step-stool-affair" from January 2015 which made headlines across the nation, and beyond. In both instances, the Palins claimed to be the victims, as usual.

So it's very lucky that the Palin-family finally provides the world with unfiltered access to their real life - on Instagram, without the filter of the evil media. They do not use their real names there, but one of our readers had no trouble finding the accounts of Bristol and Willow Palin, which are both public accounts, open for anyone to look at them. Their screen names are very familiar, though. Bristol Palin uses "bsmp2", which stands for her full name, "Bristol Sheeran Marie Palin",  and Willow uses "wbf_".



The Palins are no strangers to social media. Bristol Palin herself had a Myspace-account several years ago, on which she posted already in 2007 potentially inconvenient messages like "Track told my parents that I am a stoner", "Mother thinks I am pregnant" or "I am a slut" (long before she got pregnant with Tripp). But Bristol Palin got a rare second chance, the chance to the "re-write" her own personal story by publishing an autobiography, in which she for example pretended that Levi Johnston stole her virginity, and by starring in a reality-series about herself and her private life called "Life's a Tripp", with no less than 14 episodes.

In addition, Sarah Palin is of course famous for having turned facebook into her very own propaganda machine. And Bristol also has her own blog, ghostwritten by Nancy French, in which "Bristol" frequently discussed current political issues.

But that Bristol "headed into the deep quicksand of sexual sin" with Levi Johnston, as she wrote in her autobiography, is already old news. Her son Tripp is now six years old, and he and Bristol now enjoy the good life, with a large house, big cars, expensive toys, and other stuff. They have become a family of millionaires. Times have changed.

On Instagram, Bristol loves to tell the world about it all. But let's start with an item which came as a surprise. First of all, I did not know that Trig, who has Down Syndrome, could actually talk. Second, I did not know that the family is teaching him swearwords.

Before we move on: The Palins, they surely are the victims here, just for the record. Definitely victims, no doubt... ;-)

Bristol posted a clip in which she asks Trig what his "favorite word" is - but watch for yourself:


Bristol finds it hilarious, judging by her reaction...

Screenshot from Instagram (click on pictures to enlarge):



Well, what can I say. I have no words, actually.

So Trig can say "Bullshit", but Sarah Palin actually wrote in her infamous "dog-step-stool" post that Trig has to "sign" the word "up"....?


But they are victims, surely! ;-)

Trig's "bullshit" clip also reminds us of Bristol Palin's highly embarrassing moment from 2012, from her reality show "Life's a Tripp":



It should be noted that Bristol Palin has no problems to publicly criticize the parenting of Wendy Davis or that of President Obama.

From the conservative blog "Twitchy", January 2014:


On her blog, Bristol Palin repeatedly attacked Wendy Davis.

January 22, 2014:


January 24, 2014:



The media responded and called Bristol Palin out - Los Angeles Times, January 2014:



Anyway, let's move on.

What did Tripp get for his 6th birthday at the end of December 2014? Look, a car for children, a "Polaris RZR 170" which costs about $ 4,500. That's apparently several times what Levi Johnston pays in child support per month.

Screenshot:


Bristol also made a little clip with Tripp, in which he makes "donuts on the lake" with the car.

Screenshot:



Websites name a price-tag of about $ 4,500 for the car, depending on the model:



Just a few days ago, Bristol presented her new shiny handbag - and no, it's definitely not a fake bag.

Take also a look at the hashtags:
























The fact that Bristol shows off her Louis Vuitton bag on Instagram is particularly ironic in light of the fact that she wrote in her autobiography (p. 125):

"Cindy McCain was walking with me and pulled me aside to talk privately. You can probably tell from television that she looks like a queen and holds herself like royalty. Her bags were so expensive. I've never seen people with so much Louis Vuitton luggage, so many cell phones, and so many constant helpers to do hair and makeup. When I saw their wealth, it was hard to imagine we'd have anything in common to talk about."

Bristol Palin also presents her large, luxurious house in Alaska, which we discussed in an earlier post from 2012, and which she now calls "my little tree fort":



Let's turn to Willow for a moment. What do you think about this "trig selfie"...?

Screenshot:



Willow Palin, who works as a hairdresser, is proud of her large car, and her "custom-made" rims - she is living the good life, like the rest of the family. I wonder why not more people become hairdressers, the job seems to pay incredibly well.




Naturally, Bristol has a big truck as well:



Several months ago, Willow presented "my parents new puppy", the dog "Jill Hadassah", who now became famous as Trig's step stool.

Screenshot:



Well, there is much more, of course - for example Willow posing with her brother Track. But what the heck is going on with Tracks right hand...? Is Track showing the "middle-finger" ALL the time, or just during drunken brawls...? 



On the Instagram account of a friend, we can see Track with a huge mustache, his "gangster-look", I suppose...



Back to Bristol Palin:

Bristol with "my boys"...wait, what???

So, Bristol, do you want to tell us that these are "your" boys? 

Well, we can all take a guess, can we. It is actually not a big secret in Alaska that Sarah Palin is not the biological mother of Trig. Especially in the higher political circles in Alaska, virtually everyone knows it, as we know through direct knowledge. 

We have posted a lot of links regarding Sarah's "pregnancy" with Trig also in the sidebar on the right.

Screenshot:



Also, curiously, Bristol has a large photo of Trig from his "graduation" in her house:



Oh look, a real gem: Tripp applying makeup to Sarah Palin's face. This green stuff really does not look healthy:



There is so much more, but finally, some family group photos, for example from Thanksgiving and Christmas:







There is so much we can learn on social media.

Good night, and good luck!
