Okay, Okay
jeez I finally broke down to watch & listen to the clip of Tripp dropping the f-bomb with Willow and Bristol. I’ve read the comments posted here and
other places, read Lead Foot and Bella’s reviews, Sleuth’s live blogging of the
event and wanted to add my 2 cents for whatever it is worth.
First let’s
take a trip down memory lane back to 2008 when Palin was first forced upon us
by an elderly and completely self-centered and spoiled individual. We’ve all
seen the pictures of Palin dressed ‘inappropriately’ for a given event. The
only time she has dressed in an appropriate manner for a given event was when
the RNC spent $250,000.00 on clothing for the entire Palin clan. Checking out
Palin to see how she has dressed herself for a given event is quite
entertaining and yes I admit it is also quite shallow of me. Palin to fashion
is the same as gawking at a traffic accident. The only difference is via the
miracle of the internet there is no danger to others, the only danger is to my
monitor, my keyboard or my forehead.
Palin
appears to believe that dressing inappropriately for any given event…who can
forget her too big shoes, seriously the woman who claims to be a runner would
surely know exactly her shoe size, appearing at a dress up event in Washington
DC wearing food soiled clothing. The Jewish cross jewelry, the huge belt
buckles, the McCain\Palin visor in Hawaii, the Castro hat at a book signing
event, the gaudy flag pins, oh and the curly curl wig on Oprah, need I go on…is
actually a good thing. Dressing ‘inappropriately’ is a badge of Rogueness and
independence to Palin. But in the real world where most of us live, work
and play the hostess, organizer, employer or friends would be insulted (rightly
so) or more importantly hurt and disappointed that we didn’t respect that
person enough to properly dress the event. Keep in mind everyone and I do mean
every single person has made a mistake with their clothing choices and has
spilled food on their clothes at one time or another. However, most people
learn from their mistakes and do not repeat that same mistake over and over and
over again.

How does
this applied to Tripp dropping the f-bomb on national TV you ask? Give me a few
more minutes we need to set the context. Keep in mind this is the same woman
who claimed her children and close friends and co-workers had no clue she was 7
months pregnant. Gotta love those tight abs! Now think back to other things
that we know for a fact. Palin herself has said that she was never the ‘parent’
to her children, she was more just there to ‘guide’ the way and she allowed
them to make their own mistakes as that is the only way to learn. Ah, bet you
are now seeing where I am going.
Now think
back to the endless media coverage who apparently thought we just need to hear
about every single word Palin uttered or had ghost written on Facebook. Who
will ever forget her use of the word “Cojones” on national TV, or”Pallin' around with terrorists”? When a national media star uses the phrase “The woman
is an idiot” over and over again to describe Palin you would have thought that
would have been the first clue for Palin to finally understand she had crossed
the line that separated a socially acceptable faux paus and are now standing
firmly on the side of willful ignorance.

So now we
have Bristol and Willow, 2 women children and a real child Tripp who is approximately 3 years old who were and still are members of a household
where it is perfectly acceptable to go ‘rogue’. They were raised in a household
where the mother chose not to be the parent, where the father was absent most
of the time and they were left to raise themselves. Sometimes I wonder if the
reason Palin hates wolves so much is because even she realizes that her
children would have been raised better if they had actually been raised by
wolves. None of the Palins have learned any usable coping skills or have the level of
maturity to even realize they are lacking the basic coping skills to deal with
the hardships in life. Children learn coping skills from their parents, other
siblings and family members, class mates and friends.
The Palins
reaction to perceive slight or perceived negative is to respond with threats of
violence, lashing out, shouting and swearing and throwing things and playing
the ultimate victim. Seriously, who can forget Bristol’s -“Giving the middle
finger to the haters”, or in the video Willow’s false claims “people hate my
last name” and “the East Coast and West Coast is filled with Liberals” So
knowing all of this the video isn’t all the bad. Tripp is upset and not getting
what he wants. So what does he do - he lashes out. We’ve all done it; we’ve all
seen it and we’ve all lived through it. Given the level of immaturity in the
Palin household “Life is a Tripp” is truly a ‘Reality’ Show. What you have is a
show about a 3 year old who is more mature than most of his immediate adult
counterparts lashing out to get attention by dropping an f-bomb. His mother and
Aunt are immature for their physical ages that have chosen to model their own
mother’s willful ignorance of what is socially acceptable behavior. The only
bright note in the whole scene is Bristol does realize she doesn’t have a clue
how to discipline Tripp. But what she doesn’t understand yet is she will have to
stop playing the victim before she will learn which coping skills work for her
and Trip. Single woman and men have successfully raised many children. Being single is not a good excuse for poor parenting skills.

| You don't like me? |
Bristol,
Willow and/or Sarah, if any of you are reading this: No one HATES you or your
last name. We just don’t like you very much. It is as simple as that. We don’t
like you. This isn’t Jr. High School we aren't required to like you. This is the real adult world where people
make life changing decisions every day and quite frankly the Palin name isn’t a
BFD to 99.99% of the world. We just aren’t that into you. Not everyone is going
to like you and you can’t make everyone happy. However, what you can do is to
stop playing the victim and blaming others for your own willful ignorance and take
responsibility for your own actions.

It is so
easy now to understand why the Palins and her followers hate President Obama
and his family so much. President Obama and Michele have always advocated
personal responsibility and helping others. It is impossible to take full responsibility
for your own actions while playing the ultimate victim.
