Our learned contempt for The Palins is their oxygen, and eventually their mortgage payment. It doesn’t matter how low class and stupid they act, if anyone points it out it’s money in the bank for the Wasilla Hillbillies. You could tell how far they’ve fallen by reading that Korey Klingenmeyer, the owner of the house where the Palins recently ran amok, approached the arriving police with the following request: “I want to talk to the head nigger in charge.”
Presumably, this wasn’t another example of an inebriated party host responding to unruly guests with a slurred demand to talk to the President of the United States. However, it clearly was an acknowledgment that the former First Family of Alaska, which had overrun his home and engaged him in fisticuffs, no longer included any “head niggers” of any kind.
That’s what happens when you find heading stuff too difficult and quit your job mid-term.
This man wasn’t particularly honored to be hosting a clan which had nearly occupied the Naval Observatory like former luminaries Walter Mondale, Poppy Bush and Al Gore.
“I don’t need this. I’m here to have a good time, and this fucking drama Palin show shows up, and now we’ve got a shit show,” Klingenmeyer said, slurring his words.
Of course, this is approximately what the nation would have said had John McCain actually won the 2008 presidential election, and probably with about the same degree of impaired enunciation.
What this is really about is score-settling, which Bristol made quite clear.
“A grown woman pushed my little sister.
By this point, I’d already gotten into the car. But when Willow ran to me crying, telling me that some lady had pushed her down, I got out of the car to go talk to her. Any big sister would do this.“Next to God, family is the most important thing to me…”
Let’s call this the Palin family honor code. You honor God daily by getting drunk as fuck and driving around town looking for a good after-party. Then you take a swing at anyone who looks at you funny.
This family code should be kept in mind when considering Sarah Palin’s decision to endorse her Republican successor in office’s political opponents despite the fact that one of them is (egads!) a Democrat.
Former Gov. Sarah Palin (R) is endorsing independent Bill Walker and Democrat Byron Mallott for governor and lieutenant governor of Alaska…
…The endorsement is also a snub to the incumbent Republican Gov. Sean Parnell, who served as Palin’s lieutenant governor and took over as governor in 2009, after Palin stepped down. But the two have long been at odds over the state’s oil tax laws.
Her decision to leave the governor’s office before her term ended angered many Alaskans.
A survey from left-leaning Public Policy Polling last month found 54 percent of likely voters in the state have an unfavorable view of the former governor, while 32 percent view her favorably.
“Oil tax laws” is a nice cover story, but we all know that the truth is that somewhere along the line Governor Parnell acknowledged in some small way that his predecessor in office was less than exemplary in the fulfillment of her duties. And this is the payback.
Not only do the Palins never forget a slight, responding to them is their retirement plan.
Yep, attention brings the money. (See Ann Coulter)
Are the “WAAAAAAH!-silly Hillbillies” from the Hatfield, or the McCoy, leaf-cluster on the family-tree with only one branch going down to the single root?
Ah, doesn’t matter.
“They’re” all the same!!! 😉
I guess the Palin version of “Family Feud” involves heavy drinking, drunken driving, fist-fights, and breaking chairs over people’s heads.
“IN THIS CORNER…”
The Palins have become a “reality show” that hasn’t made it to the top tier with the duck guys and Honey Boo-Boo.
This is true.
I’m not surprised that the Palins’ reality show flopped. It couldn’t possibly compete with the Palins’ real life.
That’s because it was a fake reality show, even more fake than your average one. This brawl is the reality. If they really wanted to cash in, they’d put their real lives on TV. And as much as I hate reality TV, I can’t say I wouldn’t tune in for the train wreck.
The train wrecks are too infrequent and the Palin gang inherently lacks enough quirkiness, aka character, to keep viewers tuning in on a regular basis. (Disclosure, I’ve never watched any of these cheesy TV offerings. They seem like a mash-up of “Queen for a Day,” “Roller Derby,” and An American Family but with writers.
Her TV shows have failed, because the cable companies try to make her seem more normal and intelligent than she really is.
If they decided to follow this clan around 24 X 7, I’m sure it would be one of the highest-rated “reality” shows in history!
Hell, maybe even I’d watch at least one episode of “The WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!-silly Hillbillies!”
Though I think Irene Ryan was a much more attractive and intelligent “Granny!”
And Jethro was far, far, brighter than Todd.
Actually, the Palin’s make the Clampett clan look like a family of scholars!
What would be nice is if all of the media ignored the Palins and did not report a thing on them for 3 years. Then they could show how they are after NO attention.
Wonder how many “leftie” domestic US targets fell became “honey trap” victims — The Guardian Met police to pay more than £400,000 to victim of undercover officer.

I’ve been out of town all week, but at the hotel the TV was always on FOX. I nearly fell off the chair in the lobby when they showed (repeatedly) a lead story on how the Palins were snubbed and insulted by CNN.
hahahahahahaha!
Well, I couldn’t see the whole story, but apparently the Palin family is all indignant about how they’ve been treated outside their snowboot-kissing friends at FOX. Imagine Sarah and the kiddies not getting the respect and adoration they sooo richly deserve!
Wishing they would just go the hell away.
