got this a little while ago. can’t verify, but maybe the enquirer will…
Subject: [mds-austin] Is there any part of Sarah Palin that isn’t a lie?
While calling for the campaign today, I heard interesting stories from two donors.
First, a donor in Anchorage who says that the National Enquirer is in town with a multi-million dollar budget (remember, these are the folks who nailed Edwards):
The reason that Palin’s mother-in-law wouldn’t endorse her for governor in 2006 and is supporting Obama now is because Sarah Palin had an affair with Todd Palin’s best friend for more than a year, which - when Todd found out - she told him he could go back “being a nobody” if he wanted to say anything in public, and which led to a breakup of a friendship stretching back to high school.
Also,. Track Palin is in the Army and headed to Iraq as the alternative to 10-15 in jail for “attempted murder.” Track and two other “sons of the local leadership” vandalized 110 school buses, not just breaking out all the windows, but cutting the brake lines (thus the “attempted murder”). Since none of them had any prior record, the judge allowed them to volunteer for the Army in return for the charges being dismissed, and as a way of keeping things quiet (which the Palins wanted).
From a donor in Colorado who just returned yesterday from Ireland:
Sarah Palin has listed her “foreign travel” as being trips to Kuwait and Germany to see the Alaska NG troops, and a visit to Ireland. Turns out the “visit” was a 90-minute layover in Shannon Airport. When the Irish Press got hold of this this past week, it was a sensation (like the rest of Europe, the Irish want to see the Republican Party “pushing up daisies” as my great grand-uncle used to describe a “good Republican”). The Irish government contacted the GOP campaign and asked if a 90-minute layover in an international airport constituted “a visit to our country?” As of Friday night, the McCain/Palin website no longer lists that in her “foreign travel.” BTW - she only got a passport in 2007 - lots of “foreign policy experience” there, eh?.
And we don’t have to do a thing with these. America is going to be reading this stuff in the supermarket checkout line, soon. As another donor (a woman) said to me, “It’s embarassing that a national political party would nominate people like this to a position of responsibility.”
Cheers,
