Word of a pending divorce between former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and former First Dude Todd is gaining a lot of traction in Internet land.The article links to Ace of Spades HQ, "Team Palin: Um, No, We're Not Divorcing; Please Stop Makin' Things Up." Ace then links to Conservatives for Palin, "Palin Camp Shoots Down Ridiculous Divorce Rumors Spread by CNN Stringer Dennis Zaki."
“Palin divorce” is the fourth-most searched topic right now on Google Trends.
There’s only one problem with that. It’s not true. Palin spokeswoman Meg Stapleton is shooting down the story by an Alaskan blogger who claimed to have inside information on a split.
Stapleton posted a response to the charge on Palin’s Facebook page.
“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),” Stapleton wrote.
“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,” she said.
For the smears, check Memeorandum. Here's one, for example, "Todd and Sarah Palin to Divorce: Affairs on Both Sides":
According to C4P:
The release is in response to a ludicrous rumor being spread by Alaskan CNN stringer Dennis Zaki. Zaki, who previously bought into rumors of Trig Truth, picked up these allegations from the same source - the rabidly anti-Palin, Trig Truth-espousing anonymous blogger "Gryphen" of the blog "Immoral Minority". Gryphen is a friend of Zaki's, along with fellow Team Truth members Shannyn Moore, Phil Munger, and "AKMuckraker" of the Mudflats.More at Memeorandum.
The rumor was already being picked up and spread around the echo chamber of the Alaskan Team Truther blogs...not only by Zaki, but by fellow Trig Truther "Doctor Phil" Munger of Progressive Alaska.Sounds like the Palins are cutting these rumors off at the knees.
Good for them.

UPDATE! From Pamela Geller, "CNN Tells, Sells More Lies About Palin, it's Time to Expose the Truth About Obama" (FULL CONTENT WARNING: PRESIDENT OBAMA'S MOTHER ANN DUNHAM SOFT-PORN PICS AT ATLAS SHRUGS!! LINKS BELOW!! - CLICK AT YOUR OWN RISK!! - REPEAT!! CLICK ANN DUNHAM NUDE PICS AT YOUR OWN RISK!!):
The Palin camp has issued a statement decrying rumors of a Palin divorce being spread by Alaskan CNN stringer Dennis Zaki, sourced to an anonymous Anchorage blogger and the National Enquirer.Now that's what I'm taking about!
Let's understand this, CNN won't touch the birth certificate issue, the Rezko/Auchi corruption, his anti-semitism, ACORN/SEIU ties and corruption and legitimate stories that need investigation. But they write fiction about Palin. Daily. So why not tell the truth about Obama and his reported strange sexual predilections? My question is, it is well know[n] that Obama allegedly was involved with a crack whore in his youth. Very seedy stuff. Why aren't they pursuing that story? Find the ho, give her a show! Obama trafficked in some very deviant practices, where's the investigation?
Why isn't CNN pursuing the nude pornographic of Obama's mom, Stanley, (untouched pictures here and here and here) - I never ran the pics as it was unseemly and wasn't relevant. But this assault on Palin is too disgusting. It's time to tell the ugly truth about the enemy in the White House and their whores in the media. It's Obama operatives spreading the Palin lies. They know we won't play dirty, so it's time to play dirty.
I strongly recommend that conservatives start sending emailing these family pictures taken by Obama's spiritual father, Frank Marshall - child rapist and famous communist. I say when they ratchet up the lies, then we ratchet up the truth.

"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 response, which I got via phone at 5:35 this afternoon. Take that to the bank [original typos corrected].
UPDATE II: Actually, I didn't know the Ann Dunham nude shots were published in October. See, Astute Bloggers, "Naughty Obama Mamma."
I guess I wasn't the only one.
Hmmm...
ReplyDeleteI never even heard any rumors before this post...
Gossip is gossip, and nothing more. I neither know or care what the state of the Palin marriage is, but intend to give 'em the benefit of the doubt & assume they're happily hitched, until one of 'em confirms "I don't," in their own words and voice.
Of course, I feel the same about the "real facts" behind the pic of Crowley helping Gates down the WH steps, while Obama leads the way in front of 'em. (Stupid netyard gossip), and the "real facts" behind the Elizabeth Gates compliment/diss of Crowley's daughter. uninformed liars, pulling scenarios from their sphincters.)
Folks make crap up about the hidden motivations, situations, and circumstances about which they have no real knowledge all the time, particularly as concerns people they oppose for one reason or another.
(No wedding ring in that photo? Must mean chilly nights in Mooselvania, AK.)
(Look who's helping Gates down the stairs... Must mean the other guy doesn't give a damn about the old man...)
It's all made up bullshit, but that doesn't stop fools and fibbers from posting & reposting that kinda crap, all over the internet...
It's stupid, but as long as it's about the "right" people (the controversial, the polarizing, the inordinately famous) there will always be a ready made market of folks willing to believe the worst about the people they hate, and a ready supply of idiots willing to feed it to 'em, too.
Re: the update...
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's just what I'm talkin' about.
Real class.
"I'm not sayin' it's true, y'understand, but in the name of newsworthiness, I have a duty to repeat whatever crap I overhear, because people are sayin' it."
Brilliant.
You're everything you decry.
Good Lord, scurrilous rumors about a celebrity? This is unheard of.
ReplyDeleteAnybody spreading this rumor is a tool- and should be ashamed of themselves... talk about desperate. Hard watching the Dear Leader crash-n-burn, I guess-
ReplyDeletePalin’s resignation obviously puts yet more pressure on Obama to finally get some results, as the soaring rhetoric isn’t hypnotizing the plebes like it used to… and now there’s another viable alternative waiting in the wings.
Alaska was a pretty corrupt system until she stepped in. Her reforms took on entrenched politicians (inc. Republicans), a mafioso-style union boss, and Big Oil.
Wouldn’t it have been nice if Obama had been principled and brave enough to confront the corrupt Chicago Democratic Machine? Or shady political operators like Tony Rezko? Racist preachers? Instead of doing business with every last one of them?
IMO Palin could trounce him in 2012, when Americans would vote for the Gipper-in-Heels in droves- they’ll surely being looking for such an antidote to the Bolshevik con-artist who’s currently taking a wrecking-ball to this society.
No wonder the far-left moonbats -along with Team Obama’s David Plouffe and his internet squads- are out to destroy her.
Go get em ‘Cuda-

Don't gossiping liars have anything better to do with their time? Sheesh. GET OVER IT ALREADY! Why keep coming up with more lies about Palin? Why keep shining a spotlight on her? Shine the spotlight elsewhere as in on OBAMA and his SOCIALIST AGENDA that he's trying to shove down all of our throats. CHANGE that you can certainly BELIEVE IN!
