Oh, my. Joe McGinniss has moved next door to the Palins as he writes his book
Edited on Tue May-25-10 01:13 PM by Blue_In_AK
and Sarah's none too happy. :rofl: Her Facebook post:



Just When Ya Think It Can’t Get Any More “Interesting”... Welcome, Neighbor!

Yesterday at 9:17pm

Spring has sprung in Alaska, and with this beautiful season comes the news today that the Palins have a new neighbor! Welcome, Joe McGinniss!

Yes, that Joe McGinniss. Here he is – about 15 feet away on the neighbor’s rented deck overlooking my children’s play area and my kitchen window. Maybe we’ll welcome him with a homemade blueberry pie tomorrow so he’ll know how friendly Alaskans are.

We found out the good news today. Upon my family’s return this morning from endorsement rallies and speeches in the Lower 48 states, I finally got the chance to tackle my garden and lawn this evening! So, putting on the shorts and tank top to catch that too-brief northern summer sun and placing a giddy Trig in his toddler backpack for a lawn-mowing adventure, I looked up in surprise to see a “new neighbor” overlooking my property just a stone’s throw away. Needless to say, our outdoor adventure ended quickly after Todd went to introduce himself to the stranger who was peering in...

Joe announced to Todd that he’s moved in right next door to us. He’s rented the place for the next five months or so. He moved up all the way from Massachusetts to live right next to us – while he writes a book about me. Knowing of his many other scathing pieces of “journalism” (including the bizarre anti-Palin administration oil development pieces that resulted in my Department of Natural Resources announcing that his work is the most twisted energy-related yellow journalism they’d ever encountered), we’re sure to have a doozey to look forward to with this treasure he’s penning. Wonder what kind of material he’ll gather while overlooking Piper’s bedroom, my little garden, and the family’s swimming hole?

Welcome, Joe! It’ll be a great summer – come borrow a cup of sugar if ever you need some sweetener. And you know what they say about “fences make for good neighbors”? Well, we’ll get started on that tall fence tomorrow, and I’ll try to keep Trig’s squeals down to a quiet giggle so we don’t disturb your peaceful summer. Enjoy!

- Sarah Palin




I realize there are a lot more important things to talk about today, but I do love to see Sarah squirm. :rofl:


Oh, and didn't Bristol testify during the Kernell trial that she was alone in the house "out in the middle of nowhere Alaska"? How could Joe McGinniss's deck be 15 feet away if that's the case?

16. Yeah, or
Working in the garden and on the lawn! I really doubt she does anything any more besides spew her lies and hate, and go to the bank with all the money the "morons" on the right pay to hear her speak, or read her books!

6. I don't think so.
There's too much of the "mean girl" oozing through. I think she uses a ghostwriter only when she's making "policy" statements.

Did you catch the part about Piper's bedroom? Why does she always think men are sexually preying on her kids?

11. So she's got mean girl ghost writers.
Not that tough to find someone who can mimic her. She's not that complicated.

8. Wonder who wrote the post for her?
I particularly love this little ditty:

"...my Department of Natural Resources announcing that his work is the most twisted energy-related yellow journalism they’d ever encountered."


So... basically, she had a crony write that a guy who wrote about the underhanded stuff she's pulling isn't true... when it is? :crazy:


Well, if Sarah Palin says it, then it has to be a lie.

15. It takes a master insinuator to make a guy sitting on his deck sound OH, SO creepy
I suspect she knows that he's really not a pedophile, but the snark seemed too good to pass up. God forbid he ever has company on his deck--she's sure to see it as a covert death panel meeting.

19. Is this from the onion?
placing a giddy Trig in his toddler backpack for a lawn-mowing adventure??? This seems neither safe or pleasant.

21. No, it is not.
It is real. I saw it originally posted at The Immoral Minority and followed the link to her Facebook page, where she shows the picture of Joe McGinniss on his deck (his back to the camera, it appears) and surely more than 15 feet away. It looks like he might be grilling.

The comments demonstrate that it's definitely Sarah's page.

22. LOL
The lawn mowing experience just seemed too weird - even for Palin. I mean you are suppose to wear goggles to protect your eyes.

20. I don't think she even wrote that.
No word salad evident there. Just one of her interns who actually learned something in those English classes in college.

23. Satin?
LOL God bless those damn teabaggers. Can't spell worth a crap but they sure put their heart into it. I wish I could stand tall and "humbel" but I'm just a lowly liberal who ain't got nobody to pray for my familey let alone my personal steadfastness. (sobs into bucket)

Who the hell does she think she's kidding with that "doing my own yard work" crap? She's such a piece of work and it's truly a sad commentary on our culture that ANYONE pays attention to her at all.

24. Doing yardwork, baking blueberry pies, watching her
four kids, etc, etc. She's just one busy little bee, isn't she :eyes:. Hope the huge cross she wears around her neck these days doesn't get caught in the lawnmower.
