Is Scott Richter actually Trig Palin's real dad?

[demobabe]

The National Enquirer is supposed to be breaking the story of a supposed affair between Sarah Palin and her husband's "business partner." Question here is Scott Richter the "business partner" they're talking about?

There are rumors that Scott Richter is an ex-boyfriend of Sarah's - perhaps before she married Todd.

But here is the funny stuff:

Scott and Debbie Richter work for Todd and Sarah Palin. John Bitney also worked for the Palins.

John Bitney and Debbie Richter have an affair, leaving Scott Richter in the dust.

Todd Palin fires John Bitney over this mess.

John Bitney and Debbie Richter get a Marriage license in 2007.

Debbie Ricter signs at least a couple Quit Claim deeds over to Scott Richter on properties that are co-owned by the Palin's.

Property records: http://www.matsugov.us/myproperty/list.aspx?Choice=owner&searchParm=PALIN+TODD

There are oddities with the birth of Trig:

MatSu hospital doesn't have record of his birth on April 18. Nobody seems to have a birth certificate. Media have been making paternity test requests.

Why was Sarah Palin so reluctant to reveal her pregnancy until the 7th month? Did she fly back to Alaska in labor to have the baby in the small town where she could control the information? Was there information she was trying to hide that might have come out had she birthed the baby in a Texas hospital?

[demobabe]

1. Another thought: Don't hospitals store samples of the Umbilical Cord blood?

hmm...

[rainbow4321]

12. Here is a thread about Bitney and how he was fired

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=6889764&mesg_id=6889764

[demobabe]

23. Exactly. They try to say it was "amicable" but it wasn't...

Pretty harsh.

[blossomstar]

33. Petty, vindictive people.

We are like a third world country with this sleezy underhanded crowd! I didn't think I could be embarassed more than with Bush. So very sad for America.

[krkaufman]

41. Reminds me of when I was a supervisor in an manufacturing plant in So. Missouri ...

... 20+ years ago. An unusually large number of workers having affairs.

[regnaD kciN]

30. Only if the parents request (and pay a hefty fee for) it...

...at least that was the case in Washington state ten years ago. I doubt Alaska would have any more "government regulations" requiring it than down her in blue-state Washington.

[emilyg]

34. Not routinely.

[nadinbrzezinski]

53. Not unless you pay for the cord banking

[demobabe]

54. When I had my baby

They took a sample of the cord blood to be kept on file. They do it here with every newborn - regardless of whether or not you do cord blood banking.

[kittykitty]

73. Not unless you request it, and pay for it to be stored.

13. Here are some full names

And you can read more about this at: http://2lesbosgoinatit.wordpress.com/2008/09/04/sarah-palin-blog-comments-from-alaska-scott-richter-and-more/

The Palins also have a number of real estate holdings in Big Lake, AK co-owned by Debbie and Scott Richter. The properties are organied as “Richter Investments LLC.” The Richters also own a portion of the Palins residence in Wasila… (Assuming the Palins live rent free right now in the Governors’ Mansion in Juneau).

Interestingly, Debbie Richter was Palin’s campaign treasurer. Richter was awarded a job as the Director of the Alaska Permanent Fund Dividend Division for her service. For those who don’t know, the State of Alaska gives its citizens “free money” checks every year out of this fund. This “free money” comes from oil royalties collected and investments. The Fund is currently worth $35 billion.

Would you choose the Governor’s campaign treasurer - and property co-owner - to honestly hand out oil royalties? Under her leadership in 2006, all Permanent Fund claims from residents (you have to make a claim for your check) were lost in a computer data entry failure…

22. Did she take office in 2006?

I'm going to read the link. Wow!

[demobabe]

29. Elected Governor in 2006. Ted Stevens even campaigned for her!

It just goes on and on.

[Born_A_Truman]

48. Palin censored reports...

http://www.juneauempire.com/stories/031807/loc_20070318015.shtml

It was a crisis that few people outside the division heard about at the time. When the Palin administration took office in December of 2006, transition teams began looking at the operation of every state agency and writing reports for the new governor.

Members of the news media, including the Alaska Budget Report, a Juneau-based newsletter covering state government, asked for copies of the reports.

Eventually, the reports were released - minus the explanation of what had happened at the Permanent Fund Division.

(snipped)

"No other governor in my experience has ever kept those reports confidential, and certainly never censored them in the way the Palin administration did," he said.

ETA: Can't type tonight :(

[texanwitch]

32. Good work.

Excellent.

[Windy]

39. there is something here folks... Richter is the business partner ..look at this docket entry

09/04/2008 Order Denying Motion Case Motion #3: Motion to Make Case File Confidential 0.00 0.00
09/03/2008 Motion to Make Case File Confidential Attorney: Pro per (0100001) Scott Alan Richter (Petitioner); Case Motion #3

Apparently the judge denied an emergency motion to make his divorce case confidential...TODAY

[demobabe]

43. WOW!

Lawyers are out in full force!

[krkaufman]

44. Very interesting. n/t

[demobabe]

58. John Bitney divorced too, and remarried 2 months later!

Geez! What do these people do up there? Have this massive partner swapping fest going on?

64. Thanks Windy.

:thumbsup:

[demobabe]

57. Interesting, the guy has been divorced twice

http://www.courtrecords.alaska.gov/pa/pa.urd/pamw2000.o_case_sum?47349474

Not that it means anything... Wonder if the former Susan Richter knows about any of this?

[texanwitch]

9. Do I smell freeper.

Wanted to get in on this.

[demobabe]

15. No, you don't smell Freeper.

:hi:

[texanwitch]

21. Gone already.

Bye bye.

They are coming out of the wood work.

[demobabe]

37. They were quick on that one!

:D

[texanwitch]

42. The name was give away.

And in caps.

Good work on the info.

[symbolman]

17. Maybe you don't know that demobabe

was once sued by Michael Savage's folks for a half a million bucks?

I would say that would most definately put her in the good guy catagory...

[blossomstar]

25. Impressive.

[Patiod]

68. What happened with that?

Was it for something written here or elsewhere?

Savage is a horrible creature.

[FrenchieCat]

10. Is this a soap that I missed?

[demobabe]

27. New Reality Show. "Sarah Palin: It's Extremely Complicated"

:D

[NJCher]

49. OMD!

Tears rolling out of my eyes on that one!!

Soap opera, though.

This is a California yacht company, though you will note in another picture description that they sell "internationally." "John and Debbie Richter" is a pretty common name, so I wonder if this pair is our subject couple:



Here's the copy that accompanied the photo:

John and Debbie Richter are pictured here on the day of delivery on their 51 Bluewater. John has already started to figure out ways to upgrade her. Dave Jacobs was the selling agent and says the Richters were a real pleasure to work with, and he know's they will have many hours of fun aboard their new yacht.

Damn, John, didn't you just upgrade "her" a short time ago?

See link at: http://www.bayyachts.net/bayyachts/bayyachts_10.html

I think it would be worth a phone call to see if this couple is from Alaska. If it is, it might be where some of that computer failure money went.



Cher

[tridim]

11. Are they swingers?

[demobabe]

19. Good question....

Interestingly enough, Todd Palin wasn't wearing a wedding ring when his wife spoke last night.

[regnaD kciN]

40. Lots of "old style" guys don't...

Up until about forty or fifty years ago, it was traditional for the wife (i.e. the chattel :grr: ) to be the only one who wore a ring. It signified she was "owned," after all. Besides, only that kind of man wore jewelry, if you know what I mean. :eyes:

[demobabe]

71. There might be actual truth to what you're joking about

Rumors are that Scott Richter is Sarah's ex-boyfriend, and is Todd's friend.

Scott, Sarah, and Todd own several properties together.

Interesting timing on the birth of Trig Palin: he was born roughly 8 months after Scott's divorce.

[Atman]

14. Oh fer Christ sake, come on already...

I almost got a boner from that story! If only half of it's true, it's would be earth shattering if the candidate were not seen as the GOP saviorette. Because then they'll just cover for her anyway and it will all be for naught.

.

[BeyondGeography]

18. My head is spinning

:crazy:

[JI7]

24. that might explain why he doesn't hold Trig as much as the sisters do

and when he does it's not in as fatherly way. i saw some other pics and video of him with the youngest daughter Piper and he was much more affectionate with her as fathers would be.

[Cali_Democrat]

26. I noticed that also

Love cannot be faked and it's quite obvious that he isn't affectionate at all towards Trig.

[msallied]

36. It's probably just because he's an asshole. Bristol's likely got daddy issues as well.

[cui bono]

28. There's got to be something to who Trig's parents are.

No one in their right mind would have given a speech and flown two connecting flights then drive 45 minutes just to give birth in their home town if they weren't hiding something.

61. Thanks for the "Flow" Chart"

Seriously, until I saw the helpful flow chart (jeez, that really sounds icky considering her water breaking), I didn't really see her traveling as that big of an issue.

The flow chart makes it clear that either she's a very reckless woman who endangered AN UNBORN CHILD or she is hiding something.

:thumbsup:

[cui bono]

84. And could have disrupted the travel plans of many passengers and the flight schedule

of the airline. The airline has said that if someone got on their plane knowing they were in labor and they had to make an emergency landing that they would charge the pregnant woman for the fuel etc...

[curious one]

31. I smell more dirt.

[krkaufman]

35. SWEET, Sweet Irony ....

I just want to say how sweet is the irony of all the Right Wingers clamoring for John Edwards' political end and relishing in his National Enquirer-exposed affair.

Little did they realize that the Edwards Nat.Enq. story and their wallowing in it would create a situation where an Enquirer report of their VP candidate having an affair now carries much more weight in the eyes of the readers.

OOPSY!

:popcorn:

[CoffeeCat]

38. Some stuff....

--If you look at the MatSu hospital "Nursery Page, they have pictures of the babies born on each day, and their
weight, parents' names, etc. There is no picture or mention of Trig or the Palins giving birth, in that hospital
on that day. Possibly the parents decided not to have the information about Trig's birth published on the site.
However, it's worth mentioning that it's not there.

--Palin didn't reveal the pregnancy to anyone. In fact, I've been reading articles from major Alaskan newspapers,
around the time she announced that she was pregnant (March 9, 2008). According to an article in the "Juneau Empire"
her parents didn't even know that she was pregnant. Bizarre.

--Regarding the delivery. This has been talked about so much, and I find the circumstances suspect--at best, and flat out
lies, at worst. According to the "Juneau Empire" Palin "went into labor" while she was attending a Texas Governor's
Conference on April 18th. http://www.juneauempire.com/stories/042008/sta_270391932.shtml

Palin has later stated that she was not in labor, but that she was leaking amniotic fluid while she was in Texas. She
insists that she was not in labor now. However, Palin arrived in Anchorage after flying in from Texas, at 10:30 p.m.

She then goes to the hospital. Her doctor induces labor and she delivers at 6:30 a.m on Friday morning--eight
hours after landing in Anchorage.

http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:gliLfGwRkrUJ:www.adn.com/626/story/382864.html+Sarah+Palin+induce+labor&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=2&gl=us

What I find interesting is that this baby was a month early--but the doctor induced. I'm no doctor, but isn't an
induction done when there is a problem? Like when there is an infection or if the fetus is in distress? Palin
admitted to people that she was "leaking amniotic fluid." The doctor in this article says that patients should
always see their OB if their water breaks or if they are leaking amniotic fluid--and to him leaking and breaking
mean the same thing--and go to the doctor!

If this story is indeed true, then it seems obvious that Palin was in labor in Texas--even though today, she insists
that she wasn't. If she wasn't, then why was her baby born less than 24 hours later in Alaska?

I'm also wondering why the induction was done. Doctors say that there is a risk of infection if you don't go to
the doctor after your water breaks. Did she get an infection sometime during her 10 hours of travel between
Texas and Alaska that day?

Things just don't add up with this. America deserves answers. Maybe the answers are benign and easily
explained, but in my opinion, we don't know the real story.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

59. If family is so important and such a "blessed event", why didn't Palin announce as soon as she knew?

[mitchum]

74. Particularly a fundie religious fanatic who see children as "blessings from God"...

how very strange that she wasn't trumpeting the arrival of that baby fom day one.
How very strange.

45. I know that it's tinfoil hat territory but something is just wierd about all of it...

[demobabe]

55. It's this weird hiding of everything

There is just something really odd about some of the events and then the overreaction by the McCain camp. Why are they so defensive?

[vaberella]

46. Dear God. Truly, this is too much for me to handle.

It's like every minute scandal, after scandal, after scandal erupts and it's ridiculously damaging. It's good, because the Repubs deserve this karma, however I don't know how a person who claims to be normal and "hockey mom" gets into all this. What is her schedule like to have time for this shit.

[demobabe]

47. Interesting!

From court records of Debbie and Scott's Divorce:

07/24/2007 Petition for Dissolution of Marriage

Trig Palin was born almost exactly 8 months from this petition!

Coincidence?

[Born_A_Truman]

50. Maybe the First Dude couldn't have more kids

After 4, many couples decide that's enough kids.

As for the labor induction, I wonder about that myself. Wouldn't the doctor try let him come to full term and put the mother on bed rest?

[southerncrone]

51. Bombshell! This is pure Alaskan Gold!

The National Enquirer is become our only brave news source.

Can't wait to see what the MSM does with this story. Bury it I'm sure. :eyes:

You all know the family values crowd are the freakiest damn people on earth. All of this is probably true and then some we did not want to know about. Bookmarking this thread.

60. EVIDENCE!!! Without it the MSM won't touch it.

Thats a lot like Astroturfing..

Some of us are paying attention..

I've seen Demobabe take down some big people on intuition and hunches..

I'd bet the farm on this one.. :)

State policy on co-worker relations

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Sat, 2008-07-26 11:31.

There is no such state policy. Even if there were, Debbie Richter was not Bitney’s co-worker. He worked in the Governor’s Office in the Capitol Building and she works in the Dept. of Revenue in another office building. This was not a matter of any state policy being breached. This is an incident right out of high school–"You’re seeing my ex-girlfriend and me and my gang will get you." The Palins decided to go after Bitney because Scott Richter, Todd’s friend and Sarah’s ex-boyfriend asked them to. Richter is also a business partner with the Palins in investment property in the Mat-Su Valley. The Palins and Scott Richter would not let it go after John Bitney was hired by Rep. Harris. Richter wanted him fired from his new job and the Palins tried to apply pressure to make this happen. They underestimated Rep. Harris who is tough and honorable–qualities foreign to the Palins. This tawdry affair should sicken Alaskans who care about their State. We elected an individual with no moral compass, no education, no background, no experience, just a blinding need to be the most popular girl in school. "Cute" can only take you so far then the veneer starts to peel.

[Joanne98]

81. You mean Trig doesn't have a birth certificate? My God!

No wonder she won't talk to the media. She's a one woman soap opera!

[shayes51]

82. Can we please turn off the Jerry Springer Show and

focus on the issues?

[dansolo]

85. Will the fundies still support her if this is true?

They don't care about their hypocrisy regarding teen pregnancy, but having an affair and a child resulting from that dalliance should make them drop her immediately. If this was a Democrat, they would even probably say that the child having Downs Syndrome was probably God's punishment for her sins.
