ABC reports that the trip Palin claims was the final straw that led to her firing Walt Monegan, one he supposedly took against her orders, was actually authorized by her chief of staff.
So either Palin is incompetent (didn’t let her Chief of Staff know she didn’t want Monegan going to DC) or she’s a liar.
You choose.
Oh, and what was the trip for? To get funds for an anti-rape program. Given Palin’s record on making rape victims pay for tests to catch their rapists, I’m going with incompetent, because I’m sure Palin really didn’t want an anti-rape program.

Liar. Next?
“I fired him because he took a trip to DC which my office approved, to talk about funding for an anti-rape program.”
Smoooooth.
Oh whatthehell, why not both. Incompetent. Liar.
So when the story says:
Does that mean that Monegan *didn’t* ask for any per-diem reimbursement, unlike his boss, who took it even when she was staying at home?
Which brings me back to my running theme in threads today. Anybody actually confirmed that this woman has paid her income taxes? Is that why she won’t release the forms–they don’t exist?
“I was so glad my Chief of Staff approved Walt’s trip. It was exactly what I needed to fire him.”
A flip flop for the books.
Sarah is a liar? But she’s pretty! Pretty girls never lie nor do they use their looks to advance themselves through life nor do they use their looks to get away with abusing their powers!
Jees.
Talk about “revelations”…
To me that is the larger story:
SHE IS AGAINST ANYONE WHO WANTS TO PREVENT RAPE!
Maybe she wants her husband to stay busy while she’s in the Governor’s office lying her ass off?
errrr
why choose?
(KO hawking his “Aunt Sarah’s Moose Stew” on his program right now! Hysterical.)
It’s morbidly ironic, because what she’s being accused of is actually *more* sympathetic.
“I didn’t fire him because he wouldn’t fire my horrible abusive monster of an ex-brother in law, how dare you accuse me of such a thing! No, I fired him because he wanted to prevent rape!”
(I suspect the brother-in-law’s monstrousness is a bit overblown, but it’s still a more sympathetic narrative)
Rape is God’s will.
Maybe rape is really abstinence to the Sarah Palins of the country? Yeah, yeah, the girls didn’t want to have sex but the guy (or Daddy) did!
Oh gawd. I’m getting stomach pains even thinking about this. Will America be more accepting of rape under a McPalin White House? I think so.
well done eli
heh
It seems to me that her whole thought process is that everything has to “unfold” in all its horror, because that is what God wants…i.e., to interfere with things like rape goes against some unknown will and lesson that God is trying to teach the victim….
Except…for subpoenas…they are issued by Satan when they target her family.
She’s twisted.
Is that anything like “boys will be boys” – I’ll bet that’s what Sarah thinks.
Now if she could just figure out a way to enable aerial raping…
I’ll bet she’s curiously kinky!!!
LOL Exactly. Everything goes until someone wants to go after her! What a coward. She IS Dick Cheney in drag and she is the mirror image of Harriet Miers.
Um, please feel free to delete if my attempt to merge Palin atrocities went too far…
or that women should just submit to men like they are supposed to do
If she looked like Harriet Miers…there would be no race.
Nah, she’s on top.
*g*
It’s very possible Sarah got aroused today with the news that George Bush is wanting to rape the coffers of the American people to bail out Big Business!
Wouldn’t surprise me. I bet she eats kittens for breakfast. I know Dick Cheney does because I have a bumper sticker that makes this claim:
http://whitenoiseinsanity.word…..-stickers/
See? Bumper stickers don’t lie, especially when it’s about a right winger. ;-)
I shudder at Harriet’s image too, but it’s the fact that Palin won’t show up when she’s subpoenaed or her husband that makes her a spitting image of Harriet Liars.
Haha
She kills and eats great big innocent animals…for fun.
Oh exactly.
Operative word being “spitting”.
It’s always a bad sign when you can’t remember which of Palin’s stories on troopergate is the current one.
Sheesh, I wish our Liberals were running a McCain/Palin ticket in the Great White North …
Ian !
Nah..I’m going with compulsive..
((((( Kay )))))
Did you see KO sign that Cheque ?
Was his Father a Werewolf ? *g*
Here’s my interpretation. With Sarah, everything is about a) Sarah and b) appearances.
So, if there is not rape prevention program, and no rape investigations because women have to pay for their own rape kits and investigations, there is therefore no rape.
See? Everyone’s happy. Everyone looks good. Especially Sarah.
S…nevermind.
Digg it now!
Yeah, I can’t remember if she fired him to stop him from using WMDs, or if she fired him to promote democracy.
Rape’s not a joking matter.
She fired him because he hates her freedom.
Oh yes….*swigging milk*…spitting is good for the soul. LOL ;-)
Of course it’s not. But Palin is.
Yes, she does lie rather incompetently…
Bah hahahahahaha! Don’t know. *aiming microphone at you now to answer the question* ;-)
Sarah may be a member of AIP but she is a Republican to the bone – she lies like a pro.
I know how you guys feel about Planned Parenthood sometimes but this is helarious…
http://tbogg.firedoglake.com/2…..to-choose/
LOL
Bingo, Eli!
L8R …
The GoddessRachel is on ! *g*It’s not. I get lightheaded just discussing the topic, but what is so creepy about Sarah Palin is she goes after anyone who is anti-rape. There is something very psychologically wrong with this woman. I can’t put my finger on it, but I’m thinking there something….well, you know….down there *pointing to Sarah’s nether region*….that looks kind of male-ish. It’s the only thing I can think of for a “Mom” to be pro-rape.
Love her!
Salon had an article this week on the unrelenting lies of W, McCain, and Palin. Im sure you can find it on its page. It says W has set a high bar, but the others lie as frequenly…to the degree one cannot count all the lies. The whole thing is such an open secret.
You can’t be insinuating what I think you are…can you?
Come on, Eli. You know she fired him for Oil…
Great question! Been asking about her financial status for quite a while myself! Just how did Sarah, and first Dude come to own three houses on her salary as mayor of Walissa, and the Gov of Alaska, neither of which pays a large salary, considering that first Dude was only working part time for the oil companies and racing snow mobiles? I mean it does take quite a sum of money to raise 5 children, and maintain 3 houses, even if the state of Alaska does reimburse you $3,500. for each head.
This has been amazing to me. With all the hoopla over Theresa Heinz Kerry’s finances, just who is asking about Sarah and the Dude’s finances? Crickets! It’s about time someone asked the obvious question.
What a great idea! I wonder how many cards Ms. Pro-Rape Sarah has received so far? Oh what the hell am I asking….she would never answer that question! Hell, she answers no questions!!!
we sent them some dough this morning. I almost did it under my Palin baby name
I assumed you were referring to the injustice perpetrated on American workers (aka fundamentals of the economy) by those in higher positions.
I did see that and it’s almost become a joke. She and McC just lie – even when they don’t need to. I have never seen anything like it in my life. It stuns me and they continue to tell the lie even after it is disputed.
LOL I am….I’m thinking…Sarah has duped us all….she’s really a MAN! I mean really, she has to be to be so nonchalant about rape as she is. And she’s not a typical man that is horrified about rape or his own daughters having to deal with that kind of violent crime….she’s the creepy guy we went to school with who hated women (a guy I knew in our graduating class of 120 students) and then you find out later he became a serial rapist and then killed the last one!
Doesn’t it seem plausible?
/very snarky I’m being, of course
maybe Bristol was raped, and Sarah just welcomed the rapist into the family…
Johnny & Sarah take after George Bush quite well. Here’s the evidence:

Boy things do not work if all the ads haven’t totally loaded. My comment above was a reply to Prarie Sunshine.
Moyers tonight on the financial mess…good introduction.
Could be and some of us (ahem…moi) think because little Trig was born with Downs Syndrome it’s quite possible those of the same/immediate genetic pool were involved. It’s possible. I have zero proof, but like I said, maybe Sarah is pro-rape because she knows Todd needs to stay busy during the day. *smacking my mouth* I can’t believe I just said that for the 100th time this week online! ;-)
I’ve known people like that. My mom used to describe them as people who never tell the truth when a lie will do.
Under no circumstances should they be awarded ANY power over others, much less be elected President and Vice President of the United States.
good, I’ll be sure to check it out
I think that’s kind of a low road comment.
what is the source of the “smacking my mouth” quote?
Who said it…Sarah? Todd? About whose mouth?
Me too. Just love Bill.
What ? Watch Moyers when Rachel’s on ?
That’s why God made Tivo …
PS, you’re lucky I’m not a tattle tale…
Not really, just because Sarah is pretty doesn’t mean she doesn’t have a cold heart. There was a story in the news sometime this year of how a mother (a homely one…not attractive at all), her son, and his friends kidnapped a little black boy, raped & tortured him, and then killed him (they put his body in a shallow grave) and they did it all in front of the mother who actually sat there and applauded what they were doing.
I don’t think Sarah would go that far, of course, but she is the type who will keep family secrets very well and would never do the right thing in the end because protecting her family is the most important thing to her.
My mouth. I just said something and then smacked my mouth. Read slower! LOL
You are closing in an appalling question.
Is it conceivable this woman might believe we must procreate to the max, by whatever means?
Sorry, Kay. I stand by my comment. Your comment notwithstanding, going there is not nice. Regardless of how ugly her heart is. Two wrongs make a right? No.
“Privatizing gains, and Nationalizing losses…something very wrong”
And 21st Century Socialism; right wing would have shreeked if Democrats had done this.. Stay tuned…
I’m not apologizing, but I appreciate your thoughts on this. ;-)
Some of you who are just joining us are missing the snark that originates in the first 10 or so comments at the beginning of this thread.
No one here loves rape or would stand by a family member who has raped a girl or a woman.
Not too comfortable with some of this speculation.
We should call it “Palinism” to show from whence the snark originates …
Some of us who are just joining you read all the comments.
Really. And you’re thinking we all enjoy the act of rape and will pop popcorn to watch it? Are you serious????? Sarah is the one who fires people who want to use funds TO PREVENT RAPE. She’s the asshole. Not us.
Exactly. She’s the one where all hypocrisy, lying, and outright perversion starts!
I don’t think you enjoy rape and I don’t think you’re an asshole. I can’t imagine why you would ask that question. What is it that wobbly says? Slow your roll.
What question did I ask that offended you?
By the way, we all know why Sarah Palin is against funding rape kits. She knows that when a 13 year old girl or a 49 year old woman is raped, they most likely will want to abort the baby if they know they became pregnant from this violent crime. Sarah has made herself perfectly clear that if a pregnancy results from rape or incest or both…abortion is out of the question!
See?
She’s the one fucked in the head. Not me.
(OT) Really pans Greenspan
Your comment at #84.
You’re confusing me. After all the comments above, you’re concerned about the one question I asked at #84? LOL!
Okay, going to bed now shaking my head until I’m out like a light.
You have a great night, Demi. I mean it. ;-)
Peaceful dreams Kay.
The great state of Apphouse casts its votes for “Liar.” And we vote early. And often.
Rape is not God’s will. Pregnancy is. /s
