Sarah Palin and Todd Palin Divorce Rumors Continue

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 22:04:07 +0000

Star magazine is once again reporting that Sarah Palin and Todd Palin are getting closer and closer to divorce, based solely on third party statements that the couple have a troubled marriage. Star reports below:

Sarah Palin’s husband Todd smiled happily and stood lovingly by his wife’s side last year during her vice presidential campaign. But behind the scenes, their marriage was in turmoil — and now they’re on the brink of a shocking divorce!
In the Aug. 24 issue of Star, on sale today, we have world exclusive details about Alaska’s former first couple and their disintegrating union: They’re sleeping apart, arguing non-stop and losing control of their party-loving daughters!

"Sarah and Todd are fighting all the time," Mercede Johnston — sister of Levi Johnston, ex-boyfriend of Sarah’s eldest daughter, Bristol — tells Star in an exclusive interview. "When they do, Todd often ends up sleeping on the couch at their home in Wasilla. Bristol used to tell Levi that her parents would argue and bicker over the littlest things, like who was supposed to take out the trash or wash the dishes."

Levi, the father of Bristol’s 7-month-old son, Tripp, recently told RadarOnline.com that Sarah and Todd have had marital trouble "from day one," and that he believed their escalating problems were the reason behind her mysterious decision to resign as governor of Alaska last month with more than a year left in her term.

His sister Mercede predicts: "If they ended their marriage within the next year, I wouldn’t be surprised at all. It really seems to me their marriage is just a sham for the cameras now!"

Another possibility, an Alaskan insider tells Star, is that with Sarah’s multi-million-dollar book deal in place, "she might even come to some financial agreement for him to stay with her and give the impression of a loving husband, at least through her book tour next year. In that respect, they’d be like the Jon and Kate Gosselin of politics!"

And like the TLC reality stars, Todd and Sarah have their brood of children to worry about — and their worries keep growing with a new family scandal. Star has an eyewitness account of their 15-year-old daughter Willow drinking vodka and smoking pot at a wild house party! "Her eyes were getting more and more glazed as the night went on," says a source.

From what we have seen of the couple they seem solid to us. There are statistics however that say when a woman makes more money, and has a more powerful position than a man, she has a tendency to take the man for granted, and make him feel both unappreciated and worthless, which causes the relationship to break down. Considering the statistics alone, it’s possible there could be trouble brewing in the Palin marriage.

As much as we’d like to say "Leave the Palins alone," the whole family, even Levi, have embraced a public life to make money, so reports about their private life come with the territory. Don’t feel sorry for them if they complain in interviews that give them even more publicity, while their bank account keeps getting fatter. If they really didn’t like the spotlight, they would stay out of it, and retreat to a "private" life.

Sarah Palin and Todd Palin Deny Divorce Rumors

Hollywood Grind — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 02:28:33 +0000

Sarah Palin, former Alaska Governor, is denying two Alaskan bloggers’ reports that she and her husband Todd Palin are divorcing. The bloggers claimed they were splitting after infidelities on both sides. spokeswoman Meg Stapleton posted on Palin’s Facebook page Saturday:

"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 [and] committed to each other and their family."

Palin’s attorney Thomas Van Flein also released a statement slamming the "vicious" rumor, who added Saturday:

"I spoke to Sarah and Todd this morning. They are not getting a divorce."

Everyone is trying to find a scandal behind Sarah’s decision to resign from her position as Alaska state Governor.

David Letterman Insults Sarah Palin 14 Year-old Daughter

Hollywood Grind — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 03:51:16 +0000

On Tuesday’s show, David Letterman joked in his opening monologue that the Alaska Governor Sarah Palin visited Yankee Stadium, sitting in "far, far right field" with Rudy Giuliani. "They had a wonderful time," he continued. "The toughest part of her visit was keeping Eliot Spitzer away from her daughter." Letterman also said that Alex Rodriquez knocked up Palin’s daughter at the game, except the daughter at the game was not 18 year-old Bristol Palin, it was Palin’s 14 year-old daughter.

Todd Palin responded to Letterman’s attack on his family saying:

"Any ’jokes’ about raping my 14-year-old are despicable. Alaskans know it and I believe the rest of the world knows it, too."

Governor Sarah Palin also responded saying:

"Concerning Letterman’s comments about my young daughter (and I doubt he’d ever dare make such comments about anyone else’s daughter): ’Laughter incited by sexually-perverted comments made by a 62-year-old male celebrity aimed at a 14-year-old girl is not only disgusting, but it reminds us some Hollywood/NY entertainers have a long way to go in understanding what the rest of America understands, that acceptance of inappropriate sexual comments about an underage girl, who could be anyone’s daughter, contributes to the atrociously high rate of sexual exploitation of minors by older men who use and abuse others.’"

In the video above Letterman devoted his Top Ten to insulting Sarah Palin, but it was his opening monologue that he used to attack Palin’s 14 year-old daughter. In the video below Letterman, an admitted liberal democrat activist, said the jokes were not about the 14 year-old daughter, but rather about the 18 year-old daughter, even though only the 14 year-old daughter was at the Yankees game with her mother and father. Letterman also did not apologize, but rather defended the attack he labeled as jokes, then he repeated the attacks a second time. Letterman never mentioned Palin’s visit to New York was to raise money for a children’s charity there.

It’s okay for Letterman to attack a politician, but not the politician’s family. Let’s also call it what it is, it was an attack, not a joke. I’m tired of comedians trying to say it was comedy when they directly attack someone. Professional comedians know that is bull, and so does Letterman. I used to be a fan of Letterman, but now I think his hatred for people who don’t agree with him has gotten the best of him, just like the guy who shot the security guard at the holocaust museum in Washington D.C. Someone better keep an eye on Letterman, or he’s liable to shoot someone thinking his gun is microphone. Oh, that last sentence was a joke. *Wink wink*

Sarah Palin Cheating Scandal with Brad Hanson

Hollywood Grind — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 19:16:33 +0000

Sarah Palin is now in the middle of an alleged cheating scandal that involves her husband Todd Palin’s former business partner Brad Hanson. Recently Brad requested to have his divorce records sealed to protect his privacy, but the judge denied that request. The rumor that Sarah had cheated was around at that time, but the divorce records never mentioned Sarah, or cheating at all, so now the National Enquirer got other people to make the cheating claims without any other real evidence at all. The National Enquirer reports:

No less than three members of the man’s family including one by sworn affidavit have claimed that Sarah Palin engaged in an extramarital affair with hus band Todd’s former business partner, Brad Hanson.

These sources have named Hanson as Palin’s secret love, and say their affair nearly wrecked both their marriages.

Hanson owned a snowmobile dealership with Palin’s husband Todd, who immediately dissolved the partnership after he heard stories about the affair, which occurred around 1996, according to the sources. At the time, Palin was mayor of Wasilla.

Palin has vehemently de nied cheating on her hus band, and Hanson insisted to The NATIONAL ENQUIRER that he was never romantically in volved with the 44-year-old Republican vice presiden tial candidate.

However, Hanson family insider, Jim Burdett, has gone on the record and passed a rigorous polygraph test, revealing de tails of the affair to The NATIONAL ENQUIRER in a world exclusive interview.

Burdett is a former brother-in-law of Hanson’s estranged wife Carolyn’s brother, Craig Batton, and still speaks with many family members.

“I’ve known about Brad having had an affair for a long time, but it wasn’t until just recently that I learned his affair was with Sarah Palin,” Burdett told The NATIONAL ENQUIRER.

“Sarah was elected mayor of Wasilla, Brad became a city council member in the nearby town of Palmer, and they started an affair.

“Todd found out about the affair and was so mad he broke up their partnership at the snowmobile dealership,” Burdett claimed.

Another source, who preferred to remain anonymous for fear of repercussions, provided The NATIONAL ENQUIRER with a sworn affidavit attesting to the Palin-Hanson story.

“Todd was away on business a lot and Sarah felt lonely. Brad was a good listener, and Sarah talked to him at length. Eventually, she real ized she was falling in love with him,” one insider divulged.

“When Todd got back from one of his trips, Sarah told him that she had begun to have feelings for Brad.”

The allegations date back to 1996, which is 12 years ago. If any of this is true Sarah, and if it is pertinent to the Presidential election Sarah will admit the affair. Honesty and trust are important. Remember all the affairs Bill Clinton denied and lied about, even while he was President, and how he got sued for sexual harassment, lost, and had to pay almost a million dollars, all while serving two terms as President? With all of Bill’s cheating, a 12 year-old cheating allegation is hardly worth even considering. If the allegation has any merit, it just proves once again that Sarah is just like the rest of us … human.

Sarah Palin and the Alaska Independence Party

Hollywood Grind — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 05:43:28 +0000

Sarah Palin is alleged to have been a member of the Alaska Independence Party (AIP) at one time, which she and the McCain campaign deny. The AIP has tried to put on the ballet a measure for Alaska to secede from the United States, and become it’s own country, but they have never obtained enough signatures to put the measure on a ballet to be voted on by citizens. This isn’t the first group of people in the U.S. to have issues with the way the federal government handles things.

San Francisco, which is only a city in California, known for it’s large population of gays, wanted to become it’s own country after seceding from the U.S. After seceding, San Francisco said the U.S. could then provide it with military protection, even though most people in San Francisco hate the military. The Democratic Representative from San Francisco, Nancy Pelosi, is the first woman Speaker of the House, which means she becomes president if anything happens to the president and vice president. Pelosi could become President of a country that San Francisco doesn’t even want to be a part of.

Sarah is a "former" member of the AIP, and left because she didn’t agree with everything they proposed, like seceding from the U.S., but she still respects their opinion, because she is governor of all of Alaska, not just part of it.

UPDATE: Information that was coming out at the time of this article was false, and originated from liberal media sources. The fact is, Sarah has never been part of the Alaska Independence Party. This lie was published by liberal media sources in an attempt to hurt Sarah Palin. The video above shows Sarah embracing all citizens in Alaska, even the Alaska Independence Party.

The picture below is real, and is of Sarah when she was young. The shirt says "I may be broke but, I’m not flat busted."

The picture below of Sarah holding a gun, and posing in a bikini is not real.

The photo below is also not real, but it looks like something that could happen.

Bloomberg posted a story about Sarah that was supposed to be about her husband Todd pictured below.

The New York Times reported that Todd Palin, Sarah’s husband, was arrested 22 years ago on for DUI, although they fail to mention if he was convicted, which would mean he’s innocent of any crime. Getting arrested doesn’t make a person a criminal, getting convicted in a court of law does. Bloomberg saw the story, and wrote their own (above) saying that Sarah herself was the one who was arrested. They later corrected the error without a retraction, so if you hear Sarah was arrested for DUI, tell that person to check their source again. Bloomberg posted the obituary of Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple, on August 27, even though he isn’t dead. Hopefully the person making all those mistakes at Bloomberg can be reassigned to a more important job like dumping garbage cans in the offices around the building, after they are filled with papers covered with printing errors.

Sarah and her family have really caught the attention of America. This political season is much like it was in the 1800s when common folk ran for office. Today we honor those former politicians with statues, movies, museums, and we even have streets named after them. If Sarah does great things for America, what will we do to remember her?

Bristol Palin Underage Drinking Pics

Hollywood Grind — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 19:08:38 +0000

Alleged pictures of Bristol Palin, who is five months pregnant and 17 years-old, have surfaced showing her drinking alcohol while she is underage. Bristol is the daughter of Sarah Palin, who is John McCain’s vice presidential running mate. It appears Sarah has a teenager in her family, who is a lot like many teenagers in many normal families. This gives women who have troubled teenagers another reason to identify with Sarah, and this gives Sarah credibility when she speaks about dealing with troubled teenager issues. Experience matters to mothers and women in America.

The father of Bristol Palin’s baby has been identified as Levi Johnston (18), pictured below, who has also been called Levi Wallner by other media reports. Levi and Bristol have been dating for about a year in their hometown Wasilla, Alaska. On his MySpace Levi says:

"I’m a f – - -in’ redneck" who likes to snowboard and ride dirt bikes, but I live to play hockey. I like to go camping and hang out with the boys, do some fishing, shoot some s- – - and just f – - -in’ chillin’ I guess."

"Ya f – - – with me I’ll kick your a$$."

On his MySpace Levi says he’s "in a relationship," but also says, "I don’t want kids."

Which means he wasn’t expecting Bristol to get pregnant. Maybe the condom broke, or maybe he forgot to wear one if both Levi and Bristol were drinking at the time. This sounds like so many teenagers I knew growing up.

Bristol may not be the perfect daughter, but because of Bristol, her mother Sarah can relate to average women and mothers across America.

Update: Some readers from Alaska say the girl that is drinking is Sadie Johnston, aka Mercede, Levi’s sister, and not Bristol. As is stated at the start of the article, the pictures were “alleged” to be of Bristol. We have found more pictures that prove the pictures are not of Bristol, but in fact are of Sadie as the readers said. We are happy the truth was revealed by people in Alaska who care about the Palin family as we do. The only picture of Bristol is in picture number 7, where she is on the right, and wearing an Arizona sweatshirt. Thank you to the readers in the great state of Alaska.

Sarah Palin Daughter Bristol Palin is Pregnant at 17

Hollywood Grind — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 18:49:18 +0000

Sarah Palin, the republican Vice Presidential nominee of John McCain, has a 17 year-old daughter, Bristol Palin, who is pregnant. Bristol plans to keep the baby, and marry the father. Sarah herself announced the news, in keeping with her open and honest approach to public life, unlike democratic leaders like John Edwards, and Bill Clinton, who chose to lie to keep their misdeeds a secret. Despite Bill’s lies, he still had to pay out almost $1 million in a sexual harassment lawsuit while he was still president, yet Democrats still love and respect him.

Liberal bloggers today began spreading a false rumor that Sarah faked her down syndrome pregnancy, giving birth in May, to cover up for her pregnant daughter seen in the picture above on the far right. It makes no sense that a 17 year-old would give birth to a down syndrome baby, but it does make sense that a woman over 40 could.

Sarah released the following statement today, while also asking the media to give their daughter, and the baby’s father Levi Johnston, privacy.:

"We have been blessed with five wonderful children who we love with all our heart and mean everything to us."

"Our beautiful daughter Bristol came to us with news that as parents we knew would make her grow up faster than we had ever planned. As Bristol faces the responsibilities of adulthood, she knows she has our unconditional love and support."

"Bristol and the young man she will marry are going to realize very quickly the difficulties of raising a child, which is why they will have the love and support of our entire family. We ask the media, respect our daughter and Levi’s privacy as has always been the tradition of children of candidates."

There are a lot of questions about Bristol, like if she has finished high school yet, and if she sleeps around. Judging from reader response to Jamie Lynn Spears getting pregnant at 16 years-old, most people don’t approve of pregnancy under the age of 18, but still encourage parents to support those children for the sake of the baby. Thankfully, Bristol fell comfortable enough to tell her parents the truth, and took responsibility for her actions. Sarah has not made the same mistake as her daughter, so she tried to set a good example, unfortunately, despite trying to lead by example, all families make mistakes. The important thing is to be there for each other when mistakes happen, which is what the Palin family is doing. That’s a good republican family.

As the rumors and criticism from liberal Democrats are voiced from today on, remember that those same Democrats, and even Barack Obama himself, says that Michelle Obama, and other family members should be "off limits" in a political campaign, and that Obama should not be judged by his association with criminals, America hating racists, and terrorists. Those same Democrats won’t even think twice about going after a pregnant 17 year-old girl, who needs support more than she needs a nervous breakdown from public criticism.

John McCain was aware that Bristol was 17 and pregnant when he chose her mother Sarah to be his vice president. Democrats sling harsh criticism at Republicans who make mistakes, which is the price they pay for trying to lead by example, but the truth is no one is perfect, and Republicans like McCain know that fact. Even Dick Cheney knows no one is perfect. Cheney’s daughter is a lesbian who not only lives with her partner, but they have a baby they are now raising.

The fact is Sarah is just like most good mothers, and women, in America. She tries her best, but makes mistakes like the rest of us. One fact remains however, she has accomplished a lot as governor of Alaska that others said could not be done, and she isn’t bragging about it. Sarah deserves a lot of credit and respect for how she conducts herself in politics, and in her personal life. I am hopeful that McCain and Palin are elected on November 4, so that honesty and integrity can once again lead this country to a better future.

Sarah Palin Early Sportscaster Days

Hollywood Grind — Sun, 31 Aug 2008 18:54:45 +0000

Sarah Palin, was a sportscaster for KTUU-TV in Anchorage, Alaska back in 1988 (video below) when she was known as Sarah Heath, before she married an oil company production operator Todd Palin.

Here are five more details about Sarah, who is John McCain’s VP pick, you may not already know:

Her youngest son has Down syndrome. When Palin announced to friends after 4-month-old Trig’s birth in April that he had been diagnosed with Down syndrome, she wrote them a private e-mail she said: "This new person in your life can help everyone put things in perspective and bind us together, and get everyone focused on what really matters … Those who love him will think less about self and focus less on what the world tells [us] is ’normal’ or ’perfect.’ "
She has a son serving in the Army. Palin’s son Track, 19, is expected to be deployed to Iraq this fall. "He’s looking forward to it and we’re proud of him," Palin’s husband, Todd, said. "He’s grown up a lot in the past year." Says Palin: "I’m proud of him but I worry."
Her husband Todd is part Eskimo. Together 20 years, Todd, also 44, and Sarah "always wanted enough [kids] for a basketball team," she says. Todd is part Yupik Eskimo and helps run a family commercial fishing operation in addition to a fulltime job as an oil company production operator. As a hobby, he races snowmobiles. He caught Sarah’s eye in high school and they married in 1988. "He was the best basketball player I’d ever seen," she says.
She’s a former beauty queen. The 1987 University of Idaho graduate says: "I did the beauty pageants to earn money for college." Adding in a Vogue interview, "They made us line up in bathing suits and turn our backs so the male judges could look at our butts. I couldn’t believe it." The former Miss Wasilla, however, prefers basketball and hunting and fishing to bathing suit and evening gown contests. "I love the outdoors."
She has a great sense of style. Palin may be comfortable in a fisherman’s vest or hunting fatigues, but on the job as governor she wears Kazuo Kawasaki designer glasses and black Franco Sarto boots.

… and Sarah is an amazing woman who represents a great example for women in America.

John McCain Picks Sarah Palin as his Vice Presidential Running Mate

Hollywood Grind — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 15:17:06 +0000

John McCain (72) has announced today that Alaska Governor Sarah Palin (44) is his vice presidential running mate on the eve of the Republican National Convention. Palin is a self-styled gun packing hockey playing mother of five children, and political reformer, who has been governor of her state less than two years.

McCain picked Palin in an attempt to appeal to the disenfranchised Hillary Clinton supporters, and women who make up the majority of voters in the United States. If McCain is elected President, Palin will be the first woman Vice President, making history.

Palin is a brilliant pick. Unlike the arrogant first woman Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi who wanted a jet as big as Air Force One to fly around and promote her book, Palin saved her state hundreds of thousands of dollars by getting rid of the private governor jet to fly commercial airlines, drives herself around without security staff, and she has reformed Alaska’s state government. She’s humble, hard working, and honest, and unlike Obama, Palin has executive experience as a state governor. Palin also has a nearly 90% approval rate by voters in her state.
