Piper was having pizza with the Donald the other day, now she can always ask him for a reference. Imagine the conversations she has been privy to.

It's not like the Palins have shielded their kids from what the press have been doing to Sarah.<br /><br />And as for him not knowing about school not being in session... why should he? It's not like he's ever been a parent. Of course, as an alleged journalist, he could be expected to do some research before making his snide comments...<br /><br />You know, if Sully truly cared so much about the Palin kids and their delicate sensibilities, maybe he'd stop spreading lies about their mom at the drop of a hat.

Mom, of course, is dressed prim and proper. But Piper is dressed like a kid on vacation. And apparently her mother doesn't care. Good for her. She's letting Piper tag along, and be herself, rather than dress her out in a way that the media might like, but which Piper wouldn't. I preach weddings and funerals, and I've noticed that a lot of common folk these days are a lot less likely to dress up for such occasions. It seems like they are a lot more laid back and less hung up on "bourgeois appearances" than are the politicians.Basilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08963674867780799073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-68037015526649636992011-06-03T12:28:17.356-04:002011-06-03T12:28:17.356-04:00I remember when Palin debuted at the Republican co...I remember when Palin debuted at the Republican convention. At one of the blogs I frequent, a self-professed "intelligent" liberal commenter predicted that Palin would lose the "family values" vote because baby Trig was on stage so late at night.<br /><br />One of the conservative moms chimed in that babies are pretty much on their own time zone.<br /><br />I chimed in that the speech was in Minnesota, which is Central Standard Time (where we are located). As I recall, she spoke at 9:30, which meant that Alaska time was 6:30.<br /><br />Other commenters said I "owned" that thread.alan markushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04376679777650939602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-68277374835526432432011-06-03T11:00:33.177-04:002011-06-03T11:00:33.177-04:00Who'd have thought that an out of the closet, ...Who'd have thought that an out of the closet, internet sex trolling, expat from Britain (a country that currently obeys Sharia law almost as much as Jordan) would be sooooo concerned with someone's vagina and those created therefrom.<br /><br />We need a new label as he's not just a concern troll, he's a vagina-oriented concern troll.<br /><br />Never hear him worry too much about Todd (probably cause he gets the shivers thinking about Todd confronting him over a story) or Levi 'I've almost reached my goal of becoming lower than a gay porn fluffer' Johnston when he was first acting up then acting out then disappeared.
