I'm waiting to hear the wackos say that her Down's baby is a result of an affair, and it's God's punishment for having done so.

I suspect, before this is done and over with, various wackos will propose every possible theory including space aliens and a virgin birth.

The facts or proof be damned, when a fertile imagination will suffice. And yes God is PO'd, and will come after you next. Repent all you sinners. You can only save your soul by buying the National Inquirer or making large donations to the televangelist of your choice.

Following our John Edwards' exclusives, our political reporting has obviously proven to be more detail-oriented than the McCain campaign's vetting process.

LMFAO!

Seriously, The National Enquirer got lucky with Edwards. However, as much as I would get a kick out the story if this were true, I'm not holding my breath.

I think it was Rush that said that these stories are more often true than not

Did he say that before or after the Enquirer outed his fat ass for doctor shopping and illegally purchasing prescription painkillers?

Well if the motion was denied, someone needs to be filing a FOIA request.

FOIA is the feds only. Not some county divorce papers.

The federal FOIA applies to federal agencies, but every state has its own FOIA law. I don't know what Alaska's is or if divorce papers are covered.

IDK either, but we can be sure that the public is able to access them or the motion for supression wouldn't have been filed.

No matter, the NE could just ask the guy's ex-wife.

I'd also been wondering why PJ hasn't been all over this, championing his favorite Investigative Journalists.

It doesn't fit into his theory of the liberal MSM.
 
Scott Richter's Motion to Seal was denied. His divorce records remain open to the public. The Smoking Gun has reviewed the entire file.

The Smoking Gun found:

. . . that the Palins are only mentioned in Richter's sealing request. According to the filing, Richter wanted the documents deemed confidential in a bid to cloak details about his home, workplace, and phone numbers because "reporters and news agencies" were using that information to contact him. Richter, a 39-year-old contractor, noted that he is "friends and land owners in a remote cabin" with the Palins and, as a result, journalists were intruding on the "cabin life and private life" of him and his 11-year-old son. The petition to dissolve the marriage was filed jointly last July by Richter and his ex-wife, who were not represented by lawyers. A judge granted the dissolution less than two months after the couple filed to end their marriage. (2 pages)

Desperate much?

Of course, if Sarah Palin ever actually had an affair and wanted to keep it out of the mainstream media, all she'd have to do is leak that she had the affair with John Edwards. That would guarantee it would never be reported.

The only thing TSG reviewed was the request form submitted to mark the records confidential.

Good try.

I'm sorry, but I have to give you an "F" for reading comprehension. If you go to the link you will see where I cut the quote:

Nice to see al the people waiting for me to reply on this subject.

I made my comments back on page 2 or 3.

I just wonder why the same media that ignored the Enquirer story on Edwards for 10 months jumped all over this story.

Would you mind pointing out the MSM that's jumping all over this alleged Palin affair?

Nah, she's one of them (fundy wackos). When you're a wacko all your sins are forgiven. In wacko-land only non-wackos go to hell.

You know why they are jumping on it now. Each media member dreams of being the one to take down palin to save Obama's ass. That is why she can not do interviews with the general press. Every member will be hostile trying to get her to make a gaffe to help Obama. This witch hunt is all about helping Obama win this election.

LOL that is pathetic if true. How would she handle being president if she can't handle hostile journalists?
 
This made me laugh - Editorial:

The Sarah Palin Affair and the Secret Baby

There have been a lot of investigations in the media this past week which have tried to delve into Sarah Palin's background.

This online journal for one will not be prying into the salacious aspects of these stories.

We will not print details of the sordid, lascivious affair the Alaskan governor and Republican vice-presidential nominee had with her husband's business associate.

We will not stoop to reporting on the mysterious circumstances surrounding the birth of her fifth baby: ie, why nobody seemed to know in Alaska and why there are no medical records of the birth.

What's more, we will never descend to writing stories about Palin's well-documented years as a high-class Anchorage hooker, her known ties to the Colombian drug mob and her proven abduction by aliens.

We are above all that.

Does Obama go on the hannity show? Every MSM member would be as hostile to her as hannity would to Obama. When Obama goes on hannity we can talk about her doing interviews with the Obama/Pelosi attack machine.
