Mother of Palin's boyfriend arrest

[SWTXBelle]

FWIW - I thought the Obama/Ayers thing was really not an issue. Given the circumstances of their association, I didn't see it as a problem. However, the fact is that Obama chose to work with Ayers. I don't know that Sarah Palin chose this family for Bristol - I have a feeling if she had her druthers the whole family would have no association with her whatsoever.

I also thought any past drug use by Obama (or Bush, come to that) is also not a problem - everyone makes mistakes, and what matters most is what you learn from them.

I don't think whatever her daughter's in-law's legal problems (and she is innocent until proven guilty, btw) are really reflect on Sarah Palin. Now, if Obama were to want to appoint Ayers to an important position, or if Palin tried to get a job for the in-law, then it would be a problem. I know I wouldn't want to be judged by some of my in-laws!

There is no DIL involved.

Agreed.
By daughter in law I think she meant, her Palin's daughter's possible in laws.

And while I know the tread has gone over this, but I don't see how this has to do with Sarah Palin. It wasn't as if Palin chose her daughter's boyfriend. In fact, I doubt she had much input in the matter.

See - "daughter's" possesive, "in-law's " possesive.
The in-law belonging to the daughter.

Actually in the political world, that kind of thing does reflect...whether it should or not. It really doesn't matter if they are trying to bring the in-law or offending party into the administration in a meaningful way. I think the general attitude is that politicians are guilty by association.

Yea I agree that the general attitude is 'guilty by association'.

As for the arrest, anybody know what drugs it was? Herd that Alaska is the Crystal Meth capital of the US.

I can't find anything that will say what drugs she is accused of dealing with.

And I agree that I had the same feeling that the 'wedding' was purely a PR move.

'Yea, my daughter is preggers, but she's gonna marry him, so that makes it OK!"

You know just because you delete a post when you're blatantly wrong and hypocritical doesn't mean that someone else didn't quote that post so that we can all see it. Thanks alphagamzetagam!

Ummm...ok and...?

That was the reason WHY I deleted the post.


pssst.....I deleted it AFTER she called it out or maybe you didn't note that in your critical assessment of my wrongness. If I had deleted it before she quoted it, then perhaps she wouldn't have been able to do so now would she, hmmm?


I can't believe you wasted all that breath to point out that I deleted my post after the fact.

Anything else?

Wanna talk to the topic of the thread itself ?

No?

Happy Holidays!

Is that irrelevant enough for you, DS? Teach me how to make stupid, unrelated posts.
