WONKETTE EXCLUSIVE: TODD PALIN MAY BE LOVER OF MANY LADIES


Here’s one line of an e-mail from Wonkette tipster “Little R. Hen,” so secretive: “the first dude has a john edwards problem times ten zillion.” You heard it here first: Todd Plain gets four-thousand-zillion dollar haircuts. THERE ISN’T EVEN THAT MUCH MONEY ON EARTH, and yet.

Todd Palin is Sarah Palin’s Husband
By Risemoon
.... Todd is 44 years old. He eloped with Sarah right after she graduated from college 20 years ago when he was 24. The couple did not realize they needed a witness for a wedding, so they recruited two seniors from a retirement home next to the justice of the peace.

Todd is a world-class snowmobiler. He has won the Iron Dog snowmachine race three times, count ‘em three times. It is a 2,000 mile endurance race in Alaska similar to the Ideterod. We may need to get use to some interesting terminology unique to Alaska! That includes the ethnic term Yup’ik. He is 1/8th part Alaskan native American, although not technically Eskimo.

As a career he has worked the North Slope oil fields as a production engineer. During the summer he is a fisherman near the family’s hometown of Wasilla, Alaska. ....



The first husband’s interests include fly-fishing, coaching hockey and basketball, and helping raise the babies of a busy first lady. ....

2. oh dear Goddess the comments are HILARIOUS!
Edited on Sat Aug-30-08 11:01 AM by GloriaSmith
Some of the responses:

-Never trust a man with the given name Todd. It’s an abbrev. for “Too odd.”
Swearsies.

- He wears orange oil drilling outfits that resemble pant suits.

- Is this a backdoor to the Mormons? I don’t mean an anal thing. I mean . . .
No, I mean something anal, but I can’t put my finger on it. In it.
Eeewww.

- I can’t wait for the season finale when Sarah Palin, distraught over her husband’s four thousand zillionth affair, finds comfort in the arms of her elderly partner in nation-ruining. Enter Cindy, who knew all along that Johnny was going to trade her in for a younger model some day. She divorces him, leaving him with only half of his however many houses. WALNUTS will lie about his affair under oath, but it will not matter because FIVE AND A HALF YEARS!!!

And my favorite:

- Well. I believe the Eskimo has been highly under represented in Republican sex scandals. It’s about time for some parity. That is change I can believe in.

:rofl:

Wonkette readers are a frisky bunch. Me like!

On Edit: No wait, this has to be the best:

- great horny toads! has anyone considered pairing off her children with those of Mittens? 5 AND A HALF Sisters for 5 AND A HALF Brothers! or something like that. Tag and Trig and Fig and Donner and Blitzen oh my

A lot of talk that Todd Palin has his hands a lot more on the Governor’s job than we’d normally expect from a spouse. Were he a wife, we’d probably already be hearing the "Lady McBeth" line trotted out. "The stories started last year when Representative Ralph Samuels told me about going into a meeting, he thought would be private, with Governor Sarah Palin. Much to his surprise, Todd Palin was there and proceeded to sit through the entire meeting. "Other lawmakers have shared similar stories and were shocked at how inappropriate Todd’s presence was at meetings with the governor. Yesterday on the Dan Fagan Show, Representative Jay Ramras mentioned that Todd was working lawmakers offices during the ACES debate."

Todd Palin, Shadow Governor of Alaska (Updated)
by polecat

.... But John Bitney made the fatal employment mistake; he got on the bad side of Todd Palin.

Bitney was dating the ex-wife (or soon-to-be) of one of Todd Palin's friends. Todd Palin allegedly then demanded that Bitney be fired. Shortly thereafter Bitney worked out a deal with the Chief of Staff to transfer to another department, OUT OF THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE.

The story continues:

On July 3, Bitney was in the process of driving his vehicle back to Juneau when he couldn't get his state issued Blackberry to work. When he arrived in Tok he called his office and was told that his Blackberry had been turned off and that his name had been removed from the state employee directory. ....



His call was then transferred into Tibbles who told him the proposal they talked about was a no deal and the governor ordered him fired immediately. John Bitney was never given a reason why he was fired and never given a chance to make a graceful exit.

Read the article. It goes on with email evidence, and the joyous note that Todd Palin cannot get Executive Privilege. ....
