Bristol Palin's testimony to nowhere...The Mudflats

[Blue_In_AK]

This is just sad. http://www.themudflats.net/2010/04/21/bristol-palins-testimony-to-nowhere/

<snip>

Bristol it seems, told the sad sad story of how she didn’t have a cell phone for weeks after her number was compromised via published email and her phone was confiscated by the authorities. It is really possible that nobody thought to get the pregnant 17-year old Bristol a new emergency phone to use in the interim, with her parents gone and no land line at the house?

When asked to testify about the text messages and voice messages left on he phone, she had this to say:

“There was one that really scared me,” Bristol Palin testified in federal court. She said she was concerned when a bunch of boys called, claiming they were at her front door and needed to be let in.

“We live in the middle of nowhere in Alaska … in the middle of the woods,” Palin said.

It is never OK, to hack into someone’s private emails, and it is never OK to make those public, and certainly nobody who engages in such behavior is to be defended. However…

“In the middle of nowhere in Alaska… in the middle of the woods”? Last time I checked, the Palin’s growing compound in Wasilla was a stone’s throw away from a major highway on one side, and the Best Western Lake Lucille on another side. The zoning is designed to maximize the number of lots around the lake, so plenty of neighbors. And didn’t her mom keep talking over and over about how Wasilla was a thriving city, and the fastest growing community in Alaska?

Not to be nit-picky, but is a federal trial under oath on the witness stand really the place for…. dramatic exaggeration?

1. I always like your Alaskan updates on these Grifters

Bristol was coached of course by the lawyers but it sounds really lame.

6. It's one thing being a pawn, it's another matter altogether when you profit from it.

originally, I thought bristol cream was nothing more than failins plaything excuse to use as a "get out of jail free" card for any inconvenient issues that popped up.

But as time wore on, briston, who might have been actually a reasonably normal person at one time, is not the new failin quitter in training.

She saw what sells as news and how to work it for her own benefit. She comes across as a gentler version of her insane control freak mommy dearest, but don't let that fool you, she appears to be a very quick learner.

7. How was it compromised when both the Heath's phone and Todd and Sarah Palin are both listed in the

whitepages?

What BS...are they not asking for actual copies of the email? or just going by hearsay..
