Sarah Palin lies again: claims she drove from Alaska to Rodeo Drive to watch Bristle dance.

[Bluebear]

Speaking to an quivering teabagger audience in Montgomery, Alabama, Sarah Palin said this:

"I tell Bristol, I am texting her and say 'Bristol'...and I wasn't kidding, I thought that this was a practical thing to do...'How about if Todd and I we load up all the kids in our motorhome and drive down, park on Rodeo Drive and we come to see you.' And I honestly didn't think that it was an unusual thing to suggest, that's what you do, a road trip. (...) But anyway, that's what we did, though, we parked a little bit further away from Rodeo Drive, and we got to watch Bristol."

Palingates did some fact-checking, noting that the 3375-mile drive from Wasilla to Los Angeles would take forever. And unless the Palin motorhome has a jet engine, there's no way she could have been in Los Angeles a mere two days after being photographed at her home in Alaska. Aaaand there's the pesky little fact of being seen on an Alaska Airlines flight to from Portland to Los Angeles on the day before the show. Oops!

1. 'Bristle'... LOL! n/t

9. I saw that too...thought that maybe Sarah gave her daughter the brush-off n/t

OK...bad pun...

2. Complete with a map, LOL

Averaging 60 MPH with NO stopping (which I doubt that Canada would have allowed), it would have taken at least 56 hours!

However, let's be fair--she didn't specifically say she ended up Bristol dance ON TELEVSION...

:rofl:

11. "It must've flew!" corky st. clair

[rbixby]

36. You definitely can't average 60mph on that trip either

Its mountainous, windy, and the Alcan highway is full of frost heaves. If you tried going 60 over those, you'd shake your car to pieces within 50 miles.

3. she lies like most people breathe

[emulatorloo]

6. It is pretty pathological. She's obsessed with making up stories about herself.

[spanone]

8. the tragedy is that she's been rewarded with millions of dollars

[rocktivity]

10. It doesn't get any more pathalogical than this

25. Kicking for your post. I think this describes most of the Republican/Teabag ideiologues

out there.

[Tikki]

5. She must spend a great deal of every day....

writing the screen play of her life in her head and out her mouth.

13. It's more like she's pulling it out of her ass.

[Botany]

7. This is why she will never talk to the press or a reporter ...... facts are icky

but she did fly on a private jet as she pretended to ride a bus to promote a book
that she didn't write.

[VMI Dem]

12. Meh. She misspoke.

[rocktivity]

14. The woman who said that gays make "lifestyle choices" misspoke.

She used the wrong words. Palin consistently uses the wrong reality.

22. lol, good point.

:D

[Ian David]

15. She drove on her hawzbyind Tyawhd's snowmachine. n/t

[classof56]

16. Sarahy needs to read up on what her Bible says about lying...

One verse I submit for her consideration, Revelation 21:8: "...all liars...will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur..."

Aside from that, she was in Portland? 'Way too close to suit me, even with a mountain range between us!

[Stevenmarc]

17. So they loaded up the truck and moved to Beverly.... Hills, that is, Swimmin pools, movie stars.

[WhollyHeretic]

18. They posted some comments from a Palin fan site. I'm just speechless

[Ghost in the Machine]

28. OMFG! It's people like "beaverton" who keep this Country in the mess it's in..

The stupid must really burn...

How can these ignorant fucks twist their brains so damned hard and not kill themselves? I don't get it at all...

[Raschel]

30. They like to pretend that they know her intimately. It's like watching a soap opera.

It helps when Palin portrays the 'I'm just like you' persona. This helps them to imagine that they DO know her, they are her neighbor, her friend.

What idiots.

[malaise]

37. Ah well it's Lady Blah Blah Blah

Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah! She's one sick fugg :puke:

[Bluebear]

31. "he got the stamina" - wow.

[cbdo2007]

19. On a side note - DAMN that would be a gorgeous drive!

No, not because of Palin but the Northwest and Canada and stuff!! No one woudl want to rush that trip.

[hunter]

20. Maybe it was Dick Cheney's motorhome in a C-17...

Cheney has Air Stream Motor Home installed in Plane for Iraq Visit (December 2005)

21. It's a 2 day, 17 hour trip. That's 65 hours of driving

Enough time to drive from NY to LA and back. I doubt she did that.

[Dappleganger]

23. The Alaskan Transporter strikes again! nt

[11 Bravo]

24. By "we parked a little bit further away from Rodeo Dr." she meant the fucking Portland Airport.

[intaglio]

26. 56 hours??

Plus refueling, plus eating and drinking then there is the drive in the city. 72 hours at least with both Todd and Sarah looking like sh1t at the end.

[rocktivity]

35. Plus however long it takes to cross the U.S. Candian borders

Which she would have had to do twice.

On a bus trip to Montreal, I recall that it took more than your normal toll booth stop.

27. Still livin' la vida maverick.

[Lucy Goosey]

29. Why does she lie about stuff that is this inconsequential?

I don't understand her. I really don't.

[Saphire]

32. My MIL is one of those people. Lies about all kinds of small things.

[Bluebear]

33. She needs to paint the folksy image of parking her Winnebago on Rodeo Drive

to make her sound "like you" (read: the average Teabagger)

[cbdo2007]

34. Because then people call her out on it and she can say it's the Media attacking her again.

It plays right into her MO.

[Ramulux]

38. I wonder what her response to this would be

She is pretty much busted fabricating a story. Not that that's the worst thing ever, but its definitely not good. There really isn't any way to spin this.
