Andrew Sullivan: Hey, Why Is Piper Palin Not In School?!? Did You Say She’s On Summer Break? Oh, Never Mind…

It’s called Google, Sully. You should try using it before hitting the publish button.

Piper Palin As Bodyguard

Is it too outrageous to ask why this little girl is not in school, rather than acting as a media bouncer for her mother on a publicity/campaign tour?

Which leads to this embarrassing update:

Update: because school in Alaska is now out for the summer. My bad.

    How much longer until Andrew’s AIDS dementia complex prevents him from using a keyboard?

    Not soon enough for me.

    I have to say–at least he apologized. I didn’t think journalists of a certain persuasion knew how.

    Actually, sullivan is not a journalist, he just pretends to be one..I would accept an apology from my cat first. I’m not kidding…

    what a dumbass. Piper is smarter that this overpaid fool, and shes only 10.

    An update is not an apology. That would be admittance to jumping to negative conclusions about the 10 year old having previously attacked the then 5 month old Palin.

    PIPER IS ON TO THEM.

    This guy that reported this is a real dumb ass because all he has to do is look at the school calendar where Piper attends school and see that there last day of the year was the 24th of May. Guess he needs to go back to school. Where do these reports go to school, I’ll bet the teachers there are dumb asses. too

    This is just a stark incidence of malicious leftist attacks on the Palin family. They are so desperate to slander that they have no class at all, they leap first and then look.

    Outstanding example of their slimy attempts to slander and smear.

    Rabid dogs should be put in the stocks.

    I thought that “my bad” was at least partially, minutely, somewhat an admission of wrongdoing. My bad.

    Look at Piper’s face. You know she knows all the stuff going on and she’s seriously pissed off. Think Sarah’s a pain in the Leftwing’s asses now? Wait a few more years till this kid grows up.

    “Because school in Alaska is out for the summer.”

    Maybe I’m missing something, but isn’t school out for the summer everywhere in the U.S. right now? It’s not as if Alaska is in the southern hemisphere or something.

    Oh, wait, I forgot: Sullivan doesn’t have kids, does he? Guess that would explain why he didn’t pick up on the end of the school year thingy.

  16. Katherine says:

    Considering the reactions to children (or even the thought of them) by many on the left, (Wonkettes, Rosie and her blood thirsty producer, NOW, etc) what Sullivan was probably thinking was something like, “there’s another one the abortion doctors missed”.

    Of course, after the brouhaha which ensued after Wonkette’s demonstration of undisguised leftist values and civility, he didn’t dare say it. And compelled (actually salivating) to find something, anything, critical of the presence of Palin children, he lost any sense of time and space.

    I now it’s snarky CNN but here’s a cute Piper video of her taking on the press that is infatuated by the oh so irrelevant dynmo Sarah Palin. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBW_s1tbcp8

    Palin is a Dominionist, they home school their kids to protect them from the “Secular Humanists”. by the way there are really only 5000 “Secular Humanists” on earth, most in England.. their quarterly publication subscription is a weapon 1200 members.

    this should worry even you guys. 1/3 of Red States are controlled by them. most of the GOP leadership, 3 supreme court justices. it has been kept a stealth cult, they are getting bolder. they are really more political than religious. very similar to Islam, their “Biblical Law” is basically Sharia Law. they have been seriously influenced by Abraham Vereide, creator of the Christian Mafia, Doug Coe’s C st “Family” has turned them into a Weapon.

    Piper isn’t just a little girl. She’s a one girl security team that has more than once has run interference for her mom. The great part is if the complain about her they will end up looking like a candy-ass.

    @ Crusader
    I had those Dominionistas living under my bed and in my closet when I was a kid. The ones under my bed were the most horrifying because I knew that if my foot or hand somehow hung over the edge of the bed, those radical Christians would grab it and do horrible things to me. Daddy would come in and check under my bed and in my closet to assure me there was nothing there that should not be, but I knew they had some mystical ability to disguise themselves as a coat or a toy and fooled my Dad, but I was the only one on to them. I knew once the light was off, they would be back to get me.

    We have so many REAL threats to deal with. Why don’t you expend your energies looking at them instead of crap generated by the tin foil hat wearers to discredit Christians?

    BTW, I think Piper shoulder checking that reporter was one of the best things I have seen in a long time. For safety sake, I am sure Sarah cautioned her about getting too close though, because it could have been someone who wanted to do more than just ask questions.

    @ohiochili: Whew! Thought I was the only one experiencing those awful Christian bedtrolls. I don’t know why they would be reluctant to expose their children and their impressionable minds to the socialism-loving, revisionist-history teachings of public school brainwashing unless there was something sinister behind it. They must be stopped!

    ohiochili@Same here though at night whenever I had secular humanist wet dreams those Christian bedtrolls would kidnap me from of my bed and drag me off to church but then during the day after awaking from the bedtroll nightmare I was saved by the glorious secular humanists who raped me just show me everything was okay.

    Is there nothing better to do than to look at every little thing they can scoop up about Palin?
    This morning I was watching CBS news here in the NYC area, and they stopped the news to report that Palin had gotten a fact ‘wrong’ about Paul Revere.

    “”He who warned, uh, the … the British that they weren’t gonna be takin’ away our arms, uh, by ringin’ those bells and, um, by makin’ sure that as he’s ridin’ his horse through town to send those warnin’ shots and bells that, uh, we were gonna be secure and we were gonna be free … and we were gonna be armed.”

    Obviously she was overwhelmed by the days events, and told the story a little off, but in essence correct. At the end of the day, he warned everyone that the Brits were on the way and that sent a message to King George that the colonists were going to stand up for themselves. It was probably hot, and she’s been on the go for how long? Give it a rest. She didn’t even tell you about where and when she was going to appear, so why are you hounding HER? She’s not even running at this point!

    Newsflash: There’s a president in the White house who hasn’t submitted a budget, who’s gotten us into an extended obligation in Libya (what happens when Gadaffi goes? What will we owe Libya? Has the even been discussed, or asked? If were going to bomb the dictator, don’t we owe the country something in the way of support when he’s gone, WHAT EXACTLY WILL WE OWE THEM, should he be killed?? HAS ANYONE ASKED??? Where is the money coming from?)

    There is so much that the president isn’t doing, and all the news media can do is obsess over a former Gov, who at this point isn’t running!! It’s beyond pathetic.

  26. xerocky says:
    June 4, 2011 at 11:42 am

    The reason that they obsess over her is exactly two fold: she is an easy way for the obviously liberal media to make the political right look bad…

    and she’s got a nice rack.

    My now grown sons were born and raised in Alaska (North Pole/Fairbanks). And i believe just living there tends to make kids mature earlier than they would in a place where life is really easy and predictable.

    Oh boy, another little Sarah growing up…look at that determined look on her face. Go get ‘em, Piper!

  29. TKRC says:
    June 4, 2011 at 12:14 pm

    @RedheadedTexan,

    Piper is there to kick ass and chew bubblegum… and she’s all out of bubblegum!

    @ xerocky,

    correction: she’s got a REALLY nice rack.

    ;)

    all kidding aside, the Palins (Todd, Sarah, their kids, et. al.) have been subjected to the meanest smear campaign i’ve ever seen over the past 3 years, so i support them in anything they do to tweak the lamestream media.

    Crusader – get your religion over to an appropriate thread.

    This is nothing about god or christians or seculars.
