(seriously)

...snip...

But RealClearPolitics spoke with a source close to the Palin family, who wanted to provide their version of the events in question.

...snip...

According to previously published eyewitness reports, the fracas began when Track Palin, the former governor’s adult son, confronted a former boyfriend of his 20-year-old sister, Willow.

But according to the Palin family’s version of events, the instigator was actually the former boyfriend.

The initial tussle occurred, the source said, after the young man in question “tried to get in” to the Hummer limousine after he’d engaged in some unspecified “questionable behavior.”

So, the "it never happened" defense isn't playing so well?

2. Wait....when is the "Cops" season premiere?

I'd think next to gettin' picked to do some vice presidentin', appearing on "Cops" would be a Palin's biggest accomplishment.

8. Seeing her on "Lock Up" would even be better.

Oh and I want to see Bush/Cheney et al on "Lock Up" too.

3. I shudder to think ...

This bunch could have been a heartbeat away from being our nation's First Family.


McCain ... may you burn in hell.

4. They named their corporation "Redneck" in French--and

got it wrong.

They're secessionists--oh, wait, only Todd

That about sums them up.

All her grifting and casting out of demons and shooting from helicopters is just icing on the turd.

[enough]

5. I'm convinced the whole thing was done on purpose, to rev up their media presence.

Next step, a reality show.

7. That might work...

...each week there would be a fight recreation from a different witness' viewpoint.

6. Responsible and Palin in the same sentence?

9. An unnamed source.

If the Palin family is afraid to go on record, the story might have some legs yet.
