Palin’s Episode of ‘Lost’ – Limo Now Under Bus
I thought about this last night. And then I thought about it over breakfast. I hadn’t planned on saying anything but it just kept bugging me. I kept hearing that little voice that said, “Blog me! Blog me!” Sometimes the muse cannot be denied. So, here we go.
Sarah Palin’s limo driver got lost for over an hour on the way from JFK airport to Belmont Park. That’s why she had no time to change her clothes from the white t-shirt, capri pant, baseball cap ensemble to something more appropriate for the “much more formal than that” Belmont Stakes.
First, a limo driver in New York getting lost? Don’t they know the place like the back of their hand (or their palm?) And don’t they have those little gizmos that tell them exactly where to go? And wouldn’t you think that if you’re a VIP limo company sending someone to pick up Sarah Palin you’re going to send a veteran professional and not some newbie who has no idea where he’s going?
And then I started dusting off the New York Metropolitan Area geography section of my brain, located just above the left parietal lobe and…. hey, wait a minute. Belmont Park is actually pretty close to JFK. Really close, if I recall. Fortunately Mapquest takes over where my slightly fuzzy memory left off.
Here is the route:
A is JFK, and B is Belmont Park and Raceway. That’s 8.54 miles for those of you who are curious.
Now, I wasn’t there, but it seems to me that there’s a limo driver out there somewhere who is being accused in the national media of getting lost for more than an hour on an 8 mile trip with Sarah Palin in the car. And it seems to me that it’s possible, just possible that the limo driver got thrown under the bus (how’s that for poetry?) in one of those offhanded seemed-convenient-at-the-time fibs that so easily rolls off the tongue of the ex-half-governor.
And it also seems to me that a more likely explanation of why she showed up inappropriately dressed is simply that she’s… inappropriate. And that she didn’t bother to check first to see what the event was all about. In Alaska, if a sporting event is happening outside, that’s what you wear. Basically, in the 49th State, every day is Casual Friday. But now, some poor guy reading the paper can try to figure out how he just showed up to work one day and ended up joining the long line of unwitting victims that end up in Sarah Palin’s bone pile. I hope he talks.
Alright… I hadn’t intended on posting this, but now that it’s unstuck from my craw, I’m off to attend to other business at Mudflats Central today. Do go check the Oyster Roundup I posted a couple minutes ago, which I just unceremoniously ran over with this one. (There’s probably something about oysters under the bus… I’ll leave you to that one.)
When HASN’T Palin been lost?
Lost on the outside, lost on the inside, even more poetic.
Do we have a picture of her inappropriate outfit? This story needs a visual.
Here they are!
http://www.daylife.com/topic/Sarah_Palin/photos
And yes, you are seeing what you think you’re seeing. And no, you’re not seeing double.
Cute black bra under thin white T-shirt. Not appropriate for a Presidential wannabe, is it? Stay classy, Sarah, stay ever so classy.
That photo will come back to haunt her.
As a Latina, that is a move we get called on. Not that I have tried. Perhaps not a good AZ move. Just sayin’
Yowzeee.
Someone’s even more plastic now than she used to be.
Nothing subtle about Sarah and her girls.
I had only seen the one photo, but the ones that clearly show a black bra under the thin white shirt – yuk. I didn’t like that look when the teens were wearing it quite a few years back. It’s even worse on someone Palin’s age.
I did notice in the one photo, though, that there is some guy in a very casual shirt and baggy shorts. Of course, that’s probably not where the Palins were sitting. I’ve no idea how that all works. I just know she doesn’t look appropriate for any public place.
That look is known in the fashion industry as “Garage Sale Couture”
I’m not one to offer informed opinion on appropriate dress customs, but I know “skank” is never in style.
I’m wondering when we get a shot of her tramp stamp.
I mean, she’s gotta have one, right?
Did she get a boob job? Or are they fake blow ups? She just wanted people to look at her with new boobies. Funny Now I think she is preparing to run in 2012. She has to get that lust vote. She can’t use her brain when you don’t have one.
I am absolutely with you on this one, AKM. My BS antennae went into overdrive when I read the poor little lost story. Yes, she had no idea how to dress for the Belmont. Sport of Kings, Sarah.
Driver under the bus, and a big snub to the hostess, Mrs Whitney. But I’m sure Mrs. Whitney could give a rat’s ass. to palin.
I am meeting fawnskin in the next few weeks. She knows Mrs Whitney. I can’t wait to get the low down. Alas, my lips will be sealed!
Double darn to the sealed lips! Oh well, I guess that it’s better that you be a good friend who can be trusted….
I am cannot fathom Mrs Whitney’s involvement with the Palins. i thought better of her than that. amazing.
Right on!
Glad you posted this! Sarah probably didn’t give any thought to the consequences as to what would happen to the driver of the limo. To her, he is just an underling, a servant, one of the little people God did not call for High Office to Save the World, so what happens to him is not important to her. Just like she stiffed the hair stylist, she will do whatever it takes to save her face (sorry Sarah, you missed that train).
She simply does not care about working people. She does not care about her kids. She does not care for anyone but herself. I’ve tried to think charitable thoughts about this woman, but every time I get to a neutral feeling, she pops up and pops me on my nose with an outrageously insensitive, uninformed, selfish act or rant. Then I get steamed up again. How can she say things like this without thinking about whether or not the limo driver might get fired or the reputation of the limo service might be damaged?
I wish she would go far, far away. Perhaps if her chest gets any larger (see the photo of her and Todd at the raceway), she just might be able to float away in a nice breeze. Where has she been hiding those? Oh, well, it’s nearing time to declare for the Presidential race. Perhaps she felt she needed a little (lot) something-something to boost her self-confidence.
Didn’t $P’s ghost writer say she agreed to the Couric interview because Katie’s self esteem was low?
Please put an end to this lying fraud’s time in the public arena. The only thing I want to see her wear is an orange jump suit. In jail. With or without the fake boobs.
Going Hollywood
The implants were inevitable once granny took a job at Pox!

I found a great new facebook page
http://newsfeed.time.com/2010/06/07/facebook-group-plug-the-bp-oil-spill-with-sarah-palin/
Mr. Limo Driver will hopefully be speaking up shortly.
I certainly hope so. By the way, blow up boobs, sure does not appear concerned about her peeping neighbor looking in little Piper’s window. Does not appear to be the grizzley bear protecting her cubs from the peeper. Nah, grandma has a new set of headlights, and what better place to show them off. That old peeper is old news. I want to show what the neocons bought for me this week. All those fancy ladies did not make the news, but the headlights did. As previously mentioned, skank is never in fashion, especially grandma skank dressed in teen-age clothes.
$p got lost once in Tucson, when she and John McCain gave a show at the Pima County fairgrounds for the Teabaggers. IIRC, she/they were an hour and a half late, even though the plane was noted as landing on time. Tucson Int’l is only 10 miles from the fairgrounds, and it’s nearly all interstate. Same ol, same ol.
Oh, and geez, nothing like looking like trailer trash at the Belmont. If you want to be taken seriously, dress seriously. Oy vey.
Think maybe Sarah was giving the directions the same way she gives endorsements – wrong one, wrong turn, all the time.
My thoughts exactly. I am very familiar with the route, (even attended a Belmont Classic) and there are Belmont signs miles away. I wondered how the heck it was possible.
My thought is even if it were possible for the driver to get lost, which of course it wasn’t, how long does it take to change clothes? Five minutes max? If she wanted an excuse for dressing like that, arriving late is the poorest possible. How about losing her luggage? Anything else. So that leaves the only possible reason: as someone put it, the “headlights”. Thank you for that one.
How can you lose luggage on a private jet??? LOL
Ha ha. She used the lost luggage excuse just a few weeks ago!
Well, that limo driver probably isn’t too happy about the criticism of his job, and he will most definitely tell the truth to some people (employer, family, friends). The truth about Sarah’s lying and lack of taking responsibility will get around.
Her people knew. She had bodyguards. You think the bodyguards would let her get “lost” and all that? Don’t think so. I also know her people had to have gotten a packet with all that info in it, including dress suggestions/writteninstone. No way she is telling the truth.
Nope, she just wanted to flaunt her new “pac rack”, and thanks to whoever said that, and be all mavericky.
Disgusting.
omg….”pac rack”…..hahahahahaha!!!
I totally agree, jmzmum. At that event there were very pretty ladies dressed in pretty clothes and she was so jealous, she wanted to take the attention off of them and put it on her. Sure worked, didn’t it?
Let’s cut to the chase. Sarah got new t*ts and as Jimzmum says, she wanted to show them off.
Also too, as Forty Watt said on the forum…..there is a titscrepancy there.
http://www.themudflats.net/forum/index.php/topic,9346.msg112845/topicseen.html#new
Palingates has comparison photos of the “headlights” up. Quite the difference. How stooooopid is she to think she can flaunt something that hasn’t existed (except in pea size) before. Oh wait…..
Another “pants on fire” moment for the quitter! Lol! AKM, your post made me literally laugh out loud.
I think they were late because they missed their first flight. Got held up by security screeners trying to figure out what was in her bra.
ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You weren’t the only one!!
Maybe whatever it was set the metal detector off. Batteries?
Jello.
You can’t bring that much gel on board.
True that.
Classic. Just Classic.
PS, I’ve used the Oyster Round up as an open thread for today, because one wasn’t labeled. Was that ok?
Ah! Yes, that’s fine. Shannyn put up the open thread last night which was the BP sign. It was her maiden voyage into open thread-dom. I will go label it.
Trash is what trash does and $arah is nothing but trash. Only a poorly bred dunce without access to Google would show up at one of the Triple Crown races looking like she’s heading out for an evening of line dancing to Toby Keith songs.
She’s also dressing inappropriately for any middle-aged woman, thrusting her jugs into that tight little T-shirt, much less someone who wants to be taken seriously on the national political stage.
She’s one hot mess.
Alaskans, please, can you keep her home, where she can frolic in her “swimmin’ hole” in peace? God, I am tired of her.
Mmmmm, so my grandmother’s money went to buy tits for Sarah?
That’s just offensive on so many levels.
After the limo driver tells all, the 1/2 wit 1/2 governor will just bat her eyes and say that she was joking and that she loves the hired help like they were family. And it will come to pass.
Hi all. I haven’t commented in eons (or should that be ions
) but have been loyally lurking.
There’s something else that strikes me as nonsensical about her excuse: If she was intending to stop at their hotel first, to change into appropriate clothes before Belmont Park, why didn’t she say the driver got lost on the way to their hotel? Still unlikely but…. Oh, details, details to take care of when one lies.
Good catch!
Sarah has this wonderful habit of acting or speaking first without thinking about how it looks or sounds. She flew off the handle, accusing her new neighbor of spying in a second story bedroom when the photographs clearly show that he can’t do, no matter if he stands on tip toes. Sarah has an excuse for everything, and it is always someone else’s fault. A limo driver with GPS does not get lost.
Sarah wanted the attention that her new look generated. She got people talking about her (instead of Rush Limbaugh who got married this weekend. Was Sarah on the guest list?) Sarah has shown disregard for a what most people would call a dress code, wearing a short short skirt and sandals when she sits on the stage for a memorial service. She brought Piper to a funeral which was inappropriate.
Sarah’s new look really does call out for men to look at her. This is laughable because she just accused her neighbor of spying on her when she would be mowing the lawn in skimpy attire. Oooh that Sarah, what a tease! What she really was saying to McGinniss was please notice me! Sarah already wrote one chapter for Joe’s book about how she can incite hatred among her followers. Now, she is writing the chapter about how she uses and enhances her looks where a serious political candidate or commentator who work on enhancing their knowledge of history and politics.
Rush got married? I didn’t think there was a female on the planet that desperate or that crazy. Well, life certainly is interesting. Some women will do anything for love or money.
Being catty here: I suspect the latter.
My God, the woman is taking her life in her hands with all that weight hovering over her at bedtime. No amount of money would be worth it. Does this mean he won’t be traveling out of the country with other people’s enhancement (the program won’t let me use the V word) prescriptions anymore?
Sorry, couldn’t resist.
Here’s the People mag story on the nuptials — to include names of some of the guests [h/t HuffPo]: http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20391620,00.html
One has to wonder is someone’s nose was put way out of joint because they weren’t invited to the wedding? Might that be one of the reasons for the ‘show’ at Belmont…a ‘show’ that’d be sure deflect attention from Limp and his bride and direct it to Missy Quitty, instead? beth.
Very good catch on the Limbaugh guest list. One has to wonder. . .
Fourth wife…. I’m betting on the money.
And here is the link from the Belmont Park itself regarding dress code. She had no excuse not to know what to wear.
http://www.belmont-stakes.info/belmontpark.php
And, wouldn’t they have had their clothing with them since they had just come in to the airport? And couldn’t they have changed in the limo?? I’ve done my share of changing in cars…it can be done!
And if not in the back of the limo, couldn’t they have taken their change of clothes into a restroom somewhere? Anywhere? I’m sure the limo driver, who likely was not lost, could have found them some place to change. Actually, why didn’t they just change at the airport once they collected their luggage? Oh, she didn’t have it with her?
Sarah, poor planning on your part does not constitute a crisis on everyone else’s part. Quit making excuses and quit blaming everyone else for your arrogant screw ups. Disgusting woman.
Too hard to apply spackle, eye liner,lip liner, bump-it etc.. in a McDonald’s restroom.
Aha – another good catch. No wonder Mudflatters keep Sarah on her pointy toes. There was probably even a VIP restroom available.
Ah, but akbooklover, that means she would have to read something and comprehend it. and don’tcha know? Rules don’t apply to her.
Kind of surprising they even let her in.
Sounds like she went Rogue again.
You guys are always nit-picking Sarah! She thought that WAS appropriate attire. If they had said “formal,” they would have worn Alaska tuxedos, usually made by Carhartt (sp.). I did admire those two smuggled igloo coolers she used to avoid the “No Alcohol” rule, though.
ELEGANT ATTIRE IS A TRADITION, not required.
I assume Mrs. Palin didn’t have simple box seats (why sit with the common (to her) folk, so that leaves Garden Terrace Restaurant and the Clubhouse.
As for where the Garden Terrace Restaurant is concerned, it says right in the rules “No JEANS, shorts or abbreviated wear permitted.” Sorry Sarah and Todd. Though the very next line is “Management reserves the right to use its discretion to determine acceptable attire.”
Then again, isn’t the Restaurant where all the wanna-be hang out? Surely not worthy of the darling of the tea baggers (I mean partiers).
So all that is left is the Clubhouse.
Only rule is “Proper attire at discretion of management. No abbreviated attire. Gentlemen may not wear tank tops.”
Let me repeat and emphasize that for you. “AT DISCRETION OF MANAGEMENT.”
Do you really think management is going to rule against the Queen of the Tea Baggers? {I mean Tea Partiers. Bad CircleA, Bad.)
So why is everyone picking on what she wore and saying it was in-appropriate? “Management” seemed to think it was appropriate for Sarah.
Well, management being polite and all probably did decide to let them in as they were. I’m sure that the other guests had their own opinions, but kept them to themselves.
Apparently she also was wearing flip flops, according to several stories.
Flip flops? Flip flops? Goodlordawmighty! Flip flops?
I’m from an old ‘airline family’ and one thing I learned in my years [and years and years] of flying is: You NEVER wear anything but ‘sturdy, sensible’ shoes on a plane. Ever!
Should anything, G_d forbid, happen, and there has to be an emergency evacuation of the plane, having tennis shoes and/or a pair of solid lace-up shoes on your feet is your best bet**…they don’t come off easily, your feet are protected as you scramble out, and once you are out of the aircraft, you pretty much don’t have to worry about where you are stepping as you make your way away from the plane — it’s very difficult to hobble away from danger with a foot –or feet– full of gashes and/or glass and/or whatever.
I gave up anything with heels years ago and live my life in clogs, slip-on flats [for 'dress up'***], zori/flip flops, and bare feet, now. I do *everything* in [one of] them. Even run. But every time I fly, I pull out my trusty tennis shoes and lace them up…flying is the *only* time I wear them. It’s a matter of safety. beth.
**Although going through security is a pain in that you can’t just slip them off in a nano-second and clunk them on the conveyor belt for Homeland Security’s TSA scrutiny…
***– defined as any occasion where I have to iron something to wear and/or we’re spending more than $75, each, for the event. b.
There is “appropriate” for Sarah and then there is appopriate for the rest of us. She is held to a lower standard then the rest of us, deservedly so!
HOWEVER, the Belmont Stakes Day is different than the normal ones. On that day, more formal clothing is required. Ladies are expected to wear “dress, skirts, or pants suits.” http://palingates.blogspot.com/2010/06/oh-sarah-open-thread.html
I’m so glad you posted this with the map. I had no idea where anything was, but I was pretty sure that the getting lost story was not in any way believable.
And I might buy the “didn’t have time to change” if she had on jeans and a comfy t-shirt. That doesn’t look like something that would be comfortable for flying on such a long flight. Besides, there are women who have gotten kicked off of flights for wearing similar tops – tight, revealing. Yeah, that really looks professional, Sarah. What profession, I’m not saying.
Hey, has anyone found out whether or not she flew in on a commercial or private jet? Don’t both have restrooms (lst class on one, private on the other) where a change of clothes could be done. Considering her wardrobe since the campaign, it wouldn’t take long to pull together a tacky look.
Now I get it–the prequel to this was insinuating the mowing-the-lawn-in-my-halter-top image last week in preparation for the “reveal”. She couldn’t wait to be seen and photographed in this get-up. She really wants those tongues to be hanging out. Please, someone give her a pageant tiara so she’ll go away. Also too, karma gods–bring on teh menopause. Soon.
Oh, yeah, nancydrew, I think you are on to something. Just talking about the tank top focused everyone’s attention to her rack. Then she releases them in a tight white t-shirt wearing a black bra underneath to draw even more focus. She may not be very bright, but she is cunning like a fox (no insult to foxes intended).
That’s probably already started. Hence her flying off the handle at any perceived slight towards her or her family. And that’s also probably the reason for all the face lift stuff and other enhancements. She’s fighting a losing battle, I hate to tell her. Though she does have enough money to keep up the battle for a while.
LOL. Bring on teh hot flushes,
The limo driver probably said, I’m so glad you lost, also too. And she misunderstood what he meant.
Ahhh… yes…”satire”. $P knows all about “satire.”
Like the difference between a “Family Guy” story line about high school crushes and having a DS character –the crush– voiced by a DS actress [which is, according to $P, BAD, BAD, BAD!] and BeckBaugh ranting negatively and derogatorily about ‘democrat’ “retards” to millions across the nation. The latter, of course, being OK, OK, OK!, according to $P, on account of BeckBaugh were just showing off how they’re masters of “satire”, and all.
I think this ‘lost limo’ story is more than a “pants on fire” tale…it’s bordering on an ‘entire ensemble on fire’ tale. Hope the new-found girls don’t melt with the flames of the conflagration {mayhap the black is from fire-retardant materials insuring protection of the pac-rack?} beth.
Awwww…she sure has a habit of throwing those limo drivers under the bus. I seem to remember another limo driver squished under there in good company named Andrew Halcro. And he was an “effite” remember?
An effite young chap! I loved the videos he made. Haven’t we had 2 years worth of comedy?
If $P has decided to “up” her “anties” to enhance her image for a 2012 run – dya think we’ll soon see Huckabee or Mitt sporting a codpiece in order to keep pace ?
http://tinyurl.com/27ln384
I am going to throw up at the thought of that BuffaloGal.
Codpieces – love it, love it, love it.
Ohhh – too funny!
Correct…$arah is lost!
Incorrect…Limo Driver not lost! SEX SELLS!! So Hillbilly Queen marketed her
new breast. Appropriate dress for $arah was a skin-tight, thin white tee over
a black bra. LOOK AT ME!
Next, a centerfold pose in PLAYBOY MAGAZINE. $arah Honey may need the money!!
Maybe she’s waiting for Playboy until she’s President, don’tcha know? Or perhaps until all the darling daughters are grown then do a family spread. Can’t be much more tasteless than having the elder two daughters wearing evening gowns in a tiny condo kitchen stirring up cookie dough (with tons of cakes, cookies and sweets on display). Gees, this family wins the prize for Best of Tacky. Normally I would never say things like this, but Sarah keeps pressing buttons and trashing people for her own sake and I simply cannot stop myself. Arrggh – Snark City, here I come.
You people who pick on Sarah make me mad!! And I’m not going to take it anymore!!
The limo driver didn’t get lost taking her from JFK to the track- even though, despite being a good “Christian,” she was in a rush to place her bet. But we forgive her.
She was going from JFK to her hotel to change- and it was in Manhattan. She wanted to stay in the same suite at the Waldorf Astoria that she in Bristol stayed in at TAXPAYER EXPENSE. Remember- Sarah had a HALF DAY meeting in New York, and she in Bristol BOTH went- and stayed in a $700/night suite for FOUR days. And then she had to reimburse the state of Alaska after an ethics charge was filed against her for stuff like that- Alaskans did not think the Palin family should use public money- contributed by PATRIOTIC HARDWORKING AMERICANS- for family JUNKETS.
But I digress. The Waldorf is 12 miles from JFK, so get off the 8.5 mile thing. It would have taken her 25 minutes to get to the hotel, an hour or 2 to unpack, put on the makeup and remove the padding from her bra, and put her leather jacket on.
So you can see how the limo driver might have got lost.
And he didn’t, the truth did get lost.
But don’t worry- it’s out there somewhere.
Are you fairly certain that padding can be removed? Looks a bit too rounded and freshly out of its package to handle just yet.
Of course they can be removed. She used her enhancement standby. Bum pits.
Article here says:
Seems the limo driver picked the Palins up at JFK And then got lost going to their hotel in Garden City. No time to change so it was off to the track.
Garden City is about two miles from Elmont, where the track is.
And I seriously doubt any New York limo driver would get lost on the way to the Waldorf Astoria!
how much “work” has she had done on herself..wonder if thunder thighs had the fat sucked out of those cottage cheese legs yet..
And on that note, I’m off to a dog walk for charity. Kind of like a motorcycle race but with feet and human/dog power.
The limo driver got lost because of Sarah’s back-seat driving.
GPS or word salad directions from the back seat? You decide.
I think she is taking the term “Groovy Grandma” a little too far.
Oh, please. I don’t know how to drive, and I could have gotten them from JFK to Belmont. No way it was the chauffeur’s fault (NY limo drivers are very professional), and whether or not he’s in trouble, he should go to the press and tell his side. As for those outfits (Todd was very inappropriately dressed as well), just shows what kind of trash these redneck yahoos worship.
When we drove to Saratoga, I brought gowns. When we flew to Louisville for the Derby, there was a hatbox in every overhead, and even at the Kentucky Oaks (takes place a day earlier, for younger horses), everyone was properly dressed for the party. I brought separate outfits with coordinated hats for each race, and that’s what the occasion called for.
If she doesn’t have staff to advise her on etiquette and protocol, she should at least read the literature provided, or the web page. Too busy thinking of herself to do so, obviously. Security would probably have denied them entry had they not been familiar with her reactive behavior.
“When we flew to Louisville for the Derby, there was a hatbox in every overhead, and even at the Kentucky Oaks (takes place a day earlier, for younger horses)”
Minor point of correction. The Kentucky Oaks is for 3 yo mares. The Kentucky Derby is open to colts, geldings and mares, but is usually run and won by the boys.
$P and her husband are tasteless, tacky and trashy. A trifecta!
BeeJay says: $p got lost once in Tucson,
Just not lost enough.
Too true, too true. Too bad it wasn’t a right turn and go south 60 miles: Mexico. Unfortunately for us, they’d probably deny her entry as an undesirable influence…
Unfortunately, I am sure the limo driver will not comment. When you are in that line of work you have to sign a confidentiality clause and can be fired/sued for breaching it. Limo drives, as well as corporate pilots, see a lot of crazy things involving celebrities.
I think that the limo company should defend their driver against this slander. Their reputation is on the line. Palin is laughing about her driver getting them lost. Can you imagine any VIP hiring this outfit in the future? Can you imagine an actor who must make a premier on time…a UN Delegate who must make it to the Security Council on time…or even the sister of the Bride who must make it to the wedding before the “I dos” hiring a company whose drivers can not navigate a short distance to either a well known hotel or a well know venue without getting lost?!
Their reputation probably won’t be harmed. Anyone with a 1/4 brain knows how Sarah lies and will treat that lie with the respect it deserves – none.
I don’t have a problem with her getting lost, it’s her getting found that I have a problem with. Next time stay lost won’t ya?
You almost threw your thoughts under the bus, AKM! Glad you shared them. Actually, Palin is lost most of the time — it doesn’t seem to take a limo driver to do it.
Ya know, I smelled something fishy about that going to the races at Belmont too….but I always smell dead fish somehow whenever the subject of Palin comes around, so I didn’t think much of it. But you are dead on; Wasilla hillbilly goes to one of to the Queen of East Coast horse racing and she doesn’t have a clue! Oh, how mortifying! LOL!
I think she did it on purpose. I think she likes to push things just to see how much she can get away with and cause a speticle just to “show” them: I’m “Sarah” and I will do as I damn please!!!! Just sayin’…….
The horse they went to see race, First Dude, is also too a gelding, like the real Todd Palin?
Nope, he’s entire.
http://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing/thoroughbred/first-dude/2007?source=BHonline
She just did this because she wants everyone to quit talking about her stupid twat over Joe, then about Coach Wooten.
She sure likes pallin’ around with the east coast elitists. Won’t be possible if it weren’t for those hard working class, real American donations.
well said.
She needs to stay the hell away from my coast!
it’s just totally beyond that woman to accept blame for any faux pas, or to pass up the opportunity to tell a lie.
Ya know, if Sarah had been dressed in a summery frock and a track worthy hat, we would be makin’ fun of her also, too. Sarah was dressed like Sarah…..and from the side view in the photos the boobies were not all that impressive. And the cap, don’t cha think she loved that army green Castro cap so much that she had this one made up just special. Would look extra bitchin’ fine with her biker jacket. We’re going to get more mileage out of this than a lost limo driver.
Unfortunately, I think you are right – no matter what she wore, she would be criticized. But this did go over the top! Don’t know why horsey folks get so dolled up, but they do, and she should have respected that. Someone posted the dress code that appeared on their web site – it was pretty obvious this was uber dress-up.
Here in the South, the Kentucky Derby is really the thing – the first of May there are all sorts of Derby Parties, complete with those little mint julep cups. They remind me of those awful aluminum glasses from the 50′s and 60′s.
I also agree that the side view was not all that revealing.
With the Palins, it all goes back to the old addage “you can take boy out of the country, but you can’t take the country out of the boy.”
Little Miss Pyro-Britches….at it again.
Ladies and Gentlemen, place yer bets. The odds-on favorite is that the grifters will be “comped” a free limo ride back to the airport, giving Sarah a chance to be caught by the papparazzi. And in the celeb tradition, she will be climbing awkwardly out of the rear, WITH NO PANTIES.
Boobie bumpits!!
OMG! That takes it all!
Wonder if there’s a way to artfully conceal the devices by artfully combing over random chest hairs?
Thanks! Great image.
Sarah is always photographed with two blackberries. The blackberry has GPS function. Sarah has shown us that she is unfit for any position of leadership for the simple reason that she let some guy drive around for an hour looking for a well know location (so she says). As a leader (she was a governor) she should have tapped the glass, gotten the driver’s attention and given him directions. Let’s face it; the driver wasn’t lost. The story is a fake. People who drive for a living have GPS.
Anyone who has a full time speaking schedule and an eye on a high political office should have a staff that would check arrival times, driving distances, hotel logistics, dress code. There are no slip ups; the staff works out everything in advance. Sarah clearly does not have a competent staff. The other possibility is that Sarah does not do any advance planning, choosing to “go rogue” as her sign of authenticity. Sarah and Todd dressed as if they were heading to a NASCAR race instead of a horse race. I cannot decide if it was ignorance or Sarah’s cute idea of pretending to be a real American (arriving by limo and socializing with the elite inner circle at the track). Either way, Sarah is a fake and so is her latest look.
She was inappropriately dressed for any function. casual or not. A black bra under a thin white t-shirt?
Not true. She was dressed just right for a wet t-shirt contest.
Hmm, no, maybe not. She wasn’t going commando under white shorts. Poor Sarah, always runner-up.
Getting lost does not strike me as a useful reason for being badly dressed – If the driver had not gotten “lost”, she would have just ended up, badly dressed, at the same location – only earlier.
LOL
I may be revealing too much but…a long, long time ago my friends and I used to change our clothes in the back of our car on our way from the beach to work. A compact car no less. We did this everyday during the summer and put makeup on too!
We didn’t have tinted windows or the room of a limo. It can be done if one has the will and the clothes. I’m betting she didn’t have the clothes.
Not surprising…the woman knows what puts “asses in the seats” — Team Palin Sexuality Manual: “Look but don’t touch, touch but don’t taste, taste but don’t swallow” — Al Pacino in Devil’s Advocate. In less than 2yrs, she along w/daughter’s, have become national c—k teases. Palin debuted on the natl. stage as an athletic (twist me into a pretzel) MILF tease, w/the cover of Evangelical-Pentecostal Chastity w/wild vandalizing, drinking, druggie kids and the boob job is just a natural progression…next will be the hair color change (probably reddish) then some of the inevitable underground sex tapes get “leaked”…Sarah, Bristol, Willow or maybe even *gasp* Piper (already sexualized)

http://intheknow7.wordpress.com/2010/05/11/anatomy-of-sarah-l-palin-re-post/
I think Sarah Palin lies whenever an opportunity presents itself because she takes obscene pleasure in people’s stupdity or spinelessness. She is not smacked down for her lies and that feeling of power feeds her ego. Same situation for artlessly not conforming to rules and conventions.
The big lie of “I am a qualified candidate for vice-president” must have been like a powerful drug for her.
The “NFW is she qualified for ANY elective office” drug is far more powerful, and we’re all going to be on it if she tries to run for dog catcher, would be my guess. There are more of us than her supporters.
There could be all sorts of reasons for being late… she and Todd had a fight on the way and they made the limo driver drive around in circles while they worked it out. She had some type of meeting that she doesn’t want to be discovered or doesn’t want to talk about. They were visiting a long lost relative in rehab and don’t want anyone to know. She needed to visit her plastic surgeon for a check up. It could be a million different things. Maybe its less embarrassing to throw out this lame cover story than to disclose where she really was.
We’ll just have to wait for her pac’s next financial disclosure to know for sure…
My comment went into moderation…..or just got lost on the online superhighway.
.I was asleep but got up when my son returned from a party. I was guffawing at all of the comments. Son asked what I was laughing at…and I showed him the pics. His opinion was that first, I am crazy, but secondly, he thought that the new additions were too widely separated to be real.
Thank you Mrs. Palin for turning a wet boring Sunday into a belly laugh.
First, I’m a lowly school teacher (making less than $50 k/yr- from a NE rust belt state – just though you don’t think I’m an elitist), but I would NEVER fly in such “casual clothes,” (that looked like peopleofwalmart creature stuff) as I want to be known/treated as someone with class (and I have CLASS, despite lncome).
Furthermore, if I were going to the Belmont Stakes, and knew I needed to be dressed appropriately, I would have had the clothes I was to wear in my possession, and would have made advance plans for changing.
She was outclassed and outdressed..PERIOD! No limo driver BS! She didn’t have a clue as to appropriate dress for the occasion, because she is a hillbilly. (and this is saying something, b/c I am surrounded by hilllbillies) – so i know what the hillbillies would wear to this kind of occasion -nascar race stuff.
So, this shows that Scarah has no clue the difference between nascar south and belmont stakes south (of which there is a HUGE difference). This was one who could have been president?
Didn’t have a clue? I think not. How to dress for major horse races is well ingrained into our culture — the movies “Pretty Woman” and “My Fair Lady” are just two examples, and we know she reads the mainstream culture rag “People” magazine and other celeb pubs. She knew EXACTLY what she was doing. The “borrowed clothes because the flight was late” for the speech worked pretty well for publicity so she decided to kick it up a notch (or 2, as it were). Had she “dressed up” I’ll bet she guessed there would be criticism of her wardrobe choice in the press, so she went all maverick-y to the extreme, as she is wont to do.
she didn’t WANT to have a clue because then, she might have had to dress appropriately. Better to not know.
Actually, assuming a top-notch limo driver (and the limo company would have been insane to assign anyone less to her Highness) was capable of getting lost between the airport and Garden City, AND his GPS was busted, AND his cell was in his other uniform, AND there were no Police Officers or Fire Stations in NYC to ask for directions from, AND he passed no pay-phones or delivery pizza parlors on the way (their guys know where EVERYplace is!), then he most certainly would have made it a point to say something like “Of course you’ll want to change to attend the Belmont Stakes, please let me take care of it.” and would have brought them to an appropriate shop who would likely have LOANED them (national celebrities that they are) appropriate clothing in exchange for the bragging rights / photo op (and if not, the driver would have had the bill sent to the limo company).
Limo drivers, like hotel concierges, have connections EVERYwhere. Had this truly been his fault, he would have jumped through every hoop imaginable to prevent them this embarrassment and his company even more potential bad press.
She’s sucha friggin’ liar….
I always love to watch the races —if only to see the “hats” the women are wearing. Beautiful.
What Sarah was wearing, looked like something one would wear playing golf. YIKES!!! Class? God No!
On the subject of Rush—–he married a 30 year old. It has to be all about money.
Ewwww, that’s disgusting. My oldest daughter is 31 and my younger daughter is 28. Thinking of either of them marrying Rush makes my skin crawl. Didn’t someone speak up at the wedding? You know, the part about speaking now if you know why they shouldn’t be married? That’s just gross.
And if she married him for money, well, that makes her something I wouldn’t want my daughters to be, no matter how much money he has. Yuk.
And I’ve seen people dress up more to play golf than Sarah was.
HAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHA!
What a colossal idiot. Seriously – anyone out there willing to pay this woman 6 figures to show up and pour forth jibberish AND dress like she just rolled out of bed or got back from weeding the garden deserves to be ripped off BLIND.
Thanks for blogging this!
Oh yeah, I guess in Palin-land, it’s ALWAYS someone else’s fault. Come on New York Limo Driver Guy! You gonna let her talk about you like that??!
hehehe…!
I was stunned when I saw the pics of those new additions. Bet Todd’ers is thrilled!
Just a thought – wonder where “they” sent the kids since they can’t be home alone with a new neighbor in their “wood”
Just to put this all in perspective, I’m runner. I just finished my first half marathon (in Boston) last weekend. I can run 8 miles in about an hour and 10 to 15 mins. Depending. So…Palin in a limo can’t get to her destination faster than I can RUN? Very, very silly. Why even go there? Why not just ignore your outfit and be glad to be where you are?
But she is who she is. And whatever that is, it’s not humble or comfortable. I’m just so glad I’m not her!
Congratulations! Great time! Our DIL is also a runner, half-marathons. However, she is going to do the Mt. Rushmore Marathon this year. We are so proud of her.
I agree. Why even lie?
Brings to mind that phrase, “It must suck to be you!”
Hey JRC I ran that 1/2 too! My first. What great course! Congratulations!!
PS: you can see the pictures on the Web site now.
Keep in mind…also too….to avoid being filmed with the Prez visiting the Gulf, HaleyBarbour(R-MS), the ole tar-bagger himself, went to NY to yap on pox-snooze; telling the world the media is driving people away from MS and the Gulf.
That there is no disaster.
They were in NY at the same time.
His excuse was a ‘picnic’. A picnic to take his ole mind off the pillage in the Gulf.
Poor him!
I think she is 100% lying…about just popping in at the Belmont.
She used that as cover to shine them lights and, also too, take secret meetings in NY@faux.
Who else would tar-bag’r-barbour want to yap oil litigation with than another oil-soaked gov.
She always…has a highly visible yet pretend secondary agenda.
She is the Wizard of Ob-vious.
Wow mustang!
I think you hit the nail on the head, excellent points that I hadn’t even considered.
Mustang, kind of like buying shoes while Katrina hit.
While she is also too there the skank of the hour, she is not also too governor of anything. However oil money soaked she may be. There. Betcha.
yep.
I think Andrew Halcro must be getting a rolling floor laugh reading this post, AKM, & commiserating with yet another limo driver sacrificed to $P’s inappropriateness! He was the 1st “limo driver” thrown under the bus by the twitter queen.
Remember? As owner of the service, Andrew was covering for his limo driver that had called in sick on short notice (like any RESPONSIBLE boss would do!) for Toad’s Cousin’s wedding.
Here’s that old Youtube again of him reading about his under-the-bus and “effete young man” experience. No matter how often I see it, still cracks me up!
Andrew Halcro reads from Sarah Palin’s “Going Rogue”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVrlpxqlZ0M
OMG! OMG!
While pulling up that Halcro Youtube, I stumbled onto another one where Andrew is reading and discussing the Katie Couric interview from $P’s book. I never knew it existed, but this is a scream as well!!! ROTFL
Andrew Halcro reads from Sarah Palin’s “Going Rogue” – On Katie Couric (page 276)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXBaZSSoJjg
soooo… why did she go to the races, instead of Rush’s wedding ??? seems like everybody who is anybody in Republican Conservative circles got invited… except Sarah !
Maybe Limp’s bride didn’t want to fork over another $100,000 to $arah for just showing up at the nuptials?
That’s the point IMO of her behavior @ Belmont…
very little in the blogesphere about Rush’s wedding–except Elton sings (WOW!) and all talk about the fake boobies and the lie about the limo drive’s incompetence!
Once again she controls the storyline…
Please Quitter Queen run in 2012 and hire the same limo driver to loose you in Iowa!
Isn’t there anyone, someone, to help her understand appropriate public appearance? Someone? Anyone? Please! Help her!
You know that there are going to be those who think she is just keen. She is keeping it simple, the hockey mom, grandma, one of us kind of gals. She looked cute. Bra was a bit wrong in color, but she is lovely regardless of her yuck political shtick. Money talks gals and class is…
benlomond2…do we know what time that ‘wedding’ took place?
Her hair in those nuevo-boob pictures looks nearly non-existent.
Her limo driver story gives her time to either 1) yank off her dress clothes and wig 2) yank them on.
She may have simply wanted to steal the show as oxyboys gal has some super nuevo-boobs also.
Lets face it…AKM is way correct: Anyone driving a limo in NYC area knows where they are.
Sp is lying about something again.
Geez… has she gotten a boob job too?!?!?
That’s what I was thinking. I also think she wanted to show them off, hence the see-through t-shirt. Anything to keep us and the media talking about her.
Our Sarah is just plain pitiful, bless her heart…
Even the “Hooters” girls were warned about appropriate attire:
http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/more_sports/2008/06/05/2008-06-05_nix_the_hooters_or_yer_banned_from_the_b-1.html
Or maybe Sarah is simply trying to audition to be the restaurant’s spokes-model?
Were Mr. and Mrs. Palin paid to appear at the Belmont Stakes? Otherwise, why would they appear? If they were, does anyone know how much they were paid?
On another note, what time did the flight they arrived in at JFK land? If it was on time, where did they go or what did they do in the ‘lost hour’?
i believe the Palins were the invited guests of Mary Lou Whitney. Marylou is a Whitney by marriage whose husband died and left her the Whitney name and 100,000,000 smackeroos. bless her heart.
Guess she thought no one else had ever taken a limo before.
Yes, they have GPS and they are also in constant contact with the limo company dispatcher. The other item is that usually with a hired limo prior to an event, the limo driver knows prior exactly where they are going, any time allowances that are important and the best route to get there.
Not to mention that this is their job, their occupation and I have to admit, NYC whether limo, taxi, personal car or whatever drivers, are some of the best in the world. (okay the taxi drivers can be wild, but still, they get you were you are going and usually really fast)
Belmont isn’t some huge secret, most of the limo drivers would have made this trips hundreds of times in their careers.
So, will we hear from the Limo driver or company, whose reputation has been tarnished?
Obviously even Palin thought her attire was inappropriate or why make excuses for it?
Some newer Taxi drivers might not know where something is, but a LIMO driver knows and yes, he knows before they get in and I think I read that Mary Lou Whitney sent the limo, so they know how to get to Belmont!
She wore something stupid and this was her excuse.
At first glance it looks like it could be a bathing suit under that T-shirt???
I’m what you all would consider a ‘troll’… I lurk in the background and have only commented a couple of times. My main objective is to see what ‘real americans’ in ‘real alaska’ think about the Nightmare from Wasilla.
When I read this article and saw the pictures, my immediate opinion was a resounding YES, Sarah has inflated more than just her unimpressive resume. So I did some digging. Here’s a few links to some webpages that confirm, to me anyway, that Sarah did indeed buy her some new accessories.

We wouldn’t call you a ‘troll’ (trolls spell poorly, type in all caps, swear at us and AKM and inform us that we’re “…JUST JELLOUS BECAWSE SARAH IS SO BEAUTIFULL!!!1!”)
You’re a ‘lurker’ (which many of us mud-pups affectionately call ‘hush-puppies’).
uh huh… you a hushpuppy darlin’. now you have dived in the mud and are welcome to come back and play in the mud.
Thank you! I know for a fact mud is good for the body and the soul.
Palin–or any one of the half-dozen adults in her entourage–could have used the GPS on her Blackberry to get from point A to point B. Just follow the moving red dot on your Google Map.
I actually believe she was intentionally late so that she could draw attention to the new additions to her chest. Anyone with half a brain knows that you wear big hats and pearls to chic, elitist events like the Belmont Stakes.
people ragazine tells that elton got paid one million$$$ to play oxyboys wedding.
http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20391960,00.html
sp nuevo boobs???? match that!
Maybe she is pregnant again. Even her arms look bigger. Could it be?
One other thing I just stumbled on.
Just what was her unavailable change from and to?
She arrives all nuevo at Belmont dressed as she was…saying she didnt have time to
change. Where did she wear that outfit, that she couldnt change out of?
Was that a tar-bag’r picnic outfit, is what Im thinking.
Now Im more sure that ole Haley-tarbag’r was lying about why he wasnt in
NOLA area during the prez visit.
Haley and paylin, boobing it up in the city.

BARBOUR: “Now, if we were drilling more on shore, if we were drilling more in Alaska, you can say OK, we can take a longer break in the gulf. But don’t think that a six-month moratorium means six months. It means much, much longer than that.
Question – off topic a tad, but: The Dome is in bankruptcy per Channel 2 News here in Anchorage. It is my understanding that it is owned by ChangePoint Church (former fish place that went into bankruptcy) off Raspberry Road. Parnell is a member of the Church. Didn’t Palin make sure money went their way when she was our half governor? No one is saying anything about the Church being involved. But, it was indicated on the news that the owners of the Dome (not disclosed who) felt they should not be required to pay real estate taxes (which are substantial) and creating some of the financial problem. Anyone know any more about this subject?
In Alaska, people are starving, kids are loosing health benefits, ya got your drunks and meth users, teenage pregnancies to name a few and the Palins shows up at the Belmont Stakes bedazzled to gamble their new found (stolen) wealth on horses…
Tell me again why Sarah quit her job as Alaska’s governor halfway through her first term? I’m still kinda…sorta still inspired by how she can better help Alaska.
The Palins have Black Berries with GPS and they still got lost in the big city…
Well Sarah and Re-Tawd… Piper takes her General Educational Development Test (GED) in what… 15 years maybe?
Better start headin’ back home to Wasilla pretty soon before ya miss her graduation… you know how you billies are in the big city…. easily distracted by all the bright red – yellow – green lights on every corner, seeing all those cement ponds and Taco Bells!”
After watching their first race at Belmont, the Palins asked:
“When do the air-o-planes and hill-e-copters swoop down and ki|| the horses? Weee doggieee… that’s what we talkin’ bout! Ya don’t even have to follow them horses… ya just cut across that big yard and they just come right to ya!”
Who the hell goes anywhere (besides in their backyard) in the lower 48 in capris, t-shirt, & a ball cap??? Not to mention a horse race!!! Down home, that get up Palin was wearing is reserved for backyard bar-b-ques, combing the beach, or a trip to the local Piggly Wiggly. When I first moved to Alaska over 20yrs ago, I was OVERDRESSED for everything. Even when I thought I was dressing down by wearing carpris & a t-shirt, I would show up and people would say “oh you must have a meeting or an interview to attend after this” I would look at ‘em like they were crazy. Alaska is definitely Carhartt Country at best. One time I went to a play at the Performing Arts Center downtown Anchorage and people literally showed up wearing Carhartts & bunny boots. Heck, folks wear worn (not new or dark denim) jeans & logo t-shirts that say all sorts of inappropriate stuff to church of all places! Yep, it’s clear that Sarah’s dumb arse is out of her league when it comes to attending social functions in the lower48. She’s one of those people that needs the GRANIMAL clothing line to get dressed…you know the kind where you match the tags on each garment piece to create a mix & matchable outfit =D And just like AKM pointed out, what driver in NYC gets lost going to a MAJOR venue??? Even drivers that don’t speak a lick of English, blind in one eye and only been on the job for a day can find Belmont Park. She’s such a liar and I hope that driver pipes up and calls her out on this.
Alaskans tend to be distrustful of those outside their environs, understandably so, but this can be limiting in unraveling the mysteries surrounding Team Palin…
Sexualization of Palin has reached absurd levels in her created purpose as MK-Ultra Production M-I-L-F and Global Management Team Sex Kitten…
