Have the police figured out who tried to burn her church down yet? Or, are they too busy following her around to catch her doing something the everyone does.
[Except the traffic is ordinarily backed up, and everyone is usually going far, far too slowly.]
I think I know what you mean. Here in Hilo we call light sleepers people who pull up to a signal light and then fall asleep. Nobody in the waiting line honks their horns because the lead car (the sleeping one) just might be someone’s aunty.
She was cited for going 10 to 19 mph over the speed limit, which was was it, and BFD that’s like normal in California. And more to the point if Sarah is so over and irrelevant, why does a paper in Florida care?
She would have gotten off. Sounds like you would have, too.
The cop had a bone to pick ticketing her.
1. He got the ticket for driving without a license.
2. He told the policeman that he wanted to get a license, but his mother could not find his birth certificate for some reason.
3. Palin got a ticket for going 10 miles over the speed limit?
4. That was terribly wrong on her part. She should be tarred and feathered and forced to write 1000 times:''Obamacare is wonderful!"
5. Myself, I like to drive the speed limit. But when I drive, say, the 55 mph limit on the highway, people pass me by as if I was standing still. Oh, well.
No doubt...prolly brag’n ‘bout it much...
Hahaha let’s not go there - Gosh she is beautiful!
Deep Purple. Nice!
Love her.
Road Warriors unite!
I was thinking stop and supersonic, but that works too, darlin’. :)
Got pulled over in 1999 in my brand new 300 M. Cop admires my ride with a whistle and asks, “How do ya like drivin’ it?”
I replied, “Fast!”
He let me go. True story.
funny, but i don’t believe this story. a story about an alaskan speeding ticket in a florida paper?
sounds made up to me. note the lack of real specifics.
Wait, she didn’t become arrogant and snippy and scream at the officer, “Do you know who I AM?” like most of the dems do?
“I think I used that same excuse one time, unfortunately it cost me $295 in California.”

You do realize, don’t you, that Palin was joking with TMZ when they contacted her? The “qualifying” and “Sammy Hagar” humorous remarks were not made to the cops who gave her the ticket but only to TMZ.
TMZ likely realized that but didn’t make it clear to “low information” readers.
And 10 miles over the speed limit?.... that’s called hindering the flow of traffic around here in Maryland.
We love you Sarah!!
Oh, I forgot to say, DEFINITELY NOT GUILTY.
LOL! I was flying North on the Fla Turnpike once in my brand new orange MG. Doing about 90MPH. I never saw the cop till too late. As I flew by he turned on his loudspeaker and yelled “SLOW DOWN” at full volume. I almost jumped out of my skin. :-)
