Bristol Palin Smear Spreads Across State (E-Mailed From S.C. School Employee Gov't Acct.)
FITSNews.com ^ | Thursday, September 4, 2008

An e-mail smear targeting the seventeen year-old daughter of GOP vice-presidential pick Sarah Palin is burning up South Carolina inboxes - and may have originated from a South Carolina public school e-mail account.

According to a copy of the e-mail (entitled “Sarah Palin’s Drunken Daughter”) obtained exclusively by FITSNews, five pictures alleged to portray Palin’s underage daughter possessing alcoholic beverages (and one allegedly portraying her holding a gun) were attached to the following message:

“(P)ics of Sarah Palin’s knocked up daughter Bristol kicking it. Yeah boozing it up is pretty standard for a seventeen year-old, especially in Alaska where it seems like there ain’t crap to do, but damn…if your mom is a politician don’t be dumb enough to have your (expletive deleted) posted online. Poor thang… But wait - How do you think this whole teenage pregnancy thing would’ve went down, if it was Obama’s kids?

Ironically, we broke a story last year about anonymous e-mails smearing Obama which were later featured prominently in a national television segment.

The e-mail account from which this particular message appears to have originated belongs to an employee of Richland County School District One, a public school system located in Columbia, S.C.

In fact, the disclaimer below the original e-mail specifically identifies the school system and states that “Richland County School District One provides employee e-mail access for administrative and instructional uses only. E-mail correspondence to/from Richland County School District One is considered public information and is subject to release under the South Carolina Freedom of Information Act or pursuant to subpoena.”

Calls to Richland District One seeking comment were not immediately returned.

The “Sarah Palin’s Drunken Daughter” e-mail - which began making the rounds yesterday morning - quickly ended up in thousands of e-mail inboxes across the state, including e-mail addresses at the South Carolina Department of Education, Department of Mental Healthm Midlands Technical College, the City of Columbia and Blue Cross Blue Shield of South Carolina.

One Blue Cross Blue Shield employee, who forwarded the message to at least a dozen of her co-workers, referred to Palin’s daughter as a “drunk heifer,” and a “lil’ loose.”

Within hours, the e-mails were being forwarded to individuals and businesses all over the state.

FITSNews has confirmed that the five pictures attached to the original e-mail (included below) are not , in fact, images of Bristol Palin, and we have sent an e-mail to the alleged author of that e-mail requesting additional information regarding the contents of her widely-read missive.

Obviously, it’s one thing to spread trashy, misleading e-mails about a vice-presidential candidate, but an underage minor? On a state-owned computer? During taxpayer business hours?

Hmmm …

We’re used to South Carolina public schools routinely breaking the law regarding e-mail usage (and our State Ethics Commission ignoring those violations), but this strikes us as a new low.

Even George Orwell couldn’t have forseen this.

But Frank Capra did.

Time to remake Mr. Smith Goes To Washington where he is targeted by Dan Ratherbiased and some ginned up faxed from a Kinkos in Texas and KOSmonauts smearing the character of his family and calling him a sodomite child molester.

Those of you that live in South Carolina - email sent by government employees is public record. You have every right to request those records.

Anyway, if it's discovered that this was a state employee that sent this out -- a firing is indeed in order...

Not going to happen. Its almost impossible to fire anyone at any level of government. That's one of the fundamental problems with government.

FWIW, I saw these pix on some trashy site on Tues.

It's pretty obvious the pix are not of Bristol.

RE: "Time to remake Mr. Smith Goes To Washington where he is targeted by Dan Ratherbiased . . . ."

Check.. I assigned the Mau-Mauing Media a.k.a., MSM to handle that. They're doing very well, so far.

I can debate the merits and problems of socialized medicine. These moonbats are off the deep end and refuse to discuss issues. They just call Palin “Big Oil with T!ts”. Their gross sexism (and their gross racism when they discuss Clarance Thomas, Condi, Powell, Williams, Keyes, etc.) shows their true hate.

George Orwell was a socialist who got sick of them when he saw the behavior of Western Stalinists up front. Ever critical of the US and UK in WWII, they had nothing but kind words for Uncle Joe Stalin’s USSR and flatly denied any horror stories. The viciousness with which they targeted what they perceived to be their political “enemies” (as opposed to those they merely disagreed with on policy) was also upsetting.

The goal is the end of our Constitutional form of government. Not among all Democrats, but among a segment of radicals.

Laws against sedition come and go but we should never be afraid to call it what it is.

Bill Clinton claimed his political opponents were “anti-government” types. Conservatives believed in the need for government but that it is a limited role, one that has far expanded beyond the founding fathers’ intent and even if we can agree on some added tasks, there is opposition to further EXPANDING the roll of government or chucking out the Constintution (under the myth that it is a living document and should be subject to contemporary interpretation through the courts as opposed to amendedment in the legislature).

My ten year old daughter informed me this morning that that lady running for vice presidents 16 yr old daughter is pregnant. I was curious as to where she heard it thinking it was on the news and she was paying attention. She told me her social studys teacher told her . Now why does that need to be dicussed in Social Studys?

it is a shock how many are so uneducated about politics... and are willing to condemn people and ideas without understanding them... so sad...

they are called D-E-M-O-C-R-A-T-S. It's the common bond that they share. Ignorance and webbed feet are the common characteristics.

We do not need the school's info. We need the state Bd. of Edic, the Atty. Gen. and the governor's office. Also need the newspapers that will run the story to get on it.

This is so typiical--just shrug and say oh well, when someone breaks the law.

Assume for a moment that the Social Studies teacher is a female.

What she's doing is instilling fear of pregnancy and fear of boys into your daughter. That's possibly to soften her up for a lesbian advance later.

Now if the Social Studies teacher is a guy, it probably means he likes to talk about young women and sex ~ entirely different motive than the lesbian ~ but yes, they had no business discussing the young woman's personal problems on the public school nickel.

Maybe you should go to your daughter’s teacher and ask him/her.

The Obama campaign must be seeing some HORRIBLE internal polling because they have solicited Anti-Palin statements from Hillary, Sibelius, and Granholm to attack her with.

Those three will be part of a “reaction Team” to attack her....

Yes, Democrats, keep attacking a 17 year old pregnant girl. That will sure go over well in fly over country. Those gun & bible clinging hicks love that sh!t sarcasm off. There really is no point in telling these leftist douchebags that this particular way of attacking Sarah Palin will backfire on them. They just won't stop. I'm praying for strength for Palin's family. The "fun" is only beginning.

Pretty normal activity for a seventeen year-old when I was seventeen.

And how does it compare/contrast to Obama’s use of cocaine?
