CNN Bozo Accidentally Outs His Source; Palins Threaten Legal Action On Divorce Smear
American Spectator ^ | 8.2.09 @ 8:53PM | By Robert Stacy McCain

Posted on 08/02/2009 8:18:27 PM PDT by Behind Liberal Lines

An attorney for Sarah Palin has delivered a letter threatening legal action against an anti-Palin blogger who was the source of a divorce rumor that the attorney for the former Alaska governor called "categorically false."

Publication of the letter at a Web site that repeated the rumor has uncovered circumstantial evidence that the anti-Palin blogger "Gryphen" is a kindergarten teacher at an Anchorage elementary school....

CNN stringer/anti-Palin blogger Dennis Zaki published ... a copy of a letter from Palin attorney Thomas Van Flein, ordering "Gryphen" to retract the allegations -- calling them "complete fabrications, false and defamatory" -- or face legal action. The Van Flein letter, published by Zaki with the name of the recipient blacked out, ended with this sentence:

"If you do not have an attorney, please let me know if you want to be served with the summons and complaint at the kindergarten where you assist or at your residence." (Emphasis added.)

By publishing the letter, Zaki inadvertantly provided valuable information to an anonymous tipster who compiled online research indicating the identity of "Gryphen," ....

Media in Alaska will not be able to ignore the news that the state's most notorious anti-Palin blogger is a kindergarten teacher at public school. Having spent part of my early career as a newspaper reporter covering the education beat, I can predict that "Gryphen" will soon at the center of a maelstrom of controversy....

"Gryphen" [is] Jesse Griffin, a part-time teaching assistant at Trailside Elementary School in Anchorage. At his Immoral Minority blog, Griffin now confirms the basics (without using his real name), saying he has "every confidence that I will be vindicated."....

Good luck with that vindication, Mr. Griffin. Im sure the taxpayers of Anchorage won't mind you calling Mrs. Palin all those ugly names ....

Think of the skill set necessary to become a part-time teaching assistant for kindergarten.

Yes I DO work in a Kindergarten class during the school year. My main job affords me some time during the day and I have chosen to use it teaching children to read, and helping them to become more independent.
I'm afraid to ask but, What in the hell does that mean?

It means that he's a pedophile who's using his position as a kindergarten teacher to get access to very young children. "Become more independent" is codespeak for "sexual independence," which means being able to decide whether or not to let themselves be diddled by Mr. Griffin.

"This individual is entrusted with the care and safety of Kindergarten age children! That is Outrageous!"

You've been away from public school to long. You need to get back into a local elementary school, spend the day and see just who is teaching our kids.

I dont know what he really makes for income. 60k is a lot for an aid/social worker.

He works two jobs, probably neither full time.

I wonder if he is getting paid by the Soros Machine.

Ties to Acorn???

If he has been posting on a website we just need to compare the post times to his hours at the school.

I do not care if the Homo sapien is gay; I care that he's a dishonest vindictive politico. He is using Chicago thug tactics in Alaska.

For years I have asserted that the core of liberalism is the hatred of others, as it has been in other socialist mobs. From Italy to Germany to Russia, these people wish to hurt others in promotion of their loved leaders. These people are dangerous, and must be dealt with.

With history as a witness - every time leftists get the power to do so, they KILL their ideological opponents.

That’s why people who care about their kids should never give them over to the Marxist school system.
