more than an addict ....

Cindy McCain Ain't No Betty Ford, she lawyered up and went to the school of Rush Limbaugh "rehab." The left alone Mrs. Mc was off the deep end and it involved more than stealing from needy children. Not a problem when you have connections, her daddies are always well connected. It is quiet a story. We have a flawed political system if the likes of people like this can even get into a campaign. Her absent hubby McCain is old and he's been around D.C. for decades, he was born into privilege as he was the son of an Admiral who was the son of an Admiral. He learned how to get out of trouble from day one.

Cindy McCain was a well behaved mafia princess that was trained for charity work. All well and good to a point. She showed a deep character flaw with her half sister, Kathleen Hensley Portalski, Cindy wanted all Daddy's fortune and to be an only child. Strange.
Daddy Jim Hensley was a felon and a goon for the mafia.

Cindy's former employee and a close friend of the McCain's, Tom Gosinski, describes his experience with the McCains, they are not nice people. Here is Mr. Gosinki on video: Did McCain Tamper with the Drug Enforcement Agency to Protect His Career?
Gosinki kept detailed journals, it is shocking. You can see some ways they were simpatico with Sarah Palin. Why a cover up would not seem like an obstacle. They may have shared things like drugged children.

Rush Limbaugh and doctor shopping seem tame next to Senator McCain's wheeling and dealing for his wife. Saving his career was what drove him, the wife was the problem he had to clean up. Neither Limbaugh nor Cindy McCain did any time nor did they appear to do any rehab worth mentioning. So Rush Just Wanted a "Rush"

Sherry Johnston gets treated more like the rest of us. She gets a double whammy that a Cindy McCain or Rush Limbaugh can't comprehend. She is hit on as a victim of both the drug war and the health care system under control of Pharma and the insurance industry.

Yesterday Sherry Johnston was in court to plead a relative minor case involving the pain killer, OxyContin. Alaskan blogger GRYPHEN asks, Does this make sense to anybody?
At first, it looked excessively cruel. There are still a million questions but the final terms of sentencing will be November 20, 2009. For now Palmer Superior Court Judge Eric Smith sentenced her to five years, with two suspended and three to serve. They are hoping she will be able to be monitored at home.
PALINGATES has more information. Prisongate


There is so much under the surface with what is happening to Sherry Johnston, I hardly know what to say. We have to wait and see. This is just to compare some similar stories. Of course, the connection to McCain is mind boggling.

So Rush Just Wanted A “Rush”

Two High Profile Oxycontin Cases

Mainstream Media Fails to Challenge Limbaugh Spin On Illegal Drug Buys And Use
The unfortunate poor, uneducated, ghetto drug addicts get 25 years in “real jail”. People in real, chronic, severe pain that are tormented for life are in their own “society imposed jail” with no way to escape. And Rush Limbaugh gets to become a celebrity for getting caught, and turning his high powered Public Relations lawyers loose with the proper spin on Rush’s pitiful dilemma.

Since the December 18, 2008 arrest of Sherry Johnston at her home in Wasilla there have been more questions than answers. The sentencing phase is coming to an end and we are still in the dark. For a first time offender they pretty much threw the book at Mrs. Johnston. Why? Will this travesty be another well kept secret for McCain/Palin 2008? There are too many suspicious circumstances to think this was not a sting. (The Rush Limbaugh case before gives us a glimpse at how his high profile addiction was handled.)

Cops Sat on Sherry Johnston's Search Warrant Due to Palin
An affidavit, dated Dec. 22, details how troopers used two informants to collect evidence that Johnston sold OxyContin on Oct. 11, Oct. 22 and Nov. 26…the last date being well past the Nov. 4 election date… Coincidence? Arrest Dec. 22
Gryphen: Now my final bit of information is about Sherry Johnston.
As some of you may know Sherry's court date was moved from yesterday to August 19. The reason for this is that until just now the prosecutors REFUSED to make any kind of a deal, because of pressure they were receiving from the Governor. For some reason Palin was pushing for Sherry to receive the maximum sentence. It must be that charitable Christian heart of hers we keep hearing so much about.

I cannot talk about what kind of deal Sherry may get, but the prosecution has become much more reasonable now that Sean Parnell is our Governor.
Levi Johnston's Mother Tries to Explain Drug Arrest - ParentDish
2008 Anchorage Daily News:
Levi Johnston's mother hit with drug charges
JAN. 6 HEARING: Authorities remain tight-lipped about details.
Johnston's arrest was oxycontin-related

Revisiting Rush Limbaugh and oxycontin:

According to other sources Rush allegedly coerced and threatened his housekeeper to illegally obtain more than 4500 Oxycontin in 47 days. The implication from her is that he was in no apparent pain and was just a pill popper who liked the feeling (the rush) and didn’t mind risking being addicted.

Allegedly, he had his housekeeper hide the pills under his mattress so his wife wouldn’t find them. Twice he went to a rehab place in New York to detoxify himself. Never was their any mention of physical pain due to his previous surgery by his housekeeper or in his previous statements of the past five years. His physical body language on TV (his jittery, quick, and jerky physical motion) showed a man in no apparent pain. And if he was in such pain, one would have to wonder how he could excel in such a high stress, physically and mentally demanding job, and be at the top of his form.

Sarah Palin Plots Divorce

Small town Wasilla is full of secrets that everybody knows. It is only a matter of time until the finite details emerge. Who will remain silent, who will let the sunshine in and tell their side? Meanwhile, Willow Palin and her peers are in the same situation as her siblings before. The kids aren't to blame for what the adults neglect. It is the norm to do what Willow was doing on the cover of The Star, not a shock if you are familiar with Wasilla. There are thousands of similar photos (2006 through 2008) of Wasilla teens doing it! One day an anthropologist will study the area, especially the teens and preteens. The shocking part is how young many of them look. Willow is among the seasoned old ones.

We aren't holding our breath for the Palin attorney, Thomas V. Van Flein, to threaten another law suit. He was Todd's attorney for the contempt of court charge, it is all procedure for these crooks. Will they pull another Palin and send a letter only to quit on another bogus tactic?

Meg Stapleton of SarahPac Facebook fame is busy with the "Death Panels." Maybe no one will refute Willow's party picture? The divorce is almost old news by now and who would be shocked if they do remain together for appearances sake. Isn't that what they have been doing?.

Sarah Palin Plots Divorce
The only source in this Sarah Palin "shattered marriage" story is Mercede Johnston, Levi' sister. She says Sarah and Todd are fighting all the time, and Todd ends up sleeping on the couch. Bristol used to tell Levi that Sarah and Todd would argue over the smallest things, like whose turn it was to do the dishes, and sometimes Todd would take off for days to his cabin in Eureka to get away from all the tension. Let's just remember that Mercede is 17 and is talking about her brother's ex-girlfriend's parents. She also says that after Bristol got pregnant, Todd and Sarah were yelling at each other a lot. Um, yeah. An Alaskan blog The Immoral Minority ran a headline: "Sarah And Todd Palin Are Splitsville." The blog claimed that Sarah had purchased land in Montana and was considering relocating there with the kids. Plus! After a fight, Sarah threw her wedding ring into Lake Lucille.....

Palin's "Death Panel" for the Elderly in Alaska

PHOTOS: Top Teen Celebrity Scandals: Which Is the Worst?

Rob Lowe has been playing with young beauties since the 1980s.
It was a different time, a young white man could film himself fornicating with an under aged girl he picked up in a bar. He was a film maker and filmed having sex all over the world with all ages under 25. In Atlanta, the young girl didn't tell him her age. He didn't get the 20 years behind bars or registered sex offender status he earned. Instead, down the road there were more allegations with a nanny. The story first came out by way of Lowe on Huffington Post and he hired the best aggressive lawyers in the area. Before "Sarracuda," there was the legendary "Barracuda." We aren't talking a meager $185.oo an hour. Barry Cappello may be vicious, he's been a victim of love and lost a few but for the most part he works for his clients. The Rob Lowe nanny case went quietly away, not because he is so innocent or his wife doesn't have her reputation. It went away because Lowe is rich and hired the best aggressive law teams.

The problem with covering up these little secrets is that they pop up
again and again.
The sad story of Cameron Douglas is another example. Coincidentally, the Lowe and Douglas families are part of the same community of friends that fawn over the biggest litigant on the west coast. The text book case of aggressive litigation, Citizen McCaw.

"Oh yeah I do."

Shocking! Levi blush!

If you wanna read something funny, Fox News totally took the as a face-value couple. As did, well, a lot of news sources who don't seem to get Griffin's confrontational sense of humor.

The father of Sarah Palin’s grandson embarks on another wild ride, on his terms
- The father of Sarah Palin’s grandson embarks on another wild ride, on his terms
The book of Levi By Brendan Joel Kelley (excerpts)

“We’ve never picked up the phone and said, ‘hey, come do a story,’” Tank says. “Everybody’s pursued him.”

And what Levi and his handlers are doing is trying to turn a bad situation into a net positive for the 19-year-old from Wasilla who knocked up the wrong girl at the wrong time.

“There’s so many misconceptions, like he wants to damage the Palins or hurt the Palins,” Tank says. “This is what he’s been left. He didn’t ask to be put in this situation. This is the card he’s been dealt and he needs to deal with it. He can’t change; that’s history.

“They know I know things. I can tell you [Sarah’s] not happy with me, but she can’t do anything about it.”
Levi has things to say that Sarah Palin would not want media or her donors to know. She can't do anything about Levi? That doesn't mean she won't try, she plays dirty and hasn't met a lie she won't behold. She has been in attack mode for the most insignificant nonsense, what on scorched earth will she do if Levi dares to tell the truth?

One of these days Bristol Palin's part will need to be brought up again.

Bristol Palin's MySpace File
Palin's Deceptions, a meticulous, obsessive blog devoted to proving that Sarah Palin is not the mother of Trigg, has published an exhaustive "analysis" of Bristol Palin's MySpace messages going back to 2005.
"The view of teen life in Wasilla Alaska gleaned from the *fifty or so MySpace pages that our researchers have followed diligently shows a sad, disappointing, in fact, very upsetting tale. If these are the family values that the McCain campaign hoped Gov. Palin would bring to America, all I can say is "no thanks." Drug and alcohol use is detailed, even boasted about regularly, by teens as young as fourteen and fifteen. Young women who are no more than fifteen discuss who is f***ing whom with the ease of a discussion about who will pick up the pizza. Bristol Palin, presented to the country by her mother as an honor student, at age 16 does not spell the word "decided" correctly."

Did Bristol Palin have anything to do with Sherry Johnston's drug bust?

*Fifty or so MySpace pages of Wasilla Alaska is the low number.

The Mean Girl News--week ending Friday, July 31
excerpts:
Or maybe...just maybe...she's making time for that upcoming hearing in Alaska.

So, Rep. Gara, don't tell me this was about "Sarah's Personality." This has been about real problems in the villages who have suffered horribly for the loss of Walt Monegan and his ground-breaking ideas to curb sexual assault and domestic violence (none of our new Public Safety Commisioners since have stepped up on that issue) This has been about real problems in Rural Alaska, who last winter had to choose between fuel and food and the only Legislator to publicly stand up and actually do something was Republican Jay Ramras. This has been about the almost 1000 people still on a waiting list for Disability benefits who have been ignored by both the Governor and the Legislature.
However, what this is really about for Les is the coming election.

But Mr. Gara doesn't realize that this stuff isn't going away any time soon. In the future, I'll be able to tell you guys how much worse it has gotten trying to deal with the State Government since Palin left...especially the Personnel Board, supposedly "independent" investigators, former Palin staffers now turned Parnell staffers and folks in charge of anything to do with records requests. It is obvious that Palin's complete disregard for Alaska Law has trickled down to the people who worked for her.

Gara is right about one thing...Alaska has multiple, severe problems to face. These are either a DIRECT RESULT OF or made worse by Palin's abandonment of this state with help from the LEGISLATURE'S refusal to act.
