Why is Sarah Palin complaining so hard about Joe McGinniss?

[Diogenes_the_Cynic]

No, innocence is the default presumption.

McGunness has dennied it, though, and he wins the credibility contest any day of the week.

No, innocence is the default presumption.

In which case you should be presuming that Ms. Palin isn’t just making stuff up.

That’s not how things work in Diogenesland, though. The burden of proof is imposed on others, but not on one’s self. Innocence is presumed, except when it goes against what one deigns to be true.

Here is an aerial view of Sarah Palin’s neighbourhood. Her house is the one on the left with the brown roof. It looks like the neighbouring house (with the gray roof) isn’t all that close really, and there are trees between the two houses, so her complaints are exaggerated at best.

Hells fucking bells, look to the freaking LEFT of her house, a freaking HOTEL. She is worried about the guy randomly living next to her, I would be willing to bet those tabloid press guys mentioned above are just staying in the hotel to her OTHER side. :rolleyes:

It’s good sheerly because it’s a great deal on a house. Would you rather stay in a Best Western for 6 months, or stay in a 6 bdroom house on a lake for half the price?

He’d have had to be an idiot not to take the house, and the proximity of the Palins is irrelevant. It’s none of their fucking business where he lives, the end.

dude look at he map above, the best western is on the other side of her house.

either place he would be a neighbor.

Wonder what kind of material he’ll gather while overlooking Piper’s bedroom, my little garden, and the family’s swimming hole?

>>what kind of material
>>Piper’s bedroom

9-year-old Piper Palin, who was her mom’s steady sidekick during the 2008 presidential campaign, donned a pink dress, flip-flops, and Coach purse on Tuesday night to step out at the Time 100 Gala in New York . . .

With her posting a citizen is getting death threats and is in fear of his life. What law was this guy breaking other than wishing to know more and write about a woman who almost became Vice-President of the United States.

When did Sarah Palin almost become Vice-President? Her only opportunity was when she was chosen by John McCain to be his running mate, and that made it almost impossible for McCain to be elected.

@JThunder

Should we expect that some random neighbor might be writing about us? Obviously not.

If we ran for Vice President, put our kids out there in public, are running around the country stirring up controversy, and are working at building a cult of personality, the odds that some random neighbor is going to write about us go way up.

[JThunder]

And if that neighbor had already written disparagingly about the person in question? Then the odds skyrocket go up even farther. That’s why it’s foolish to dismiss her concerns with mocking comments such as "Isn’t it the truth though, that, at this very moment, our immediate neighbours may well be planning to write a book about us? "
