Bristol Palin to hit speakers' circuit

[CLANG]

Source: San Francisco Chronicle

Bristol Palin is hitting the speakers' circuit and will command between $15,000 and $30,000 for each appearance, Palin family attorney Thomas Van Flein said Monday.

Van Flein confirmed a report by celebrity news website RadarOnline that the daughter of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has signed with Single Source Speakers. He added her exact fees will depend on factors such as which group she's addressing and what she must to do prepare.

Bristol Palin, 19, is listed on the speaking group's website as available for conferences, fundraisers, special events and holidays, as well as women's, youth, abstinence and "pro-life" programs.

Her fee is denoted by four question marks, meaning "Call to discuss!" The same designation is given to New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees.

Unbefuckinglievable!

1. oh my!!!

[Piwi2009]

23. WTF

$30000 to hear her say "I was a dumbass!" We knew that already, for free. I thought rightwads were tight with a dollar.

On the other hand, it might be worth a little bit to hear her say, even indirectly : "You can pound an abstinence message in someone's head all day long, at home, school and church, and it STILL won't take! And Mama had shotguns
and moose heads on her wall to show she means business, and it didnt mean shit!"

[ixion]

2. *facepalm*

:wow: :crazy:

[saigon68]

19. She needs a shot of Penicillin

[CLANG]

3. What could she possibly have to say that would be of interest?

(well, the truth about her mom, for example, but she won't be doing that, I'm sure)

[truthisfreedom]

5. She'll be expounding on the effectiveness of abstinence education, and demonstrating the same family

values that her mother shows when traveling on the road, abandoning her family for fame and fortune.

[Tempest]

4. Just another Palin grift

Here's how it's going to work:

Sarah's PAC gives a grant to an organization. The organization launders the money back to the Palins by paying Bristol to speak at one of their conferences.

Sarah did it before when her PAC purchased $63,000 worth of her book.


It's just a matter of time before it catches up to the them and jail sentences are handed down.

[The_Commonist]

6. Of course it's a grift.

And will very likely work exactly as you describe.
However, nobody will be going to jail over this.

[BonnieJW]

7. Jail???

I'll believe it when I see it. This kind of "person" is too slimey and slippery to ever get jail time.

[Tempest]

16. Slimey and slippery, but also stupid

And stupid people get caught eventually.

[bongbong]

9. IOKIYAR

Never forget IOKIYAR. Laws and rules are for Democratic people. repigs don't need to follow any laws.

[thereismore]

8. She is 19. Teabaggers much older than that will listen to what she has to say,

because she inherited some of the blessed aura of knowledge and stuff from her mother.

[obxhead]

10. *yawn* she won't be commanding that sum from me.

In fact she would have to pay me rather well to get me to sit through any of the Failin family blathering.

[mrfocus]

11. How's that "abstinence-y" thing working out for ya?

Urgh....another Palin to drain reason out of the public shpere....

[bahrbearian]

12. Does she do Birthday Parties,Home Comings

and maybe the occasional Dog and Pony show

[liberal N proud]

13. What I want to know is who are the fools who would go see her?

I have a bridge they might be interested in.

:rofl:

[liberation]

14. So she's charging $10K a pop to tell people to do as she says, not as she does.

I am sure this idiot will go through life thinking how she is a luminary for having figured out how to profit from her hypocrisy.

[Tikki]

15. I think the family is hoping to marry her off to some...

up and coming repug star from the exposure and credibility they think Bristol will get this way.

Tikki

[bahrbearian]

18. Daughter For Sale, Rent or Lease

[elias49]

25. Hey! How about that douche-bag that tried to tap Landrieu's phones

Oh yeah, O'Keefe. A marriage made in Follywood.

[Hulk]

17. The reich-wing is one IGNORANT group of idiots....

They'll gladly toss their money away on airhead and spawn. GL to her. Take them for all they have!

Nation of morons...as evidenced by this news.

[harmonicon]

20. abstinence?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
OMFG!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! FUCK!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

[hamsterjill]

21. Not qualified

As far as I'm concerned, this young lady isn't qualified to be dispensing advice to anyone. What are her qualifications? Getting pregnant and delivering a baby? I don't think that qualifies as wisdom.

The person who would pay money to listen to what Bristol has to say must be pretty hard up for entertainment. At least Levi Johnson didn't try to sugar coat what he was doing for money. He just let it all hang out (literally).

[KansDem]

22. The Palin Family: The British Petroleum of American discourse.

I can't imagine what she would say that would be worth that much!

[marshall]

24. Somebody's got to pay to support her child

Her ex's porn career hasn't turned up any more gigs.

[alp227]

26. What has Bristol Palin done to help "the real America" that her mother oh-so-loves?

Nothing, and I don't think that hypocritical "abstain from sex until marriage to please God" or Democrat-bashing speeches will really help. It's unfair that she gets paid a filthy high amount of money per speech when millions of other Americans can't even approach a penny for weeks.

27. WHY WHY WHY??????

I have a headache behind my eyes now.

Excuse me while I go off and run head first into a concrete wall at warp one.
