Angry Palin neighbor rented house to writer because Palin's owe her money

[RamboLiberal]

A neighbor of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin got so angry for what she says was unpaid bills for renovations that she decided she would try to rent her house to someone who wanted to look into Palin's life as a result -- what media reports are calling "revenge by rent."

And she did: a non fiction writer took up her offer.

Palin immediately accused the woman of enabling a "stalker." Her husband has built a 14-foot-tall cedar fence around her property (photo below).

"No one is stalking anyone," the novelist Joe McGinniss, Jr., wrote in response to an email from a Palin supporter, according to Politico's Ben Smith, defending his father's decision to rent the house. "A woman was renting her house and sought out the author because the Palins had crossed her (owed her money for renovations she had done at their request and never paid her for). So she knew McGinniss was writing the book and found him and offered him the house."

2. This will help protect...

Her kids from being watched by the author. So, remember it's for Keyfob, Cornstarch, Mailbox, Beanbag, and Spigot... or whatever the hell their actual weird names are.

3. Anybody check that dang fence for code compliance?

First of all, most zoning codes don't allow a fence that tall. I realize this is Bumfuck Alaska, but still, there are requirements, even if they aren't enforced.

Secondly, it looks like Todd was drunk when he put that sucker up. It looks kinda crooked. And WTF is up with that big gap under the fence?

5. That gap under the fence

is so they can steal the fruit that falls from that tree.

7. Probably are not codes covering it in AK

They tend not to bother with that kind of stuff up there. Mixed views on if that is a good idea or not

9. Wow. That yard is all class.

4. Heard on news this AM Sarah is building a fence now, around her property.

Instead of meeting with the fellow and helping him write his book she adds fuel to the fire..

8. does it strike anyone besides me as creepy to hear palin refer to her daughters as nubile? I don't

think I have ever heard a parent speak that way of a daughter.

makes me more certain than ever that something really creepy goes on in that family. she reminds me of several women I know who were in denial about the incest going on right under their noses.
