Breaking news! It seems that Todd Palin not only has a half-sister, but he also has another half-sibling - a half-brother named Samson Palin. The First Dude’s half-sister Diana, you may recall, was recently arrested for breaking into a house in Wasilla for the second time this week to steal money. You can go to Celtic Diva’s blog and read all about it. You will find it as an update to the Levi/Bristol exploitation post under the mocking title “Palin Family Values” - with the professional Palin-hatin’ diva’s take on it:
Karma has a sense of humor, no?
Wow, just wait until she learns about this latest Palin problem! She and her posse are going to have a field day with it. Todd’s other half-sibling has been accused of something so vile… so perverse… that it spells certain doom for Gov. Palin’s political future.
As Karma would have it, Todd’s half-bro Sampson was refused entry to Britain after reportedly being accused of an attempted sex attack on a 13-year-old girl on his last visit. Samson was denied a visa by UK authorities because he had previously been arrested by the cops in Berkshire after approaching a group of young girls, including a 13 year-old, and allegedly trying to sexually assault one of them.
He then followed the girls into a cafe where he became aggressive and was asked to leave by the owner. Police were called, and Samson was arrested. He reportedly gave officers phony identification information - an apparent attempt to conceal his relationship to the governor’s husb…
Oh, wait.
I see I have made a critical error in my reading of this disturbing news. The perverted perp’s name isn’t Samson Palin. It’s Samson Obama. And Sicko Samson is not Todd Palin’s half-brother. He is Barack Obama’s half-brother. The President of the United States, leader of the Free World and Hero of the Blue Diva and her Palin-mocking crew, has a half-brother who has a thing for 13-year-old girls and can’t keep his filthy hands off of them.
So it seems that Irony, like Karma, has a sense of humor, no? Those superior souls who hang out at Diva’s Oasis, where the pool is always full of blue Kool-Aid, won’t notice. They will have their hands over their ears, shouting, “I can’t hear you!” Exploitation of teenagers for political purposes must be a leftist family value, just as burglary must be a much more heinous crime than the attempted sexual assault of a child.
So I’m terribly sorry for the mistake. My bad. Nothing to see here folks. “These aren’t the droids you’re looking for. Move along. Move along…”

Mike gamecock DeVine Saturday, April 11th at 11:45PM EDT (link)it is “taking so long”. I can’t count the number of times conservatives here at Redstate began gnashing teeth over Bush’s alleged “failure to act” on numerous occasions during the Iraq and Afghan Wars, only to counsel patience since he had never let us down, and then to have Bush do the right thing soon afterward, yet never get credit for doing the right thing due to some artificially, illogical superimposed timetable within which he must act to satisfy the peanut gallery.
Also, given that the ship and crew are already safe, in a major way, we have already “won”. Now, it is one man hostage.
How many hostages did terrorists in Lebanon hold and for how long under Reagan? years?

SteveLA Saturday, April 11th at 11:59PM EDT (link)Mike,
I’m not sure where you’re getting that His Obamaness is directly calling the shots on what the US response is to this event.
If anything, this is a US Navy officer calling the shots, with very little in the way of Obamaness direction. The US military is still being run by Secretary Gates and the same JCS that was in place under President Bush and as far as I know they are in command of this rescue operation and are doing everything in their power to rescue the hostage.
I’m not defending in any way his Obamaness, but criticism such as yours on the speed of response or how this mission is being conducted is second guessing some pretty good and dedicated military folks and I don’t get that. If I’m wrong and his Obamaness and his crew of pantywaists are interfering, then I apologize in advance.
Help me out here, give me a link to where there is a rumble that the military commanders in the field are being held back by his Obamaness and I will owe you that apology.

“One man with courage makes a majority.” - Andrew Jackson
Exactly right.
Flagstaff Sunday, April 12th at 9:31PM EDT (link)“Obama did not escalate and did not prevent the quick resolution”
He did exactly the right thing (kept mostly out of it), and he should be applauded for that. He gave his commanders the green light, as opposed to a former President. His decision is tainted only by the use of the terms “negotiations” and his qualification that they only use deadly force if the Captain’s life was in “imminent danger.” Seems to me that qualification forced the Navy to make some effort to find an “imminent” threat. (At what time is the life of a hostage NOT in imminent danger?) I suspect the rescue will be dissected for years.
Unless important details become classified (and some of the unanswered questions may well have classified answers), this incident will make a great true story.
These four hapless pirates have now drawn us into direct involvement with the piracy issue. Will President Obama decide to “take advantage of a good crisis” and take the lead against the pirate terrorism organization, or will he choose to withdraw and count his blessings?
It hasn’t been mentioned, but this isn’t just a local enterprise. They’ve already collected $50 million–where is it? Surely not still in that small village of “pirates.” That money is probably going to a much larger, well organized, perhaps even an extra-national sponsor. And if they ARE independent actors, how long will it be until al Qaida decides to enter the field?
But I’m retiring from this threadjack.

My only criticism of naval response
Flagstaff Sunday, April 12th at 8:04PM EDT (link)has been to question the lack of any quick Naval Air response to the initial SOS of a US vessel under attack. After that (and excepting the lack of support for the captain’s first escape attempt, perhaps because none was possible), the process was apparently flawless.
It should make a great story, once it all gets put together, assuming it won’t become classified.
