Mike Allen Wins The Slow News Month With Groundbreaking SCOOP About Sarah Palin!

Genius.Pulitzer, anyone? Here is the entirety of the most important news story ever written by a human reporter since Watergate, times the Pentagon Papers, divided by the untold story of 9/11, times a million, minus Martha Gellhorn:

Palin calls divorce report ‘made up’

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin tells POLITICO that widespread blogosphere reports about a possible divorce from her husband, Todd, are “made up.”

In a brief telephone interview on Tuesday night, Palin quipped that she loves finding out “what’s goin’ on in my life from the news.”

“Do you want to talk to Todd?” she teased. “He’s sitting right next to me.” But he didn’t come on the line.

Fuck the Pulitzer. We are talking NOBEL PRIZE here, for awesomeness.

    Through the bottom of the barrel, into the ground below, burrowing into the Earth’s crust, halfway to China.

  2. ManchuCandidate says at 10:09 am, August 5th, 2009

    Instead Mike and Sarah spent an entire hour talking about E!’s Behind The Scenes docudrama about Three’s Company till she finally broke down and admitted that Todd was out “snowmobiling.”

    So, given the choice between accompanying his RedState-GILF-y wife on her LookaMe Tour, and spending time in the oil fields, Todd goes for the Brokeback Mountain territory. I wonder what kind of oil he’s *really* prospecting for, HENNNNNGGGHHH?

  4. Bill E Pilgrim says at 10:11 am, August 5th, 2009

    But he didn’t come on the line.

    BUT HE DIDN’T COME ON THE LINE.

    Sheeple.

    My god, the man thinks he only won a Pulitzer and he’s sitting on at least a Drudge five-siren statuette!

  5. Capitol Hillbilly says at 10:12 am, August 5th, 2009

    Politico has it goin’ on.

  6. Better American Than You says at 10:14 am, August 5th, 2009

    I see that Michael’s has No-Neck Clams served with Asshole in Taint Sauce.

  7. comicbookguy says at 10:15 am, August 5th, 2009

    He’s out snowmobiling on the Appalachian Trail? Most obvious joke. Ever.

  8. Noodle Salad says at 10:15 am, August 5th, 2009

    “She teased.” Apparently Palin’s cell number is 1-900-SEXYGUV.

  9. Marlowe says at 10:16 am, August 5th, 2009

    ManchuCandidate:
    At first, t read “snowmobiling”
    as
    “snowmoballing”

  10. hobospacejunkie says at 10:17 am, August 5th, 2009

    Sarah would get a proverbial boner if her name was in the news for horse fucking,

  11. Oldskool says at 10:19 am, August 5th, 2009

    Do internets reporters get paid in real money? Or is it like monopoly money.

  12. El Pinche says at 10:23 am, August 5th, 2009

    Yeah, I bet we see this journalistic masterpiece on every news channel on the teebeee.

  13. hobospacejunkie says at 10:25 am, August 5th, 2009

    “Do you want to talk to Todd?” She teased. “He’s sitting right next to me. Of course he has an IQ of about 25 so all he does is drool and grunt, but you can talk to him if you wanna,” she said, between loud smacks of gum and long draws on a meth pipe.

  14. memzilla says at 10:25 am, August 5th, 2009

    BTW, Caribou Barbie’s publisher, HarperCollins, is owned by Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp., which lately employed Judith Regan, who got fired over the OJ “If I Did It” mishegas, who was f***ing Bernie Kerik, who got fired for billing us NYC taxpayers for their WTC lovenest, who had dinner with… Kevin Bacon.

  15. ““Do you want to talk to Todd?” she teased. “He’s sitting right next to me.” But he didn’t come on the line.”

    “Sitting right next to me” is Alaskimo for “orally pleasuring me with his thick moose-like tongue”

  16. magic titty says at 10:28 am, August 5th, 2009

    She sounded like she was in HS, being an asshole to Todd’s ex-girlfriend.

    “You wanna talk to Todd…?…he’s right herrrre…” CLICK.

  17. Toy Needle says at 10:29 am, August 5th, 2009

    That reads like a non-denial denial denial to these ears.

  18. WadISay says at 10:35 am, August 5th, 2009

    It can’t be said often enough: screw Politico, and, particularly, screw its headline writer with an oil drill bit. The lower RH corner of its front page is dedicated to what some right wing screamer is spraying spittle about at the moment. “Rush Limbaugh Lashes Out at Obama.” Some freakin’ news. (*spits on floor*)

  19. germansteel says at 10:36 am, August 5th, 2009

    I don’t believe it for one minute. Sarah wouldn’t waste an opportunity like this to mention the troops, so I’m gonna call bullshit on the whole damn story!!

  20. 4tehlulz says at 10:36 am, August 5th, 2009

    Todd may not have come on the line, but Mike Allen did.

  21. She should have hung up and called them back in media coitus.

  22. teebob2000 says at 10:40 am, August 5th, 2009

    Aw, c’mon, we’re ruining it for them!! Now they HAVE to stay together as least a couple more months, so they can then break up and blame it on the media!! Sheesh!

  23. freakishlystrong says at 10:40 am, August 5th, 2009

    I guess Oily Taint was getting too much media time…

  24. Monsieur Grumpe says at 10:47 am, August 5th, 2009

    Worst porn ever.

  25. Aquannissiwamissoo says at 10:49 am, August 5th, 2009

    Russian subs off coast = missing white woman.

    Lather, rinse, repeat.

  26. S.Luggo says at 10:50 am, August 5th, 2009

    Next will be hearing that Bristol and Levi are planning to break up. Enough of your lies, MSM. Enough of your damned lies.

  27. thehelveticascenario says at 10:52 am, August 5th, 2009

    Oldskool: WoW gold.

  28. WideStance says at 10:52 am, August 5th, 2009
  29. “Do you want to talk to Todd?” she teased. “He’s sitting right next to me.” But he didn’t come on the line.

    This is the old “I dare you to call my bluff” trick, used by spies and crooks for centuries. Todd, of course, was not really there — Palin was just daring Allen to call her bluff, but she knew he wouldn’t because no purveyor of winger talking points (formally known as “journalists”) would dare question the honesty of Caribou Barbie.

  30. Manos: Hands of Fate says at 11:00 am, August 5th, 2009

    Allen is stonecold winning the decade with this stuff.

  31. Gopherit says at 11:09 am, August 5th, 2009

    Todd would have spoken up, but he was too busy sucking her purple penetrator.

  32. Sharif DelMonte says at 11:15 am, August 5th, 2009

    Needs more shark.

  33. Poopley J. Crandleberry says at 11:19 am, August 5th, 2009

    He told her to get that abortion. Look what its costing her now. women.

  34. Elm Hugger says at 11:20 am, August 5th, 2009

    OK, so now she says she reads the papers? When she was asked that before she just said “all of them”. Which does she read? Maybe all she reads is the national enquirer, perhaps that explains how the scrub and friends got so many things wrong.

  35. thefrontpage says at 11:25 am, August 5th, 2009

    Everyone knows that Sarah Palin is divorcing that moose-huntin’ and fish-catchin’ guy, Rodd, to marry Larry Craig! Palin and Craig have been having a torrid affair for years, and they used Ted Stevens’ place for their illicit trysts, which sometimes lasted all weekend. The troopers in Troopergate guarded Stevens’ home while Palin and Craig were there, and that one trooper threatened to tell the story to The National Enquirer, and that’s why he was fired. Craig was on his way to Alaska when he stopped at that bathroom; he was on the phone with Palin when she started singing, and Craig started tapping his foot to the music. Rumors of the affair prompted investigations of Palin, her husband Rodd, Stevens, Craig and, for some reason, Ann Coulter and Michelle Malkin.

    That’s the real story, and we’re not makin’ it up!

  36. Naked Bunny with a Whip says at 11:37 am, August 5th, 2009

    I can’t help but notice that Palin’s assertion about her marriage was just as unsourced as the original story!

  37. Ye Olde Fap-Smith says at 11:45 am, August 5th, 2009

    Mike Allen is an obsequious, sniveling shit-sack. His face just screams “punch me, repeatedly.”

  38. tbogg: “But he didn’t come on the line.”

    That’s Alaskan for “Was unable to achieve orgasm during phone sex [with a chachaco].”

  39. OReillysVibrator says at 1:01 pm, August 5th, 2009

    I think Todd is really Bristol’s stillborn son that Governor Palin then claimed is her husband, if you don’t believe me look at his interview responses.

  40. Accordion-o-rama says at 1:04 pm, August 5th, 2009

    But which Todd was sitting there next to her? Pretty convenient of her not to mention the last name, eh?

  41. geminisunmars says at 1:36 pm, August 5th, 2009

    4tehlulz: How you say . . . good 1

  42. Extemporanus says at 1:47 pm, August 5th, 2009

    4tehlulz: And I just came on your comment.

  43. Atheist Nun says at 2:36 pm, August 5th, 2009

    She’s only a private citizen now, so: who gives a shit. If I paid attention to every has-been in the political arena, that would bring me to the same level as a Nader supporter.

    I saw a bunch of these Politico jerks on Charlie Rose one night. It’s a bunch of know-nothing, 3rd-tier Prep School rejects that sound like they’re reading from “The Little White Booklet of Outdated Buzz Words and Cliches For Ignorant White People Who Cheated Their Way Through An Overpriced College and Now Need to Pad Their Arguments With Empty Sloganeering” ©1981

    The whole interview was like this:
    “We need to think out side of the box, keep reaching for the stars and give 110%! We need to take two steps forward and one step back before we step up to the plate! With all due respect, Obama can talk the talk, but can he walk the talk? There’s been a Paradigm shift in this country, and lessons will be learned. Having said that, at the end of the day, he doesn’t pull any punches…”

    Barf.

  44. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 3:42 pm, August 5th, 2009

    Wait, are you saying that my column on adopting kittens for the local Shopper Gazette is not worthy of the Nobel Prize in Awesomeness?

  45. Uncle Glenny says at 7:47 pm, August 5th, 2009

    But he didn’t come on the line.

    Todd has a very long refractory period due to snowmachine-induced nerve damage to his oily taint.

    Atheist Nun: Wow, it took Glenn Greenwald over a thousand words to say the same thing. I salute you!

  46. zhubajie says at 3:35 am, August 6th, 2009

    I suspect they belong to a pentecostal “christian” polyamory cult.

    Meanwhile, on the Palin front:

    New hot-in-love couple Sarah Palin and Larry Craig rolled into Sturgis late Wednesday night on some new, shiny Harleys, and they were an immediate hit at The Buffalo Chip. Craig took tons of pictures of some bare-chested women, Palin was wearing a sexy leopard-skin halter top and short shorts, and they even cranked out some mean versions of “Ten Seconds To Love” and “Shout at the Devil” at the Biker Kareoke Contest at The Whild Hoggs bar. Palin and Craig told folks that they listened to a lot of Motley Crue during their ride from Iowa to Sturgis. They said that they’re heading to Burning Man next, where they’ll host a Bikers and Politicians Community at the annual bohemian arts gathering in the desert.
