No, I'm NOT Defending Her

The liberal blogosphere is all abuzz with the "news" that Sarah and Todd Palin are getting divorced. She, via her spokesperson, claims she is not. Every one of these stories that provides a link / source goes back to this one.

Earlier this week one of my best sources claimed to have explosive new information for me.

It took all week for us to finally get together, but last night we finally sat down for an amazing conversation. And what I heard made my jaw drop.

According to my source Sarah is finished with Todd and has decided to end their marriage.

She has purchased land in Montana (I wonder whose donations paid for that?), and may be considering moving herself and the children as far away from Alaska as she can get.

See what's missing? Like details, research, supporting evidence and documentation?

Look, I dislike Palin and her politics as much as anyone, but the blogs, and even some news media have picked up this story and run with it. No one is offering more than speculation and circumstantial, possibly unrelated, bits of trivia. Maybe she's getting divorced, maybe she's not. But it seems pointless and irresponsible to gossip about it and its potential consequences before anything is actually known.
