Sarah Palin's Jungle Fever

Maybe I'm writing about this because I feel bad that President Barack Obama is taking a beating in the polls lately...It is said that his approval rating is at it's lowest and that because of voter reaction to him , the Democrats lost two important races yesterday...One in New York...and another in Nevada...

I'm hearing that only 49 percent of Americans believe that his jobs bill will get passed by congress and even less believe that if it does get passed it will put significant numbers of people back to work!.. It's not easy being a Democrat or Barack Obama this week...

So when I heard about this news story involving Sarah Palin...I decided , it being near the end of the week and all....to write about this...Is it true?  The poster girl of the Tea Party and the queen of neo-conservatives everywhere had jungle fever once??

A new biography titled "The Rogue: Searching for the Real Sarah Palin" written by Joe McGinniss, (the crime writer who wrote ''Fatal Vision" back in the 70's about Army Doctor, Jeffrey McDonald, who slaughtered his family Charles Manson style.  The Book was a best seller and a movie.) claims that former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin not only had an affair with her husband's business partner, but , drum roll please...also snorted cocaine and  had a one-night stand with former NBA star Glen Rice in 1987, a year before marrying her husband.

Apparently Palin had a fling with former Heat/Hornet/Laker Glen Rice while he was in college and while she was a sports reporter in Alaska, all the way back in 1987. He was 20, She was 23.  A lot of this can be taken with a grain of salt...The excerpt did appear in the National Enquirer.....Also, a lot of this could also be filed under the "so what?" category too....It all alledgedly occurred years ago...but the Holier than thou crowd ,who just happen to vote Republican and feel that the Tea Party is the way to go had a field day with Former Represenative Anthony Weiner and with Former President Bill Clinton and their indescretions...I just kind of like to give it back to them when it's one of their own.

In the book, which will be published on September 20th,(Next Week)Joe  McGinnis claims Sarah had a steamy interracial hookup with basketball stud Glen Rice less than a year before she eloped with her husband Todd. Why are all inter-racial hookups steamy?

Sarah Palin supposedly hooked up with the NBA great, then a 6-foot-8 junior at the University of Michigan when he was playing in a college basketball tournament in Alaska in 1987, the book says. At the time, Sarah, just out of college, was working as a sports reporter for the Anchorage TV station KTUU.
A publishing source told The ENQUIRER that McGinnis claims Sarah had a "fetish" for black men at the time and he quotes a friend as saying Sarah had "hauled (Rice's) ass down."

This is all really funny, but again....You have to take it all with a grain of salt considering the sources...
