Speaking of ex-wives: ‘I thought I got shot’: Sarah Palin describes finding out

[Warning: Contains Attorney Bashing but No Nudity]

In an interview with Christian activist and author James Dobson, former Alaska governor and 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, said that she found out while checking her email inbox that her husband, Todd Palin, was seeking a divorce.

“It was devastating. I thought I got shot,” she said.

The divorce became official in September — one week after they celebrated their 31st wedding anniversary.

[Randomly chosen points of reference: 1) George and Barbara Bush were the longest-married presidential couple in U.S. history having been married 73 years and 111 days when Barbara Bush died in April 2018. 2) Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter recently celebrated 73 years of marriage.]

Palin says the pair are still trying to repair their relationship. “We’re going through counseling now, so it’s not over, over,” she said. “Attorneys are getting rich off of us and I don’t like that whole system. It makes no sense to me.”

“God doesn’t want families to split up,” she continued. “I know that. To me, in a general sense, marriage is so extremely important as foundation of our nation. It helps make America that much greater, is that security of family. I’m not to the point of wanting mine to be split.”

According to Palin, her kids are having a rough time with the divorce, but she says that their displeasure is partly a motivating factor for her and Todd to work things out.

“My parents, they’ve been married for 58 years … everybody’s kind of traditional family sticks together through thick and thin because you made a vow to God that through thick and thin, good and bad, you’re going to make that choice to … jump whatever hurdles are in front of you and you’re going to make it.”

I suspect Todd’s distrust of his wife grew after former NBA player Glenn Rice revealed he had sexual intercourse — and I’m guessing oral sex as well — with her back in the 1980s when Michigan was playing in the Great Alaska Shootout and she was a TV reporter.

@JA, Perhaps this more recent 'intrusion' played a bigger role:

Track Palin left his father, Todd, bleeding after breaking into home, according to police report
Dec 19, 2017

Police were called to the home Saturday night by Sarah Palin, where her husband was found to be bleeding from cuts on his head, according to an affidavit by Wasilla Police Officer Adam LaPointe. Todd Palin told police the dispute began when his son, Track Palin, 28, called to retrieve his truck.

Palin, 53, said he told his son not to come over but was told that he would come anyway to “beat his ass,” LaPointe wrote, according to the Anchorage Daily News. The elder Palin said he fetched a pistol to protect his family.

Track Palin told police he broke a window, disarmed his father and put him on the ground and hit him around the head, the newspaper reported.

Couples 'divorce counseling' sessions must be interesting. Todd to Sarah: You always favored him over me. And now look, he tried to kill me, bitch.

@joker, does this mean big black cocks had nothing to do with their divorce?

"Nailin' Palin" featuring Lisa Ann was an entertaining bit of spoof porn.

Beyond that... I don't care.
