WarRoom on Salon just announced the possibility of outing an affair between Sarah Palin and her husband's former business partner. I wouldn't be surprised to find that this is absolutely true. Why would I think this of Sarah?
I knew a woman in California, let's call her Madelyne, shall we? Madelyne had six beautiful kids and a loving husband. She attended church regularly, and was stridently conservative in her viewpoints. She was for the harshest of punishments for "sinners", and loved to quote the aphorism "HATE THE SIN, but love the sinner- if they repent."She installed her design office in a building owned by her neighbor, let's call him Sven. All of Madelyne's furniture, such as sofa, dining table, etc was in Sven/Madelyne's office.
A friend of mine became Madelyne's business partner, and spent a great deal of time with Sven, Madelyne, Madelyne's husband and Children. One night my friend called me and asked what I thought of Madelyne taking her personal furniture for use in the business. I said, "well, maybe she's frugal."
My friend asked me what I thought of Madelyne going on business trips with Sven, even though Sven wasn't a designer at all, but a real estate developer. I said "well, maybe she is negotiating better terms on the lease for office space".
My friend told that she found Madelyne at a romantic dinner with Sven. Madelyne had tried to pass it off as nothing more than a dinner meeting. But my friend said it didn't "feel" like a dinner meeting. She asked Madelyne, point blank, if she was having an affair with Sven. Madelyne was stunned, and asked how she could have possibly guessed. My friend said it was all the little pieces put together.
What was most disturbing about this incident, and the reason for this blog post, is that another congregation member was caught by her husband having an affair and Madelyne went after her with no mercy at all. Though Madelyne had finally admitted the affair to her husband, and he had forgiven her, she wanted this other woman thrown out of the congregation. I noticed other areas where Madelyn was equally vindictive and uncaring.
In my experience, people who need life to be black and white, with no understanding for personal struggles, often have unresolved issues they have not dealt with, such as an affair. The vicious tone of Ms. Palin's speech at the convention and her lack of compassion lead me to believe that she has unresolved issues, such as an affair in her closet. As I read the story in Salon, I am pretty sure that soon we'll be hearing all about the peccadillo's in Sarah Palin's closet. I predict that they will be doozies!
