Should creepy pervert journalists move next door to conservatives and leer at them? Joe McGinnis is writing a book about Sarah Palin and rented the house next to her family so he can stand on the back porch and stare into their yard while their children play. It’s not like he was secretive about it, though, as once he moved he came over and introduced himself, as the sex offender statute required. And all he is going to do is creepily gawk at them throughout the day, and so what if they can’t always see both his hands? That’s just journalism the way it’s always been — weird, creepy, and disturbing.
What do you think?
All Ms. Palin needs to do is announce her intent for candidacy for President in 2012 and Joe the Schmoe will have plenty of company in the form of Secret Service members.
I wonder … does Joe McGinnis’s mom have a home for rent in her neighborhood?
I think I’d creepily stare at Chris Christie for lots of money. Although I suppose I could stare at the Moon and claim I was staring at Christie. The Moon is so large, it might just work.
Well, if you ask a liberal, it’s A-OK as conservatives are evil and up to something. However, if a creppy conservative journalist moves in next to a liberal to do the same thing it’s harrasment. Or waaaaacist.
The creepy journalist who moved in next to Palin better watch out, though. She hunts moose. Hunting creepy liberal journalists she can do with a BB gun.
As an Alaskan my theory is…he’s weird, creepy, and disturbing because he’s an agent for the equally weird, creepy, and disturbing Anchorage Daily News.
Agree with Palin or not, this is wrong. The sreams that emit form the liberals if someone did this to one them would be deafening. Maybe we can get someone to move in next to Al Gore, or Michael Moore, or Cindy Shehan, or Rachel Maddow, and stalk them. I’d throw in Keith Olberman but I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. msnbc sees stalking the Palin family as good and holy thing. I call it harrasment.
If he were my neighbor, I would hope his home owners insurance was current. Just sayin.
It’s not his house Cilla he’s just renting it.
Check out that fence they’re putting up. I might consider painting the neighbor’s side a lovely florescent green. Mebbe I would get creative and paint it alternating stripes of florescent pink and green. Not only would that annoy Mr. Noisy Neighbor, but it would also annoy the stupid owner who rented the to him.
I’d use something like ThinkGeek’s Annoy-a-Tron whenever I went away. The Annoy-a-Tron emits random annoying beeps. I’d use one that could be placed outside.
If I were to be away for a weekend, I’d make sure to have someone sit the house. Their job would be to cut wood early on Saturday and Sunday mornings and then burn brush in the afternoons. When away, the lawn would get mowed at sunup.
I’d make sure he got on mailing lists for things like adult diapers.
You know…they make those Bullwinkle moose antler hats.
Somebody should send him some.
I understand she gave him a warm furry hat. With antlers.

Real Clear Politics has video of a reporter trying to question McGinnis he’s told that he’s trespassing and McGinnis is going to call the police on him…
Hey ZZ we lived in Anchorage off Cordova street until a few years ago. We still miss that Mexican restaurant that is at the end of Cordova. Great people Great food. No where since has been as good.
Isn’t there already an IMAO statute in place dictating that all hippies be punched? Sounds like any IMAO Alaska residents should do their duty and punch this liberal hippie a few times a day until he goes running back to Berkley, the west village, LA or whatever cesspool he normally resides in.
Whenever in doubt, just ask yourself, “What would John Wayne do?”
zzyzx, then I hope his landlord’s home owner’s insurance was current. Just sayin.
I think conservative journalists (yes there are some, I’m married to one, thank you) should stake out this guys house and take continuous video and pictures of him in his front yard, ask the Palins if they can use their back yard, Pipers bedroom window and the pool and cover the net with him. Lets see how he likes being stalked.
Sauce for the goose, sauce for the gander.
Republicans: What a skeez!
Democrats: Well, we didn’t like it when Malkin went to that one guy’s business and asked him a bunch of questions, but Palin deserves to have men leering at her in her backyard because she’s pretty. Also, she’s the teenage son of a Bank of America executive, which makes her evil times TWELVE.
Leave a trail of salmon cutlets from the woods to his front door and see what turns up.
Nice try Frank! I was one of those guys that actually read “The Chronicles of Dubya”. Now you are expecting me to believe that you got all the info passed on in that book without doing ANY stalking??? Riiight. I bet Barney still misses you crawling in the doggy door.
Hey shiggz, I’m out of town in Chugiak. I don’t get into Anchorage a whole lot because everything I need is in Eagle river including a great Mexican restraunt called Chepo’s. Also Cilla I tend to agree with you.
Disturbing…You mean, like when McGinnis was bragging about being able to look into Piper’s bedroom? Or, maybe it was just Trig’s….
What if you’re not a journalist?
This question recently came up and I was hoping to find an answer here, but I’m just creepy and perverted.
I think some of us should go hunting up by Palins house. I hear the hunting up there is wonderful. We just better be careful not to have any hunting accidents. While we are going about shooting big game, we can also take some time to shoot rodents, squirrels, and other pests…
Oh frak it. This is a job for the Dick Cheney Assassination Squad.
Frankly, if a pedophile, he needs to be given a treatment. They are not curable. If he disappeard, would anyone miss him?
I would not like it if someone who disliked me was writing a book about me and had access to my children. Especially with a pair of binoculars to look into my daughters room. Creepy to say the least, but then, that is the liberal left’s idea of fair play. Try it with them, and they are screaming for law enforcement to arrest anyone who verbally disagrees with them. After all, us quiet, conservative Americans are the real RRAACISTS! Just ask them.

I like the fence idea. It will give her practice so that when she’s President she can treat Mexico like a stupid hippie liberal who just moved in next door. I’d suggest that her fence include some of the newer defense techniques. For example, the rich and savy celebs are using a laser system that automatically blinds cameras when said cameras are pointed at the celeb. I’d be inclinded to add aircraft landing lights to the fence. When the fence detects movement in the neutral zone the lights would come on full force. I think aircraft landing lights have something like a million candle watts each so a pair of lights should be enough to give the pasty faced hippie an instant tan. Continued exposure might force the Alaskan M.E. to phone Boston Hospital for said hippies dental charts.
