Breaking his silence, the man who so skillfully horrified liberals by doing his job in the background of a Sarah Palin interview:

"I thought they had panned in on her face…I did try and block the process," he said.

Tomes has worked at the Triple D Turkey Farm in Palin's hometown of Wasilla for nine years. He offered support for the former vice-presidential candidate.

"The only thing I can say is, 'Don't mess with my governor!'"

Don't mess with her, he says. It's up to you if you'd like to ignore a man that handy with a turkey chipper.
