Sarah Palin, Republican Vice Presidential Candidate

[Sera]

Being called insensitive doesn't seem to stop people from insinuating that she's trying to cover up her daughter's pregnancy with her own. It's trash politics.

I just said its odd, suspicious. Pictures can be faked, etc, so clearly it isn't an absolute possibility, but its difficult to overlook considering the available evidence and the circumstances. And frankly, I don't care if I'm considered insensitive. You can draw your own conclusions, obviously. I'm just saying I wouldn't be shocked if a miscarriage were imminent. I guess time will tell, won't it?

edit: btw Alaskan media has been speculating about this for the past four months, long before democrats etc got a hold of the possibility.

bush also caused 9/11

I meant the article, not you. But anyways, it's the same kind of conspiracy theory shit that people always want to justify. If some upstanding journal like the National Enquirer confirms these rumors, then maybe it's fair game, but honestly people on the extreme left have to find new people to jihad against since Bush is leaving in a few months. It's really just pathetic and it's detrimental to what Obama's trying to accomplish and he's made that pretty clear.

But the difference is, some of us are just speaking for ourselves. I'm not speaking for Obama. Sure, I support him, but I can't understand how people still don't see that the situation stinks to high hell. It seems so difficult to believe that a girl who was supposed to be home with "mono" somehow managed to become pregnant while she was being held from school for quarantine and recovery? Unlikely. Anyway, my point has nothing to do with teen pregnancy or anything like that, its something much bigger, that its possible, even probable, that she isn't telling the truth.

God bless everyone for leaving New Orleans asap. White people finally realized the problem of hurricanes and dealt with everything accordingly. NIGGERS LEAVE NOW GOD DAMN IT, hurricanes don't like you!!!

This pushes me almost all the way over to the Obama camp (not really; he's still not getting my vote) not because it contradicts their politics (although abstinence only education is retarded) and not because this somehow reflects on the parenting of the Palin's, but because this reflects on McCain's executive decision making. Either the McCain camp didn't know about the rumors of the 4 month old kid, they didn't know about the pregnancy, and they didn't know about the brother-in-law controversy or they knew about it all and they still decided that she was still the best person to be the number two Republican in the country. Either choice just shows me a lack of executive decision making, something that I just don't want in my President.

Weird...............

Any bets placed on whether or not Bristol will mysteriously "miscarry"? I'm calling it here and now.

You use the Daily Kos as a source for important information?

[Olo401]

This just in CNN reporting Palin's 17 year old daughter pregnant. oh the irony

Well, this takes the media's eyes off the previous reports that Sarah's fifth child (the one with Down's Syndrome) is actually that daughter's child..

Or does it? This might even add to it - two teenage pregnancies from the same kid?

[Olo401]

You use the Daily Kos as a source for important information?

As much as I'd want to say it's a reliable source, I'll admit that "The Great Orange Satan" has as much bias as WorldNetDaily or Drudge (depending on the diarist)

That said, if the diary has source links you can usually use those. Kos and the community there tends to be pretty strict about providing sources.

[Correction]

I want to kill every reporter who suffixes 'Gate' to anything remotely newsworthy in elections from now on. I bet you all news editors will ejaculate when a national candidate crashes an SUV into the main gate at the White House, and they all get to use 'GateGate.'

Fuck 'BabyGate,' 'TrooperGate' and any other 'Gate' that enters the public discussion from now until the end of time. I hate new, useless words in my goddamn language.

[Tymon]

Kos is more often than not the personal opinion of the editor on a subject.

While I often agree with it, I just don't think it's a good idea to read it as a news source, more as just reading material.

I would never use their articles to support any argument, ever.

The point is that they are claiming she is five months pregnant, meaning she would have pregnant with this baby at the time trig was born. As far as I know, double pregnancies are incredibly rare.

[Tyche]

No sex for 6 weeks after the fact! That shit sucks.

Everytime I hear the weird hypothetical conspiracy theories, I always relive the Purdue caller on the Herd. Greatest call in talk radio history...

Oh, at Correction....SPYGATE!

Oh, and a few things from the Kos article. My wife was up and active about 3 hours after having the baby. She could have went to work the next day. And as far as the belly fat cone shape shit is concerned....just lol.

They happen to the best of us

I just said it looks odd, suspicious. Obviously ANYTHING can be faked and its clearly speculation. This is the internet after all. I'm just waiting for what happens...

i love the daily show


oh, also, this: http://mudflats.wordpress.com/2008/0...s-perspective/

Interesting indeed.

[pohibaba]

I find it funny that before Governor Palin went to Kuwait to visit Alaskan National Guard troops, she had to get a passport. Why is this funny? Because it means, likely, that she has NEVER left the U.S. before (except maybe a trip or two to Canada). What a wonderful person to potentially be the "leader of the free world".

[Sera]

Interesting indeed.

The entire site is quite interesting.

Why didn't you include both women, and instead went right for the one who's poor? And by the way, did you just call Palin's daughter retarded?

I went for the second girl because you asked why it was ok in Palin's case but not hers. And I'm only implying Palin's daughter is stupid if she didn't know the risks.

Because Passports never expire?
