Was reading some Palin stuff and came across an interesting rumor that the Palin baby is actually her 16yr old daughters - see google search below.

The argument goes like this:

1) none of the pictures of Palin show her to be pregnant until she announced at 7 months,
2) she gave a 30 minute speech and then took an 11hr flight from Texas AFTER her water broke, and
3) her 16yr daughter was absent from school for the 4-5months before the baby was born.

If true, this would probably shake things up a bit... ;)

Google search

gee, lots of "coincidences" there.

coverups don't exist man...never. ever. no siree.

just "coincidences". "coincidences" happen. yeah.

what's more likely -- Palin had a pregnancy and was showing a bit less than some other women do, or Palin (who's been denigrated as, what... beauty queen, school teacher, not qualified to tie her shoes, etc, etc) engineered a massive conspiracy and got an entire hospital to lie and keep her secret?

Why does it have to be a whole hospital?

ok, maybe not the whole hospital... but every single person who may have possibly seen them from the second they entered the hospital parking lot to the time they left, in addition to doctors, nurses, techs, administrators, and anyone they might have talked to.

show me an eye witness who saw Palin's daughter being rushed to the hospital covering her stomach and maybe I'd think this was credible.

I wouldn't talk in a state full of gun toting partisans who could "accidentally" shoot you while hunting moose.

This story is... uhhh... I'm sorry, what story? Something some guy made up on his blog by cherry picking some pictures?

This is pretty doubtful ;p Who knows, I mean, I suppose it's possible, but honestly. I used to live in Juneau...The governors always just go out and walk around, and their families socialize with the average people...You run into them at the supermarket. Palin is no exception. Oh, and yeah, you can walk around right outside the governor's mansion if you want.. You can can even go up and knock on the door if you feel like it. If something was up, we would have heard about it before this guy. It would have been reported in the mainstream Juneau newspaper....

I couldnt care less about this, any more than I dont care where Bill stuck his penis... I am voting for Obama on the issues, not because of McCains VP's family life.

I don't know whether this is true or not, I'll be waiting for some reputable sources, thanks. But I'm getting a little sick of Republicans playing the dirtiest kind of politics they possibly can, 24/7, and then getting their panties in a twist when the mud slinging starts coming the other way. The GOP may not be the only people playing dirty pool, but they are WAY "better" at it than the Democrats are...so I think they need to take the payback like men and stop all the bitching and complaining.

Two wrongs don't make a right. I thought Dems were better. This is pathetic beyond belief that the left is trying to tear down a 44 year old successful governor's family. This is worse than swiftboating and you should be ashamed of yourselves.

This doesn't have anything to do with the possibility of the daughter being pregnant. It's unfortunate that she has a mother in the political spotlight.

It has everything to do with a politician running for high office. If they'll lie about this, what else will they lie about? How will we know when they're lying and when they're not. The above posts seem to indicate that lying sometimes is ok. Which times? Shouldn't we expect honesty all of the time?

What the fuck are you talking about? A couple pictures that show she doesn't look pregnant (and I've seen many woman late term who don't look pregnant depending on clothing) and that her daughter was out of school for months? That's what you're going to go on and call her a liar?

You are truly retarded if you believe this.

The point is that whether or not the daughter got pregnant shouldn't be national fodder.

What should be national fodder is if the mother lied about the daughter being pregnant and lied again saying that the baby was her own.

I guess to have any kind of discussion about this, the definition of a lie would have to made. Maybe you have a different definition than I do.

At this point, I'm not convinced one way or the other. This is part of the vetting process, as uncomfortable as it may seem. The repugs would be doing it to a democrit if they could (as they already have). Be a man and take the stuff you give out for once.

Being distasteful makes it untrue? I don't believe this because there's no solid evidence, but I'm suspicious.

I want an investigation into whether Barrack Obama is a terrorist. I've heard rumors and weird circumstances.

Does that sound stupid to you?

So if this was true then two things spring to mind:

1) Is falsifying official documents a crime in Alaska?
2) What about the father's rights?

And if it is not true, wtf is here daughter doing staying out of high school classes? Did Palin condone her daughter's truancy?

LOL. Now this is a left wing conspiracy? Read the original reports - it started as chatter in Juneau because Sarah Palin didn't "show" and her daughter skipped school for 5 months before the birth. You should be ashamed of yourself...

Yes, but if you believe it then you should investigate. Before you spend a lot of money though, you might want to consider the known evidence. After this, if you still think there are questions, then investigate. It is your civic duty.

It would sound stupid - if like minded folks haven't been pushing that point since Mr. Obama started his campaign......

\but of course, they haven't.....

Not all whack jobs are wrong.

Again, it's unfortunate that a kid is under such scrutiny. Hopefully, the parents thought all of this through before they accepted this job of running for high political office. It's not like it's unheard of in the political arena. If they're as fragile as some suggest, they need to withdraw.

Actually, this sounds more like you are trying to smear the investigation.

Nah, he brings up a valid point. But again - how many days has this story been brewing and nothing has come out from the GOP to dismiss/attack/deny it....

That's what the DailyKOS is trying to attempt here. Create character smears to distract from real issues at hand and turn any media attention into negative topics, and you're biting the worm like it's your last meal. These are the most unsubstantiated claims and rumors I have ever seen.

Easy answer. They are not going to give in and give the DailyKOS and the extreme left what they want...which is negative attention.

It's not what the evidence (or lack of) says, it's the seriousness of the charge that counts. Nobody will ever be able to follow this to its conclusion. The rumor is out there, and that is all that the kook left really cares about.

What investigation? The cracker jack reporters at the DailyKOS? You are involved in smearing a family based on a couple pictures of a woman who doesn't look very pregnant (and there are pictures showing she is very much pregnant) and that her daughter was out of school for months? Get real

True, it's almost on par with nominating the former mayor of Wasilla, AK as your veep.

Could've been worse...he could've gone with a former community organizer.

You righty delusionists. Just like you say a democrat is either too rich or too poor, you try to say they're 'Washington insider elitists' or 'underqualified'.

John Kerry lost, in a large part because didn't confront the "swiftboaters." If she can't stand up to this attack, then why support her....

... but if people went after Obama's kids, it would be racist, unholy, disgusting, unheard of, you name it. Liberals would take up pitchforks and torches and storm the bloggers doing it to Obama.... but hey, it's okay if you want to smear a Republican.. even better if you can get them to drop out of the race.

Because she's had the experience of being the Governor for 18 months of a State with 600,000r people plus numerous bears
