		<description>&quot;False pity for the children in a family about whom you know absolutely nothing.&quot;

I&#039;m sure the National Enquirer and Access Hollywood will enlighten us. Think Sarah regrets exposing her daughter&#039;s private business by accepting the VP slot? My pity is genuine for the poor teen in this situation, but I&#039;m less sympathetic to the parents who thought it would be a great idea to expose their daughter to a media circus.

&quot;I may be completely wrong...&quot;

Truer words were never spoken.</description>

		<description>Man, you guys are really working the whole playbook.  False pity for the children in a family about whom you know absolutely nothing.  Yeah, pity the poor kids whose father works hard a distance from home, and whose mother is the extremely popular governor of their state.  Poor, poor children.

I may be completely wrong, but I think when Gov Palin starts to get more and more exposure, she is going to be very popular with voters, in part BECAUSE of her family.  I&#039;m sure the left will come up with some other form of attack.  Right now the left seems beside itself with confusion.</description>

		<description>&quot;There we go with the sexism.&quot;

There&#039;s that gender card again!  To be sure, I also hold her absent husband responsible.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;I’m going to call liberals dumb because they believed rumors, which turned out to be true.&lt;/i&gt;

Step up for your lobotomy Enlightened Liberal.

Wow. It&#039;s hard to imagine somebody can be so stupid. 

&lt;i&gt;If Sarah Palin can’t manage her own family, how can she be expected to manage the country?&lt;/i&gt;

There we go with the sexism. 

Keep it up losers. Please.</description>

		<description>Gee, Jay, did you have to be so blunt? You&#039;ve gone and hurt my feelings.
In my defense, I thought that &quot;about 5 months&quot; plus &quot;about 5 months&quot; equalled &quot;about 10 months&quot;. Leaving &quot;about 1 month&quot; in which to get pregnant again. I hate when I get arithmetic wrong.
And there&#039;s still the thing about the long flight while in labor. 
But feel free, in all your Wardcleaverness, to bluntly scold me for my stupidity. Just as long as you warn me first that you&#039;re going to br blunt. So I can steel myself for your scorn.</description>

		<description>&quot;Therefore, they support a cop’s “right” to threaten his family with death and his ability to taser his children without being fired.&quot;

This is stupid even for you.  Of course, being a conservative, &quot;due process&quot; means little to you.</description>

		<description>Shorter J: I&#039;m going to call liberals dumb because they believed rumors, which turned out to be true.

If Sarah Palin can&#039;t manage her own family, how can she be expected to manage the country?  With a father working several hundred miles away and a mother climbing the political ladder, no wonder Bristol wanted to fill the void with a child.  It&#039;s a wonder Willow&#039;s not pregnant also.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;And if it’s not, there’s still the question of the long flight while in labor.&lt;/i&gt;

I think it&#039;s pretty obvious that Palin stole the baby.

&lt;i&gt;A. Those who believed the initial rumors are some of the dumbest people alive and shouldn’t be anywhere near a voting booth in November.&lt;/i&gt;

I agree, the people whining about Obama&#039;s birth certificate are pretty dumb.</description>

		<description>Parthenon,

No, the fact that the daughter is pregnant now, makes it more likely that the child is hers.  So many young mothers who are forced to give their children up get pregnant again very quickly because they are grieving. 

Also, what MOTHER outs her seventeen year old daughter&#039;s pregnancy to squash rumors about her own &quot;alleged&quot; pregnancy and birth of her &quot;alleged&quot; son.

Now Palin, as a Vice Presidential Candidate, asks the public for privacy?

With a seventeen year old pregnant unwed daughter, couldn&#039;t she use her judgment to tell John McCain, &quot;Not right now, I have family matters to take care of.&quot;

Fit to lead what?</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Except that they are saying she is “about 5 months” pregnant. And Trig was born “about 5 months” ago. So it could still be true.&lt;/i&gt;

I am going to be quite blunt Bruce. 

A. Those who believed the initial rumors are some of the dumbest people alive and shouldn&#039;t be anywhere near a voting booth in November.

B. Those who STILL believe it even after the information was released that her daughter is pregnant should immediately be lobotomized for the good of the country.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;So then Duros you agree that he should have been fired?&lt;/blockquote&gt;
They&#039;ll never answer this question. Therefore, they support a cop&#039;s &quot;right&quot; to threaten his family with death and his ability to taser his children without being fired.

Remember, if you fire this man you are corrupt!</description>

		<description>Maybe some of the experts here should let &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/08/30/AR2008083002377_pf.html&quot;&lt;/a&gt;these folks know&lt;/a&gt; that they were supposed to fly to Alaska to read through the local newspapers.

&lt;i&gt;Rick Davis, McCain&#039;s campaign manager and the person at the point of the vice presidential process, said there was no abrupt change of course in the final hours. Nor, he said, was Palin selected without having gone through the full vetting process that was done for other finalists. That process included reviews of financial and other personal data, an FBI background check and considerable discussion among the handful of McCain advisers involved in the deliberations.&lt;/i&gt;</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not sure why this has gotten so much play, but evidently the kid&#039;s pregnant now, five months. So apparently that means she couldn&#039;t have been pregnant with the other kid. Or something.</description>

		<description>duh, a minor fact, Biden didn&#039;t lose an election.

Bruce Henry - just to add to your comments. Palin showed up at work three days after the baby was born and worked the same as usual like she hadn&#039;t even given birth.</description>

		<description>Have any of you conservatives ever had a pregnant wife? If so, you should know that the airlines almost never let women in their third trimester fly, especially long distances. Know why? Because it&#039;s risky as hell, to both mother and child. I would never agree to my wife taking a 12-hour flight while pregnant.
So, it showed incredibly bad judgment when Gov. Palin did that very thing. AFTER her water broke.
You must either admit that, or you must admit that maybe there is something to the Bristol/Trig rumors.</description>
