Or a typical episode of Desperate Housewives.

The game the whole family can play.

You know, Kos probably shiat a brick at all the goddamn stupid rumors surrounding Obama. Why would they repeat this kind of crap? This election is such garbage. Don't cry the next time you get a OMFG OBAMA MUSLIM email forwarded to you if you're going to spread this.

Also stupid:

Palin says she was informed in December that the baby might have Downs syndrome. Palin is opposed to abortion in all cases. So, why was she having the tests done?

Hurrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Where'd you get the incest angle? I don't see it in your link.

I agree in principle, and expect less than nothing by way of an equivalent sentiment from the "conservatives". They have to play this shiatty game, I'd like to see the liberals rise above it.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Don't you mean GILF now, Subby?

Mayor Palin is lucky she lives in a country where she has the choice to either terminate an imaginary pregnancy, or continue it to full term. Could you imagine living in a country where a woman finds out she's with imaginary child, and the government forces her to fake it for the entire nine months?

1.) You are a crazy person.

2.) There are plenty of actual, non-idiotic reasons to oppose Palin. From her policies and positions to her actual happened-here-on-planet-earth ethics violations and scandals, there is no shortage of material to write about in your little blog. Pushing this X-Files BS just makes her legitimate critics seem less credible. Please stop.

1.) You are a crazy person.

Yes, it does look awfully suspicious. HOWEVER, some pregnant women, even thin ones, are able to go through nearly to term without showing, although I presume the child is usually pretty underweight in these circumstances (unlike the kid in question here)

This is incredibly dangerous territory. If the scenario is proven true--and I mean serious proof, either medical or confession from one of the family members, etc--then it's a complete disaster for McCain. If it turns out to be tinfoil nonsense, then it makes Obama supporters look absolutely horrific.

As Al Pacino said in Glengarry Glen Ross: "You NEVER open your mouth unless you know what the shot is."

Third verse, same as the first.

I sure hope this story dies a quiet death. True or not this kind of Rovian shiat doesn't belong in this race. If. in order to beat the repubs the dems have to become them... it's not worth it.

*Deeeeeeep breath*

Palin did WTC.

Link (new window)

Governor MILF faked a pregnancy to hide the fact that her 16 year old daughter was preggers, possibly as the result of incest. Boy that is going to make one heck of a porn film

"The Aristocrats"!

Not.

Touching.

This.

One.

FireBreathingLiberal: I sure hope this story dies a quiet death. True or not this kind of Rovian shiat doesn't belong in this race. If. in order to beat the repubs the dems have to become them... it's not worth it.

I agree completely. This thing smells suspiciously like the McCain black-baby smear from 2000... Only targeting the mental health voting demographic instead of rural Southern whites, I suppose.

OK, i think she's a horrible VP choice, but I voted "No way - adjust your tinfoil hat."

Oh yeah, and nice reach on the insect, subby.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I think we found the Democrat's version of the "Obama birth certificate is fake!"

Although, this one does smell a bit fishier than that rumor.

Reggaenomics: Oh yeah, and nice reach on the insect, subby.

Dude.

Are you accusing subby of performing reach-arounds on roaches or something?

The other hillarious aspect of this "story" is the idea that a Daily KOS blogger with access to nothing more than news photos available online and his own wild speculation uncovered something this big, while the GOP vetting machine turned up nothing.

God I love the Internets.

while the incest thing is obviously bunk, i'm interested to see where this story goes. if these first rumblings are true, there is definitely something fishy going on here.

and while it shouldn't make a difference, it will make a HUGE difference if it turns out to be true.

I thought the internet couldn't get dumber than Obama's birth certificate. I was wrong.

Thank God there's only 65 more days of this before the election. Then we can all go back to being totally screwed by Congress.

This got greenlit??? Is Drew or one of the admins on the Obama payroll?

If this is true, it just shows that this woman deserves respect. A dedicated mother made some hard decisions and found a way to protect her daughter while being true to her core moral beliefs.

Governor Palin planned 9/11 with Bush. It's true. OMG!


Dumbocrats crack me up

Keep it up Kos whackjobs, you just make yourself look more insane with each day.

It is not true until the National Enquirer reports it, ask John Edwards.

mikemoto: Is Drew or one of the admins on the Obama payroll?

In what way would green lighting a stupid rumor being spread by a Democratic web site help Obama?

This is A)

None of our business

B) Offensive to speculate about

and

C) None of our business.

it's true, i knocked up her daughter.

Daughter pregnant instead of mom? Unlikely.

If this is a rumor, I hope it dies a quiet death. I don't care for all the anti-Obama emails based on rumors. Neither would I care to see anti-McCain/Palin emails based on rumors.

/Would be hysterical if true though.

JerseyTim: This election is such garbage. Don't cry the next time you get a OMFG OBAMA MUSLIM email forwarded to you if you're going to spread this.

are you saying democrats shouldn't act like republicans?

/agree that it's tasteless and out of bounds

so she goes into labor, then gives a speech and takes a 9 hour flight, and drives an hour to a hospital without a NICU even though she's delivering one month premature. okay. that all sounds perfectly rational.

Obdicut: his is A)

None of our business

B) Offensive to speculate about

and

C) None of our business.

I would say John McCain made it our business, and looking over how she has governed the state of Alaska, seems to me he made a bad choice.

Oh noes!

I think Dancin_In_Anson said it best already.

Seneca Doane: 1.) You are a crazy person.

I came here to say this. Thank you for saving me the trouble.

If she is lied to the American public about being pregnant and giving birth to a child, you don't think that is anyone's business? If she would lie about that to protect her political image, what else would she lie about? What else would she do? She's already being investigated for alleged ethics violations, something like this could get her booted off the ticket quicker than she got on it.

I think this clearly falls into the tin-foil hat bucket for now, but if it *IS* true, it's a serious problem for her.

This story is getting some legs...

Seneca Doane: while the GOP vetting machine turned up nothing.

The "vetting machine" you speak of consisted of a phone call and a meeting.

I mean, I am disinclined to believe this story, but it isn't like the impression is that McCain vetted the shiat out of her.

There are more than enough completely normal reasons to assume she is unqualified to be VP and shouldn't have been picked.

Don't push this stupid-ass story without the OB-GYN leaking medical records or a DNA test.

And for christ sakes, that dumbass picture in the link is of her wearing a big jacket and standing behind someone else.

It looks like she's the one hiding the freaking pregnancy. If the kid was hiding a pregnancy, why would she be wearing a form fitting shirt and have her hands framing her stomach.

MissFeasance: Where'd you get the incest angle? I don't see it in your link.

Possibly blaming a gene related defect on inbreeding (which as I understand doesn't make much as sense for Downs as for some other defects), and the suspiciously coincident timing of the oldest son heading to Army boot camp in September 2007, about seven months before the birth.

JerseyTim: You know, Kos probably shiat a brick at all the goddamn stupid rumors surrounding Obama. Why would they repeat this kind of crap? This election is such garbage. Don't cry the next time you get a OMFG OBAMA MUSLIM email forwarded to you if you're going to spread this.

Also stupid:

Palin says she was informed in December that the baby might have Downs syndrome. Palin is opposed to abortion in all cases. So, why was she having the tests done?

Hurrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Because such tests are routinely suggested to pregnant women when they're 35 years of age & up.

Oh look, it's dumb on a stick.

This is kind of mean to the daughter. You're so fat, people think you were pregnant!

Politicians' kids need to be off limits for all sides. Even the comically sad kids of Rick Santorum.

Also, asking why a 44 year old had an amnio before giving birth is truckloads of stupid.

/shame on you, stupid random Koskid!

abb3w: Possibly blaming a gene related defect on inbreeding (which as I understand doesn't make much as sense for Downs as for some other defects)

I was also under the impression that The Downs is more common among older mothers.

either way, I'll disregard the story as tinfoil hattery for now, but I'll probably still laugh about it because I'm an asshole like that. Though I really hope the story doesn't get pushed by the Dems too much. Hell, even if it was true, "forcing" Palin to prove the kids hers would be much worse regardless of the results.

I can't believe this shiat gets submitted.

agreed. though can't we just make fun of the one santorum girl - the one with the matching dolly - just a bit? please? huh? can we? huh?
