The trooper's affidavit indicates that Sarah Palin's candidacy factored into the investigation, with state officials delaying execution of a search warrant until this month

Non story. Overzealous staffer.

I'm surprised that the drug wasn't meth, since meth is pretty much soup du jour in Alaska. But, it being OxyContin, I guess I understand why Republicans aren't seeing it as a big deal. That's one of the OK drugs, after all, for which users should get sympathy, rehab, no jail time, and a return to whatever broadcast show they might happen to run.

Johnston is the mother of Levi Johnston, 18. Sarah Palin announced in September that her daughter Bristol, also 18, was pregnant and that Johnston was the father. Their child was due to be born Dec. 18, her grandfather Chuck Heath told the Anchorage Daily News recently
since they brought it up... it's ten days out from the due date. i hope everything's ok

There's lots and lots of white trash up in Alaska and Sarah Palin isn't too far removed from it, not even counting the future in-laws.

yah, you know, palin's camp never explained why bristol was the one always holding and taking care of the baby
never the mother (except for quick phot ops), never the other kids

I know a lot of mothers, they never put their babies down
I know a lot of kids, they would never get stuck ALWAYS taking care of the youngest kid, esp if there were other kids to play music hold the baby with.

/it's your turn

sounds to me more like them not wanting to deal with SS bullshiat rather than some nefarious scheme

 
Teela [TotalFark] 2008-12-28 01:11:18 PM  
Well I know the campaign's over and it was all just a bunch of ugly rumors about Trig's real mom, but I can't help wondering when that girl's going to have that baby already.

If I remember the youngest daughter was waving that thing around like a ragdoll during the RNC

 
rynthetyn 2008-12-28 01:13:24 PM  
Hmm, the baby would be born past the December 20th due date, if the December 20th due date was made up to prove that Trig couldn't be Bristols....

How much do you want to bet that when the kid is finally born, a month from now, they'll tell us that it was born in December but that they kept it a secret so they could have privacy?

Not too bad. Unfortunately, you can't redeem this for any Maverick Points. Could have used a "libtard" instead of the more passive "libs."

Perhaps she simply doesn't care about her retarded child. Given that she would put her family through an election at that level with a preggo daughter, it wouldn't surprise me.

Come on, submitter, that's a seriously misleading headline.

If the GOP had been involved, it would've been a Big Deal - but the article says nothing of the sort. Palin can be rightfully lambasted on any number of points, criticism pulled out of thin air is just not necessary.

Local law enforcement waited for the Secret Service to get out of their hair before executing a warrant. Not - ideal, but certainly understandable.

"Fill-in-the-blank Derangement Syndrome" and "The Chosen One" in the same post. You guys really don't know when to give a tired gag a rest, do you?

Hey Republicans! Watch this drive...

I don't care if Trig Palin is secretly Bristol's baby, or that Bristol had premarital sex. It's simply not my concern what other people do in the privacy of their own bedrooms. Who she loves/farks or who she marries/doesn't marry is simply not my business.

See? Staying the hell out of other people's private lives is easy.

 
bartink 2008-12-28 02:20:27 PM

Not a Republican but I see this as a non-story too. A lot of us have had in-laws that do embarrassing things, and that's in cases where we chose to be related to the person, not where a child ended up making the choice for us.

If she's guilty of a crime I hope she gets punished, but I fail to see how this woman's crimes in any way reflect on Sarah Palin.

/Still pray Sarah fades away from the national political scene
