SARAH Palin is the victim of a crass rumour about her son/daughter Trig.
Extensive research reveals that Trig is the name of Palin’s human child and not any part of her anatomy, her daughter Bristol’s child nor the pet miniature horse she keeps in her office and feeds on human placentas.
The Gawker blog uses a Palin quote to prove something or other:
“I like running the hills, it kills me. That’s why I like it; I mean it thrashes your guts and your lungs and your thighs.”
With a “HMMM”, Gawker says this is Palin talking in her sixth month of pregnancy.
Anorak says this is no more than Sarah Palin proving to America that she is as American as HRT, jogging and paranoia about being fat and unable to jog being their gift to the world.
Why is this news?
Well, Trig has Down’s Syndrome. Palin is a member of something called “pro-life”, a right wing group that is so pro human life it will blow seven shades of moose stuffing out of anyone who approves of abortion.
Trig was not aborted. So Trig is a story.
Anorak wonders how such hysteria can be whipped up so easily, and how it can cast a shadow over the real sensation that Trig has a triangular-shaped head and a mole that looks like Tom Crusie on his third eyelid.
And how will Bible Belt Christians react to news that Palin’s son is disabled? As former England football manager Glenn Hoddle put it:
“You and I have been physically given two hands and two legs and half-decent brains. Some people have not been born like that for a reason. The karma is working from another lifetime. I have nothing to hide about that. It is not only people with disabilities. What you sow, you have to reap.”
Trig Palin is black, so they say…

Not small minds.
What concerned me was why a high risk pregnant women would risk a 8 - 9 hour flight from dallas to Anchorage after her water broke and was having contractions then not stop at the closest hospital but drive across town. It is the judgement of a person who may become our V.P and a heartbeat away from being president.
That decision is a personal one but it does not come across as a sound decision that most americans would make, they would go to the hospital no matter what state and have the baby.
It just seems strange.
Sarah Palin put herself in the situation for folks to judge her judgement and since her judgement may hold the key to a nuclear weapon that can destroy all of civilization we have a right to question her decision making abilities.

Correction: “Give us authentic, uncompromised scientific evidence that proves Bristol and perhaps Levi Johnston are NOT the parents of Trig and we will have no choice but to admit we were wrong and then we will shut up about it once and for all.” Sorry.

The only way this story will be put to rest is through reliable, closely monitored DNA testing. This would tell us once and for all who is Trig’s father and mother. Barring the even more disturbing implication of father/daughter incest or adultery on Sarah’s part, the daddy will have to be Todd Palin. Give us authentic, uncompromised scientific evidence that proves Bristol and perhaps Levi Johnston are the parents of Trig and we will have no choice but to admit we were wrong and then we will shut up about it once and for all.
Don’t hold your breath though. The Palins are staunch creationists who deny scientific inquiry in favor of their fundamentalist beliefs. Plus, it works to McCain’s advantage to keep this quarrel going so we do not start looking too closely at his own record.
Any way you slice it this is a horrible situation brought into the public spotlight by Sarah Palin herself. She took a big risk when she chose a path of political expediency over protecting her daughter’s reputation. Now Bristol may be seen as an irresponsible teenage sinner in her fundamentalist circle of her “family values” cult but Sarah’s politically calculated image as a strong “pro-lifer” remains intact. The lunatic fringe of the Republican Party is all a-twitter over the fact that neither a Down Syndrome baby nor the bastard fetus growing in Bristol’s belly was not aborted, thereby reinforcing Sarah Palin’s stand against abortion even in the worst possible circumstances such as when the mother’s life is at stake.
Sarah Palin brought this unsavory speculation all on herself when she chose to announce her daughter’s pregnancy in order to quell the rumors that questioned her own maternity of baby Trig. Had she instead announced that Bristol was going to be married, then it really would be nobody’s business if Bristol was pregnant or not. Marriage was a distant afterthought in Sarah’s announcement. It was all about an extramarital pregnancy.
If Sarah had said, “My daughter is getting married” it would have been nobody’s business why or what led to her decision to get married.

My God, you people are too dumb to govern. Think. Read. Research. Rationalize. These are incredibly difficult times. Get involved in ways that make real differences.
Join the Red Cross or teach an illiterate person to read, volunteer to fill sandbags or feed the homeless. Take a child to Church and introduce them to Jesus. Get involved in a polital issue of your choice and support a candidate of your choice but for God’s sake grow up. This is like reading a dime story sci-fi comic. There are no Aliens and this is a rediculous conspiracy theory. Click off the computer now, and go do something productive and meaningful. Life is way too short. Think of how blessed you are and find a way to pay it forward. I am getting of this crazy blog now and I’m going to help my friends pick up fallen limbs from Gustav. Your life will never change and become truly meaningful until you do something greater than yourself and your poisonous time sucking conspirital gossip!

This “story” has all the hallmarks of a Karl Rove operation. Remember the rumors in the So.Carolina Primary 2000 against McCain (that fathered a bastard negro child, or the mass-mailing to 2004 voters in conservative swing-districts that John Kerry would “outlaw the Bible”? This is part & parcel of the same masterful deceit: that’s why Barack Obama says ‘Don’t touch this Tar Baby!’
Sarah Palin wasn’t prego. If Bristol really is now, Trig can’t be hers. That means Trig was ADOPTED, and all these pillows & rumors are just fluff to get you talking about the pro-Life Sarah Palin. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
Confused? Sarah is the legal mother, Bristol is raising the baby and we are all gossiping DISTRACTED dupes. Take it to the next level: you need to wonder what the carefully planned & fabricated distraction is for.
I’ve tried to sketch a timeline, with scenarios in the Palin Tar Baby Mystery: I still don’t know what the ‘cover-up’ was for. But Karl Rove’s fingerprints are all over this one…

I am really surprise to find out that a so call prolife likes to go around killing animals who never did anything to her…. like moose, wolves, polar bears (once they remove them from the endangered species list).
Why do they call themselves prolife? Maybe they meant to say prolie. That would make more sense.

It seems to me that someone who cries out for the life of dogs, cats and convicted felons should not be too upset at those who cry out for the life of an innocent unborn child. The next time you eat something (chicken, beef, pork, apples) ask yourself why you paticipated in having that thing killed so you could live. It would seem to me that because we as humans are given dominion over the earth, we have to make sure that the animal population is not over exagerated so they don’t starve because of the lack of food. Maybe we could start aborting the unborn deer so the deer population would come under control. Does that make you mad? GREAT!

Who cares about her daughter’s pregancy? I didn’t realize her daughter was running for political office…oh, that’s right, she’s not! It appears to me that some people (Democrats perhaps?) are just alittle nervous about this pick for VP - so nervous in fact, they are going to try to use a teenage pregnancy (very uncommon in the USA) to justify why a woman should not be elected…..oh people, why don’t you concentrate on Joe Biden’s good qualities and why he should be elected….oh sorry, too hard of a task? I thought so.

Why is the baby Trig’s name not available in the baby online nursery of Mat-su Regional Medical Center, Palmer, Alaska. The Governor’s office press release in April mentions she has given delivery in that Hospital.

What is Sarah hiding by not putting the name in the hospital records?

Why did Bristol leave school 8 months ago if she is only 5 months pregnant?
September 2nd, 2008 at 11:51 am
oh no - it’s MM all over again…..

This can be easily cleared up. Find a newspaper article in Alaska announcing the pregnancy -

According to Flickr, this photo was taken in 2005. Check it out!

A non-pregnant woman can be made to look 6 or 7 months pregnant. But a fairly thin woman who is 6 to 7 months pregnant unmistakable.
September 1st, 2008 at 11:38 pm
This whole matter could be cleared up with the disclosure of OB gyn records, Was Trig a home birth? Was there a midwife? Hospital? Which one? Doctor? Who?

Also consider if Bristol is now two months pregnant and not five as reported. Then the rumors can be true. The Palins seemed a little too eager to point out that Bristol is five months pregnant. Who says this ca’t be her second child?
September 1st, 2008 at 8:44 pm
So I guess that this announcement by the governor herself about her daughter’s pregnancy is supposed to squelch the rumors. But suppose she did originally did cover for her daughter… what is one more lie, and what if — wonders never cease in this case — it turns out that they later allege that this newly reported pregancy ends up in an alleged miscarriage? If that raises any eyebrows it will be after the election in November anyway, right? For me, if the original rumors are credible, this well-timed “announcement” is not evidence either way. In the original rumor, people at the local health center would have had to have been in cahoots with the Governor — and that could still be the case. I’m not saying the rumors are true, only that this announcement has no bearing whatsoever on their plausibility — unless of course you for some reason believe this new “fact” — but then why would you have believed the initial rumor? On the other hand, if they lied then, they are lying now — and the “beauty” of it (for them) is that the truth of this new revelation is unverifiable, unless Bristol, unlike her mother, is actually showing signs of being pregnant.

Spin the spin if you like. But give the bloggers credit for knowing something did not add up. It was obvious that Bristol was pregnant in the pictures. And the articles and pictures circulating on the web provided a reasonable explanation: Sarah might be covering for your daughter. I looked all weekend for evidence to prove the rumors were false. I did not find the above photo online until early this morning. But guess what? The blogger were right about Bristol. The McCain campaign released a statement today (9/1) that Bristol is 5 months pregnant.

Small minds think alike, their opinon is the only right one. Too bad they don’t want to belive anyone else has a right to see things in different light. The right are always referred to as narrow minded yet the left is much more nrrow minded.

Wow!
Glen Hoddle is a born-again Christian?
Just how many times has he been born again?
