Actually, the timestamp on that photo is incorrect, and Palin doesn’t have any three year olds. Plus, the picture is with her chief of staff, as governor, so there’s no reason to doubt that picture.

Oh and to add to the media confusion:

Not that I want to add fuel to the speculation, but the pic you link to (and there are others from her previous pregnancies) is from 2005. The latest baby was born this year, in 2008. All the recent photography around that period does NOT show the Governor looking remotely as pregnant (not 7 months worth) as she does in other photographs. Thus the surprise to her staff, and the dissonant statement from the flight crew that said, essentially, she didn’t seem to at all be in labor or even slightly uncomfortable for someone whose water had allegedly broken.

Something doesn’t add up.

Want a giggle? No, seriously, do you? I promise I’ll be quiet after this.

Pages 44 and 45. Pay close attention to ‘This is ridiculous’ and ‘Frances’. I think you’ll enjoy it.

Thanks…I think?

It’s also rather disturbing that a *physician*, the family physician, delivered this baby. Granted, we’re talking about someplace as remote as Alaska, yes. But the fact that she traveled fifty miles past the hospital in Anchorage (which has a neo natal unit) to her local clinic, for this *physician* to deliver “her” baby…?

I know some OBGYNs who refer some of their expectant patients to higher-ups in that field, if there’s known to be a heightened risk that may be best in the hands of a true specialist. Sarah Palin’s age ALONE qualified this as a high-risk pregnancy. Throw in the Down’s Syndrome, the lack of cutback to her work schedule, and the flying…Um, would you really want a *physician*, a primary, an MD, handling this?

Yes you would, if you “birthed” in the same small town you have a lot of influence in, that you’re the former Mayor of. The Anchorage hospital has too many people, therefore, too many possible leaks of what really happened. This *physician* is familiar with your family…hell, Sarah, you’ve even written a letter of recommendation for this *physician* who was chosen as some so-and-so of the Year 2002 or something else relatively unimportant, and therefore, things like fake parentage and I will bet the rent on a falsified birth certificate..these things are most likely much easier to score in a tiny clinic through a *physician*.

This is really, really sad. Here’s hoping that she “gracefully” drops out of the race, i.e., McCain and co. pressure her to, and that she disappears back into the tundra.

OOH, Amelia, you’re about to get promoted into the post.

If the baby is Sarah’s, then all of the horrible judgment calls (documented by the press) regarding the flight from Texas, the layover in Seattle, bypassing the well-equipped Anchorage hospital that could cater to a special needs, month-premature child whose mother was leaking amniotic fluid and risking infection for hours and hours…in favor of a small-time clinic in her hometown…this is not a woman who one would use as a poster child for Good Judgment Lady.

If the baby is Bristol’s, and this child was conceived via consentual sex as an accident, this could be a direct result of Sarah Palin’s Anti-Birth Control stance. I’m not saying pack your daughter’s handbag full of condoms, but it’s a very big drop off of one’s high horse when this happens at home, yes?

And if, God Forbid, Bristol was the victim of a sexual assault, and Sarah Palin forced her to carry to term (because as Sarah Palin has said, she is anti-abortion even in cases of rape or incest, and that would apply to her own daughter), then Sarah Palin, as far as I’m concerned, basically raped her daughter a second time, victimizing her to force her to carry the child, and live a lie in the process. In the public eye, no less.

If this turns out to be true, it says one thing to me; something that I suspected all along. The Republicans are scared shitless of losing this election. Like third world dictators, they are scared of the illegalities they left behind and the investigations that will inevitably follow. Therefore, they will do anything to win. My eyes aren’t failing yet, and yes I do think that the Governor does not look pregnant in the hiking story. And, yes, her daughter does look pregnant in the family photograph. I give Ms. Palin less than a month to come clean or withdraw from the presidential race. McCain has shown such poor judgement, he would lose in a landslide. Deservedly, too.

So it’s not completely crazy to be asking these questions. Okay, good.

Also, and this could just be a guy repeating wives’ tales, so you tell me: most fit women I’ve known have shown less on their first pregnancies, but by the third or fourth, have gotten noticeably bigger. By the 5th…and Palin’s face in the pictures where she was supposedly very pregnant…she doesn’t seem to have extra “baby fat” on her face.
