I know i'm a fine one to talk about partisanism, but come on... any legitimate concerns about her are just democrats digging for dirt?

skysidhe · 08-29-2008, 11:48 PM

I think it's hilarious. I mean the guy is 72 so why not go out with style. He dosn't have much to lose.

smoothmoniker · 08-30-2008, 02:19 AM

because Kos thinks so? That's your citation?

Wow.

Ibby · 08-30-2008, 02:45 AM

i'm not sure i buy that.

Archaeologists found a 10,000 year old body near to Cheddar (the so-called Cheddar Man). They were able (I know not how) to do some kind of chromosomal analysis against which they compared the local male population. They found descendants. !0,000 years and still livin' in Cheddar :P

I've been to Cheddar - I don't think they've changed much

Ibby · 08-30-2008, 09:19 AM

non-sequitur much?

(you have no idea how hard it is to spell non-sequitur drunk off your ass. if its still wrong, sorry.)

Ibby · 08-30-2008, 09:21 AM

(whoops, brian posted while i was typing. my comment was to dana. whats the cheddar man got to do with how bad palin is?)

Apparently the speculation about the kid actually being a grandkid, is all based on this photo of her on Super Tuesday, a month before she announced she was 7 months pregnant. Pretty scant, as some women, especially very fit ones, don't show much at 6 months.

There's also family photos with mommy not showing, but her daughter clearly has a baby bump.

She wasn't especially fit, and I've heard of obese women that didn't know they were pregnant until they went into labor.

Here's an interesting thought someone had on a blog...

Food for Thought on the Palin-Baby Story
Jump to Comments

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC): “I don’t know where she’s traveled to…But it’s not meeting people that matters. You know, President Bush met President Putin. And I don’t think it matters just meeting people. You look at people’s judgment.”

If the “official story” about Palin and her baby is true, then I question her judgment.

Her water breaks while she is in Texas. She chooses not to get medical attention, but to stay and give a speech. (Did anyone mop up after her?)

Then she gets on a commercial aircraft for a several-hour flight, without telling the flight attendants that her water had broken earlier that day. (How did she keep her seat dry?)

This was a premature delivery, and she did not seek medical attention for several hours, and endangered her baby by getting on board an aircraft where there would be no emergency facilities available for hours (or she would have forced an emergency landing enroute).

For someone “pro-life” she certainly showed a callous disregard for the health and safety of her baby.

DanaC · 08-31-2008, 02:36 AM

lol. I only just realised my Cheddar comment had gone in the wrong thread!

Griff · 08-31-2008, 08:00 AM

It was more appropriate than a couple recent comments.

classicman · 08-31-2008, 10:07 AM

Radar that blog comment is worthless. Anyone with teenage children knows that pic means NOTHING. That could be a perfectly normal pic of any teen girl. And if it really happened, why isn't the unabashedly liberal media all over it?

Stop propagating more bullshit and stfu.

xoxoxoBruce · 08-31-2008, 01:21 PM

Just out of curiosity, does anyone here know what the VP does, day-to-day?
I don't... a rough idea what the VP's duties are, but not the day-to-day routine. I would imagine it amounts to following an itinerary handed to him/her by the staff, and knowing how to act appropriately in each of those situations as they arise.
