Okay, its Sarah's baby, let's "give" her that because then its more damning.

I think that if anyone wants to use the pregnancy against Palin, we need to accept that it is hers unless and until we can prove otherwise. Less focus on the facts that we do have proof of. . . her behavior from water breaking to delivery. Am I the only one who sees how damning that behavior is? It means she is incapable of making decisions about the welfare of anyone. Even it is was her baby, the evidence supports stupidity, carelessness, self-absorb-sion, inability to recognize to obvious responses for the security of her baby (but we're going to trust her with the nation, the world?). Her actions are either the actions of a complete moron (given her age and experience) or she was hiding something. There are no other choices. Let's give her her choice, and wring her neck with it.

I just can't help thinking about her water squishing out of her on the plane with every adjustment in her seat. The obvious wet spot she left on her ass on every place sat from the moment of breakage.

BTW, I would really like to know her labor history.... At her 5th it should have been her quickest delivery...

life-threatening complications at birth, like heart defects. And like I said in another post, by my fourth delivery, it took an hour and a half to start the induction of my labor and deliver my nine pound son and get back in my room. That doesn't happen every time, but there is a possibility that it can after you have multiple births. Plus over 36 yo, a woman is considered high-risk for complications.

That story is BS. They think people are so stupid that they aren't going to question it-that makes me furious. No doctor would have approved this eight hour flight, for malpractice reasons if nothing else.

which say she is a monster;

then watch her admit its her daughter's baby pretty quick.

politically, anyway.

Who cares how she behaved pre-delivery? No one, that's who. The baby was born as a "normal" Down's Syndrome baby, so whatever Palin did must've, by definition, been okay. Not that it's any of my business.

If she's not the mother...where's your proof? When talking about parentage of a child, the uppermost concern of yours is the child, right? Of course it is.

an issue regarding her ability to judge a situation and take approriate actions. If she can't choose better than that for her child, how can we trust her with a nation?

was at the convention, completed her speech, boarded a plane for an 8+ hour flight to Alaska, then drove another 45 minutes to the hospital after her water broke. I'm sorry when I google, I get a bunch of posts from here, so I'm sure you'll find one.

After her water broke, on the day of Trig's delivery, Palin delivered a keynote address in Texas and then flew 8 hours to Alaska.<111> Palin returned to office quickly, just three days after delivering Trig.<26><112> The baby has Down syndrome; Palin's decision to have the baby was applauded by the pro-life community.

about it. hopefully dissect it. leaving a bad taste for the voters. more of the same of the arrogance in getting away with everything and no repercussions

maybe it will delve into her strict fundament dominion religion and what it does in family, choices made

who knows. but there is opportunity

she shouldn't be in a position to make decisions for nation.

but i can see carville sitting htere and they say something about being a good mom and him using it. something like that

if she was indeed the one having the baby.

the baby was hers and she took that flight when she knew she was leaking i think is more a world of hurt for her. that is totally disgusting. and i do not know a single mother that can eve grasp the idea this woman would go from 4 a.m. in the morning and put baby at risk exhausting her body (that is a huge deal for preg woman) flying into anchorage not going to hospital, but didnt she jump on a little plane to go to her small home town? that is important too....

as a woman that water broke and one child leakage, .... it is beyond what i can imagine

for me that is a much worse scenerio

the other i see her so selfish that she throws her own daughter under bus for the vp

damning than if it was her daughter's baby. Hit her with well recorded facts and use her claim to take her down.

it was neat. just use her words. what is so need at being totally irresponsible. and it is fact. it is in her printed words

yup

on edit: i am so sleepy. off the board i go. not even follow conversations well. sorry that was so hard for you

For chrissakes show some friggin RESPECT will ya?





















:sarcasm:

Just like all risky behavior during pregnancy is considered stupid. If you witnessed a pregnant woman smoking or drinking, wouldn't you question her judgment?

Ignoring the fact that your amniotic fluid is leaking one month before the due date in a high risk pregnancy and then electing to go to an airport instead of a hospital means you're an idiot. For the sake of the baby, I hope Palin is lying.

you think should be good behavior patterns for a pregnant woman?

You're going up the WRONG alley on this one.

Palin was an idiot.

BTW, where did I say I thought her actions were political?

when your water has broken, for an 11 hour flight, bypassing the Anchorage NICU, when you have a high-risk pregnancy and a fetus with known genetic defects, to go deliver in a rural hospital -- is nuts by any measure.

She's got a screw loose, no doubt about it.

Not cool.

(1) to avoid the negative publicity related to her daughter becoming pregnant, especially if Palin has advocated abstinence-only education; and/or,
(2) to boost her anti-abortion credentials, bringing a Down Syndrome baby to term, making her a hero in the movement.

Aside from the political aspects, I couldn't care whose baby it is.
