Sarah Palin

This is a very personal position that one can not challenge. You either believe a woman has a right to decide what happens within her own body or you feel she doesn't.

Her stance on this social issue is a clear indication of her conservative beliefs. She obviously practices her position being the mother of a child with down syndrome, a job unto itself.

Just adding to the many questions surrounding the Palin decision, it has been confirmed that Bristol Palin, the alleged mother of "Trig" Palin, is currently pregnant.

Apparently her mother's "Abstinence Only" position does not apply to her own children.

Did the Mccain Campaign Vet Sarah Palin for more than 5 minutes?

Sarah Palin released this information to calm rumors regarding her own recent pregnancy and the theory that Bristol was actually the mother.

Hurricane Gustav is certainly taking the press away from this and the Republicans are using the hurricane as an excuse to avoid any spotlights.

It has been announced by the Governess herself that her daughter Bristol is in fact Pregnant.

Keeping with fairness, I have removed the rumours post regarding Sarah Palin feigning pregnancy.

This is a point that will not go away and unfortunately the daughter will be the one who is hurt the most by it.

She is said to be marrying the father of the child who, until it was taken down, said on his Myspace.com page that he did not want children.

As far as I am concerned the daughter is not the issue, nor the boyfriend. It is the misjudgements of Sarah Palin.

• Allowing a 17yr to get married is ridiculous. The couple is barely old enough to fully understand love, let alone raise a family together. Give it time and see what happens, make a committment to raise the child together regardless of the marriage.


• Sarah Palin boarded a flight to Alaska after her water broke in Dallas, Tx, knowing full well that late term pregnant women are not even supposed to fly.


• Sarah Palin has also accepted the VP nomination when she has a small child with down syndrome who is in most need of her constant care and her family is in the middle of a flurry over the unplanned pregnancy.

I can understand finishing out her term as Governor because she was elected to that position and owes it to the people of Alaska. To accept the possibility that you could become VP of the US seems to suggest Sarah Palin's mind is on her own ambitions and not her family values.

Here are some links to various news and blog coverage of the different "Palin Pregnancy Scandal" rumours:

• Fox News Story


• The Wall Street Journal regarding her choice to fly when in labor


• Some Photos


• Photo of the Pregnant Governor giving a speech


• A video of Sarah Palin during her 7 - 8 month of pregnacy


• The response from the host in the video

Palin could not sell the Jet on Ebay and ended up selling it at a loss to a third party.

The effort and concept was good, but she needs to stop stretching the truth.

Although she admits to having "gay" friends. She is opposed to their having the same rights as straight couples.

She does feel that "gays and lesbians" should not be discriminated against.
