OlderSarah Palin Didn’t Give Birth To Down Syndrome Baby?
On Friday, it was announced that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin was chosen to be Republican presidential nominee John McCain’s running mate. The 44-year-old Idaho-native claimed to be the mother of five children, the youngest of whom was diagnosed with Down Syndrome. Palin’s decision to have the baby was applauded by the pro-life community.
Here’s some new evidence Daily Kos has brought forward, showing Sarah Palin is not the mother of four-month-old Trig:
– On March 6th, Sarah announced she’s seven month pregnant. Even close members of her staff were surprised.
– Her water broke one month before Trig was due, but she kept a previous speaking engagement in Texas and then flew 8 hours to Alaska. No one on board noticed that Sarah was going into labor either. The flight lands in Anchorage, Alaska. Instead of visiting a medical facility that can accommodate a premature birth in Alaska’s most equipped city, she drives 45 minutes away to Mat-Su Regional Medical Center, right outside the small village she used to govern as Mayor, Wasilla.
– On April 18, 2008, Trig was born one month premature. Sarah returned to work after three days. (Trig was diagnosed with Down syndrome while still in the womb.)
– Trig is not Sarah’s son, but grandson. It was her 16-year-old daughter Bristol (pictured right) who was carrying. (80% of the cases of Down Syndrome are in mothers under the age of 35.)
– Family had taken Bristol out of Anchorage High School due to contracting “infectious mononucleosis”. Reports say she was absent from school for five to eight months. Mono can last anywhere from two weeks to three months.

Methinks Diddy has enough ammo for another verbal lashing in vlog #17! (Watch #16 here.)
UPDATE 1: The Associated Press has released an undated photo of a pregnant Palin, probably with her first child. And for kicks, this photo manip is so clever! This scandal is just calling out for Tina Fey to return to SNL to spoof all of this.
UPDATE 2: DailyKos posted a picture of Palin with what appears to be a baby bump. Check it out here.

Palin probably did a monica act in the VP vetting and Mc Cain probably had no choice but to offer her he Job…
Another pregnant pic

so what?
she protected her daughter.
I have 2 questions. Why isn’t Trig white? Why is his color different from the rest of the family? Could it be that his father is of different color?
Why isn’t there an off icial response to these rumours yet?
“so what? she protected her daughter.”
There is a huge difference between protecting ones loved ones and lying to the voters. Part of her appeal is that she is now an inspiration for many of people McCain wants to get their votes. To be inspired by a story and to find out that it is not true is never “So what?” The story is most likely untrue.
Even if there are parts of this story that are inconsistent, somethings really have me scratching my head. Like someone pointed out, the daughter holds the child like she is the mother and Sarah holds him like she is the grand mother. When you google Trig Palin, his complexion looks a bit darkker than his parents.
Most imprtantly, why haven’t we had a strong denial at this stage? This story has been around for more than 24 hours. It is potentially damaging. You would thing the republicans would be moving quickly to quash it.
The preg pic from years ago seems to be of another woman, with Palin on the left (why her family thought this was a cool pic of her to send out, I don’t know, but it’s not hard to believe her elderly parents thought that was their own daughter since I believe the two are cousins—she is the current mayor of Wasilla).
But aside from all the images, facts remain: NO pictures of Palin taken AFTER her surprise announcement that do show her pregnant prove that she was. If you were faking a pregnancy, you would obviously fake it after the announcement.
And no images, not of her or of Bristol, have anything to do with the bizarre chain of events:
announcing in your 7th month (? why ?)
total shock recorded by all her closest associates, including her staff
flying in your 8th month
staying around to do a speech and not seeking treatment after amniotic fluid leaked
flying BACK to Alaska with a stop in Seattle after the fluid leaked
driving to her smaller hometown hospital to give birth
suddenly, she doesn’t have to give birth so urgently after all, so labor is induced
no announcement in the hospital’s list of babies
rampant rumors in Alaska about this birth that far pre-date her selection by McCain
Face it: There is a genuine mystery here, either of a faked pregnancy or of a crazy decision-maker. Either would have been caught by McCain’s vetters…except she was not formally vetted.
This was a crack-pot, last-second, shoot-for-the-moon decision.
Once voters simmer down about her gender and focus on the issues, as they do after Labor Day in every presidential election, she is toast. Baby or no baby.
Because a CLEAR majority of this country is pro-choice, and I’m willing to bet most sensible voters will panic at the thought of this small-town mayor turned small-state (population-wise) governor as commander in chief if McCain—already shown to be reckless—passes away.

Haha~Brad Pitt the father, next thing you’ll be saying is it’s an alien baby implanted by black ops or hey, it’s George Clooney’s or Wentworth Miller’s baby~a Prison Break baby haha.
Wouldn’t that be special?
wow the drama.
You guys are missing the point!! IF it is true, this has seriously damaged her character and political platform. For someone who is extremely pro-life, anti-birth control, and says abstinence is the ONLY way. Which we all know is unrealistic..teens are going to do what they are going to do no matter how much u preach to them…so what exactly do these pro-lifers expect to happen to all those babies?? Not everyone has a mother that can or will take the baby in and cover it up like it never happened. Her policies are proving that it will take us back to the dark ages! Wake Up people! Having someone like Palin in office will set women back 1000 yrs.
IF the story is true…she is a liar, committed fraud, and cant even stand by her own convictions! Disgusting!
I was on the fence before but now Im for the Dems.
Also, do you realize if this is true..she committed insurance fraud by claiming the baby as her own. Had officials lie on the birth certificate and so much more. There is no way this woman should be one heartbeat away from the presidency.
Another point, for all u idiots who say if the daughter gave birth why did the mother go into labor. She obviously was faking the whole thing! No mother is her right mind would have her water break, and then hop aboard a flight for 10 hrs when it is a high risk pregnancy, and your fifth child. She couldve had the “baby” at any time and put his life in extreme danger without being near a level 1nicu. The only explanation that makes sense is that she was never pregnant. She heard the daughter went into labor and THATS why she rushed home.
I agree, this woman should not be VP. I am truly angered that she wo uld put her daughter through such misery. This family surely needs some counseling now and more. Can you even imagine being 16 and having to hide this, cover it up…not a healthy scenario.
Shame on Sarah if this is true. Get your **** together for your daughter’s sake.
DNA testing is needed NOW!
I will definitely NOT vote for her!
Yes, another fraud in Washington
*Sigh*
How beautiful Sarah is! Both inside and outside. All America should be proud of her.
McCain is indeed lucky to have her VP. Wise choice!

LYING is what’s wrong with that, do you want this woman to be our president once McCain is gone???
This woman who will cover things up for us, and never tell us the truth about situations. (and brush up everything under the carpet)
Come on people, wake up, it’s clear that she should not be our VP, not now and not ever.
——————-
Oh, yes, and Obama is the pinnacle of honesty. *rolling eyes* PLEASE. That’s the pot calling the kettle black if I’ve ever seen it done. If he wants to point fingers about LYING, he has 4 more fingers pointing right back at himself.
This is such a load of crap. They are grasping at straws and coming up short.
McCain ‘08 - Because OLD is still better than STUPID.
If this is all true, no matter what the reason is behind her covering up her daughter’s unwanted pregnancy, it makes her the wrong person to lead our country when we are trying to rebuild our leadership position in the world. While we have so many more qualified and experienced women out there who can do the job without drama. She is ruining all the future chances for any woman who will qualify to run our country. IMHO She wants her 15 minutes of fame so bad that she didn’t care about exposing her daughter’s unfortunate life event. Does she think that nobody will find her dirty laundry? She has no common sense and do we want someone like that who might be just a heartbeat away to become the President of USA???
I wouldn’t put it past this shrill dumb ***** to do something like that. To bad we can’t excommunicate her from womanhood.
LOLOLOL at all the angry moms reading this and being upset.
no one in life is perfect…not obama, viden, kennedy, mccain, bush, or anyone of you, including jared…yes, she is running for public office, so what? look at all the “stuff” in the lives of ALL political people, could scare you to death… she just might be the “thing” this sad society needs…all the “dirt” sells, our society always believes the worst in people and a lot of good is overlooked…sad…
