[impeachedrapist]

That didn’t take long.

[pissant]

Helluva job vetting there, McCain. LOL

[GoDuke]

So?

[vladimir998]

I just heard thi son the radio. Still, the leftists wackos were wrong.

[Psycho_Bunny]

Wow....who cares?

[vladimir998]

Exactly.

What does this really change? Nothing.

[Bosco]

What would Obama do?

[italianquaker]

The daughter is going to marry the father of the baby.

[jrooney]

Big deal. Millions of kids get pregnant every year. A parent can not control everything a child does when the child is not in their presence.

[vladimir998]

At least this baby isn’t going to be aborted like Obama said he would do to his grandchildren.

[jokyfo]

Interesting and irrelevant.

[shadeaud]

Just heard that on the radio with a remark that this should put to rest the rumors that her baby wasn’t really hers. Scum media gets shot down again.

[Domandred]

Bad news is that 17-year old is pregnant. Good news is that would have made it impossible for her to be the mother of Trig.

ST. PAUL -- The 17-year-old daughter of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is pregnant, Palin said on Monday in an announcement intended to knock down rumors by liberal bloggers that Palin faked her own pregnancy to cover up for her child.

"Our beautiful daughter Bristol came to us with news that as parents we knew would make her grow up faster than we had ever planned. As Bristol faces the responsibilities of adulthood, she knows she has our unconditional love and support," the Palins said.

[HerrBlucher]

No ruh roh, just life. This ends the idiotic rumors her daughter bore Trig and Sarah faked her pregnancy.

[GOPGuide]

“What would Obama do?”

Abort?

[John W]

“Senior McCain campaign officials said McCain knew of the daughter’s pregnancy when he selected Palin last week as his vice presidential running mate, deciding that it did not disqualify the 44-year-old governor in any way.”

[Bryan24]

Nothing? No, it is important. Let’s see how she handles it.

[newzjunkey]

Another story says McCain knew.

[rawhide]

Actually, if you read the article, McCain knew about before he chose her. But decided it would not affect his decision to choose Palin.

[lonevoice]

If this is true, the MSM is going to crucify that poor child, not to mention what they’re going to do to Governor Palin. How sad for this family.

[television is just wrong]

but, she the mother of the down syndrome baby is NOT her daughter.

[GoDuke]

It means her daughter will not be able to fulfill her duties as second daughter. Without those duties being fulfilled, down goes the republic. /s

[deport]

Grand child for the White House......

[jrooney]

Palin is still a great candidate. Far better than anything on the democratic ticket.

[KayEyeDoubleDee]

Good for Bristol.

And I hope she has 10 or 15 more babies after this one.

[MichiganConservative]

Who cares? It will matter what she chooses to do. I think this used to be much more prevalent than it is today. Today people can pretend it doesn’t happen with a paid-in-cash abortion and then they don’t have to talk about it at the country club.

[BallyBill]

Great, just when I thought I could go a few minutes without a story about her.

[TruthWillWin]

Senior McCain campaign officials said McCain knew of the daughter's pregnancy when he selected Palin last week as his vice presidential running mate, deciding that it did not disqualify the 44-year-old governor in any way.

He knew.

[verity]

According to the article, McCain was aware!

[pissant]

How is that? Trig was born in april. Ample time for her to get knocked up again. HOWEVER, that is a BS smear, regardless. Palin was waddling around ALaska for months with trig in belly.

[BRL]

So?

Actually, this is not a good thing. It is a statement that some of those familly values that Sarah is advancing could not even be passed along to her own kid.

I still like Palin, but, if true, this is not good.

[NittanyLion]

If this is true, the MSM is going to crucify that poor child, not to mention what they’re going to do to Governor Palin. How sad for this family.

Nonsense. They may try briefly, but they'll soon learn that they're causing a backlash that runs counter to their goals (to elect Obama).

[woofie]

It says he knew..heck in most of these political families something is going on with the kids ...hard to avoid

[vladimir998]

So far she is handling it well - obviously.

[freespirited]

So much for Bristol being the father of baby Trig. He was born in April and she’s currently five months pregnant.

Math doesn’t look good for the Kos creeps.

[KeyLargo]

Obama and the libs would have aborted the child and it would be a non-story for them.

If the story is true, it just shows the Palins experiencing some of the same issues that many families, (voters) face today.

[fkabuckeyesrule]

I'm surprised they did not keep this under wraps till the weekend before the election.

For all those interested. Rush Limbaugh is replaying his 20th anniversary show today starting at 12 Noon EST. Just started.

[pissant]

At least her son is not a left wing ballet dancer

[CARTOUCHE]

A bit of a shock on the face of it but on reflection I’d say it’ll have little effect on the base’s support. McCain and his team knew before the pick and went with Sarah anyway. Nothing to see here, move along.

[goldstategop]

Parents can only do so much. They can't prevent a child from making a life altering mistake. The Palins to their credit, didn't take the easy way out with their daughter.

[Artemis Webb]

rut roe?

Exactly what problem does this cause for Sarah Palin?

Grow up.

[KayEyeDoubleDee]

What would Obama do?

if they make a mistake, I don't want them PUNISHED with a baby

[deport]

Helluva job vetting there, McCain. LOL

---

Are you assuming McCain didn’t know? I bet he did know assuming Palin knew at the time of vetting that her daughter was pregnant.

[MuttTheHoople]

It happens. It doesn’t take away the fact that Sarah Palin was a brilliant choice as VP. If anything, it may make the ticket more palatable to many.

[trublu]

Actually, this is not a good thing. It is a statement that some of those familly values that Sarah is advancing could not even be passed along to her own kid. I'm certain she did try to pass on those values. Kids do the darnedest things.

[HerrBlucher]

Helluva job vetting there, McCain. LOL

Your assuming McCain didn't know this, I would be that he did. Its a non-issue anyway.

[A. Morgan]

BINGO!
NoObama, “I don’t want my daughter punished with a baby”.

[indylindy]

We are off and running.
