[Edit35]

all the noise around Palin selection is starting to hurt.

The pregnancy of Palin's daughter is gonna hurt McCain ticket..... simply because a teen pregnancy goes against everything the Republican Party stands for.

And I love Sarah Palin, and identify with her family life because it mirrors things which happened to my family.

But now I read in the local newspaper today (Tuesday) that Sarah's husband Todd recently had a DUI.

Not sure if that's true, but it's just one more thing that will ruin her reputation as a model citizen....

And after all, these Presidential campaigns are as much about atmospherics as they are about actual accomplishments.

Why the hell was Todd Palin drinking and driving, (if that is true).

By time someone has five kids, is pushing 50, and is a responsible adult, they know enough to not get behind the wheel if they've had too many.

I don't mind saying I'm disgusted.

Todd recently had a DUI.

When did it happen?

[KavMan]

How is her husband’s DUI when he was in his 20’s going to affect anyone? Boggles my mind...lol

Then the local paper is lying and you should submit a letter of rebuttal to the editor. He was 22 years old when he got the DWI.

If you consider in the 1980s when he was 22 "recent," the early 1990s must seem like yesterday... ;)

[italianquaker]

I guess you didnt notice that the DUI was 22 years ago?

Which local paper?

I can only find reference to his DUI in 86.

[Fabozz]

Relax. Todd Palin’s DUI was in 1986. By North Slope roughneck standards, a single 22-year-old DUI makes him Carrie Nation.

Dear Edit35,

“I don't mind saying I'm disgusted.”

The only person with whom you should be disgusted is yourself.

“By time someone has five kids, is pushing 50, and is a responsible adult, they know enough to not get behind the wheel if they've had too many.”

Mr. Palin isn't quite pushing 50 - he's 43.

However, Mr. Palin didn't recently get a DUI.

Mr. Palin’s DUI came in 1986 when he was 22 years old.

Crawl back under your rock.

"But now I read in the local newspaper today (Tuesday) that Sarah's husband Todd recently had a DUI."

You call 1986, when he was 22 years old, "recently"?

[moose2004]

The DUI was 20 years ago before any of his kids were born.

[TonyInOhio]

I don't mind saying I'm disgusted.

You're also ill-informed. That DUI happened in 1986.

Stop believing what the media is spoon-feeding you.

Sarah's husband Todd recently had a DUI.

Learn to read beyond the headline. The DUI was 22 years ago.

[sox_the_cat]

DUI was around 1986 when he was about 21. You’re going to consider something that happened 22 years ago?

[DouglasKC]

But now I read in the local newspaper today (Tuesday) that Sarah's husband Todd recently had a DUI.

22 years ago is not recently.

[listenhillary]

Would you survive your own scrutiny of a “model citizen”?

[pgkdan]

But now I read in the local newspaper today (Tuesday) that Sarah's husband Todd recently had a DUI.

1986 or 1988 when he was 22 years old is not exactly reecent is it?

Get your sh*t together and post facts or don't post at all. We're getting enough agitprop from the MSM. Your contributions to their efforts are MOST unwelcome.

[Dave W]

I don't mind saying that you disgust me. It is people like you who stay ill informed that alarm other people because you have no confidence and spread half facts.

Her husband had the DUI when he was 22. Would you mind understanding the full facts before you spout off. You sound like a lemming.

The pregnancy and DUI was known by the McCain team before he chose her.

Oh my goodness, did you know there was a fishing violation in their past? Oh no, gasp, this can't be.

[bioprof]

Ummmm....you read that Todd Palin “RECENTLY” had a DUI. News Flash.....it was 22 YEARS AGO!!!!!! Can we do a fine tooth comb analysis on what Obama was doing 22 years ago????? Get your facts straight before you start to hurl crap like this around.

[RetiredArmy]

But now I read in the local newspaper today (Tuesday) that Sarah's husband Todd recently had a DUI.

How RECENT was it? I saw something yesterday that said 1987. Not is not exactly recent.

[HIDEK6]

Todd recently had a DUI.

Recently?

You must be a troll.

A person who is not running for office, was not even married, was 20 years old, got a citation 22 years ago?
