I did not know that premature birth could cause a genetic problem.

“If people said these things about my wife, I would be emotionally tortured to the 9th degree.”

Bless you, my FRiend. That’s why politics is truly not for the faint-hearted (not that I mean you are, but you know what I mean?) I wish you and your wife all the best with your coming blessed event(s)!!!

“The fact remains that Hannity is the ONLY on in MSM that tries to expose Obama- and he hits him hard EVERY night”

Rush may disagree.

“If it were not for him the general pubic...”

Again, the NASCAR women.....

“Hannity ain’t a “newscaster”.

He’s never claimed to be one!!! However, fox news channel DOES have many good News shows in the course of the day. Brit Hume’s is especially good - He IS and has been, a very respected journalist for decades.

Does Alan not have better things to write about? I mean, how exactly is this relevant to Palin's selection as McCain's running mate?

I hope to God that Sean rips him a new one on Monday!

Hey, it’s the Party of Death’s theme...

They don’t give a sh*t about the person, so long as it makes them and the Party look good.

Exactly. It’s the party of death only when it comes to humans. Just wait for PETA and the rest to pounce on Palin for her hunting and the souvenirs of these excursions displayed in her home and office.

Not my claim.

ok, gotcha now. well, although that poster used an incorrect term describing hannity, he/she WAS very correct in crediting him as relentlessly (for over a year now, I believe) exposing Obama to the public - he’s been the lone voice in this, and it means a LOT.

If Sean can boot Colmes from FNC he should do so immediately...What Colmes ultimately did is make a judgment about Sarah’s child which was totally uncalled for—it would be like taking a cheap shot at a President’s child, or another presidential candidates offspring...

What Colmes did was take a cheap shot, below the belt, no holds barred, no shred of decency when he uttered those mean and hateful words...Wish Sarah Palin was there—would love to see her slap him one right on the kisser...Better yet would have liked to see Sean Hannity deck him right then and there then fire the sorry bum.

So now the liberals don't trust an adult woman and her doctor to make her own decisions on giving birth to her child...something she had done 4 more times than Alan Colmes. But liberals insist that a minor child should be able to make a decision to get an abortion without notifying her parents. Guess the Democrats still don't trust anyone over 30.

Congratulations to you and your wife on the impending twins! Our twins arrived 17 months ago, and it has been the time of our lives ever since. You’re in for a wild ride! :)

“Early Thursday — she thinks it was around 4 a.m. Texas time — she consulted with her doctor, family physician Cathy Baldwin-Johnson, who is based in the Valley and has delivered lots of babies, including Piper, Palin’s 7-year-old.

Palin said she felt fine but had leaked amniotic fluid and also felt some contractions that seemed different from the false labor she had been having for months.

“I said I am going to stay for the day. I have a speech I was determined to give,” Palin said. She gave the luncheon keynote address for the energy conference.

Palin kept in close contact with Baldwin-Johnson. The contractions slowed to one or two an hour, “which is not active labor,” the doctor said.

“Things were already settling down when she talked to me,” Baldwin-Johnson said. Palin did not ask for a medical OK to fly, the doctor said.

“I don’t think it was unreasonable for her to continue to travel back,” Baldwin-Johnson said.

So the Palins flew on Alaska Airlines from Dallas to Anchorage, stopping in Seattle and checking with the doctor along the way.

“I am not a glutton for pain and punishment. I would have never wanted to travel had I been fully engaged in labor,” Palin said. After four kids, the governor said, she knew what labor felt like, and she wasn’t in labor.

Still, a Sacramento, Calif., obstetrician who is active in the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, said when a pregnant woman’s water breaks, she should go right to the hospital because of the risk of infection. That’s true even if the amniotic fluid simply leaks out, said Dr. Laurie Gregg.

“To us, leaking and broken, we are talking the same thing. We are talking doctor-speak,” Gregg said.

Some airlines have policies against pregnant women onboard during the last four weeks of pregnancy, and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists advises against flying after 36 weeks.

This was going to be Palin’s last flight anyway, her doctor said.

Alaska Airlines has no such rule and leaves the decision to the woman and her doctor, said spokeswoman Caroline Boren. Palin was very pleasant to the gate agents and flight attendants, as always, Boren said.

“The stage of her pregnancy was not apparent by observation. She did not show any signs of distress,” Boren said.

Palin never got big with this pregnancy. She said she didn’t try to hide it but didn’t feel a need to alert the airline, either.

They landed in Anchorage around 10:30 p.m. Thursday and an hour later were at the Mat-Su Regional Medical Center in Wasilla.

Baldwin-Johnson said she had to induce labor, and the baby didn’t come until 6:30 a.m. Friday.

“It was smooth. It was relatively easy,” Palin said. “In fact it was the easiest of all,” probably because Trig was small, at 6 pounds, 2 ounces.

Palin said she wanted him born in Alaska but wouldn’t have risked anyone’s health to make that happen.

“You can’t have a fish picker from Texas,” said Todd.”

This is news to me. My water broke many hours before I went into labor. The doctor told me to wait and see if my labor started before going to the hospital. The only thing he told me was not to take a shower or bath.

Rush called this one on the liberals. It took one day
for that pathetic spinmeister to attack Palin’s
choice to have her baby.

Colmes is either ignorant or mean.

I long ago stopped watching Hannity because of Colmes
absurd reasoning.

The woman has had five pregnancies and deliveries....I think she knows what to do when the water breaks...Once the water breaks it’s not like a high speed run to the doctor’s office.

When we learned Palin was the VP choice, I said to my husband, I bet some idiot was going to make an Al Gore “missing a chromosome” comment concerning Palin’s son.

Little did I realize it would be so quick. If Colmes had removed his head from his rear for 10 seconds, he'd would have learned Down’s is from conception. Not stress, not from “poor prenatal care” or any other sick twisted tale Alan and Friends are using to smear her.

But why allow facts get in the way of thrashing a lovely Lady and soon to be the first female Vice President?
