Sarah Palin’s Daughter Pregnant
One thing that drives me nuts about liberals is that they have complained up and down about Karl Rove’s tactics during the Bush Administration as if he is some crazy magic man, a modern day Rasputin, that keeps his bosses in power by manipulating the process.
But then they hypocritically use the same tactics themselves and fail miserably. Sorry, Dailykos, MSNBC, and Ms. Huffington, you are NOT Karl Rove.
The latest example of these tactics backfiring is the entirely fabricated rumor being spread by the socialists at Dailykos that Sarah Palin’s 4 month old Downs Syndrome baby is in fact her grandbaby, and that she is covering for her daughter.
They got a surprise today when the Palin family released a statement that their daughter is in fact 5 months pregnant! That proves that the fabricated lies by Dailykos and the far-left are false, just like the NYT’s assertions that McCain had an affair with a lobbyist fell on its face. Palin’s daughter is engaged and will be married soon. The left has made light of a situation that many American family’s find themselves in. Indeed, Palin’s daughter’s pregnancy was no secret in Alaska. Personally, I think that this fact makes Gov. Palin more relatable to American voters. McCain also knew of this fact during the vetting and did not believe it affected her performance in any way.
Barack Obama agrees.
This really disgusts me. The same thing happened in the 2000 South Carolina primary when rumors were spread that John McCain’s adopted daughter from India was a love child he had with an African American mistress. George W. Bush’s campaign denied any connection to the rumors, but let’s get real folks. The same people at Dailykos spreading this crap are the same people who are footsoldiers in Barack Obama’s campaign.
Bloggers have largely been responsible for the choice of Sarah Palin as McCain’s VP as well as some of these terribly conceived scandals. As newly minted members of the media, bloggers MUST maintain some semblance journalistic integrity or else we will only have succeeded in denigrating public debate instead of enhacing it. Join me in condemning these rumors and promoting ethics in blogging.
Great article and great choice for VP!
May Your Glass Always Be Half Full
The bad news: Bristol Palin is pregnant.
The GOOD NEWS: It was an immaculate conception!
Should play right into the hands of the Evangelicals, aye?!
The baby’s name will be Gustav.
They weren’t sure if the “young man” was going to marry her, but Bush sent Dick Cheney over with a shotgun, just for a little “talk.”
