| Post subject: palin's 17 year old daughter pregnant; plans to marry |
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Palin rebuts rumors, says daughter pregnant
ST. PAUL (Reuters) - The 17-year-old unmarried 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.
Bristol Palin, one of Alaska Gov. Palin's five children with her husband Todd, is about five months pregnant and is going to keep the child and marry the father, according to aides of Republican presidential candidate John McCain.
Bristol Palin made the decision on her own to keep the baby, the aides said.
The Palins, in a statement released by the McCain campaign, said Bristol "came to us with news that we as parents knew would make her grow up faster than we had ever planned" and that their daughter "has our unconditional love and support."
"We ask the media to respect our daughter and Levi's privacy as has always been the tradition of children of candidates," their statement said.
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.
McCain officials said the news of the daughter's pregnancy was being released to rebut what one aide called "mud-slinging and lies" that have circulated on liberal blog sites.
According to these rumors, Sarah Palin had faked a pregnancy and pretended to have given birth in April to her fifth child, a son named Trig who has Down syndrome. The rumor was that Trig was actually Bristol Palin's child and that Sarah Palin was the grandmother.
PRO-LIFE GROUPS OFFER SUPPORT
Palin is staunchly anti-abortion, and pro-life groups welcomed the decision to keep the child.
James Dobson, an influential Christian evangelical conservative, said his Focus on the Family group had always counseled young mothers to see their pregnancies through, "even though there will be of course challenges along the way."
"That is what the Palins are doing, and they should be commended once again for not just talking about their pro-life and pro-family values, but living them out even in the midst of trying circumstances," he said in a statement.
Charmaine Yoest, head of Americans United for Life, said, "We join them in welcoming this new life."
The McCain campaign was outraged by the blog rumors.
"There's no doubt that liberal blogs such as one called www.barackoblogger.com and some in the mainstream media were pushing a false story about Gov. Palin's most recent pregnancy with fervor," said senior McCain adviser Nicolle Wallace.
A senior McCain official said its camp had no evidence that the campaign of Democrat Barack Obama was pushing the story, but said the blog rumors circulating on websites that appeared to support Obama had the effect of being "a real anchor around the Democratic ticket."
OBAMA OFFENDED
Speaking to reporters in Monroe, Michigan, Obama said he was offended by the McCain aide's statement and that he considered people's families off-limits.
"We don't go after people's families. We don't get them involved in the politics. It's not appropriate and it's not relevant. Our people were not involved in any way in this and they will not be. And if I ever thought there was somebody in my campaign that was involved in something like that, they'd be fired," Obama said.
Obama also said: "This shouldn't be part of our politics. It has no relevance to Gov. Palin's performance as a governor or potential performance as a vice president. So I would strongly urge people to back off these kinds of stories."
The news broke as Republicans gathered in St. Paul for their convention to formally nominate McCain and Palin as the party's candidates. Palin is only the second woman picked as a U.S. vice presidential nominee.
In the short period since she was announced last Friday, Palin has helped to energize the Republican Party's conservative base, giving McCain fresh energy going into the campaign for the November 4 election against Obama and his No. 2 Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware.

I am not an Obama fan and I know close to nothing about this Palin, but this is ridiculous. |

Family values? So an unmarried 17 year old girl now classifies as being a family? Interesting. This Bristol girl sounds like a real party, and seems to be doing her best to dethrone mom's Miss Congeniality title. Bless her.
Palin is starting off gangbusters. Implosion inevitable. Abort mission. Abort! |

Ummm, did you actually read the article? They are referring to Palin's daughter being a part of the Palin family regardless of the mistakes she has made. Furthermore, the Palin's are not just preaching their values, but are "practicing what they preach" in their joint decision to support their daughter and her [/b]unborn child in her unfortunate situation.
Either way, (McCain supporter or Obama supporter) I fail to see how this is relevant in the upcoming presidential compaign. Get some new material that [b]is relevant. |

I agree. He definetely handled it with the kind of grace and maturity we should expect from a presidential candidate. I am sure he wishes some of his so called "supporters" would have handled it similarly. |

The fact that she's preaching her pro-life, pro-family values agenda does make it a at least slightly relevant, but you are correct that I need some new material. I'm certain that McPalin and family won't disappoint. |

All this reflects rather well on governor Palin. She is of course not responsible for her daughter behavior, but she acts responsibly when dealing with the results. I dont see what the alternative would be. Or rather, I see it well. The usual abortion that our consumerist society has imposed on us as normal. |

17 year old hs hockey dad just your average articulate american.
a young bush?
he should be a classy addition to the white house.
"On a MySpace page subsequently taken down, Johnston boasts,
"I'm a f*ckin' redneck" who likes to snowboard and ride dirt bikes.
"But I live to play hockey. I like to go camping and hang out with the boys, do some fishing, shoot some s*it and just f*ckin' chillin' I guess."
"Ya f*ck with me I'll kick [your] ass," he added.
He also claims to be "in a relationship," but states, "I don't want kids."

Doesn't the NYT have anything better to write about? I am so sick of all of this ridiculous banter...
Obama used illegal drugs in the 70's - ooh, bad person, and the only politician that has ever used illegal drugs in the 70's right?! Then he must be a druggy now. I bet he is in cahoots with the Columbian drug lords.
His middle name is Hussein so he must be a terrorist. Ofcourse, this makes perfect sense to me!
One of his Democratic supporters "slipped" up and called him Osama...Well, how much more proof do we need? Someone call Guantanamo.
And Biden...well we all know by his ridiculous comments in the news and his many yrs as a politician that he is in fact a racist...(I would list them here, but there are too many)
So now, I will add that Palin is going to take political advise from her soon-to-be 18 year old son in law if the Repubs get elected to the white house. Do you think they will communicate thru myspace? I am outraged as I prefer facebook.

I'm confused. Thought her name was Bristol.
I bet he gets along well with Dad though, and his attitude leads me to believe that he's absolutely commited to this marriage 100 %. Poor Bristol. A shame that Ma and Pa Palin's archaic views on pre-marital sex are straight out of Ozzie and Harriet land. Seems like following the advice of the brilliant Nancy Reagan and her "Just Say No" method backfired this time. Who'd of thunk? |

I guess the whole thing is part of a scenario, set up by the McCain'ers.
The more the democrats blame Palin, the more attention for the Palingate in the media, the more they are bashing, the more McCain/Palin will play the role of underdogs, the more people will finally sympathize with McCain/Palin.
Remember how after all, the public sympathised with Clinton, many months after he stained Lewinsky's dress. It's all a matter of proper timing. |

I dont know about the US public, but I have always sympathized with Clinton since I heard of the Lewinsky affair. I mean, I also have trainees here. |

Definately slipped one past the goalie. Or maybe it was an Eskimo nose job. |
