The claim is that the fifth child that Palin claims as her own, is actually her grandson, son of her 16 year old daughter.  I gotta admit, it looks pretty convincing but I'd like to see it confirmed by more mainstream media.

Convincing though it is, McCain's people must have vetted her pretty closely.

Dunno what the fallout will be if it's shown to be true.

Of course, I think it looks worse if it is untrue.  She waited 8 hours to give birth at great risk to her child so she could fly to Alaska from Texas?  Really?  That's just weird.

I don't know any woman who would do that.

   Funny thing is ,if true I have loads more respect for her and the love shown for her daughter in this action...

Yeah, as if she wasn't enough of a wild card, the fallout from the kid (IF true) will be unpredictable.

        The silver lining is that the Obama campaign just might have the decency to completely denounce this attack.  They might want to do that very quickly.

LYING is bad.

If someone LIES about something like this, how can they be trusted about ANYTHING?

That aside, she believes the earth is less than 10,000 years old.

She isn't qualified for a seat on a SCHOOL BOARD!

She makes Dan Quayle look like a genius.

     Please, enlighten us as to Governor Palin's "hypocrisy" should this bit of trash prove true.  I really have no idea what value she claims as her own is betrayed by such a decision.

Aint much of a silver lining rich, a denouncement won't change your vote.

           Nope.  Not after he pussied out on the opportunity at the convention.  It might help a bit if he comes back with some kind of record under his belt in '12, '16 or '20 though.

Status: offline 		IF this is true, the thing that bugs me most is how the article says that Palin forced her daughter into a cover-up.

I'm sorry, but if I got preggo at 16 and my mom said "don't worry honey, I'll raise the kid as one of my own" I would be on my knees thanking God for a second chance at my life instead of having to get a GED and postpone college for 18 years.

Especially since pro-choicers would have encouraged the 16 year old to get an abortion to fix it.

Either way, the left loses on this one.  If it's true, Palin is an exemplary mother who walks the pro-life walk.  If it's not true, they just look petty. The real shame is that I doubt Obama is the one who is behind the rumors, but the backlash will fall on him if they're not true.

Which I normally wouldn't care about, I personally have no problem with people lying to outsiders about their personal affairs, but it is hypocritical for an evangelical who believes in god to violate the ten commandments.
