    According to the Official Story, Trig Palin was born at Mat-Su Regional Hospital in Palmer on April 18, 2008.

    I realize that the case is supposedly closed on Trig's parentage. But there still is something odd about that flight back from Texas, etc. and even stranger is the following fact:


    Apparently someone forgot to tell the officials at the hospital of the child's birth because there is no entry at their web site for that date. Check it out before they take down the page:

    It's weird that no one has noticed this discrepancy....

    Ummm...lots blogs have been talking about it.
  • aquarius2 · 1 year ago
    It was and is a strange fact that Palin (she stated her water broke) in active labor with a KNOWN impaired fetus would fly 8 hours back to Alaska .After your first birth the birthing process is faster. See, I just don't get how a woman about to have her FIFTH baby hops on a commercial airline and flies 8 hours. This is the part of the story that just doesn't make sense.

    Where is Sarah Palin's FLAG PIN? Oh, is that IT? That little BLUE flag pin? She is wearing an ALASKA FLAG PIN? Oh my God, she must be a member of the Alaska Independent Party and wanting Alaska to SECEDE from the United States. I guess she is one of those nuts who feels its fair to siphon off BILLIONS of American tax dollars and then THINK they should be able to secede with all the oil. Boy, that is REPUBLICAN thinking at its finest.
  • Bush_Bites · 1 year ago
    A commenter on HuffPo made a good point.

    Palin went after some Repubs in Alaska not because she was a "reformer," but because she's not a Repub at all.

    She's the Alaska Independence Party's Manchurian Candidate.
  • Bush_Bites · 1 year ago
    Lieberputz is going to the join the Alaska Independence Party next.

    There are some deeply troubled liberal women on the view today.
  • aquarius2 · 1 year ago
    How are they troubled?
  • nicho · 1 year ago
    They told Busboy to put Mr. Softy back in his pants when he flashed them.
  • Busboy · 1 year ago
    They looked like they'd lost their best friend. They wanted to attack Sarah, but really held back (I didn't watch the entire show). I think they're smarting because Hillary got bounced but Sarah breezed in.

    Here is a link to the committees that Joe Lieberman chairs or is a member of in this Congress. Harry Reid ought to remove this man from any position of power. Lieberman may have "connections" but damn the connections.

    Joe Lieberman=Zell Miller

    As chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs committee, he's been holding up any investigation into Katrina--despite a promise to investigate Katrina when he ran as a Connecticut for Liebermanite..

    I'll be glad when that roadblock to truth is finally removed.
  • An_American_Karol · 1 year ago
    Mr. Isreal first is going to find he made a deal with the devil. Neither party will accept him come January, and he will be a marginalized has been.
    Lieberman turned his back on his American values to pursue his foreign 'interests".
  • lark83 · 1 year ago
    I couldn't agree more. Lieberman doesn't belong in either party because he really is a member of the Likud party.
  • An_American_Karol · 1 year ago
    I have strong feelings about Americas responsibility to Israel, but when we start making policy decisions putting Israel first, we shelf our responsibility to ourselves.
    Lieberman would make a good lobbyist for Israel, not an American State Representative.
  • bumpkis · 1 year ago
    You have to wonder if saner people realize that Lieberman on the ticket means an IRAN attack for certain....the gloves need to come off re Lieberman....he is an Israeli firster to the core....maybe some people are realizing now that Israel's national interest do not necessarily coincide with our own.

    JOE LIEBERMAN : Traitors have no home or party. A very sad imitation of a man which must embarass Conn. every day that he appears anywhere.
  • LanceThruster · 1 year ago
    Joe McQuislingman didn't get the nod?

    Oh noes!
  • barts · 1 year ago
    Lieberman aside, I think the bigger issue is that the republican party has not changed one bit in spite of the failed Bush presidency that nearly destroyed our country and damaged the republican party's name, including all of the scandals within the party.

    Apparently nothing changes (for the good) in politics. Once again the election will be a close struggle between red and blue states. And the toss up states like my hometown Ohio, only voted for Clinton because she was less 'liberal' than Obama.

    It IS about small town thinking and small minded obsession over 'family values' and 'security from invading foreigners'. We may discount the dumb-fucks and country bumpkins, but THEIR VOTES COUNT TOO.
  • An_American_Karol · 1 year ago
    barts, yes they do count; however, Ohio won't be able to steal the election this year.
    With Obama this far ahead, it will take the Republicans two or three states to throw not just one like they did in Florida 2000 and Ohio 2004.
  • barts · 1 year ago
    I hope you're right, karol. However, I wouldn't get too comfortable with this position because I have a feeling that the republicans are just beginning to go on the aggression.

    With oil lobbyists lining their pockets and Dobson, Perkins and their ilk pulling the vote strings, they have a lot to loose. They are 1 supreme court justice away from changing everything to their way of life and they have been working toward that moment for over 30 years.

    If they had to I would n't be surprised if the republicans paid to have Gustav downgraded before it did.
  • tbhull · 1 year ago
    Has Pailin or the McCain campaign unequivocally stated that Trig is not the child of Palin's daughter?

    Also, will anyone pose the question the question to Palin whether her daughter was given any option other than having the child and marrying the purported father? If yes, then was abortion an option? How could a pro-lifer be in favor of state's prohibiting such difficult choices (perhhaps even jailing those that choice other than birth) and accept that her daughter was free to chjoose? Two sets of law for those governing and those governed?
  • aquarius2 · 1 year ago
    OT

    I hope to god the NEXT big blog push is about Palin being part of AIP (Alaskan Independent Party). This is big because it blows the hell out McCain's "Country FIrst" slogan. AIP's slogan is "Alaska First"

    The Republicans swear she was never a member so they are saying all the people that Palin knew in AIP are liars. Hmm, just keeps getting better and better.

  • aquarius2 · 1 year ago
    I am so sick of hearing the phrase "Independent Democrat" Joe Lieberman. He is NO Democrat.
  • barts · 1 year ago
    The difference between our parties is the republicans just kicked him out - we'll still take him back.
  • nicho · 1 year ago
    and he is no independent. He takes his marching orders from elsewhere.
  • News Nag · 1 year ago
    Hi. My name is Joe. I am a droopaholic. My real vendetta against the Democratic Party began after I was humiliated by lack of support and respect when I was running for President in 2004, when nobody would give me the time of day, especially the voters, even though I lived in Iowa (or was it New Hampshire, I forget) for a full month in an apartment with my family. Where's the gratitude? It was horrible! I had thought being the VP nominee in 2000 guaranteed me the Presidential nomination in 2004. After all, my name is Joe. But the ingrates denied me my enthronement. Why, oh why? It couldn't be because I'm a prig and a scold and an ungrateful schmoe and pompous little bloodthirsty Neo-Con whiner. No, it must be the Democrats. Something must be wrong with them, not me! I'll show them! I'll show the world! Bwahahaha. I'll sell my soul to the Republicans. They know how to treat a Neo-Con. They'll see! You'll all see!!

    No party for old men
  • nsr · 1 year ago
    Mark Shields had an interesting take on this, on the News Hour last night-- he thinks McCain was so pissed off at being told he couldn't have Lieberman, he picked Palin out of sheer spite.

    Don’t forget to add to Joe Lieberman’s “illustrious” resume that he greatly contributed to Al Gore losing his legal case in the 2000 election when Joe Lieberman sided with Bush, over his running mate, Al Gore, insisting that illegal overseas ballots be counted in Florida, that ruling swung the White House to George Bush. John McCain knows Lieberman is a “snake in the grass”.
  • dad · 1 year ago
    over the past two years?
    try the past seven years.

    he's not a moderate. he's not a democrat. he's not a republican.
    he's lieberman. he is his only interest. he is who he represents.

    lieberman is nothing. and he'll be less very soon.
  • KarenMrsLloydRichards · 1 year ago
    At least Pawlenty and Willard have the balls to make their displeasure known how much they got dicked over by McCain and Rove's Boys. But then there's Dragalong Droopy on Morning Schmo today doing his level best to talk up Palin with a straight face. Lieberman has no shame or pride.
  • nicho · 1 year ago
    I hope the networks remember to do PSA's advising people not to listen to the Lieberman speech if they're driving or operating heavy equipment.
  • hardeknox · 1 year ago
    They don't care much for Hebrews, except for ones with checkbooks and the "smart Jew lawyers" they'll need when they get caught doing stuff they shouldn't oughta. And the Israelis, who have to hold the fort until the rapture, when they get left behind.
