Ah, home again

Me: Hey, you know Palin, McCain's VP choice? (we left town right after he picked her, and so missed the last several days of hoopla)
Chris: Yeah?
Me: You know how she's got five kids, and the youngest is four months old? Some folks are saying the youngest isn't really hers; it's actually her teenage daughter's.
Chris: Oh come on.
Me: Yeah, well there were some pictures of her from about six months ago, when she would've been seven months pregnant, and she doesn't look pregnant.
Chris: But that's just like those people who've been saying Obama's Muslim.
Me: Well, the pictures are pretty convincing. If they're not doctored. Although there's some where she does look pregnant. You know what I think, though?
Chris: What?
Me: I think Palin wasn't pregnant, the baby was her daughter's, Obama is a Muslim, and he's the baby's father.
Chris: Oooh! Yeah!
(much later)
Chris: No, you know what we really need? We need pictures of Obama, from about six months ago. I bet the baby's, like, really his.

If you posted that in the right place....people would believe it.

A Democratic Concubine. Awesome.

Check out politicsforum (or my journal) they're saying all sorts of things, including that she is a lesbian. (if only...)

Also, how common is it for tennagers to have down syndrome babies?

Let's not forget the totally vile rumors that the baby is not only the daughter's, but that he was conceived in incest.

Yes.

Clearly, the answer is that Obama is, in fact, Sarah's husband's long-lost brother (her husband is part Native Alaskan, Obama's African American--one minority is just like another, right?), and when he knocked up the daughter, it was just like the prequel to Flowers in the Attic.

Admittedly, there are some strange elements to her last pregnancy. Coupled with her daughter's absence from school, it's a bit fishy. But honestly, some of this stuff is so horrible...I feel bad for her daughter--people are actually scrutinizing photos of this girl and saying that she had a baby bump.

Oh, and fishy or not, I think we should assume that this is her son, and be very, very careful how such rumors are approached. Clean politics, please.

yay, Obama mpreg! LOL

I had a dream about Obama last night. He was calling me to come over to where I was staying, which was some old farm of Che Guevara's, and I was going to tend the small plot of veggies and take care of the animals. Odd...

I LOLed and read this one aloud to Estel last night.

Then, this morning, I read this: Palin says her 17 year old daughter is 5 months pregnant (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080901/ap_on_el_pr/cvn_palin_daughter;_ylt=ArKA0PER6_T5fP8aTuq6fVjXn414).

Life is funny.
