...

It was, more or less, an open secret. And everyone was saying the same thing: the governor's 17-year-old daughter is pregnant, the father is her boyfriend, and it's really nobody's business beyond that.

I happen to agree.

Amazing how all these magazines and newspapers and media whores still ignore Edwards’ love child.

Maybe Bristol Palin will now get $65,000 speaking fees.

Things are a little different in Alaska. They’re not called “The Last Frontier” for nothing! I admire their independence, and I think they’ve handled this very well. After all, it really is none of our business.

Good heavens. This from Time Magazine? A great story. A must read. More good sense than two or three of the posters here in the forum.

Who’d of thunk it?

Any news, any lie, any innuendo, any rumor, any gossip to make news.

I don’t know what the story is; but I don’t like gossip.

Let’s focus on those persons who pervert the meanings of the Constitution....thereby hurting us all.

The good news is that Mr. Thornburgh showed some discretion in this case.

“After all, it really is none of our business.”

Except to make sure she has a wonderful baby-shower.

That sums it up for me and Ill bet most of America feels the same way. The libs have already pissed off a good portion of women voters in this country they might as well piss off the rest by going after this child. They are doomed in November.

Not bad coming from Time. In the end, it will be hard even for the democratically biased mainstream media to not at least respect and admire Sarah Palin.

Remember this:

“...look, I’ve got two daughters. 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals. But if they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby. I don’t want them punished with an STD at the age of 16. You know, so it doesn’t make sense to not give them information.” Barack Obama 3/30/2008
