Conservative Family Values August 29th, 2008, 4:13 PM EDT

In her speech in Dayton today, Gov. Sarah Palin announced that she and her husband are celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary, which means they were married on August 29, 1988.

On April 20, 1989 – less than eight months after they eloped – their first son, Track, was born.

I think I can guess the real reason why they eloped, and it wasn’t to save money on an expensive wedding.

Sal, I already posted to Colmes website that newsbusters has the comments saved. I am sure he is already aware of it, but I wanted the other liberals to see what he has been saying.

Good!

If he's not ashamed of what he's written, let him resurrect the page to prove it!

It’s called doing the right thing (not getting a abortion and not having a child out of wedlock). Something that Colmes and his liberal friends wouldn’t know anything about.

Technically, his Left. (It is Alan Colmes, after all). Although rumor has it that he and "Bruce" have an open relationship, and he often sees "Hans" on the side.

He's a wild one, that Alan!

Regarding the Colmes thread that crashed ...

To be clear, Colmes made an insinuation:

Alan Colmes Grossly Smears Palin
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2071666/posts?page=168#168

As for clarity, he clearly and boldly accused her of risking her baby’s health irresponsibly. It was a cheap shot. People all over the internet swarmed over him until his blog crashed. Now there’s a technician blog to see why it crashed, and people from both sides are fighting it out there. I’ll bring that link next.

“Even if the baby didn’t come early, likely she did not know she was expecting. Times have really changed in 20 years in terms of early pregnancy detection”

Good catch.

Tests back then required:

AT LEAST 7-10 DAYS PAST the last missed period!!

You had to be nearly 6 weeks along for the things to work.

This is just the beginning.

The pre-emptive misfire from the Obama campaign gives you an idea for the flavor. They made a tactical misstep in doing the dirty work themselves. That won’t happen again. They’ll rely on surrogates to do the dirty work in the future.

Sometimes I thank the Lord for the experience gained from being an active and partisan (former) Democrat.

I suspect Palin will get attacked more viciously than McCain in part because unbelievers attack believers because they first hate Christ more than their hatred of the believer.

People behave in certain fashions for reasons. Perhaps their sin is being born out, or in conjunction with poor habits, but there do seem to be source causes in behavior.

Some politicians are driven to serve the public from a desire for righteousness and justice in government. Palin strikes me has having that desire.

One aspect of Obama has nagged my conscience.

It’s difficult not to recognize whenever Obama is in his element and projecting what he appears to consider his worth to the world, he always displays an angry character. I’ve tried to think as to what would cause such a basis for that seemingly overwhelming desire of his to dominate over all others around him.

It’s easier for me to understand perhaps the drive of Obama’s wife, although I find it reprehensible, but I can understand a deep seated desire to accommodate and support the thinking of her husband, (though I doubt she might express it openly) and her shared angry view on life might be in part to her husband not remaining faithful to her in loving his wife.

With Barack, it doesn’t strike me as being a racial prejudice thing. His entire life has been in environments where he hasn’t suffered as a victim from any racial prejudice, although the converse might be argued. He’s lived in some gorgeous environments, given top rated positions of authority for less than mediocre capacity, never deprived of everything he has owned with risk of losing his life, and socially always placed in situations where any goal he sought would be socially promoted.

The goal of his campaign has been to become the DNC Presidential candidate, and he was fairly well given that on a silver platter, while obviously being groomed for being given power for many years without much substance behind that orchestration.

Yet, during his acceptance speech, a time when everybody knew and broadcast he was going to receive the nomination, a time when his goal had been achieved and a major milestone in his goals satiated, he manifest behavior of a person who wasn’t in the least bit satiated by that success.

This is bothersome, because whatever is driving him, will influence his behavior in the future. He obviously lacks the self-discipline to overcome that lack of satiated drive.

Some people cause their own misery by adopting habits which are self-fulfilling prophecies of failure. One possibility is that he associated an angry frame of mind with what he can do to be successful. He may have associated his desire to be overly dominant as the reason for his success, thinking it is all due to his volition to conquer anything and anybody else he might encounter.

(FWIW, he strikes me as an overly dominant insatiable homosexual, who only gleans some element of satiation by attempting to conquer other dominant people, and even then isn’t fully satiated, but satisfies a deeper lust to overcome any situation by his own means, independent of any other person, including God. I don’t see the Obama family as having the same loving relationships with one another as the Palin family manifests. I could easily understand Obama’s behavior if were a sodomite seeking to publicly manifest his rebellion to anything holy.)

Palin is almost the exact opposite from what I have so far observed.

I suspect Palin will in part become an archenemy of his persona, which he won’t think is even worthy his cognizance, but might be worthy his wrath and vengeance, as a public display of his dominant drive.

I can understand Palin seeking to serve in public office from a love of righteousness and justice. I don’t see Obama or Biden seeking public office for anything righteous or just, but to assert and manifest their own arrogance and insatiable lust for power.

The Site that Crashed.

Here’s what Alan Colmes wrote:

Rogers Cadenhead gives the timeline associated with the birth of her newest child. She had a speech in Dallas and, even after the water broke, continued with her activities, and then boarded a plane for home. She did consult by phone with her doctor.
Still, a Sacramento, Calif., obstetrician who is active in the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, said when a pregnant woman’s water breaks, she should go right to the hospital because of the risk of infection. That’s true even if the amniotic fluid simply leaks out, said Dr. Laurie Gregg.

[that site crashed due to the outpouring of indignation. I copied it to this post — ]

There are four kinds of radical leftists:

1. Those who covet what the rich have.

2. Psuedo-intellectuals who fear technology,progress, and widespread freedom.

3. Anti-moralists who seek to debaucherize everyone else.

4. The wolves who exploit 1, 2, and 3.

The McCain / Palin Ticket threatens all four categories.

The good news is that most Americans are not radical leftists.

That is ridiculous. Pre-natal care has NOTHING to do with Downs Syndrome. It is caused by a chromosomal abnormality that is referred to as non-disjunction. When the gametes (egg and sperm) are formed, the chromosomes are supposed to be equally divided so that each one gets exactly half of the total. Sometimes mistakes occur and one of the cells gets both copies of the chromosome and the other gets none. Most of the time, these imperfect gametes are either do not get fertilized or produce offspring which are not viable. Downs Syndrome is also called Trisomy 21 because it results from an egg (usually) with two copies of chromosome 21 being fertilized by a sperm with only one. The baby will then have three copies of chromosome 21 resulting in the condition known as Downs Syndrome.

The only thing that Sarah Palin had against her was her age. Because women are born with all of the eggs they will ever produce (with only one maturing each month from puberty until menopause), the older the mother is, the more time the eggs have been exposed to mutagenic agents, such as chemicals, radiation, or viruses, and the more likely a chromosomal abnormality such as non-disjunction could occur. Once a man reaches puberty, he will produce sperm continuously throughout his life and these chromosomal abnormalities, while still possible, are much less likely. Although some of the screening tests used for early detection are not specific for Downs Syndrome, a chromosomal analysis of fetal cells gives an unmistakable diagnosis. The Palins KNEW that their child was going to have Downs Syndrome and chose to have the baby. I am sure they will be rewarded with a happy, loving child which is the usual personality of these special gifts from God.

Even if this were true, isn’t a person expected to mature over 20 yrs time? This piece is written by a man almost 60yrs old who seems to believe that since he obviously hasn’t matured since he was 22, he doesn’t expect that Palin has either.
What an immature slimeball. I hope his wife is embarrassed as h&ll over this and reads him the riot act.

Alan's slam of Palin’s DS child reveals double ignorance since DS is a genetic issue, determined at the moment of conception, so it could not possibility be an issue of “prenatal care”.

But this hints at the liberal practice of changing the meaning of words, and in this case of using Orwellian language. When a genetic defect is slammed for lack of “prenatal care” it can only mean that Alan defines “prenatal care” as failing to have an abortion.
