You're in Anchorage, the biggest city in Alaska with the besthospitals; it's been at least 13 hours since your water broke, nowwhat?A) Jesus Christ go to a goddamn hospital!B) Get in a car, have your husband drive you 45 minutes to a podunkhospital outside Wasilla(Answer: B!)If you answered correctly to all questions, your name is Sarah Palin.If you don't believe this is true, read the time line for yourself asreported by Sarah Palin's own Anchorage Daily News:<a class="user" href="http://www.adn.com/front/story/382864.html">http://www.adn.com/front/story/382864.html</a>...more on waterbreak-gate:<a class="user" href="http://www.politicalbase.com/profile/jnail/blog/&blogId=3422">http://www.politicalbase.com/profile/jnail/blog/&b ...</a>SPOILER ALERT: Sarah never truly made these terrible decisions,because Bristol Palin (Sarah's 16yo daughter) is really Trig's mom.That's right, Sarah is a grandmother - and there is nothing wrong withthat!! So why is Sarah lying about having given birth to Trig?Picture of Sarah with Bristol (and baby Trig) at the VP announcementceremony - which one looks postpartum to you?<a class="user" href="http://www.mccainblogette.com/postings/083008_0928/55.jpg">http://www.mccainblogette.com/postings/083008_0928 ...</a>UPDATE: The McCain Campaign has announced that Bristol (Sarah Palin's- now 17yo - daughter) is now 5 months pregnant. This new time linewould make it nearly impossible for Bristol to have given birth toTrig on April 16. So now what?! Are the Palins lying about Bristol'scurrent pregnancy to cover-up the first pregnancy? Or did Sarah Palinreally travel from Texas to Alaska - waiting 16 hours AFTER her waterbroke - to give premature birth to her son with Down Syndrome ?!Either way, Sarah Palin for Vice President of United States of America?!What was McCain thinking ?!+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
