Wasn't There A Lifetime Movie Like This?

This really falls into the category of WTFriday, but it's not Friday and I've sort of overused my "WTFriday on Sunday" allotment for the time being.

Regardless of how you feel politically about Sarah Palin (and I think we can all assume how I feel), there is a story in the rumor mill that her newest born, Trig!, is not actually her son, but her grandson. Word on the street is that her oldest daughter, Bristol, was pregnant when she left high school for 5-8 months due to "mono." Apparently no one knew Palin was preggers when she made the announcement, 7 months in! Even more suspicious, she went into labor before giving a speech in Texas, gave the speech, then !flew home 8 hrs! to Alaska to have the baby. There are further scandalicious details and pictures to go along with this story, and to get to them, may as well start here.

For my two cents, the pictures don't prove a whole lot, especially the ones where the daughter is allegedly 7 months pregnant - she looks about as pregnant as her mother does at that time. I'm extremely doubtful that this story is true, but I thought since we were on the subject and all. . .may as well discuss!

And for the record, Bristol, Willow, and Piper are borderline crazy but still cute names. TRIG and TRACK, however, are downright silly. Experience aside, how can we trust a woman who would be so evil to her own children??

5 tips left at the bar:

I think it is hilarious if it is true - not for the poor child or the other child of hers involved, that is just tragic - but because of the fact that she is such a public high profile person, how on earth could she expect to get away with this?

I had to blog about it too, I couldn't help myself!

Ha, she seems like the kind of shady person to do something like that. I don't necessarily think the pictures say all that much, but the fact that her daughter was out of school for 5-8 months because of "mono" says a lot. I had mono and was sick for over a year, but I wasn't that sick the whole time. You do hit points where you can join the real world.

I'm not sure about Lifetime, but it was definitely a plot on Desperate Housewives!

Nik, I've been waiting for your official rebuttal to m's Palin post! Just for fun, anyway. :) What else do you have to say on the matter??
