I’ve been reading with interest about the American presidential elections and about the new female VP Sarah Palin.

It’s amazing to see that America has picked a woman who strongly opposes pro-choice, doesn’t believe that global warming was created by man and has pretty much no experience in running a state (never mind a country).

But this story – http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/8/30/121350/137 – is even more interesting.

At best, taking her word for it, she had her water break while pregnant and choose to fly for 8 hours across America, land and then travel for 45 minutes to a remote hospital. At worst, presuming she is lying, she has pretended to be pregnant for 8 months, has taken her 16 year old’s baby, and is pretending it is her own.

Check out the pictures, it has pictures of her in very tight clothes at 7 months pregnant and has pictures of her daughter (who apparently has a baby bulge and isn’t). She also had to tell her work collegues at 7 months because they couldn’t tell.

I call BS.

Update: If you read anything about this then read http://mudflats.wordpress.com/2008/08/29/what-is-mccain-thinking-one-alaskans-perspective/. It’s an excellent write up.
