JohnyCanuck (1000+ posts) Thu Apr-14-11 09:08 AMOriginal message Prof authors an academic paper concluding Sarah Palin is probably Trig's grandmother, not mother. QuoteProfessor Bradford Scharlott of Northern Kentucky University has looked into this story in detail and written a long academic article about it. He concludes two things:First, that the "conspiracy theory" is likely true--Sarah Palin staged a huge hoax, and, second,The American media is pathetic for not pursuing the story more aggressivelyScharlott's article walks through all the evidence supporting the theory, including the photos of Palin in what is said to have been a late-stage pregnancy, the leisurely 20-hour trip home that Palin took after she supposedly went into labor in Texas, the refusal of the hospital where Trig was supposedly born to even confirm that he was born there (let alone who was the mother), strange statements from Palin's doctor and the McCain campaign, and so on.<snip>

yardwork (1000+ posts) Thu Apr-14-11 09:26 AMResponse to Original message 10. If there was a cover-up, then Palin used her position as governor to intimidate dozens of witnesses. That's actually very important and something that the press ought to pursue because the implication is that the nation could have elected a VP who used her position as governor to intimidate.We already know that Palin used her position as governor to get an Alaska state highway patrolman fired and smeared. She appears to have used her position as mayor of Wasilla to get her house build for free - and the media has ignored that as well. I've always thought that Palin cut a deal with federal investigators and probably the Republican Party as well. She stepped down as governor and they stopped the investigations into her house construction and probably a lot of other forms of graft in which she and her husband were involved.

No wonder we're in the shape we are in this country.Ridiculously long expensive wars, The Tea Party, Bank fraud not only tolerated but rewarded, continued deterioration of the middle class - even as many in the Middle Class support the Republicans, blatant transfer of wealth to the upper 1% - as the uninformed scream "Socialism!!".All of this and so much more and we (the country) can't figure out yet that Sarah Palin is a fraud. Go figure.
pampango (1000+ posts) Thu Apr-14-11 09:57 AMResponse to Original message 17. For some this seems to be our version of the "birther" conspiracy theorists. "Birthers" wasting their time on Obama's citizenship are not only useless, but their efforts are probably counterproductive when it comes to other conservatives trying to convince independents that Obama is wrong on policy grounds. "Birthers" tinge their whole movement with the scent of stupidity. It appeals to many of their already-committed supporters, but does nothing to attract others. Similarly we have so much stuff to use on Palin in terms of her experience, knowledge and political beliefs that to spend any time on the issue of Trig's maternity seems at best useless and at worst counterproductive.
SoCalDem (1000+ posts) Thu Apr-14-11 11:09 AMResponse to Reply #17 29. Myth-spinners like her are ONLY vulnerable in a few areas. Motherhood is her weak spot because it's what her rabid followers first loved about her.. It's her "hook"..many of us KNOW she's a fake/fraud/grifter, but her fans love her & pay her lots of moolah because they overlook the stupidity. The faked pregnancy was the ONLY way to shut her down , and it was possible at the beginning. The more time that elapsed, the more likely that she would get away with it..Someday Bristol will write a "Mommy Dearest" & the facts will tumble out.
fasttense (1000+ posts) Thu Apr-14-11 09:57 AMResponse to Original message 18. Show us the birth certificate. What is Palin trying to hide? Why wont she produce the birth certificate?She must be hiding something she doesn't want the public to know. So, Bristol got knocked up twice. The 1st time Palin covered for her. The 2nd time there was no cover except for Levi pretending he was going to marry the promiscuous child. And Palin represents some kind of family values? SHOW US THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE PALIN! (sorry for screaming, I got carried away)
Javaman (1000+ posts) Thu Apr-14-11 11:31 AMResponse to Reply #30 32. It matters because half wit failin quitter ran with Family Values Edited on Thu Apr-14-11 11:32 AM by Javamanas one of her base issues. And on top of that, her bizarre push for abstinence only education. It would have shown that she 1) didn't practice what she preached and 2)she was a complete and utter bullshit artist. That's why this did matter. but because none of this was investigated, we now are treated with her semi-daily utterances of colossally stupid claptrap. Which, in turn, help spur on the ball licking tea partying halfwits. She hasn't been in the press a lot lately and I'm grateful for that.
Arugula Latte (1000+ posts) Thu Apr-14-11 11:37 AMResponse to Original message 33. Wait -- Trig was born 4/08; Tripp was born 12/08, right? I don't think it's possible that Bristol had both unless they lied about Trig's birth date.

Dr. Scharlott plays tournament Scrabble. He has a personalized Scrabble board, once flew to Toronto to play in a tournament and claims to have vocabulary that could “stun an elephantâ€.
Here's the freak professor with too much time on his hands:http://www.nku.edu/directory/display_bio.php?record=scharlott@nku.edu&overlayMore about him:http://informatics.nku.edu/com/undergraduate/journalism/campprofiles.phpI hear he's single, ladies.
They can mock her intelligence all they want, but until Obama releases his transcripts, there's no reason to believe she didn't have the better GPA, since his Ivy League admission was essentially based on his race and ethnicity, not academics.
I would love to see Sarah Palin now come out with a genetics test of Trig to pull the rug out from under these fools.
"The nation that couldn’t be conquered by foreign enemies has been conquered by its elected officials" odawg Free Republic in reference to the GOP Elites who are no difference than the Democrats
I'm sure Sarah and Trig have long form Birth Certificates and both are more qualified to be President then Obama in ways other than the BC issue!
I'm sure both of them could land a security clearance in a fraction of the time it would take O'Bummer to fabricate a back story sufficiently muddled that the FBI investigator couldn't disprove it and threw up his hands in frustration.

Well, I guess that means Trig can never run for President??
Mariana (1000+ posts) Thu Apr-14-11 03:28 PMResponse to Reply #62 85. The flying while leaking story is just so far out there. She wasn't just flying while leaking. She was flying while leaking, four or five weeks premature, she was over 40, with her fifth child, and with a known Down's syndrome child. That's a whole long list of complications and potential complications. Also, it's not like she got on the plane right after her water broke. According to her, it was 10 or so hours later.NO ONE in their right mind would do that. So, she's either lying and made the story up to impress people (which is pretty crazy in itself, telling that particular story, but wouldn't surprise me), or she's not in her right mind.
uberblonde (941 posts) Thu Apr-14-11 04:22 PMResponse to Reply #85 99. Unless you consider another possibility. Which is that she wanted her defective child to die. She might have starved herself during the pregnancy for the same reason. It's not unheard, especially with religious women who won't consider abortion.

cali (1000+ posts) Thu Apr-14-11 02:39 PMResponse to Original message 73. ****ing ridiculous. because someone writes a supposedly academic paper, Palin is the child's grandmother. Unless the prof has DNA proof, it's just more stupid.

the refusal of the hospital where Trig was supposedly born to even confirm that he was born there (let alone who was the mother)
The hospital does not have to give out this information.
They only go back 7 years on elected officials, all the coke they packed up their Ivy League noses as students, young professionals, or 'Community organizers' doesn't matter. For the military or civil service, if you need a clearance higher than just 'Secret' (Which is used for everything even slightly sensitive anymore) but screwed the pooch even modestly when you were 16 and they find out about it when you apply at age 30, you are totally SOL.
