Me too, and not just because she's a looker, but it don't hurt...

Is this why you never go on vacation, Charles?

/would you trust a guy named "Stinky"?

Andrew Sullivan meets the deep end and keeps on going...
there was a time I thought the guy was pretty smart [shows what I know].

I will never understand the level of hatred that spewed forth towards Sarah Palin. It is too much and defies rationality. It is a testament not to the shortcomings of Sarah Palin, but to the foaming at the mouth reactionaries that explode like Krakatoa every time they see her or even think about her. It tells me just about everything I need to know about a person if they are PDS sufferer.

I'm sure he's sitting on a beach somewhere, doing a sparkling imitation of the baby seen on the previous thread.

Sounds like Patrick is definitely the smarter of the two, happy vacation Andrew.

Never, in the history of the world, has a forty year old woman given birth to a downs syndrome child.

I would love to watch the hissy fit Sullivan is having right now.

Is this funny or sad? I'm not sure.

I am not big on suing people, But, if I were the Palin's, I would sue Sullivan for every nickel he has ever made, or ever will. I would beggar him. I wish they would.

I believe it has to do with the fact she is so... normal. She doesn't have the elitist background and schooling that "the establishment" wants; Democrat or Republican. She isn't snobbish. She enjoys the activities the normal American enjoys. She seems to employ a great deal of common sense in her day to day activities and decisions.

Taranto famously (well, kind of famously) parodied the typical left-conspiracy "but soandso hasn't DENIED our ridiculous claim!" position, by noting that some lefty icon had never denied being Queen of the Space Unicorns.

re: #53 experiencedtraveller

Yeah, the very recent past.

Well, none of his bosses called him on the carpet for his conspiracy mongering, so it was left to Appel. Nice.

What makes it all the more entertaining is that Appel says that Sullivan had access to all the information and completely ignored it, instead offering up repeatedly that Trig was not Sarah's child.

The Atlantic would be wise to take the keyboard away from Sullivan on a permanent basis. He's lost it. Badly (though some will argue he never had "it" to begin with).

As an aside, has anyone else noticed that practically all of today's posts are conspiracy/troofer related in origin or effect? Obama's birth certificate lawsuits shot down in flames, 9/11 trooferism takes a hit with KSM hoping to plead guilty to the charges, and now the Sullivan conspiracy turns out to be for naught.

They did to her just what they do to any minority that becomes a conservative. Similar to the ghetto boy that makes good . . . no one in the neighborhood likes him anymore.

Sarah tipped their entire rhetoric off the cart. She was everything they couldn't be.

consider what would be required for them to be true. Palin's doctor, along with a good number of Mat-Su Regional's doctors, nurses, and administrators would need to be in on the cover-up. On multiple occasions Palin would have had to pad her belly to make herself look pregnant. She would have needed to get friends to lie about seeing her breast feed. She would have had to silence an entire community – including two 17-year-olds and their friends – while the national media and the National Enquirer snooped around. Implausible to say the least.

I don't believe Sarah Palin is capable of pulling off such a cover-up. And, like Alex Massie and John Schwenkler, I don't understand what is being accomplished by continued investigation.

If she can do that, if she can pull that off...well hell boys, let's dispense with this whole elections thingamabob and just declare her Queen Palin and ruler for life. 'Cause that'd be one powerful woman. No sense getting run over.

re: #30 midwestgak

Besides the fact that teenage girls do not have Down Syndrome babies. What a crock this whole this was.

Actually, women of any age can give birth to babies with Down Syndrome, and there is a slight increase in incidence among mothers who are less than 20 years old. The rate of Down Syndrome among teenage mothers is, however, far less than that among mothers with advanced maternal age.

While I was researching that answer, I did found a paper from the Annals of Saudi Medicine, which found that there was no significant association between Down Syndrome and cosanguinity (i.e. mating with one's blood relative). A number of interesting papers on cosanguinity come from Saudi Arabia -- more than half of marriages there are apparently between first cousins.

OT
Good grief. I just came this close to being "taken" by what appears to have been a scam designed to get my credit card number.

There is a legitimate program called "verified by visa" that is used by some online retailers when you use your visa card.

I got an e-mail from "Verified by Visa" telling me that my card was blocked since it appeared somebody was trying to use it from overseas. I thought the e-mail was odd ONLY because it was sent to the yahoo.com e-mail address I set up for the lgf cookbook. I do not use that e-mail address for anything else.

I clicked on the link and was brought to a page that looked exactly like the "verified by visa" home page.

It asked me to enter my card number so that it could "locate" my account information.

Instead, I called Visa - my card is not blocked. The e-mail I got apparently was a "phishing" expedition for my card number. Legitimate communications do not ever ask you to provide your card number; plus, they will usually contact you by phone or letter (or both) if there is a problem.

It was scary because it looked entirely legitimate, and I am not a stupid or gullible person. The only clue I had that this might not be on the up and up was the fact that it was sent to an e-mail address I set up for only one purpose, and the fact that they asked me to enter my card number.

Anyhow - be careful!

Confessions. Reminds me of the time I asked a young woman in the gym what the dirtiest thing she ever did was, and she actually told me, and yes, it was plenty dirty.

I do find it an interesting exercise, to consider folks like him who carry the flag for his cause, hair trigger at the inference of any perceived slight, to then persist with this type of public behavior.

Not being as familiar with his work as some here, and not knowing he was treating for his disease, his writing certainly has a Rosie type of flavor, and almost neurotic component to it.

In our culture (which has been described lately as "post-religious" and "post-patriotic") she is both religious and patriotic. I'm in her corner.

The Trig Troofers and the Certifikate Troofers should get together and go bowling.

Unless she's elected president at some point, I think Sarah Palin will go down in history mostly as the final crucial element that completed the most extreme, the most enormous, the most stunningly mind-bogglingly breathtaking irony of modern American history.

In 2008, America elected a president who was basically a walking, talking pile of scandals, rolled into one and fitted into a suit. He used drugs excessively. He was a terrible college student who got into Harvard Law School by unspecified means. He was a member of a Socialist political party. His first political mentor and long-time personal friend was a terrorist who murdered dozens of people, and planned to murder 25 million more while violently overthrowing the American government. He's on record praising a PLO terrorist spokesman as a close personal friend who shaped his thinking. He spent his whole adult life as a member of a racist hate group.

And yet every editor in America ordered his or her reporters never to report on any of these things. Instead, they were dispatched to Alaska, to dig through every last dumpster in the state looking for dirt on a simple, ordinary, frankly slightly dull woman who never did anything more scandalous than driving her son to a hockey game. They invented an assortment of weird scandals, ultimately admitting that none of them were true. And yet the American people were left believing that Palin's history was just too erratic and scandal-filled for her to be vice-president.

For irony fans, it doesn't get any better than this. This is the irony equivalent of a complete solar eclipse that occurs while all eight planets are aligned in a straight line, the annual Perseid meteor shower is in progress, and Halley's comet is passing through the Earth's atmosphere.

Word UP!

Anyone want to go in with me and buy the Miami Herald? Sounds like it isn't worth much.
