Interesting how the responses to your article comport with your thesis.

Good article BTW.

“the real reason Palin is being lied about: Palin made the choice to allow her child to live,” Yeah,
sure….
I worked in a group home years ago. A Republican politician used to come and get his daughter, when he ran for reelection or a fund raising event, otherwise we never saw the family. I’ve always been distrustful of politicians and family. At least YOU used the word CHOICE which is what Republicans want to take away from everyone else.

My prejudice against a entire polictical party that desires to steal the rights of other human beings in a society that are not like them is showing. How is it that a person can stand for abstinence and be against teaching sex education in public school end up with a pregnant teenager? I do not judge the teenager I judge the mother and her said values! I judge the Republican party and its said values! It is all so freakin funny!

Nancy- seems you article is filled with quotes of prejudice and your statements are prejudice . Are we all not ordinary people?

Nancy you are a bigot and an idiot. Even if Sarah did have a fifth child she put it in great danger by not going to the hospital for more than 14 hours after her water broke, flying back to Alaska from Texas and then delievering the baby (with Down syndrome) in a small hospital with no tertiary care. Andrew Sullivan can comment on this story. Sarah Palin has no qualms judging every gay person and deciding what they can do even though she is not gay herself.

Your prejudice against ordinary folks is showing.

As for Dan, your statistics are wrong.

# Less than 1-in-1,000 risk of Down syndrome for women under 30
# About 1-in-25 risk of Down syndrome for a 45-year-old mother

If there still are more mothers under age 35 having children with Down’s it is because there are a lot more of them having babies.

In 2003, women over 35 have 18% of babies but 50 % of children with Down’s.

If She can’t teach her daughter moral values to keep her legs crossed, how can she be an example to America.

Hey There, Have you heard the news… The right wing conservative VP Pick Sarah Palin’s teenager daughter in a unwed 5 month pregnant girl. Hmmm, if you are teaching your child those values that you right wingers claim others are not… how did this young lady get pregnant? My guess is it was on purpose-she just wanted to staert a family at a young age so she can play with them while she is still young(Sarcasm) I guess Palin may have some other “stains” on your Conservative “do as I say not as I do” Party. Oh, I know, I can already hear you telling me not to judge her and it happen to everyone, it is a teenage thing. But, it is so interesting when you change your RIGHT WING BS when it is one of your own. LOL! LMAO!

The “family values” party has a great ticket this year. On the top of the ticket is a known and admitted adulterer, (McCain had affairs for several years before he met Cindy) and a woman (Palin) that is content to devote much more time to being vice president than giving that time to her family, especially a challenged infant.

I am all for women in the workplace, but this baby needs his mom, and mom is selfish.

I will be voting for the family with the TRUE family values, the Obama family.

The statistics on who has down’s syndrome children is misleading. 80% of down’s synfrome children are still being born to young women.

Your justification for the flight falls flat because it does not count her time giving her speech or the 45 minute drive to the small clinic chosen for having the baby.

You also manage to accuse the Medical persomel in Texas of general malpractice in regards to infant care.

Can it be proved that she is not the mother. I guess not without access to medical records or to BNA testing, but it is still very suspicious.

Do I trust Sarah Palin and her family to be honest?
Not after the revelations of Troopergate.
