Palin's affair with her husband's business partner

Seriously, this sexism/misogyny is getting ridiculous. Leave her family alone.

 

Actually the problem I had with Dollar Bill was him looking directly into the camera and lying to every one of us about it.

It was the lie, not the affair.

America has had a long infatuation with politicians who can't keep their winkies in their pants. See the deification of Kennedy which only seems to glow more brightly with every passing year.

So no, it's not the fact that he had an affair, but rather the fact that he could look us in the eye and lie about it.

 

The two situations are not even remotely comparable.

How low must you stoop to source articles from the National Enquirer? I guess this is what happens when your hopeychangey candidate plummets in the polls.

 

Wasn't it the Inquirer that broke the Edwards story?

 

Congrats, they are 1 for 1,000.

Pathetic logic.

 

I know they were right about the Edwards thing, but I'm not buying it.

 

If it were true, I think it does say something about her character and is legitimate information to process in making a voting decision. However, Edwards story notwithstanding, I cannot accept the National Enquirer as any sort of source.

 

Enquirer broke the Jesse Jackson story too and the details of the Clinton-Lewinsky story. They had the pictures of the blue dress. We'll see if this story sticks. However, the McCain camp has debunked several of the rumors already. Looks like Palin wasn't even in labor when she gave her speech in Texas:

In fact, Palin was not in labor, and her doctor thought she had time. So the governor flew to Seattle, continued to Anchorage and then drove to a small hospital near her hometown, Wasilla — a journey of at least 10 hours.

"She wanted to get back to Alaska to have that baby," said a friend, Curtis Menard. "Man, that is one tough lady."

A woman with symptoms like Palin's should be examined to determine her condition, said Dr. Laura Riley of Massachusetts General Hospital. The long trip home could have posed a risk, "but the odds were still in her favor that everything would be O.K.," said Susan Gerber of Northwestern University.

When Palin arrived at the hospital, she was still not in labor, so her doctor induced it, Bruce said. Trig was born early the next morning, weighing 6 pounds 2 ounces.

 

So, it's ok when they pry into Edwards love life, but not Palin's? Mkay.

I couldn't care less if she had an affiar. But to argue that it's sexist for the Enquirer to investigate is HI-LARIOUS!

 

You're days behind this story, DD. The Smoking Gun reported on 9/5 that the seal motion was denied and that the attempt had nothing to do with an affair.

 

Oh my freaking god.

Its the double standard of the century.

Someone quick, go dredge up some quotes from the Edwards scandal thread...

 

DaDakota, care to apologize for polluting the board with false, poorly sourced, dated articles? Just disgraceful.

 

Truly

Just the rumor alone created a 20 page thread.

 

I don't care to hear about this trash no matter who the subject is, but I had to point out the irony here.

Most of George's trash hits on Obama didn't even make The Enquirer's standards. His complaint here is, as usual, totally full of ****.

 

Well if we are going by the Edwards precedent, than it's fair to post the Enquirer story which doesn't talk about the guy trying to seal records:

I'll tell you what, I certainly do buy that the planned wedding is definitely of the SHOTGUN variety.
