    Oops, look what happens when teenagers don't have sex education

    Palin should get a few accusations of bad parenting skills for her teen daughter but she did keep a Down's baby and a teen pregnancy. But who wants to walk THAT walk? If anything it shows that John McCain was hoodwinked into making Palin his running mate. Don't underestimate the elaborate hoax' Republicans have been able to muster in the past. Can we really believe Republicans who took us to war on unsubstantiated accusations of WMD’s? Look up Watergate in Wikipedia if you didn't study it and were too young to have lived through it. Google "Oliver North" as well. Did Palin go into labor in Texas and fly back to Alaska so her baby would be an Alaskan and not a Texan. Ouch! Lets all sing "The Eyes of Texas are Upon You," to the tune of “I’ve Been Working on the Railroad.” Yuk... The Truth is Out There.
