    fer crying out loud

    yeah, the mccain team knew all about bristol and her baby daddy last week before making up their mind, but palin's press spokesman had no idea on saturday. need to know thing, i guess.

    is there the slightest shadow of a doubt that the kid came forward last sunday "uh mom, we have to talk" (which is perfectly normal) and they are now lying their asses off to look like they are in total control of everything (which is really abnormal)? following in the bush footsteps, i see, bringing honor and dignity and most of all truth back to the white house.
