Updates In September.....

As of Sept 2-6th, most of my focus as been on Palin as Governor and I have many questions as to how she has been doing this job for the State of Alaska....and so I am blogging on that over at Watergate Summer....But I am still updating this blog and adding data to the Blogroll everyday and am still monitoring all that is connected to this Situation.

I am now even more concerned as Governor she cut programs for Young Teen Moms, Special Needs Children and Most Sex Ed Programs for teens...

PLEASE PLEASE KNOW I AM MERELY ASKING QUESTIONS...Mostly because I don't want to see the repugs LIE to us again...I am sure she is a wonderful mom....I just have questions about some of what we have been told..

So I went searching a bunch of NW Blogs and Some Alaska blogs trying to figure out more about this Allusive NEW VP Candidate. But the Nurse and Mom part of my brain definitely started asking Some Questions. Little Things, like WHY Didn't McCain make the Announcement in Alaska- HER home state. And then reading her story, some things did NOT make sense. Like that she was Pregnant and No One she worked with Knew she was pregnant ? And then that she Flew HOME from Texas, and she was OVER 7 Months Pregnant and her water Broke ? ( Kind of story MSM LOVES...but also not quite realistic). And the other part of the story that bothers me, is that most people with new babies, especially mother of 4 and a new special needs baby take off more than TWO days before returning to work......So I stumbled around some last night and there is a lot of Other People Questioning Big Chunks of her story....I am not the only one....I am not trying to gossip here, please know that ....But I also think if we are ALL being lied to about a Special Needs Baby and questionable situation....and Heaven Forbid it is being used to Manipulate People's Sympathies for an Election......

And yes, I look at this photo and it looks like Winter, and no Sarah does not look pregnant..and the Daughter...well...she could be...as a Nurse and a Mom ....I have to Wonder, the Timelines,and the story is Dubious....it is.

Read Some of the Snippets of Threads from Internet Info and you tell me....what do you think....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"When Sarah Palin announced her pregnancy in early-March of 2008, the news came as a surprise to not only the media but to those she worked closely with.1 The secretiveness of the pregnancy and the observations that Palin did not appear to be pregnant in the months prior to her announcement led to rumors that she was covering up for her 16-year-old-daughter Bristol's pregnancy.2
Fast Facts
Governor Sarah Palin announced to the media that she was pregnant on March 5, 20081
Close staff members learned a few days before the public announcement3
Palin was seven months pregnant
Said the baby was due in mid-May1
Trig Palin was born one month after the announcement on April 18, 2008
Palin was featured in Vogue Magazine in December 2007"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
More Snippets::::
""Keep in mind, before we wind up the Friday night activities in Blogistan, that this is still only ten hours after the announcement of Sarah Palin as John McCain’s VP announcement caught so many of us flat-footed. In ten hours, though, the hits keep on coming. Let’s take a quick look at a few more.
The first one, and possibly the most tawdry of the bunch, came via several e-mails which arrived after the announcement here at Jazz Headquarters. Check out this picture of Sarah Palin from Super Tuesday this year.
It’s a nice shot, but according to at least once source it was taken on Super Tuesday. That’s in February. At that point, Palin should have been six months pregnant with her last child. It does make me wonder if the following will turn into a story.
…the oldest girl is rumored to have actually been the one who had the last baby, the one with Down’s Syndrome. She was taken out of school the last 4 or 5 months of her mother’s pregnancy.
On March 5th, 2008 Alaska’s Republican Governor, Sarah Palin, announced to the media that she was 7 months pregnant with her 5th child. She is currently 44.
Palin’s daughter Bristol is 16 and attends an Anchorage high school. Students who have attended class with her report that she has been out of school for months, claiming a prolonged case of mono.
Palin does not appear pregnant in any recent photographs. The announcement came as quite a shock to people who had worked closely with her, and have been quoted as saying that she did not appear pregnant whatsoever during the prior 7 months. While this is debatable, you can judge for yourself here: http://gov.state.ak.us/photos.php
(Ed Note: That link has since died since we first looked at it. The pictures were removed today.)"""

ANother Snippet from an NW Blog:::
"""It gets weirder. It’s reported that her water broke while she was at a conference in Texas, where afterwards she proceeded to give a half hour speech then fly home to give birth in Alaska. I’m not kidding:
Just yesterday, Palin was in Texas at a forum on energy with Texas Gov. Rick Perry and executives from four other states. [...]
The governor’s water broke during the energy conference but she stayed and gave a 30-minute speech before boarding an Alaska Airlines plane home to deliver the baby.
I just check Alaska Airlines website to see how long a flight from Austin to Anchorage takes: 11-12 hours.
As a friend and mother I’m talking with just told me, babies tend to come out faster with each one you’ve had. This would have been the governor’s fifth. So her water breaks in Texas, where she proceeds to give a speech, then make a 11-12 flight home to deliver the baby in Alaska? Say what?"""
*******
My thoughts:::
SO THE THING IS THAT PREGNANT WOMEN over 6 MONTHS, AND ESPECIALLY 7 MONTHS HAVE TO HAVE PERMISSION TO FLY BY THE AIRLINES AND THE DOCTOR...BUT GIVING A SPEECH AFTER WATER BREAKING? AND THEN FLYING FOR 12 HOURS? THERE WOULD BE ALOT OF CONTRACTIONS AND PAIN ? ALSO BY BABY 5- THEY COME FAST- LABOR IS OFTEN LESS THAN 12 HOURS.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So those are some of the questions I stumbled on..and some of my thoughts...worries...Something is Not Right.

PHOTOS FOUND ON MYSPACE RAISE MORE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PALIN SITUATION.


Myspace Page showing Levi's Sister's page- she called "Sarah Palin "Mommy-in-law with me and Trig" , within hours of the posting on Blogs- it was shut down.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"MommyInlaw ,Trig and Myself" is how photo was and is captioned on MySpace Page.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note Palin does not look like she just gave birth, looks like Hospital room, and Baby looks newborn...GRYPHEN has rest of story at his blog...( go - on Sidebar). The Girl in photo is "mercedes", she is Levi's Sister.

Footnote:::: Today an announcement was made by the McCain Campaign that" Bristol is NOW ABOUT 5 Months Pregnant and marrying the father named Levi".
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here is a photo of the girl from the hospital room with Trig- now she is standing with her brother "Levi"....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Go to Gryphen's blog- from the myspace page- and the photos she says"sister-in-law", and "mommy-in-law", from what we can tell the photo is of a girl- and she is Levi's Sister according to the other photos. Also Palin does not appear postpartum, she is standing next to the girl....looking fit, in Shorts....and the baby is definitely a Newborn. The room appears to be a hospital room. She on her myspace page does call the baby" Trig"...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE Main thing in the First Photo- is that the girl does NOT identify Trig with HIS MOTHER, she clearly says that Sarah Palin is HER Mommy-In-Law.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PLEASE DO SEE THE PHOTOS DOWN BELOW ON THE OTHER POST- ESPECIALLY PHOTOS TAKEN AT THE VP EVENT LAST WEEK.

Photos...from the VP day...





~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bristol clearly has really wonderful mothering skills, and the baby nuzzles up to her.

photos...

The girls look very different...odd....but the one girl...her body clearly shows changes...



How Much Do we know of her Canada Deal ?

In March 2007, Palin presented the Alaska Gasline Inducement Act (AGIA) as the new legal vehicle for building a natural gas pipeline from the state's North Slope.[59] This negated a deal by the previous governor to grant the contract to a coalition including BP (her husband's former employer). Only one legislator, Representative Ralph Samuels,[60] voted against the measure,[61] and in June, Palin signed it into law.[62] On January 5 2008, Palin announced that a Canadian company, TransCanada Corp., was the sole AGIA-compliant applicant.[63][64] In August 2008, Palin signed a bill into law giving the state of Alaska authority to award TransCanada Pipelines $500 million in seed money and a license to build and operate the $26-billion pipeline to transport natural gas from the North Slope to the Lower 48 through Canada.

Another Interesting photo...


In this Wednesday, May 28, 2008 photo, Palin talks with her husband Todd as they listen to state Revenue Commissioner Pat Galvin speak in Anchorage, Alaska. Palin, 42, was the first female and youngest governor of Alaska .

(taken 4 weeks after trig's birth)

Read The Birth Story over on the Side...it does not make sense

"They landed in Anchorage around 10:30 p.m. Thursday and an hour later were at the Mat-Su Regional Medical Center in Wasilla.
Baldwin-Johnson said she had to induce labor, and the baby didn’t come until 6:30 a.m. Friday."

She gave her speech sometime during the day- then she flew all day and even had a layover in Seattle, and then got home and drove almost an hour to deliver Trig. With no one noticing that she was pregnant or having contractions?

Her Doctor is not listed at Mat -Su as an GP or OB-GYN.....she does not have priveleges ? to deliver a high risk, special needs baby? was it a vaginal delivery- if so with both mom and baby should have been on antibiotics for 24 hours after delivery due to water breaking...

THE MEETING 4.18.08 ( Was not the National Governor's Meeting like she said, but it is VERY Interesting)

( Huge Hat Tip DK)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The following article referencing the forum was written April 9. Note among the governors are Palin (AK), Perry (TX), Pawlenty (MN ), Huntsman (UT), Jindal (LA), Gibbons (NV). All these people had been mentioned at one time or another for McCain veep.

http://www.statesman.com/news/content/region/legislature/stories/04/12/0412underthedome.html

it was linked in an article written today for opednews.com

http://www.opednews.com/articles/Sarah-Palin-and-the-Closed-by-Barbara-Bellows-Te-080831-733.html

from that article is this interesting snip:

"What was she doing in Texas that was so important that she couldn’t leave, and that she didn’t want to highlight by giving birth in Texas?"

Reported to be a "forum on energy with Texas Gov. Rick Perry and executives from four other states", it took a little digging to find that this forum was a closed-door affair hosting a select group of nine Republican governors and such notable corporate energy VIPS (and polluters) as Greg Boyce, chairman and CEO of the Peabody Energy Corp.; John Hofmeister, president of Shell Oil; Robert A. Malone, chairman and president, BP America; Anthony Orlando, president and CEO, Covanta Energy Corp.; and John Somerhalder II, chairman and CEO, AGL Resources.

It is important, too, to understand that the host, Governor Rick Perry, is the governor neatly trained to take Bush's spot in the Texas Governor's mansion. Before that, Perry defeated Jim Hightower for Texas Agricultural Commissioner with the help of Karl Rove and his scurilous tactics.

Perry is also the father of Dick Cheney's son-in-law, the lawyer Phillip Perry, who has bounced back and forth for the last several years between lobbying for Lockheed Martin and working for the White House. His wife, Elizabeth Cheney, though a mother of five herself, is a hawk for attacking Iran and has worked in the Bush Cheney State Department.

So, while the pregnancy story does bring up questions about Sarah Palin's character and priorities, I still think the far more relevant information for voters is what was going on behind closed doors in Texas that day?

AN AMAZING VIDEO THAT EXPLAINS THIS STORY IN A NUTSHELL ....WELLDONE.
