Sarah Palin's pregnent, single daughter likes booze.


Republican Vice Presidential candidate (U.S.) Sarah Palin’s pregnant teenage daughter seems to like to partake in underage drinking as well.

Republican VP pick Sarah Palin had an affair with her husband's business partner

More from CBS News:

John McCain’s campaign threatened legal action against the National Enquirer today for running a story about McCain’s running mate, Sarah Palin, allegedly having an affair with her husband’s business partner.

"Gosh, what a bunch of fucking assholes."

GOP: Is this the hill you want to die on? You do realize, I hope, that a lot of people who saw last night's speeches, those who aren't already predisposed to vote for McCain, will hear you slag community organizers and think, "Gosh, what a bunch of fucking assholes."

For good measure, I suggest you slaughter a litter of puppies.

To recap, two top GOP pundits say the Palin pick is a joke and that Mccain is going to lose, without realizing their mics are on.

CHUCK TODD: Mike Murphy, lots of free advice, we'll see if Steve Schmidt and the boys were watching. We'll find out on your blackberry. Tonight voters will get their chance to hear from Sarah Palin and she will get the chance to show voters she's the right woman for the job Up next, one man who's already convinced and he'll us why Gov. Jon Huntsman.
(cut away)

PEGGY NOONAN: Yeah.

MIKE MURPHY: You know, because I come out of the blue swing state governor world: Engler, Whitman, Tommy Thompson, Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush. I mean, these guys -- this is how you win a Texas race, just run it up. And it's not gonna work. And --

PEGGY NOONAN: It's over.

MIKE MURPHY: Still McCain can give a version of the Lieberman speech to do himself some good.

CHUCK TODD: I also think the Palin pick is insulting to Kay Bailey Hutchinson, too.

PEGGY NOONAN: Saw Kay this morning.

CHUCK TODD: Yeah, she's never looked comfortable about this --

MIKE MURPHY: They're all bummed out.

CHUCK TODD: Yeah, I mean is she really the most qualified woman they could have turned to?

PEGGY NOONAN: The most qualified? No! I think they went for this -- excuse me-- political bullshit about narratives --

CHUCK TODD: Yeah they went to a narrative.

MIKE MURPHY: I totally agree.

PEGGY NOONAN: Every time the Republicans do that, because that's not where they live and it's not what they're good at, they blow it.

MIKE MURPHY: You know what's really the worst thing about it? The greatness of McCain is no cynicism, and this is cynical.

CHUCK TODD: This is cynical, and as you called it, gimmicky.

MIKE MURPHY: Yeah.

Pathetic.

Since the Republican Party realizes they simply can’t defend Sarah Palin’s “qualifications” for Vice President (where does she stand on, oh, any issue other than abortion?), they have to resort to attacking the media for vetting Sarah Palin — something John McCain clearly neglected to do.

dem or repug?

I abhor unjust war. I abhor injustice and bullying by the strong at the expense of the weak, whether among nations or individuals. I abhor violence and bloodshed. I believe that war should never be resorted to when, or so long as, it is honorably possible to avoid it. I respect all men and women who from high motives and with sanity and self-respect do all they can to avert war. I advocate preparation for war in order to avert war; and I should never advocate war unless it were the only alternative to dishonor.

The Sarah Palin aboriton is excellent news for John McCain

It's Over.

Peggy Noonan: Palin is 'Bullshit'

Watch for yo' self. Sarah Palin. McCain's massive, strategic FAILURE. Just like Iraq. Has a worse campaign ever been run?
Murphy: You know, because I come out of the blue swing state government work. Angler, Whitman, Thompson, Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush. And these guys, this is all like how you want to (inaudible) this race. You know, just run it up. And it’s not gonna work.

Noonan: It’s over.

Murphy: Still, McCain can give a version of the Lieberman speech to do himself some good.

CT: Don’t you think the Palin pick was insulting to Kay Bailey Hutchinson, too (inaudible)

Noonan: I saw Kay this morning.

Murphy: They’re all bummed out. I mean, is she really the most qualified woman they could have turned to?

Todd: Yeah, I mean is she really the most qualified woman they could have turned to?

Noonan: The most qualified? No. I think they went for this, excuse me, political bullshit about narratives and (inaudible) the picture.

Yeah, but what’s the narrative?

Noonan: Every time the Republicans do that because that’s not where they live and it’s not what they’re good at and they blow it.

Murphy: You know what’s really the worst thing about it? The greatness of McCain is no cynicism and this is cynical.

And as you call it gimmicky.

“We are holding a convention that will nominate a Republican woman governor, Sarah Pawlenty, as our next Vice-President.”

RNC Co-Chair: We are proud to be nominating Sarah Pawlenty!

McCain stages photo op with pregnant teen's unwed boyfriend

Terrorist attacks in Israel are God's punishment to Jews who don't convert to Christ, speaker at Palin's church says in her presence


Brickner also described terrorist attacks on Israelis as God's "judgment of unbelief" of Jews who haven't embraced Christianity.

"Judgment is very real and we see it played out on the pages of the newspapers and on the television. It's very real. When [Brickner's son] was in Jerusalem he was there to witness some of that judgment, some of that conflict, when a Palestinian from East Jerusalem took a bulldozer and went plowing through a score of cars, killing numbers of people. Judgment — you can't miss it."

Palin was in church that day, Kroon said, though he cautioned against attributing Brickner’s views to her.
