Sarah Palin's lover revealed
October 1, 2008 1:50 PM   Subscribe

Sarah palin's lover revealed I guess that takes care of family values...sure, the paper is a tabloid. But they stand by their story and they were the paper that nailed John Edwards. But if Palin is only the number two person, what do we really know about the full medical record of McCain?It is not being made available, and doctors worry about what it contains.

Why does the national enquirer website never work for people who live outside America? Are its truths too beautiful for us to comprehend?

The webs have seen this already.

Dang, I was hoping we could go one more day without Palin so we all could unleash in the inevitable VP debate thread. Thanks for ruining it.

If I wanted to read crap like this, I'd go to the checkout in the Wasila Wal-Mart, not here.

The National Enquirer has proved surprisingly accurate in the last few years.

It saddens me slightly that The National Enquirer seems to be gaining even a modicum of journalistic credibility. Damn you John Edwards, damn you.

Maybe this will give McCain an out so he can gracefully dump her.

The enquirer has been running with this stuff for a while. They'll never "catch" her the way they did Edwards.

Anyway, who cares.

I don't care what she does with her uterus, I just want her to stay out of everyone else's.

[p.s. having said that, what she's done with her uterus is kinda weird]

If you're overseas you'll probably get a 404. Try Anchorfree.

But really, an affair? Who gives a shit? I want to see this woman--and this ticket--crash and burn based on her arrogance, ignorance, shitty administrative record, nepotism of unqualified candidates, and wacko religious beliefs. Not from this.

Say what you will about the Enquirer, they are not the Weekly World News, and most of these outrageous stories turn out true in the end, or are at least never successfully refuted. Their journalistic standards are lower than average, they don't need independent sourcing, but I bet they are right about this one. I did leave it sitting in the rack at the supermarket yesterday though.

One of the sources did pass a "rigorous" polygraph test. If it was just one of those sloppy, Wire-inspired polygraph tests using a copy machine, then I would be skeptical.

I found it funny too... strange pic to use in the context of identifying a lover.

It is not being made available, and doctors worry about what it contains.

However, plumbers and bus drivers indicate they are not terribly concerned.

I've been noticing that a lot of the photos regarding Palin lately seem unflattering; like they chose the one where she looks most unappealing.

It could just be confirmation bias on my part, but I like to think that the press got a little pissed about the way they have been shunned by her, and are passive aggressively seeking retribution.

The National Enquirer in one end of the Obama tank, Qwen Ifill at the other end of the Obama tank...

That is one big tank staring down at old McCain & Co.

Or something like that...

She was obviously asked about why she cheated on her husband, and the gesture was her retort. Sorry Todd. Cold in Alaska, I guess.
