There was actually something pretty fishy going on with the Palin family, so the pregnancy conspiracy theory threads were valid until the evidence came out that the conspiracy wasn't true.

And I say that as the person who posted a picture of Palin with a prego belly in that famous thread, thus disproving the conspiracy theory. There were too many weird circumstances that just didn't seem to match up right...so it was totally valid for people to be skeptical.

Watch for a Bristol Palin miscarriage like 2-3 weeks before the election for the sympathy vote.

OT: Can anyone provide me sources where McCain is an economic expert? There was no need for McCain or Obama to be in Washington for this mess. They are just two folks - yeah, they'll be prez one day - but now, they need to debate and focus on winning the election. Let the pros handle the Wall Street fallout.

 

That is just wrong madskillz. Keep those comments to yourself in Albuquerque.

 

I'm in Houston, now, son - trying to recover from that fool Hurricane Ike.

BTW - Love your avatar and the Nobama sticker. I love you, man.

 

So much for following the links.... Oh well, that is sarcasm above this, right?

 

Ok McCain staffer - where are the links and sources that say McCain is suited to handle an economic mess? Where are the quotes that he is the best remedy to fix our economy? Obama is not the one trying to run and handle this - even when Dem AND some GOP lawmakers said his presence was a distraction and not helpful.

WASHINGTON - Sen. John McCain's self-portrait as a bold leader willing to set politics aside to save an endangered financial bailout plan took a pounding Thursday from top Democrats and even some fellow Republicans.

His efforts to re-energize his presidential campaign will partly turn on who wins the public relations battle, destined to play out for days. Things didn't go too well for McCain on Thursday.

Top Democrats in Congress ridiculed his role after a chaotic end to a White House summit meeting that McCain had requested, and which included Democratic nominee Barack Obama. McCain's own campaign said the session "devolved into a contentious shouting match."

The campaign statement suggested Obama was at fault. But Democrats were disdainful.

"John McCain did nothing to help," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., who attended the meeting. "He only hurt the process."

Hours later, when negotiations hastily resumed in the Capitol, House Republicans refused to send a representative authorized to bargain.

"This is the president's own party," said Rep. Barney Frank of Massachusetts, a chief Democratic negotiator. "I don't think a president has been repudiated so strongly by the congressional wing of his own party in a long time."

"We still don't know whether Sen. McCain works with them or not," he added.
