From Warner Todd Huston at Stop the ACLU:
And, naturally, Dougherty pretended it wasn’t his fault that the story was appearing in his newspaper.
I want to be very clear on this: I have from the beginning and do now consider the conspiracy theories about Trig’s birth to be nutty nonsense.
If that’s true, why has Lisa Demer been asking questions about Trig’s birth?
Because we have been amazed by the widespread and enduring quality of these rumors. I finally decided, after watching this go on unabated for months, to let a reporter try to do a story about the “conspiracy theory that would not die†and, possibly, report the facts of Trig’s birth thoroughly enough to kill the nonsense once and for all.
Sure, he is only reporting that other people are still talking about this idiotic conspiracy theory.
Next week, Dougherty plans to run a long expose on how other people are still saying the world is flat, followed by a story that other people are claiming the Holocaust didn’t really happen, but these are only after he finishes his in-depth and highly intellectual story that other people are claiming the moon landing never happened. Not that he is continuing the discussion on these crazy, idiotic conspiracy theories, of course.
You could included Tim Blair’s “The Plastic Turkey Meme That Wouldn’t Die”.
Major John, that one’s not biodegradable. There are so many we could add that it seems best to leave it alone.
The Plastic Turkey isn’t biodegradable, but it’s small and relatively simple, so it might be possible to analyze it as a psychosocial phenomenon. The turkey wasn’t fake. We have circumstantial evidence in the form of messhall common practice, not just military but any large-group feeding system, and we have (thanks to Blair’s commenters) direct testimony from the fellow running the mess hall at the time.
It was, however, not meant to be eaten, and having sat on the shelf above the steam tables for most of the day was probably too dried out to be edible, so it was “artificial” in that sense, and monky/alphie/actus/parsnip can argue with some logic that in this context “plastic” is merely a synonym for “artificial”. If that is the case, the basic argument — that Bush was cruelly taunting the soldiers with something he had that they weren’t permitted to share — stands, and “plastic turkey” is simply a paraphrase.
That is as far as the Leftoids can understand the situation, and the fact that the troops didn’t rise up and smite the offender is a continual puzzlement to them. Now, Bush was taunting the soldiers, but was doing so as a “black” joke based on possibly the oldest unresolvable dichotomy associated with military service: you can be comfortable and lack the ammo to survive the war, or you can have enough ammo to win but have to live rough. Properly framed, it’s the basis of a good joke in any military context. Having it come from the Commander in Chief in terms that make it clear that he understands is roll-on-the-floor material. The Leftoids cannot understand that because the tools necessary for understanding aren’t present in their worldview. They thus fall back on the simplistic version, and the meme endures. Nuance, y’know.
Regards,
Ric
Bush said that the thing he would miss most was being CiC. The lefties will read whatever they want into that, but I think that the simple fact is he enjoyed working with people who do their jobs competently.
I assume that during Mrs. Palin’s pregnancy that there was daily press coverage on her by this newspaper. I assume that there was and is an assigned beat reporter to Mrs. Palin and/or the governors office. I mean, if I was running a serious newspaper in a specific state I would. And I assume that there was a noticiable change in the physical appearance of Mrs. Palin, during this specific time period, and I assume there was even a story or two. I ain’t even gonna bother with looking it up, because if there were’nt then they aren’t doing their job. Todd Palin needs to bop over to that paper and kick Mr. Dougherty’s ass up and down whatever the main thoroughfare is in Anchorage. Then they can run another story, hopefully complete with pictures of Mr. Dougherty, before and after. And for any pussy who doesn’t think he should, you don’t have a fucking penis. Unless you’re a chick and then if you’re preaching this bullshit, you need your tittie’s twisted. Painfully.
Just sayin.
Rumor quality? Spoken like a true intellectual.
I do not believe that any person in so-called mainstream media has behaved more revoltingly and with less honor than Andrew Sullivan has in respect to this Trig Palin issue. he has crossed a line that warrants his dismissal from his job at the Atlantic.
he is less than.
Salim Hamdan was released from custody by the Yemeni authorities yesterday. Wow, thanks SCOTUS! Justice well done!
Anchorage used to be a two-newspaper town, and like another McClatchy stronghold I could name (hey Lisa, you lurking?), the wrong newspaper survived.
McGehee,
The loony left in LA thinks the “wrong newspaper” survived, too, even though the LA Times is completely on their side.
I saved a copy of the last issue of the Herald-Examiner, for grins and giggles. By the time of its demise, it had descended into left-wing political “Weekly World News” tabloid silliness. Sully would have felt at home there.
Ric,
You would be correct if the mess hall hadn’t roasted up a bunch of other turkeys. One of the traditions on holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas that have giant feed bags laid on, is that the officers will serve the enlisted, to include carving up roasted turkeys, steamship rounds, or whatever else has been cooked. As soon as one is fully served, a new one will be plopped down – the troops weren’t eating reheated turkey loaf. Whether the turkey the President carried was eaten is irrelevant, it was an example of what was being served, therefore there was neither artificiality, nor taunting nor plasticity, nor black jokes.
That the meme endures is simply a byproduct of leftoid ignorance of the military, and their bitter clinging to their misbeliefs.
Interesting bit from the H-E Wiki link:
The union held a gun to its own head, saying in effect, “Do as we say or we’ll pull the trigger!”. The average readers and advertisers said, “Hey, go right ahead”.
And then BLAMMO!
So you are left with two choices :
1. Trig isn’t Sarah’s baby
2. Sarah Palin was incredibly reckless in the days/hours before Trig’s birth. She put him in danger for no reason other than she wanted to give birth in some backwoods hospital. Stupid as shit.
Which one of these two choices are you wingnuts more comfortable with? For myself, #1 casts Ole’ Sarah in a better light.
oh, you’re a doctor now? or did Phil Graham tell you that?
I’m sure you have the same feeling about lefties who use midwives, right, assclown?
It is comforting to know we now have choices over the truth.
Has nothing to do with midwives. Has to do with Sarah Palin. Try again.
assclown, you idiot. I know for sure you’re not a woman, because you have NO idea how women behave in regard to their pregnancies. Governor Palin knew exactly what her body and her baby needed. This is one issue where, if you have a penis, you need to keep your yap shut.
riiiiight, Mr. “False dichotomy” try again.
Bite me, ushie. It doesn’t take a vagina to know what is safe for an unborn baby. Fucking jackass.
Yip Yip, maggie!
who’s the good girl! you are!
Your disingenuity is showing, classpwn.
again, you gonna show us your diploma?
yip! yip! keep begging me!
is your partner just not doing it for ya anymore? poor Phil.
The ass has beclowned himself. If you even had a girlfriend you wouldn’t have posted that.
ha ha, no, assclown knowns stuff. sooper sekrit stuff.
I saved a copy of the last issue of the Herald-Examiner,
Spiny
My dad worked for the Examiner right up to the point they merged with the Herald. To this day he can give you chapter and verse on what a boneheaded move it was and that he knew it would spell the eventual end of the paper.
assclown believes it knows better than Gov. Palin’s own OB, who saw no danger in her flying home.
Wonder how many pregnancies assclown has had.
The idea that Palin was reckless isn’t exactly controversial. At least among sane people. If you read anything other than wingnut echo chambers, you might understand this. It isn’t my job to convince you, just to mock your proud ignorance.
I guess it would go against the “Palin, Warrior Princess” idolatry, though. So sad.
Her flying home landed on Hillary.
Your facts are wrong, idiots. Her doctor isn’t an OB. Palin never asked permission to fly, she just did it.
http://www.adn.com/626/story/382864.html
Hey, a link! Maggie, you HAVE been a good girl!
Which is why she should have taken medical advice from assclown and Sully.
I’m just going to start referring to egregious lefty trolls as assclowns. You are now an internet noun.
assclown doesn’t read his own link, but why should that bother an assclown who obviously is more informed than the attending MD?
— she consulted with her doctor, family physician Cathy Baldwin-Johnson, who is based in the Valley and has delivered lots of babies, including Piper, Palin’s 7-year-old.
Palin kept in close contact with Baldwin-Johnson. The contractions slowed to one or two an hour, “which is not active labor,” the doctor said.
“Things were already settling down when she talked to me,” Baldwin-Johnson said. Palin did not ask for a medical OK to fly, the doctor said.
“I don’t think it was unreasonable for her to continue to travel back,” Baldwin-Johnson said.
I see why you are so reluctant to link, assclown.
Sooo…her FEMALE obs-gyn and Gov. Palin were in contact and her FEMALE obs-gyn said it was ok, what Palin did.
Please assclown, you’re being a bigger assclown than the situation warrants. Settle back, breather deeply, and wait for a different topic–one that doesn’t involves uterii–to come up.
The link did nothing to contradict what I said. The fact that you quoted the part that proves I’m right show just how awfully stupid you are.
Baldwin is a family doc, not an ob gyn, check. Baldwin didn’t ok her flight, check. In any case, who cares if she is an ob gyn or not it just proves you fuckwits claim shit you don’t know.
And the thought that only women can decide on unborn children is fucking utterly laughable coming from pw.com. I mean, seriously? The irony is so thick I need waders. Nevermind, that’s bullshit.
you don’t actually read much here, do you?
Oh, and I assume ushie doesn’t believe male OB Gyns are reputable. You stupid shrew. Sexist!
You forgot one:
3. Assclown is a fucking nitwit.
assclown, please go find the post where we recommend outlawing abortion. Then please tell us why, if it’s a private concern of the woman only, men who are not even the biological father should be forced to pay child support. After that, we’ll have a nice discussion about choices.
assie is continuing in Sully-stick-fingers-in-ears-and-be-profane-with-people-who-don’t-buy-yer-shit-dumbglutes style.
So Bristol and Levi didn’t get married.
Why did Sarah Palin lie to America?
Well, I guess I’ll go ahead and claim victory since nobody has refuted any of my points. Thanks, morons. Sarah Palin is either reckless with an unborn child’s life, a baldfaced liar, or both. Kudos on your choice of hero! It fits quite nicely.
I sort of like that one because it means that Sarah palin made sure her daughter wasn’t punished with her grandchild by raising it herself, whereas Barack Obama would make sure his daughter wasn’t punished with his grandchild by having it killed.
Of course, Tripp gets in the way of all that, but as long as we’re going to delve into idiocy, we might as well try to drag some wisdom out of it.
you don’t actually read much here, do you?
Of course it doesn’t.
Since it has absolutely nothing to contribute (and it knows it), it’s determined to wreck the conversation for everyone else.
That makes it feel important, and allows it to forget about the utter failure that it is in real life for a while.
It’s a sad little spoiled child.
Yo, assclown: at the end of the day, we all still have lives, families, and meaningful jobs.
You have none of those, nor will you ever.
Enjoy your shit-stirring, loser.
Arguing with you is a little like playing Don’t Break the Ice with a blind man.
With a sledge hammer.
“Comment by parsnip on 1/11 @ 1:42 pm #

Parsnip, until you answer the question posed to you a long time ago, you don’t get to pose any in the same form…
I ask you the question others here have asked; Why did Obama lie to America?

32 Comment by assclown on 1/11 @ 1:11 pm #
The idea that Palin was reckless isn’t exactly controversial. At least among sane people. If you read anything other than wingnut echo chambers, you might understand this.
The Doctor stated, according to assclown’s link:
“I don’t think it was unreasonable for her to continue to travel back,†Baldwin-Johnson said.
To which assclown responds:
Well, I guess I’ll go ahead and claim victory since nobody has refuted any of my points.
Once again proving Dan Collin’s post title genius.
BECAUSE THE OB-BYN FROM SACRAMENTO HAS PRONOUNCED IT POSSIBLE!!! I mean, it’s not like a woman that’s already had four kids would know anything about pregnancy.
True dat. Abortion is unsafe for an unborn baby. Flying, not so much.
I’d like to thank you, assclown, for showing up on a thread entitled “The Enduring Power of Stupid”. It just fits. It’s like you belong here.
What are you saying, Bob?
That Sarah Palin used her daughter, her daughter’s baby daddy and her unborn grandkid for political reasons?
What a pity such a fine human being didn’t get elected.
Gee, and here I thought those fundie bastards were all about forcing them to get married right away, before they’re out of high school and all that.
Please show me where Palin said they were on a timetable, snippy. You know, a link.
God, you people are horrible debaters.
sowwy
No, I mean snippy and assclown. It’s embarrassing. I’m supposed to be taking care of Jeff’s place.
No, snippy. Bob didn’t say that. Bob said: “Why did Obama lie?”
I know you’re stupid and not too good at comprehending, so I’m here to help.
I know… it’s just they imagine us saying such interesting things…
;D
I’d switch to more cat blogging in the mean time. might motivate Jeff a bit more, as well. hee hee.
This was to be about Dougherty but our local troll has shown he belongs too.
Ignorance can be cured unless it is willful. Stupid goes to the bone and is forever. One or the other is what Dougherty is displaying, proudly.
Please show me where Palin said they were on a timetable, snippy.
So it was kinda like when Bush said he’d catch bin Laden?
We just sorta wrongly assumed it would be sooner rather than later?
Yeah, but he might rip my arms off. I’ve heard it makes typing difficult.
Link, please.
apparently so
I assumed it would be after Bristol graduated, like they have said a million times.
argh, WP doesn’t like Huffpo links?
Ok, Snippy and assclown, even though you’re “arguing” about 2 different things, both of you grab a calendar. Any will do.
assclown, the gestation of a full-term baby is closer to 10 months than 9. Go backwards from TRIPP’s birth. How many months is that? Was TRIG already born? Then your first point is stupid and wrong.
Snippy, go back anywhere on your calendar and tell me upon which day a couple should get married. GO ahead, now. By etiquette or legality or whatever, what’s the date for any random couple to be married? Any couple, not related to you? Any couple, say, in Alaska? What? there is no official wedding date for couples? How extraordinary.
As regards your second point, assclown, air travel doesn’t cause Downs syndrome. Unless it’s air travel undertaken in the Bizarro universe, and you’re already talking all kinds of crazy, so maybe that’s where you’re from, in which case I’m so sorry.
maggie
I guess “summer wedding” means something different in rootveggie’s/assie’s alternative reality.
You’ve repeated this line enough times I’m beginning to think you actually believe it, which makes me chuckle, at you, in long bouts.
Nuclear pods of Steppford redumblicans roaming around in expressionless Devo robot jerks.
ushie
you know, in going through geneology records it is interesting to note that can easily find a couple who married after the date of their eldest child’s birth.
funny how the amoral Leftcultists have hissy fits when their cartoon straw-conservatives don’t act according to their own stereotype.
Easy there, ushie.
Nobody wants Sarah Palin to run for president in 2012 more than me.
Except maybe Barack Hussein Obama.
Palin’s kids will be in need of updated wardrobes by 2012. She’s in.
All of which goes to show that it’s important that the Anchorage paper pursue this crucial story.
Great! Now why don’t you answer her question?
tell me upon which day a couple should get married
Probably before their baby is born.
The only thing that would surprise me is if Bristol Palin married her sister.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Oh, parsnip, parsnip. You’re so…Victorian…in your social outlook.
parsnip must be one of those evangelical Christians.
Osama Bin Laden has been dead for a real long time. Thanks George Bush.
Don’t feed the trolls.
Have we gotten an answer on why Obama lied to America?
Assclown may not have a vagina, but he’s certainly got a MANGINA. What a fucking whiner!
C’mon maggie and ushie, make assclown feel a little more ignorant about being pregnant and birthing babies. I want the the full Butterfly McQueen routine!
So much willful ignorance here it boggles the mind.
“assclown, the gestation of a full-term baby is closer to 10 months than 9.”
What. The. Fuck. You are an idiot. It might be 9.5 months, depending on how you count it, but it certainly isn’t “closer to 10 months”. Also, you are an idiot.
“As regards your second point, assclown, air travel doesn’t cause Downs syndrome. ”
No shit. But you know what does? Old mothers.
Let me paint you a picture. You are an older mother-to-be on her 5th kid. Your water breaks in Texas. Do you jump on a plane and take an 11 hour plane ride or do you go to a hospital since you can deliver at any time? If you say the former, I think you are a fucking liar.
I think it is telling that her doc claims to NOT have been asked if it was safe to fly after her water broke. I find that hard to believe. Palin didn’t just call her doctor to chat. The doctor denies being asked because IT WOULD BE RECKLESS TO FLY 11 HOURS IN THAT CONDITION WITH A HIGH RISK PREGNANCY. The doctor knows this and won’t say she gave the go ahead. There is a big difference between “I said it was ok” and “it is reasonable”. Weasel words.
Amazing that you don’t make such a stink about the willful ignorance of those who claim Trig is Bristol’s baby.
This ex-post facto posturing kind of reminds me of the golfer who misses an easy two foot putt and then demands that he be credited with one less stroke than he’s already actually accrued since in theory he certainly wouldn’t ordinarily miss a two foot putt.
Did you even bother to read the actual post up there, assclown? You know, the one linking to and quoting the fucking Anchorage Daily News?
Dan, fwiw, I think you’re doing a fine job, caretaking Jeff’s blog.
I commend you for allowing these butt-bags like thor, and alphie/parsnip/assclown to exercise their freedom of speech here.
Must seem at times to be a hair shirt sorta thing, I’d guess.
Thanks, irongrampa. Honestly, most of the time it doesn’t bother me at all. Sometimes, I’m even puzzled by how little it bothers me.
Like Phlogiston, for instance, or maybe Caloric, so little it bothers You Dan?
Oy, I must be thinking about globes or something, what with all that errant capitalization…..
God, Phlogiston? Now that drives me nuts.
It’s nice of assclown to reinforce the title of this post. I wonder if he wants to provide further assistance and delve into the matter of rape kits in Wassila.
I’m still interested in that secret Palin time machine.
You remember, the one that allows her to ban books that haven’t even been published yet.
Dr. Assclown believes that “leaking amniotic fluid” is the same as “water breaking”
Um…no.
http://en.allexperts.com/q/ObGyn-Pregnancy-issues-1007/amniotic-fluid-leak.htm
Hysterical assie has zip experience with pregnancies…and I dare say with any vagina except the one he slipped out of.
Goodness, assie, where is your degree? How many babies have you delivered? How many pregnancies have you had? How many OB/GYN’s have you had discussions with?
Please, where is your expertise that leaking of amniotic fluid well before the due date and without clear signs of labor is “imminent” child birth? Or the exact same thing as the rupture of the amniotic membranes with a gushing of water during labor?
Better call up your mommy and beg her for the details of your birth.
I didn’t believe there could possibly be anyone stupider than parsnip, but by God assclown is going to give it a go.
assie
you don’t get it. I don’t have to show “normal” actions for Gov. Palin. She and her doctor made their decisions based on the circumstances of her case. You’ve shrieked hysterically about things you have no clue about and have not proved she at anytime put herself or Trig – successfully delivered and healthy – at any unnecessary risk.
Though, it is amusing to watch the Leftcult try to make Gov Palin “unfit” when they are also condemning her for not aborting the Down’s kid in the first place.
Come on, assie, how many OB/GYN’s have you personally talked with?
Well, let’s see. Sarah went home and had her baby in a very normal fashion, without incident.
What else you got, asshat?
Still arguing with the pin dancing fairies in your head? Carry on.
You’re too kind, Darleen. I suspect assclown might be an asshole baby.
I’d rather read the opinions of doctors on the internet
Because “doctors” on the ‘nets know so much about Gov. Palin’s case.
Oh, btw, any doctor on the net that claims to diagnosis without any access to med records skates close (if not crosses) that ethical line into “passer-by diagnosis”.
sad little assie, go talk to your mommy.
http://www.buzzle.com/articles/leaking-amniotic-fluid.html
Sometimes when there is a small tear in the amniotic sac, it may heal itself over a period of time and the leaking may simply stop of its own accord.
——–
Yes, assie, absolutely no difference between PROM and SROM, leaking and gushing, labor or false labor…
OMIGAWD PALIN WASN’T IN LABOR, SHE WAS IN CONSTANT CONTACT WITH HER DOCTOR, SHE HAD AN UNINVENTFUL DELIVERY AND TRIG WAS HEALTHY BUT I HAVE TO SCREAM ABOUT HER ANYWAY CUZ SHE’S JUST A HORRIBLE HORRIBLE INAUTHENTIC WOMAN!!!!ELEVENTY!!!
Well, if I were a proper lefty, I’d fly to Kansas and see Dr. Tiller to have it killed. Aside from that, what’s Downs got to do with it? BTW, it wasn’t “possibly”. The Palins knew Trig was Downs.
had a gush of fluid
when you start with an error of fact, everything that follows is false.
Just how many of those little buggers do fit a dancing on the head of that pin in your head there?
Yes. Because I’m talking to a rabid, hateful fool. That always puts me in a playful mood.
Do you think it wasn’t? Because it was. Ipso facto.
I do believe I love this thread. Thanks, Dan.
I think that the majority of obstetricians…
Do understand the concept of a majority, assclown? It is different from unanimous, and means that some obstetricians would advise differently.
Do you think it was a coincidence she delivered 23 or whatever hours after the leak?
No more of a coincidence than Palin thinking she had plenty of time to get home and delivery the child in comfortable circumstances and being perfectly correct.
I’d get on the mysterious indeterminate plane, asshole. And then I’d pray to a vengeful God, because that always works.
END OF THREAD!!!!
It just isn’t registering with you that Palin made it home in plenty of time to have the baby, is it? I guess hind sight isn’t 20/20 if you are an assclown.
Because when you’re leaking amniotic fluid, you might as well be dying.
END OF THREAD!!!
You know what? It’s a goddamn shame that this kid died. Stupid Ugandans.
END OF THREAD!!!
What was that thingie a while back about reality based somethin’ or other? Where reality based had to do with fairies and pins and dancing and the like?
Oh, so you really did make that putt that you missed there, is that it?
Barack, I said, you don’t want to get mixed up in any land deals with Tony Rezko. Barack, I said, are you sure that you really want to back Hot Rod for governor?
Barack, I said, don’t you think it might be a problem on the national stage to have a race-baiting pastor?
Bill Richardson? What’s with that?
Did he listen to me? The boy is reckless.
You must have missed the part where you’re trying to turn a perfectly calm, natural birth into child abuse/endangerment. Because of the logic.
END OF THREAD!!!
Oh, I forgot to say FUCK YOU! But then, I really wasn’t thinking that, so I’m not sure I was required to say it.
END OF THREAD!!!
Results don’t matter.
It’s all in how you keep the score I guess B Moe.
You should claim you are the King of the World. That would be frickin’ cool.
Is that the same as the BUSH LIED!! consensus, or is it more like the AGW consensus?
do hate people who would hold Palin up as some uber-woman for putting her unborn child at risk
More amusing stuff from Leftcultists who never fail to lecture the rest of us rubes that A Womyn’s decisions about Hyr Own Body(tm) are sacrosanct.
I’m gonna go check the Daily Dish. Because I can handle the truth!!!
Assie’s “majority of ob’s” and “medical consensus” is from the same school as the Gorical’s AGW-the debate is OVAH- ‘scientists’
I betcha
I trust cynn’s opinion. cynn, if your ladybox is gushing like an axe wound, do you jump on a plane or go to the hospital?
Wow! 2 links in a day from Dan! Thank you again!
“Assie’s “majority of ob’s†and “medical consensus†is from the same school as the Gorical’s AGW-the debate is OVAH- ’scientists’
I betcha”
You’ll never know because you didn’t check. Your female intuition tells you all you need to know about Palin, Princess Warrior. And it feelz reel guud!
It is similar to AGW, Darleen. You are an idiot savant. If it just “feels wrong” to you, it must be. All that fancy learnin’ is just tricks by those elite people from colleges. Thank goodness you’ll never have to sully your mind with facts or knowledge.
Funny how these folks who think that young Trig should’ve had his skull punctured with a pair of scissors and his brain vacuumed out are oh-so-concerned about his mom flying while leaking a little amniotic fluid.
oh, I don’t know nothin’ bout birthin’ babies.
assie
I don’t do passer-by diagnosis, that seems to be your gig. Certainly the unethical mess of it is certainly in line with your hysterical amorality.
Is assclown Andrew Sullivan? Could that explain his total cluelessness about human reproduction? He seems as clueless, just not as shrill and over the top.
So now, in addition to being an expert on politics, psychology, and the Mycroft effin’ Holmes of the left, assclown in now a fully qualified, and wikipedia liscenced, OB-GYN!
Is there no limit to the knowledge that the googl-acle can provide you? Are there no bounds to your wikipedia expertise?
I do know that your gall and lack of shame is unbounded!
Thanks maggie. Better late than never.
there are! as of yet, he has been unable to tell us who Phil Graham is and why this Mr. Graham is responsible for the terrible economy.
sorry, I had rehearsal.
Hmmmmmmm…

You might be onto something daleyrocks…
A
ndrewSullivan’S clown. Sockpuppet being already taken by Gleen.The Everly Brothers fits.
Don’t want his lo-o-o-o-ove anymore.
Don’t want his ki-i-i-i-isses, that’s for sure.
He dies each time
He hears this sound:
“Here he co-o-o-o-omes. That’s Andy’s clown.”
He’s gotta stand tall.
You know a man can’t crawl.
But he knows when he tells lies
And we hear ’em all the time,
He’s not a man at all.

When you see him shed a tear
And you know it’s not sincere,
Don’tcha think it’s kinda sad
That he’s acting oh so bad,
But why would Andy care?
Don’t want his lo-o-o-o-ove anymore.
Don’t want his ki-i-i-i-isses, that’s for sure.

That’s Andy’s clown.
That’s Andy’s clown.”
Are you blind, assclown? Or is that pure stupid?
Well now, I think this important thing we’ve established here is that Mrs. Palin did indeed birth Trig. I would now hope that Assclown, Parsnip, and Thor would run on over to FDL, KOS, and Gay boy’s sites and spread the word. They got CRED over there you know.
Cause they’re thinkers and all. I believe we can now deem this thread a success.
The stupid it burns. Leak or gush (PROM), the baby isn’t in IMMINENT DANGER. Many women have a total gush, and don’t start labor for several hours if not the next day or so. Someone’s watched too many Hollywood versions of labor.
BTW, my water has broken with two of my 5 deliveries. Neither time was I in labor. The first time I needed to be induced to get labor going (and the second was a section, so who knows. )
Of course, the exception is when your water breaks during labor, but this obviously wasn’t the case.
Ah yes, assclown is the wishful dilletante that the internet makes an expert on anything!
I asked Dr. Mrs. DarthRove.
The doctor.
The board-certified, emergency medicine specialist, honest-to-goodness practicing-for-15-years and-has-had-a-real-live-baby from-her-real-live-vagina doctor.
After describing the situation, her response was, “Fmeh, whatever.”
Feel free to bring Teh Outrage!!!!11!!111!!
B-B-But DarthRove…
Dr. MrsDarthRove’s assessment flies in the face of assclowns wiki-knowledge!1!!1!!eleventy
How can that be? How can a mere 15 years professional experience, as well as direct personal experience, outweigh that gained by skimming an internet essay..?
I mean, with knowledge like that, assclown may sit on your state’s liscencing board!
nd “imminent danger†isn’t the standard that determines if someone should go to the hospital. A woman on her 5th kid who ruptures her membranes will usually go into labor and deliver in a matter of hours. Fact.
And yet … she didn’t! FACT. HOW could that possibly be?
And, I wrote PROM, because I meant PROM. I was unaware she was preterm. Basically because the whole Trig Fetish is simply bizarre.
Regardless, she was leaking slowly. You are aware, yes, that amniotic fluid is replenished, yes? There have been women who had a slow leak for months.
You are aware, yes, that amniotic fluid is replenished, yes?
I seem to recall that a big portion of it is urine, once the baby’s kidneys start working.
I could be wrong, though. Unlike the Trig Truther brigade, I’m not an ob-gyne.
Sayeth assclown: “A woman on her 5th kid who ruptures her membranes will usually go into labor and deliver in a matter of hours. Fact.”

The Enduring Power of Stupid
Well Pablo, at least that kid has his stick-to-it-ness going for him/her…
But, alas, sticking with stupidity and closed minded-ness is no way to go through life…
50% of all remaining pregnancies deliver each subsequent week after PPROM.
Oooh! Flashback to Calculus I!
We are given that the half-life is 1 week (168 hours), so
N(t) = N0(0.5)^(t/168)
If we set N0 to 1 (100% will still be pregnant at time 0), we get:
N(t) = (0.5)^(t/168)
Let’s say we have a three hour flight.
We get:
N(t) = (0.5)^(3/168) = 0.988
98.8% of the women will still be pregnant after the flight.
I was told there would be no math on this blog.
Think of PW as a first-rate university education without the tuition, Carin. :-)
REally, what’s the knowledge and experience of an actual DOCTOR compared to someone with madd google skillz.
Yeah, ‘coz they don’t know anything about what’s, like, an EMERGENCY or not.
So, what’s the proper paddle voltage you use to shock a flatline, chuckles?
Only idiots.
And just to stop you googling, it’s a trick question. You don’t shock a flatline. Flatline = dead. Despite what you see on TV.
So what was your bad ER experience? You went in for a bad cold and got ticked that the antibiotics you demanded they prescribe despite the fact they won’t work didn’t work right away?
I know you are, but what am I?
Yeah, like “within a week.” Not, as you stated to be FACT, a matter of hours.
And by “my algorithm”, you mean the article that YOU linked to. Gotcha.
I think you’re a fucking moron who ought to read the first sentence of the second paragraph I quoted, because it’s the part you seem to think I “chose to omit”.
The Enduring Power of Stupid
Still trying to make that putt you missed? Wow. Actual outcomes won’t do. Must. Have. Fairies.
Personally, after giving birth to four kids, getting ready to have my fifth, I would have been not upset at all to give birth on a plane. For the vast majority of births, the OB doc just catches anyway.
Regarding the facts – has it been determined that it was a rupture or merely a leak? What do the facts support? It is claimed to be a leak, and thus all your mad google skillz are for naught, because she didn’t have PPROM.
In addition, exactly what WEEK of development did she deliver? It states the baby was a month early, but PPROM isn’t that first “P” unless it’s before 37 weeks, which is awfully close to a month early. AFter that 37 mark, it’s merely PROM.
If I had a small leak? I would go home. Fact. If I was past 37 week mark, I would be ok having a baby w/o a doctor present, as would many other sensible women in this country who realize how doctors and hospitals have over-medicalized the entire L & D experience. I wouldn’t be surprised to discover that Sarah was of a similar mindset.
PRAM? Try zapping it.
Ooooh, Zing. Ouch.
I should rely on wiki and gooooogle I guess. Screw that whole “able to converse intelligently with people what know a whole lot more about me in certain disciplines” thing.
Who’s blocking your comments?
Fairies Dan, fairies.
There most certainly is a difference. My sister’s friend leaked from her second trimester on. I’ve had a leak, and I’ve had a complete rupture. If you think there’s no difference, well then it’s a shame you were there to help me clean up the rupture.
95% will start labor w/in 24 hrs— yea, so wha?. Labor- for even women on their fifth – takes several hours.
I’m not twisting anything, and you have no clue regarding my ideas on birthing, because this isn’t a birthing board.
Someone is awfully concerned about the Palin vagina and it’s healthy output. Obsessed, you might say.
I wonder why.
Yeah, yeah, Carin. Assclown has Google and all you have is 5 kids! And Google. What do you know about pregnancy, labor and delivery? :-P
Yea, I suppose it’s time for me to post my mea culpa….
she didn’t have PPROM
So she didn’t even have the condition that, if she had had it, would’ve produced a whopping 1.2% chance of going into labor on the flight?
Assmaggot’s taking a severe beating here.
I think he TrollHammered himself.
Just for giggles, what percentage chance would have been low enough for her to fly and for you not to consider her reckless?
Please quote that which you think says that. It does not.
Classy. And…oh, what’s the word? Oh, wrong.
FALSE DICHOTOMY BITCHES!!!
gawd, like he needs any other response. or did he answer Pablo’s question from way back and I missed it?
oh, and Carin is, apparently, a mutant.
Carin, there is no difference. If you have a leak or you have a rupture, labor may proceed quickly and the baby and mother are at a high risk for infection.
Wrong … again. Boy, is this getting old.
And, risk of infection doesn’t set in until 24 hours AFTER the rupture.
Man, you women are so stupid, I can’t believe any of you really managed to have children of your own.
I’m glad you had 4 kids, and I think you are lying out of your ass about choosing to take the flight. Liar.
Five kids, and I’m not lying. Obviously I’ve never been in that situation, but I have refused to go to the hospital when the doc wanted me to. I hid in my house for an entire weekend when my OB wanted me show up for an inducement when I was a week overdue. You have no clue about my attitudes regarding labor/birth. There is nothing dangerous about PROM. And, usually it’s bad to go to the hospital because the doctors WILL heavy-hand you into inducing because you (almost always) won’t be in labor or it will be proressiving too slowly to accomodate the OB’s weekend golf game.
Well, that’s what assclown’s link says. But he knows better. Labor and infection in a matter of hours, I tells ya!!!
