comparison at the same time between her previous pregnancies and her most current one:

[Max_powers94]

at first i thought this was some bullshit but this whole story is fishy for all the people who think this is nonsense would a pregnant woman at 44 have her water break give a speech then fly 8 hours from texas to Seattle then fly to alaska then drive 45 minutes then go to the hospital to deal with it? GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yo nobody has called her on this shit cause she is from westbubblefuck alaska but she is a vp pick now and people actually do investigations rather than call the moose farmer for his take on todays events

Also,

Checking with the Anchorage High School that Bristol Palin attended, reporters were given word that her family had taken Bristol out of school due to contracting infectious mononucleosis. The amount of time Bristol was absent shifts from five to eight months.

Mono can last anywhere from two weeks to three months, but an eight month infection is a freak oddity. Yet it remains a common excuse given by girls in private & Catholic schools around the nation when pregnancy comes into play. Not the first time, not the last time".

1. Wow - hmm...well THAT is something...

I have to admit - this little comparison is the most convincing teaser I've seen yet...

Do women always carry the same way or does it vary - I was under the impression that they got bigger each time.

2. She is definitiely not the type to hide a pregnancy.

Much more likely to flaunt it. You're right, the cover story is laughable.

3. In Britain the Democrats Look Frightened

I find it really amazing how much wider her nose is in that photo, almost as if it was 'tampered' with.

I MUST say this, or the democrats are going to look like right wallies....

I am a Mum of a baby that was diagnosed with Down Syndrome after she was born. She was MUCH smaller than my previous pregnancy and as is often the case, she arrived 4-5 weeks early (often in the cases of DS).

The other photos on another thread showed a photo of Sarah 15 weeks prior to giving birth to Trig and she is MUCH larger than I EVER got in my pregnancy. I was always asked (even in A&E by a doctor) if I was certain I was really pregnant. This is bog standard for a DS pregnancy.

Also, people have posted photos of the family from 2006 to compare to another photo they are so sure the daughter looks pregnant. Well, look at the one that is 'verified' as from 2006 to show Piper's age difference. The girl who you all are so certain is pregnant in the other photo is actually LARGER in the one from 2006. She is just built that way.

Also, having a belly button like that is NOT a sign of pregnancy lol as the 'nurse who works with paediatricians' said. I have FOUR sister in laws that ALL had that exact belly button as they were growing up. In fact, two of them have now had children and during their pregnancies their belly buttons SHRANK.

And, saying that the husband looks so Caucasian and the baby looks more Inuit (not sure of spelling) is so ridiculous! My husband's sister is much darker skinned than any of the rest of the 9 of them. They have a great grandmother that is Jewish and she has her colouring. She also looks like her when she was the same age. Don't you people know anything about genetics and families?

I'm British(and yes, the moderators can do a search on my ISP so you can confirm I'm British) so I really don't care who wins the election but please, from across the pond you all look like you are so frightened she may help McCain win it is pathetic!

As for the length of time for mono, we don't call it that here but honestly, even if she was out of school for an extended time there is no way that the Mum could fake that she gave birth and no doctor is going to put their career on the line for something like that. Honestly, find something better to spread so you don't look so 'grasping at hairs'.

4. Concern troll?

Is there a pizza in your future?

[purgingtheliars]

8. troll pizza, what

i don't know how to respond unless you can clarify. i am not doing anything but hoping to point out what people here in the uk think of the mud slinging goes on in us politics

[Midlodemocrat]

7. LOL. You can't make this shit up.

5. Thanks for the comparison photos. It does it for me. This woman was NOT

pregnant in the right photo. Why she faked the pregnancy to cover for her daughter is disturbing. Obviously, she wouldn't let her daughter have an abortion. She must have been so overcome with shame that she concocted the story. This says a lot about Palin's beliefs about women - that it's shameful for a girl to have sex -- so much so that she fakes a pregnancy herself and claims the kid as her own. This is sick. This is not magnanimous. You'd think it was the 1950s. Think about the dynamics of this family where the girl has to pretend to be the sister of her own child. Creepy.

6. There seems to be a problem. From my research so far, Bristol goes to high school in Juneau

and this article says Anchorage.

She supposedly attends Juneau-Douglas High School.

Bristol Palin made the Honor Roll.

9. The mono story I think is the oddest part of it.

No one has just mono for even 5 months. No one.

Mild symptoms can last for a while in some people but when it's gone on for more than three to four weeks, other issues should be looked into, such as fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. Tests should also be done to rule out organ damage from a prolonged virus. When mono lasts 4-6 months, it's called chronic EBV infection - but that's never been mentioned by the Palin family, has it?

Since the daughter seemingly "recovered perfectly," it definitely puts the story to test, as any of the factors involved in a prolonged illness wouldn't just disappear, they would be an ongoing problem for her.
