Sarah Palin's 5th Child Rumor, Bristol Palin
Buzz in the newsroom is that John McCain's vice-presidential pick, Sarah Palin's 5th child, Trig Palin, actually belongs to her teenage daughter, Bristol Palin. The Moderate Voice reports,
[Governor Palin's] oldest girl is rumored to have actually been the one who had the last baby, the one with Down's Syndrome. She was taken out of school the last 4 or 5 months of her mother’s pregnancy.
On March 5th, 2008 Alaska's Republican Governor, Sarah Palin, announced to the media that she was 7 months pregnant with her 5th child. She is currently 44.
Palin's daughter Bristol is 16 and attends an Anchorage high school. Students who have attended class with her report that she has been out of school for months, claiming a prolonged case of mono.
Palin does not appear pregnant in any recent photographs. The announcement came as quite a shock to people who had worked closely with her, and have been quoted as saying that she did not appear pregnant whatsoever during the prior 7 months.
Here is an excerpt from ireports,
Sarah Palin went into labor in Dallas just before she was due to deliver a keynote address at the Republican Governors' Energy Conference, and flew to Seattle, then Alaska while still in labor.Supposedly, she was in labor during the 8 hour flight, and the crew and attendants did not know.
Quote from newsminer:
" Governor Palin was extremely pleasant to flight attendants and her stage of pregnancy was not apparent by observation as she didn't show any signs of distress," Boren said.
Since these rumors have begun circulating, the Alaska Department of State has taken down all photos of the governor and her family from the state's website.
Above is a picture of Governor Palin at home with her family in Wasilla. From left is Piper, 5, husband Todd, Willow, 12 and at right is Bristol, 16.
