"It Came from Wasilla" vanity

Historic photo of Sarah Palin at the Republican Governors Association conference in Grapevine, Texas in April 2008. Right before the "wild ride" and Trig's "official" birth date. Ms. Palin and her husband kept the pregnancy secret for seven months and did not even tell family members that prenatal tests indicated that the child had Down syndrome.

"It Came from Wasilla"

Vanity Fair By Todd S. Purdum August 2009

The article is pretty critical of Palin but the author, Todd S. Purdum, misses a few important pieces. ( emphasis from Immoral Minority ) by Gryphen
Here are a few notable excerpts from the article:
excerpts of family excerpts!
Her crazy Wassilabilly family:
The clouds of tabloid conflict and controversy that swirl around her and her extended clan—the surprise pregnancies, the two-bit blood feuds, the tawdry in-laws and common-law kin caught selling drugs or poaching game—give her family a singular status in the rogues’ gallery of political relatives. By comparison, Billy Carter, Donald Nixon, and Roger Clinton seem like avatars of circumspection. Palin’s life has sometimes played out like an unholy amalgam of Desperate Housewives and Northern Exposure.
Author does manage to reveal just how ridiculous, and bizarre, Sarah Palin's official pregnancy cover story is at least:
But there were ominous signs—indications of an erratic nature. This is the third thing McCain could have discovered about Palin—a woman, after all, who kept a pregnancy secret for seven months, flew all the way home from Texas to Alaska with a near-full-term baby while leaking amniotic fluid, and then finally drove the 45 minutes from Anchorage to a hospital in Wasilla, all so that the child could be born in the 49th state.
Aahh the truthfulness of young Levi Johnston!:
After Levi told Tyra Banks that he had often spent the night in the Palin home, in the same room as Bristol, and assumed that the governor knew they were having sex, Palin, through her spokeswoman, released a blistering statement expressing disappointment “that Levi and his family, in a quest for fame, attention, and fortune, are engaging in flat-out lies, gross exaggeration, and even distortion of their relationship.” On the CBS Early Show, days later, Johnston seemed resigned. “They said I didn’t live there. I ‘stayed there,”’ he said. “I was like, O.K., well, whatever you want to call it. I had my stuff there.”
I encourage you to read the entire article. It is very good, despite completely missing the "babygate" boat.by Gryphen

Tight ab Sarah proves she is pregnant here in this video by JaneDoex911

Elan Frank traveled to Alaska to interview Sarah Palin for two days early in April 2008. Less than two weeks later Sarah supposedly gave birth to Trig Paxson Van Palin. After a little belly-slapping, she talks about how easy this entire pregnancy has been, and we get a glimpse of why it might have been such a cakewalk.

Purdum is in the innermost circle of MSM Washington journalists. His wife is Dee Dee Myers, and one of his neighbors is Karl Rove. In fact, when Purdum interviewed Rove a couple years ago, the chat took place at Rove's home, and Purdum was served sausage made from a deer that Rove's son Andrew shot. Purdum did a pretty good job demonstrating SP's unfitness for office. And believe me, he doesn't want to have TriG-Gate attached to his obituary.
