Comments on: Palingate http://simmeringhope.com/2008/09/03/palingate/ Hope is the expectation that something outside of ourselves, something or someone external, is going to come to our rescue and we will live happily ever after. - Dr. Robert Anthony Sat, 19 May 2012 20:12:29 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.2 By: RogerHWerner http://simmeringhope.com/2008/09/03/palingate/#comment-846 RogerHWerner Wed, 15 Oct 2008 16:24:27 +0000 http://simmeringhope.com/2008/09/03/palingate/#comment-846 I found the circumstances surrounding the birth of Palin's son Trig a little hard to understand. I'm not a mother but I was rather intimately involved with the birth of my children (one of whom is Down's Syndrome) and there is no way my wife would have behaved remotely similar to Palin before Sarah was born (Sarah is our youngest girl with DS). Kathy was 32 when Sarah was born. There seems to be an awful lot of odd coincidences in this matter not the lest of important of which is her daughter's one year absence from school because of mononucleosis? Yes, and I'm sure the dog ate Bristol's homework too...Mononucleosis rarely lasts more than a couple of months with relapses not unusual. Claiming that the child was sick for a year and couldn't attend school presumably because this is an infectious disease is something of a stretch. There's are many reasons to distrust Palin mostly because the woman is simply incompetent. But it also appears as if the purported reformer is being investigated for using the contractors who built the Wasilla sorts center to build her house, and, this contractor amazingly built it for free. And these same contractor was the contractor who made the renovations on Ted Stevens' home. I caution that this is rumor and I found no evidence for any official investigation--yet.
