Waterbreakgate / Babygate - A Post Mortem


Now that the election is over we need to make a few final comments on the unresolved issue of Trig Palin's parentage.

I still believe that Mooselini is not the mother but what we learned from her during the campaign certainly opens another explanation to some credibility.

In August we assumed Palin was a normal politician and we learned she is an ignorant, incurious, inexperienced, small town mayor whose appeal and image are all about looks and being like a bitchy high school girl. The findings from the Legislatures 268 page ethics report confirm all the behavioral issues in spades and recent reports on her ignorance of the most basic civics, the role of the VP et al tell the rest of the story.

Clearly Palin is a ruthlessly ambitious narcissist who continues to focus on herself and not people who helped her or her family. Her rogue behavior the last few weeks with the McCain campaign shows her real stripes which we learned she displayed in throwing every person in AK who ever helped her or got in her way.

Obviously the trip to TX at 8 months pregnant was totally politically motivated for both the VP job she was lobbying for and had hired a publicist to help her with. Alll the attendees were governors that were on the VP list and the meeting was with oil/gas execs and was very secretive. Clearly her pipeline agenda was furthered here as well.

To her the trip and her behavior in flying home was clearly worth the risk and we have seen now in her past behavior around her ex brother in law Wooten, Walt Monegan and a number of questionable ethics issues like expenses, office renovations et al that everything is all about her.

As such the conclusion that Palin putting her unborn, downs diagnosed child at risk was either purposeful or simply driven by her ego and narcissism is at least a plausible option. Her intellectual ignorance probably did not help here either.

2 months ago I refused to believe any adult would purposely behave as she did and endanger an unborn baby. Now it is at least an option that fits with the narcissistic, self centered, overly ambitious woman we have learned a lot about.

I am not ready to say she endangered Trig's life on purpose, she probably assumed that God would protect them or her witch doctor preacher would....or not.

I doubt we will ever know for sure but it is clear that Palin is capable of anything as long as it helps her further her own blind ambition.
