National Enquirer is on Palin. After Edwards can you just dismiss the NQ?

Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin attempted to quietly have her daughter Bristol get married before news of her pregnancy leaked out, the NATIONAL ENQUIRER is reporting exclusively in its new issue.


Palin planned for the wedding to take place right after the Republican National Convention and then she was going to announce the pregnancy.

But Bristol, 17, refused to go along with the plan and that sparked a mother-daughter showdown over the failed coverup.


The ultra-conservative governor’s announcement about her daughter’s pregnancy came hours after The ENQUIRER informed her representatives and family members of Levi Johnston, the father of Bristol’s child, that we were aware of the pregnancy and were going to break the news.

In a preemptive strike Palin released the news, creating political shockwaves.

4. I agree, but I believe Bristol had a bit to do with her humiliation.

3. Is it a greater indictment of the populace or the media...

...that the National Enquirer is now breaking the news that is shaping political careers?

5. Hey, the media let the NE do their dirty work, and exposed Edwards ...

the Repukes asked for it ... I don't blame the kid ... if the Mommy didn't want her life f*cked with, she shoulda ducked out ASAP ...

but I believe that the "media" will roll over and play dead shortly ... "Hannah" is coming ...

6. "NE" Confirms! It's all about "Sarah, Mom' Ambitions"...and no one else...n/t

So it wasn't those nasty liberal bloggers after all--it was the good old scandal sheet of record.

Amazing.
