Awright, who won the Track Palin Shotgun Wedding pool?
Please collect your winnings at the front desk before close of business today.

Sarah Palin on track to be a grandmother again

Track Palin, 22, the oldest son of the former governor and "First Dude" Todd, tied the knot a few months ago in Alaska with his high school sweetheart, Britta Hanson.

{snip}

The notoriously salacious blog Gawker, which published the photo, quipped: "Britta looks to be several months along--perhaps more than two months?"

Day-um, if nothing else, them there Palins sure are fertile! :scared:

20. You can take the Palins out of the trailer park
but you can't take the trailer park out of the Palins.

32. Sarah is a terrible shot, but I guess the spread of a shotgun negates her poor aim.

4. That's actually a very traditional Scandinavian name -
Edited on Thu Jul-21-11 08:03 AM by Hell Hath No Fury
I have many Brittas in my family tree. Her last name is Hanson, also another traditional Scandinavian name. Han's Son is the origin.

51. Why do you have an issue
with what folks name their kids? How is it affecting your life?
Your free to name you kids whatever you like. So are they. I don't really see the big deal. I think Britta is a very nice name.

53. Because it's more hypocrisy from the right. They ridicule African American names, but embrace all
that is Palin.

58. Britta is a nice, legit name with a history.
Track Enfield Palin is not so nice. Parents, of course, can name children as they please, but novelty names are just silly. So what if I criticize it? If you love it, no biggie.

7. Looks about right --
Perhaps that is why Palin suddenly disappeared and got very very quiet. Two out of wedlock births may have been too much for them to manage publicity-wise.

12. Nah. She has no second thoughts about it. She doesn't see herself as a hypocrite.
They're doing the 'right' thing by getting married so in her eyes it cancels out the sin and she thinks they should be praised. If it happened to somebody that didn't say they were a Christian, it would be shameful.

I know people like her. They always justify everything concerning them, and condemn everyone else.

There's a freeper thread on this and they're praising this to high heaven, AND picking on Chelsea Clinton of all people! That's how warped these hypocrites are.

18. If that's what she looks like at two months...
I feel sorry for her when she hits her second and third trimester. :wow:

Some really small women start showing at about 2 weeks (it seems), let alone two MONTHS, but Britta doesn't appear to be one of the super-petite ladies.

10. When will little Curb* Palin be born?
* Just my guess. Could also be Field, Street, Cabbage, Group, Sky, Tent, Rake, Scupper, or Brick.

Maybe the Palins thought that Richard Scarry's "Busy Town" was a book of baby names?

11. It was so obvious when they had the little wedding on the ski slope or wherever it was. Nobody else
in the pictures except the parents. No bristle, twig, nobody. You know how much Palin loves attention. She would have had a big hoe-down in D.C if she could have.

I still say what's up with that track kid. Palin sure hides him. With his military service it's strange that she's not pimping him out like crazy.

"Brittle" would have been great too, except it sounds too much like Mom's name.

60. If Sarah and Bristol would STFU about abstinence-only, I wouldn't have a problem with any of it.
Sarah and Todd eloped when they found she was pregnant.

Bristol and Track, apparently, both had pre-marital buns in the oven. Bristol chose to raise her kid alone/co-parent. As long as the kid is taken care of, fine.

Track got married to create a family for the kid.

All of those things are fine, as long as they're not being total flaming HYPOCRITES like they are now.

If they'd just stop talking about abstinence, I don't care who's pregnant before marriage. Stuff happens. It's cold in Alaska ... maybe it's too cold to get out of bed and get a condom!
