Daily Kos tries to cancel P.D.S. alert

We noted the nutroots’ deepening Palin Derangement Syndrome over the weekend, topped by a diarist at the Daily Kos who’s been spreading disgusting, bottom-of-the-barrel rumors — picked up by the excitable and shameless Andrew Sullivan — about Gov. Sarah Palin’s youngest child and attacking one of Palin’s daughters as the mother of Trig.

The Free Republic fights back with photos of a very pregnant Gov. Palin in late February. I linked to an April blog post from an airline passenger who met the pregnant governor on a flight from Fairbanks. It is unbelievably surreal that this dirtbag Kossack rumor has to be debunked.

Even another Kos diarist is now trying to undo the damage. Accompanied by the photo the Freepers found, the diarist headlined a post this morning: “Sarah Palin Baby Story Ender.” The diarist insists: “Unless someone has counter evidence, we can drop this crap now.”

The diarist is arguing with his/her fellow tinfoilers about whether Palin is wearing a “fake pregnancy suit” and commenters are still insisting that Palin’s daughter was showing and the governor was not. And in an update, the diarist — no doubt feeling pressure from the paranoid zealots in the cesspool — is polling readers on whether the post should be deleted. Nearly 30 percent of readers think the post attempting to debunk the rumor should be deleted.

Truly, truly unhinged.

You really can’t cure stupid.

From the comments in the alternate universe known as the Daily Kos:

Daughter showing – Mom not showing (10+ / 0-)

It’s not hard to find photos of the family where the daughter seems to be showing and Mom does not seem to be showing. The photos are not necessarily from 2008, but from the ages of the kids, they can’t be from very long ago.

There are several different pictures taken on different days of the whole family. The ones I saw were part of the video on three YouTube videos, by three separate people.

At the very least, there is something strange going on here.

“Strange,” indeed. These people are insane.

Refusing to back down:

DING DING DING (0+ / 0-)

None of us have any clue whether there’s any truth to this rumor. This diary doesn’t come close to answering the question.

It’s one picture taken on an uncertain date, and the poster initially got it wrong as to who took the picture. There are other pictures posted here by others that raise serious suspicions. I’d like to compare the dates of those photos w/ the date of this photo, and I’d like even more to see additional photos taken in the interim.

Team McCain made an impulsive last-minute decision b/c they saw their #s cratering during the DNC. I have little doubt that the decision will come to haunt them. Whether this story is what haunts them most of all remains to be seen.

Some men see things as they are and ask why. I see things that never were and ask why not?

Had an accident turning into a prenatal clinic in February, and looked visibly pregnant when last seen in December 2007. The date of that photo mysteriously backdated to a year previous–just today. Nothing strange or whacky here. Yup.

    brooklyn red,

    Have you read Alan Colmes explanation of his post on his blog (liberal land) he removed. It seems like Alan, is a classic case. I know the joke is, that liberalism is a disease…but their might be clinical proof :)

    Why give them any appearance of being at all relevant? They are not, and we have much better things to do than waste our time on dysfunctional children. How about a topic on all that we owe Bush for? How about a topic on the republicans still in Washington? How about a topic on how democrats are driving many Americans into bankruptcy with their maintaining high gasoline prices? Instead we dive into KOS crap. Sheesh!

    They are supposedly democrats. Leave them to the democrats to deal with.

    I understand that one time her dog might have had worms. We can’t have a woman serve as VP who’s had a dog that might have had worms. She’s finished, all washed up.

    rob/nero it’s ok to quote me on this.
    Alan Combs e-mailed me on this, said Dan Rather had given him documents proving it to be so.

    Stating that “Those that die without Christ have a horrible, horrible surprise” is not earth-shattering or proof of a ‘Jeremiah Wright’ moment. It is a basic tenet of Christianity. We believe that Christ came to earth and died for our sins so that we could be saved from etrnal damnation. Without that premise, Christianity has no reason to exist.

    My thoughts exactly. When I saw the headline I couldn’t believe they would attempt to use something you’ll hear in even the most conservative and low-key Christian pulpits.

    One Kos post asked if people would want Sarah Palin to teach their kids about sex. Hell yes! Here is a woman who teaches responsibility for your actions whereas Obama see’s that responsibility as a “punishment”.

    Good catch by #18 above.

    Judging by his extreme leftist rhetoric, my guess is ‘NoodleyAppendage’ is Bernadine Dohrn’s pet name for her hubby.

    Before I read the comment of “Sergeant Tim (#195),” I was ready to dismiss the mental piffle as merely just another trifle from the Daily Caustic.

    AFTER reading post #18, it is clear that Socialists have overtaken the (D) party (…someone please tell my dear, but dumb sister and her husband!).

    To read the history (i.e. NOT “about” what happened from someone’s perspective, but rather the original documents) should suffice to convince most (with living brain cells…but my sister means well…).

    Thanks, Lockstein13. You’re correct, I was not going for the pithy or snidely filthy in #195 above.

    In his 1000+ DK clown site posts, Mr. Appendage’s rhetoric is quite similar to what Bill Ayers has said and written. Noodley could in fact be Bernadine snuggle buddy.

    * Note: ‘Mr.’ above is subtle mocking on the NY Slimes for their calling both Atta and KSM ‘Mr. Mohhamed.’

    This is pathetic. This is all they can find to smear Palin? Wow, they are in real trouble. Barack’s percentage points are not in double digits which they should be after his convention. They are nervous and scared right now. Should have nominated Hillary!! I CAN’T WAIT FOR THE DEBATES!
