By definition, most of Obama's crowd aren't interested in fact; only the fun of smearing a 16 yo girl.

There usually are not people on the forum trying to drag the reputation of a 16 year old through the mud.

Oh, I know. It's awful! There's not even an attempt to be even-handed.

What is this the 1950s? And you really think that the discussion here or anywhere else, especially given that topic, was going to affect that family as it is untrue and so readily proven untrue. Give me a break and lose the false sense of moral superiority.

P.S. I'm an independent.

Not that anyone would consider the "daily kos" any type of significant purveyor of something even remotely believable but they did get this little snippet right:

we look stupid pushing this rumor.
The big tree outside my living room window could have told these dolts that when they were the first to publish this sack of nonsense a few days ago. Anyone with half a clue would realize why the Obama crazed MSM wouldn't touch this garbage with a ten foot pole but ain't it funny how some....... sucked it down hook, line and sinker

It's all over the Internet, not just here. How does your average 16-year-old feel when people are gossiping about her in school? Amplify that by 1,000 since the Internet, political blogs, and celebrity sites are all insisting she gave birth to a Down Syndrome child and had her mother cover for her.

I don't care WHAT decade it is -- being viciously lied about HURTS.

Jeez, then keep posting to this one so that it stays at the top of the menu. It's not rocket science.

I love all the hurt feelings and attempts to shame. If people spent more time interrogating claims that are put out into the political world and less time dismissing them because of dogmatic political positions, this country would be in better shape.

Well, folks, if there is another picture of her not looking like she is pregnant out there taken shortly before, or after, this one the difference should be apparent, so if it turns out this was a pregnant "photo op" it will be revealed.
