Bwaha..

Oh man..

Now, I'll be the first to admit I'm not one to immediately trust DailyKos with information about prominent republicans, but I must say, this is convincing..

You (may or may not..) know that Sarah Palin (John McCain's VP running mate) has been widely reported of being pregnant, then having a baby with Downs Syndrome, thus fossilizing her pro-life platform.

Except, the problem that DailyKos has made a very very good case for, is that she looks like she was never pregnant during, well, all of her pregnancy, and as governor of Alaska, she gets photographed a lot. Her 16 year old daughter, on the other hand, was out of school for months with "Mono" and who looks pregnant in a bunch of official photos. Uh huuuh.

Remind me again who shouldn't be trusted with "the button"?

the bottom of her belly looks like it's about in line with her bum crack, and if you follow your bum crack around to the front you will find your pubic bone. The shadow you mention, in my opinion, sways more towards pregnant belly since chubby bellies don't have such a sharp indent, while pregnant bellies to. Not to mention there is significant variation in where women carry their babies.

Really we just need to find more photos of her.

yeah, that one photo individually isn't convincing

so we were on the wrong track. It's not which one looks more pregnant, because both do!

I find this hilarious.
