An update proof the pregnant story is a lie (and why it's our business)

[mckeown1128]

1st its our business because she has a right to tell the truth. This is a big deal if she lied to the public. (I personally don't give a flip if it is her daughters baby or if she was taking risks with the baby) But a public official does have to be honest.

2nd the proof....


"Airlines have different policies regarding pregnant women. For some, the cut off date is 34 weeks, others require a doctor's note and most international flights allow women to travel up to their 35th week of pregnancy"

http://www.cbc.ca/news/story/2001/12/13/travelpregnant_011213.html

so airlines need a doctores note for near ready to pop pregnancies.... so how exactly did she get on the plane with her water broken?

1. I believe it was supposed to be a private plane

Not that I buy the story mind you, but commercial airline policies would not apply.

2. Just FYI, according Palin herself she flew on alaska Airlines

I still think this story is very thin; a few photographs and connect-the-dots isn't the same thing as evidence. Uncommited people on other forums I frequent view this as a matter for the lunatic fringe...so bear in mind that jumping to conclusions weakens Democratic voters' credibility.

3. It was Alaska Airlines, regular flight, and Alaska Airlines has no

restrictions on pregnant women flying.

My daughter flew NJ to AZ at 35 weeks, with approval of her doctor.


The links to the story are all over; I'm not going to hunt them up and add them to this thread. But please do some reading before posting "proof." (Besides, I believe the correct term is "evidence," not "proof.")

5. Alaska Airlines has no restrictions. I looked it up.

I couldn't believe it myself when I saw it.

But there are lots of odd things with that story...
