Palin releases Medical Summary
Not exactly the medical file.

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2008/11/03/palin_releases_clean_medical_s.html

- snip -

The letter, dated Nov. 3 and signed by her family physician, Cathy Baldwin-Johnson, who is on staff at the Providence Alaska Medical Center, says that the Alaska governor is in "very good health" and has "no major medical problems."

Baldwin-Johnson has served as the governor's family physician since 1997 and Palin has sought medical attention from the clinic since 1991. "Her visits have been related to routine women's health care and pregnancy," Baldwin-Johnson writes.

The bulk of the letter describes how Palin learned in the second trimester of her most recent pregnancy that her youngest son had Down syndrome. The doctor writes that, after Trig's condition had been detected in utero, Palin underwent "follow-up perinatology evaluations to ensure there was no significant congenital heart disease or other condition of the baby that would preclude delivery at her home community hospital."

"In summary," the letter concludes, "Governor Palin is in excellent health and has no known health problems that would interfere with her ability to carry out the duties and obligations of Vice President of the United States of America."

1. Now there is no doubt she IS hiding something, something big.
Will we ever know?

2. I think "Bullshit" is a pretty safe call on this one.
I'm saying abortion scarring and a tubal ligation after the youngest daughter was born.

4. That heifer didn't give birth to that little boy and she knows it.

I have never believed that she did from day 1 and was scolded by some well meaning Du'ers but she's obviously hiding the fact that Trig is NOT her son but her Grandson. I was born at night BUT it wasn't last night in front of a speeding turnip truck!

7. I agree, and what do you wanna bet
that she will reward a few medical people, including the doc, with a state job, grant, money, or whatever.

It's hard to believe that a woman delivering her 5th baby - high risk, and prematurely would or could endanger her baby's life, her own welfare, to fly for hours, then travel again once arriving in Alaska. It makes zero sense.

5. I'm happy she's healthy enough

6. So now a "letter" constitutes a release of medical records?
Geezus. Sounds like the sort of thing that you'd have maybe a 50% chance of getting out of gym class with. If you're lucky. :shrug:

12. Just like that "secondary" Troopergate committee.

:sarcasm:


Damn her. She is hiding something. I also bet she is Trig's grandmother. And she's had several abortions.

That woman has lied every chance she's got. She's even tried to cover up the fact that she's violated an ethics law in her own state.

It's a house of cards and one day, the entire thing is going to crush her.

I hope it happens soon so she can slink away in shame.

13. I would like to see the original version...
"In summary," the letter concludes, "Governor Palin is in excellent health and has no known health problems that would interfere with her ability to carry out the duties and obligations of Vice President of the United States of America."

But they cut out the last sentence: "PRESIDENT of the United States of America, on the other hand...HELL NO."
