It just occurred to me that if Bristol Palin is due to give birth next month, then she was

about 6 months pregnant when she participated in that drunken brawl in September. Doesn't pretty much everyone know better than to drink, especially not to excess, when pregnant?

1. That was more than a year ago, I think?

Maybe September of last year? I don't know for sure and google won't work for me today. I think it was last Fall sometime though.

2. That was like a year ago if not longer

[murielm99]

7. The gestation period for an elephant is about 22 months.

Now, I recognize that the elephant is the symbol of the GOP, but I don't think that Republicans also affect the physical characteristics of said pachyderm!

10. A Palin would only go through a pregnancy that long if there were a reality show in it. :)

[MADem]

11. Ha ha ha! ZING--you nailed it!!! nt

[Bucky]

17. Elephants are slow, intimidating, nosy, and openly shit on public facilities

but that's all probably just a coincidence

[pinboy3niner]

18. So it's no accident...

...that the best-known one was called 'Dumbo'?

[MADem]

19. +1,000! nt

13. Ah--I am gatting old. Time seems to be compressed. The brawl reports feel like yesterday! nt

14. It's Palin Traumatic Stress Disorder. There's no cure, but you could try a 6-step group.

12. A DUzy worthy thread!

I miss the DUzies. And the Top Ten.

What happened to these iconic DU narratives? And why does DU not do these unifying narratives anymore?

All we have is the Pic of the Day from EarlG. It is great. But it seems like the DUzies were a community effort, as was the Top Ten.

I see little community here now. I see mostly division. Need I state that this does not bode well for us in 2016 if that continues. Shame on anybody who contributes to such things.

I will support and work for whichever Democratic presidential nominee.

PERIOD!

15. I'm rather inclined to let the poor girl live a quiet life without my attention

She doesn't seem to have become the ideal conservative spokesperson for family, marriage, or abstinence-for-pregnancy-prevention, so I needn't pay her much attention

16. In other news, Bristol Bay is still being protected from oil exploration.

So at least that's one thing in Alaska that's not being drilled repeatedly...






Yeah, I know...slut shaming, and I feel bad.

Kinda...
