ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Bristol Palin is a mother for the second time.

Palin, who launched an abstinence campaign after giving birth as an unwed teenage mother, posted on Instagram Thursday that she gave birth to a girl, Sailor Grace, on Wednesday.

It's the second child out of wedlock for the daughter of 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin. Family attorney John Tiemessen said he could confirm only that the Instagram account was Bristol Palin's.

Palin was an 18-year-old unwed mother when she launched the abstinence campaign soon after giving birth to son Tripp in December 2008.

She was engaged to Medal of Honor recipient Dakota Meyer, but the wedding was called off days before the ceremony earlier this year.

Palin has not publicly disclosed who is the father of her newborn daughter.

Words fail me when thinking about this entire asshole family.

1. So

I assume she made it to the vet in time.

2. doesn't that family name their kids according to where they were conceived and other stupid reasons?

so where, I wonder, does Sailor Grace come from?

Track, the first-born and oldest son, was given that name because of the family's longstanding interest in sports.

Sarah's parents were coaches, Todd was a high school athlete and Sarah is an avid runner. Their first child was born during the track season.

Bristol, the oldest daughter, is named after Bristol Bay, an area where Todd grew up. Bristol Bay is also the site of the family's commercial fishing interests.

The Palins have not identified the significance of their other two daughters' names, but the meaning is likely rooted in aspects of the region's culture and way of life.

Willow is the name of a small community in Alaska relatively close to Wasilla.

Piper may have come from the name of the popular bush plane the Piper Cub, which is commonly used in Alaska.

4. Sailor Grace?

I didn't read beyond she's still breeding. Is that really her name? I guess that's better than Slobbery Drunk.

[SoapBox]

7. ...

[2pooped2pop]

8. dang, I don't know where I got that from.

I didn't open that site. I must have seen it elsewhere.

[tazkcmo]

10. lol

I'm so sorry. It seems you've suffered multiple Palin exposures and it's effecting your memory. Please seek medical attention!

29. Sailor Jerry...

..."Sailor Jerry Ltd. produces a 92 proof spiced Navy rum featuring a quintessential Sailor Jerry hula girl on the label. As the bottle is emptied, additional pin-up girls designed by Sailor Jerry are visible on the inner side of the label. The rum is distilled in the U.S. Virgin Islands. It takes its influence from Caribbean rum, which sailors would spice with flavors from the Far East and Asia to make it more enjoyable to drink. In 2010, the formula being sold in the United Kingdom was changed to include a less sweet taste.[7]" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sailor_Jerry

[Major Nikon]

5. Do as I say not as I do

Typical wingnuttery.

[SoapBox]

6. If she had simply said...

No Glove, No Love...that would be that.

And now I best shut up.

[tazkcmo]

11. I doubt love was an issue. n/t

[Kennah]

9. Fifth time will be the charm n/t

[Botany]

12. So how is that abstinence-only stuff working Bristol?

[world wide wally]

44. It's a miracle!

[Geronimoe]

13. Oh rats!

With all Sarah's planning, Bristol missed having a Christmas baby by two days. Maybe next year?

[sarge43]

14. So if she continues to add to her brood, will they be named

Soldier Prudence, Airman Faith, Marine Chastity, Coastguardman Hope?

[onehandle]

16. A bouncing baby grifter! nt

[Enrique]

17. "she has not disclosed who the father is"

surely it must be her husband right?

[Skittles]

21. with the "Family Values" crowd, you never know

[svpadgham]

23. She's not married.

The alleged father broke off the engagement. Oddly he commented "This is the greatest gift in the world." I'm assuming he means not being married to a Palin.

[TNNurse]

50. I am glad mother and child are fine

I would not wish an issue on anyone. Having said that, I have to ask, if she has not announced the father, is it because she is not sure who it is?? OK, that was very bad and I and I do not care. I will say no more evil. The child is an innocent.

[Plucketeer]

18. Sailor Grace

Oopsie oops would be better.

[Gore1FL]

36. Sailor Grace?

Is the kid named after her drunken memories of the conception? At least it wasn't Marine Early, or Airman Splatter.

[BumRushDaShow]

19. This

Idiocracy incarnate.

[Stuart G]

53. IF you have not seen "Idiocracy" you must..it relates esp. to Palin...oh..

just to be clear...Palin is the idiot, not the smart ones...

[BumRushDaShow]

55. That movie is classic

and I can't believe it's been almost 10 years since it released!

[Skittles]

20. I'm sure the third one will be on the way soon

[PersonNumber503602]

22. That's cool.

I usually ignore these types of threads topics, because I don't really care about the Palins, nor do I usually care much about any public person's personal life. Despite that, I clicked on it and I read the comments. Now I feel somewhat obliged to leave a non-snarky remark about a kid who had no control over his family. I hope he does well, and I also hope Bristol is able to be a good mother to all fifty of her children.

[svpadgham]

24. You almost did it.

nt

[RussBLib]

25. I guess it must be time for another abstinence campaign

at least until the 3rd child is due

[NobodyHere]

26. I hope the baby is healthy.

[Grins]

45. Not a problem. Canada's not that far away.

If it was good enough for mama grizzly, it's good enough for her cubs.

"My first five years of life we spent in Skagway, Alaska, right there by Whitehorse (Canada). Believe it or not - this was in the '60s - we used to hustle on over the border for health care that we would receive in Whitehorse. ... and I think, isn't that kind of ironic now. Zooming over the border, getting health care from Canada." - McCain's everlasting shame.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

52. Not irony, Sarah

Hypocrisy. Your family is steeped deeply in it.

[The Second Stone]

28. Another Palin family Virgin Birth!!!

Congrats to the Snowbilly Grifter family. Now Jesus has two half-siblings! Or is it three. Only God the Father knows for sure!

[Helen Borg]

33. Geez, another immaculate conception?

[Divernan]

34. Paternity suits & DNA testing to follow

She may not have publicly said YET who the sperm donor was, but he will be named in a child support
action very shortly.

[hobbit709]

37. More proof that preaching abstinence is not the same as practicing abstinence.

One works, the other doesn't.

[tabasco]

38. Welcome to the world, kid, and good luck.

You're going to need it in that fucked-up family. Good news is you're never going to want for groceries, thanks to the family's hateful but successful grifting.

[trusty elf]

39. ....

[NastyRiffraff]

40. I feel sorry for the poor baby

..born into this disfunctional family. Best of luck to her...she'll need it.

[dinkytron]

41. i'm blocking this thread thank you

[trillion]

42. Why?

[dinkytron]

46. I dunno. Just seeng the name Palin first thing in the morn

just bums me out. Thats all.

[Fuddnik]

48. It's 3 in the afternoon!

Lotta egg nog last night?

Yeah, me too.

[dinkytron]

49. Yup. Plus... holiday time makes me hornery!

[keithbvadu2]

43. Sarah had time to play politics but

never had time to teach morals to her baby mama daughter Bristol.

[Turbineguy]

51. Sailor?

Aren't sailors known for having children out of wedlock? Maybe the child was named after the father. I once worked with a guy (his optimistic parents named him Adonis) who claimed to have fathered 27 children and never wasted a nickel supporting them.

The Palins are special.

[kwassa]

54. The Sailor Who From Fell From Grace With the Sea?

[GOLGO 13]

56. Do I have this right? So this is the 2nd child born out of wedlock to

a 2nd man? Meaning that she has (so far) had 2 children by two different men without being married to either one of them? So her fiancée - a medal of honor recipient- called off the wedding because she was pregnant with a child that wasn't his?

Sounds like the most rocking redneck soap opera I've ever heard.

[Sunlei]

57. probably a good idea for Mr. Meyer to insist on a DNA test before he gets to attached to the baby.
