I did a little bit of catch up reading over at http://www.mercedejohnston.com and it was an eye opener. For those of you who don’t know, Mercede Johnston is Levi Johnston’s sister. Levi Johnston is Bristol Palin’s former boyfriend and (probably) the father of her son Tripp. Bristol Palin, of course, is the daughter of Sarah Palin, failed 2008 vice presidential candidate, author (probably not really), speaker and star of a reality TV show. Bristol is also a star in her own right, because she was on “Dancing With the Stars.” Going by her dancing, she had to have been one of the stars.
Anyway, I hadn’t looked in on her blog for a couple of months so there was plenty of new stuff. I like Mercede Johnston. I doubt if she’s a progressive politically, I’d be surprised if she really has any deep seated political ideas at all. She strikes me as a pretty average teenage girl, with a small town view of the world. She may not be a genius but she’s not stupid, she chooses her words carefully and she can spell O.K. I’m always eager to read her opinion on all things Palin.
Anyway, a whole bunch of people were asking her about the various conspiracy theories around the birth of Sarah’s Downs Syndrome Baby, Trig. She answered honestly: she has no such suspicions but also no explanation for some of the discrepancies.
There are several different theories, some involving switched babies, bought babies, all sorts of stuff and some of them are pretty elaborate. This allows Palin supporters to point and say “They’re all crazy.” Sort of like the way that people who don’t want to give any credence to the idea that 9/11 might be an inside job point directly to those of us (who believe it was an inside job) who believe that it was carried out by the Zionist Global Government which is actually run by the Lizard People from the Pleiadian star system.
Still, she did not refute, with any facts, my own favorite theory, which was that Sarah was never pregnant at all but adopted Trig to cover up Bristol’s pregnancy and when the rumors started to get out of hand, forced Bristol into a second pregnancy to quash the rumors. Why do I believe that? Flying from Texas to Seattle to Anchorage and then driving up to Wasilla after your water breaks (O.K., after you start leaking amniotic fluid) is insane behavior. The fact that no gate agents or flight attendants even noticed she was pregnant makes the whole story very suspicious.
A simple DNA test, of course, would put that theory to rest.

Maybe she should produce a birth certificate and three witnesses to the birth.
