yes, no, yes :icon_wink
I have spoken personally with OBGYNs about this, and yes, it is irresponsible to fly in that condition. It's not some left wing conspiracy. General practice for pregnant women to need explicit consent from their OBGYN to travel after 7 months of pregnancy. Don't just brush it off and threaten to delete stuff because you support her. Thanks mmx for actually posting those articles.
Lighten up, the flow chart is a joke...you know, a joke...laughing...joke...
Not really getting it, are you? Her medical choices and the circumstances for those choices are between her......and her doctor.
You've talked to OBGYN's? Congrats, my neighbor just broke her water. Why don't you come on over and assist?
Wow. I'm impressed. You've actually ... *spoken* to OBGYN's !!??!!
I guess that makes you the expert, yes?? How in the fuck do YOU know who I "support" ... ??? Did you speak to another OBGYN about that one, too ... ??? My eyes glaze over .... some of you guys become promiscuously ignorant by virtue of your promiscuous arrogance.
FYI ... McCain wasn't "my guy" ... but I'm gonna dance w/ the one that 'brung me as I don't vote for socialists.
And FYI #2 ... I don't make "threats".
Cheers.

He bowls overhand.
The articles posted make no mention of whether or not Palin discussed the flight plan with her doctor beforehand (I would assume that she did). However, Palin is running for an executive office where she might have to make important decisions in the absence of the President, so anything that lends insight into her judgement and capability to make sound decisions is fair game.
It's a news article, how would they know if they talked? And can you fairly second guess her decision without access to
1) An M.D.
2) Her medical files
Since one (and likely both) are off-limits to all but 2 people, then it's really an non-issue.
See you guys had to go and get A4s all fired up. Heads have been rollin' ever since. 
The whole pregnancy thing is dumb...none of us are qualified enough to speak of it (except maybe feddoc), and even if we were - it's kinda irrelevant. I'm glad Obama stepped up and said to leave the family mess out of it. After all, it's not like she said she was proud of her country for the first time in her adult life.

Water, schmater ... after my wife broke her H2O ... I made her wait until the "Guns of Navaronne" was over. For the record, she was in no great hurry to get to the Pensacola baby factory in any case ...

Why would you watch Larry King (who interviews people, I dunno, 100% of the time) to watch coverage of a speech or two? Why not watch PBS or C-SPAN? And if you don't think the news that the 17 year old unwed daughter of the current female Veep candidate is news you're crazy.
Tough day for Gov Palin...Lawyering up for Troopergate, pregnant daughter, and it turns out she was for the "Bridge to Nowhere" before she was against it, despite burnishing her reformist credentials in her announcement remarks: "I told Congress, 'Thanks, but no thanks,' on that bridge to nowhere. If our state wanted a bridge,' I said, 'we'd build it ourselves.'"Flash said:Not sure if this came up yet (didn't read all 15 pages):

Sexist statement? Apparently it's sexist to assume that a daughter is going to require the assistance and expertise of her mother when it comes to pregnancy, childbirth, and issues specific to a first-time mother.
Sit down, son.

Sarah looks much more at ease with that M4 than Diane Feinstein. (Note finger on trigger)
You became a father the same day "The Guns of Navarone" was on TV for the first time? You're dating yourself here, sir. :icon_tong
In the article, it says that she didn't "lawyer up," the state did. Just like the president doesn't attend every half-assed legal preceding involving the executive, a governor doesn't either.
Palin has pissed off most of her state's political establishment, which in my book is a good thing. It also means that she has plenty of hometown enemies.
The liberal establishment is throwing everything but the kitchen sink at her in order to throw doubt on McCain's choice because they are scared of what could be a game-changer for them. Witness the Alan Colmes column disparaging her pre-natal care and the wacko blogoshere saying that she's actually Trig's grandmother. The stakes at the VP debate are going to be huge. If she aces it, it's a huge score. If she tanks, then Obama will sail into the White House.
Running for president/VP isn't a job requiring a resume, other than demonstrated leadership. She has actually done something in her years as governor and on the conservation board in AK, in contrast certain other candidates, who have neither authored significant legistlation nor done anything bipartisan.
