Palin Campaign Stonewalls On Medical Records

CNN:

With less than 24 hours to go before the presidential election, Sarah Palin still has not released her medical records and there is no indication the campaign is planning to do so.

Two weeks ago, Palin's campaign told several reporters traveling with the campaign that a summary of the governor's medical history would be made public before election day.

Focusing on Trig and her latest pregnancy isn't where to look. If we ever see her complete medical records I suspect we will find that she has had at least one abortion.

[JoeBlough]

I think Trig is the result of an Alien conception.

A note from her family doctor since only 1997 is NOT her medical records or history. She is still hiding something.
Thankfully, it will not matter after tonight.
Maybe, in Alaska, they will not care about such obfuscations. The national stage will not forego this, and there will still be questions.
Tom Eagleton was a fine senator from Missouri for many years, but he was effectively disqualified from holding national office ( and the possibility of handling the nuclear codes ) due to his medical/psychological history.

Isn't this "report" from the same doctor that said that it was okay after Palin's water broke in Texas to fly 7 hours to Alaska ? Something still does not add up.

Godzilla from Wasilla. Watch out America!

Physically, most assuredly. Mentally, not so much.

HUH?

Palin has had four term pregnancies and one pre-term pregnancy in 2008, when her son, Trig, was born with Down's syndrome at 35 weeks.

Baby coming early and she was still fiddling around instead of getting to the nearest hospital. Makes absolutely no sense unless she had other hopes than what did happen.

If they had just released the "summary" way back with no problem, there most likely wouldn't be any questions. Even reporters now are suspicious as to why they waited. This delay doesn't do anything for the election results. Most people have voted by now or won't even see this until after they do vote. And a summary does not state all medical information. It is a "pick and choose" statement and is stated as being "very brief". Sure, Sarah is in good health, but it still doesn't rule out the suspicions of her last pregnancy and her actions through it. Even if Trig were proven through DNA to be her son, it will always cast a shadow over her "judgment" in making decisions. I found the information on that palindeception.com site very interesting, considering it isn't left wing--conspiracy theory stuff. From a medical point of view, it makes a lot of sense.

Reminds me of high school days when I wanted to do something that required a note from home.

I had a note, it was from home but it still wasn't what was asked for or quite truthful.

[milo h minderbinder]

So she has released her records, and no surprises there.

Can we let the conspiracy theories about the paternity of Trig drop?

It's REALLY tacky.

[AnalyzeIT]

Medical records released - says she's in good physical health. However, made no mention of her mental health.......... I still do not believe that 5th child is her natural born son.

They had these records and chose to release them on the morning of the election, in hopes that it would convince voters to vote McCain-Palin ticket.

Rovian tactic, I would say.....................

Sorry to late I voted 2 weeks ago.

... she has been all but anointed as the defacto head of the GOP and presumtive 2012 candidate.

Oh yeah? Who anointed her? Pastor Muthee? Mary Glazier? Joel's Army? Dobson? Hugh Hewitt? Cheney?

[bungalow]

Sarah annointed herself. It's the curse of the beauty contestant to believe that looks matter more than anything else. Particularly competence. That's for the thinkin' gals.

[boing007]

Palin described her son Trig in religious terms, saying that her family had been “chosen,” and that his life would serve a “greater good.” The interview was broadcast Wednesday on Dobson’s radio show, which reaches an estimated 1.5 million Americans daily.

Yeah. Like milking the poor child's disability for all its worth.

[boing007]

The doctor who wrote the report was the one she went to see in Wasilla when she got off the plane. Coverup. Remember, there is no official birth certificate of Trig from the medical center.

[RonCanada]

After my two month obsession, I thought it would take me a long time to get over Sarah. Well, I'm pleased to announce that my cure is already complete. Amen.

[stayinsouth1981]

What is with the letter giving more information on her last child than her own health? Why would anyone need to know about her son's prenatal care and prognosis? BECAUSE it makes NO SENSE to tell a woman having a child ID'd as having health issues to stand around, give a speech, fly to Anchorage then drive her happy self to Podunk Wasilla to give birth to her child. WHAT ON EARTH?
