TURN OF THE SCREW: Andrew Sullivan Calls Barney Frank Out for Complicity in Financial Crisis, Sleeping with Fannie Mae Executive, Playing "Homophobe Card" to Avoid Scrutiny!

Just kidding. He wants to know who Trig's mother is.

Births At Mat-Su Medical Center In April 2008

Here they are listed on the hospital's website. Trig Palin, who was born there, Sarah Palin tells us, on April 18 at 6.30 am, is nowhere to be found. If you can find any public record of Trig Palin's birth anywhere, please let me know. I will gladly publish it as soon as I find it. So far, none exists that I have been able to track down.

The Dish contacted Mat-Su and asked what the criteria are for including the names of the babies born in the hospital.

They said that inclusion on the list is by parental choice and they ask all parents. When asked if it was therefore a fair inference to say that they asked the Palins and the Palins chose not to have their child included on the list, the hospital told us that the Palins' privacy barred them from answering those questions. I asked the McCain-Palin campaign to comment but they refuse to answer my emails.

It's shocking that the Palins somehow got the idea that they should probably not make their records public. I mean, what are the odds of a creepy gay vagina-envy child stalker intruding into their lives?

One in... one, as it turns out.

There's no requirement parents disclose their births, by the way. It's a private choice, not a hospital decision. Other parents make the same decision.

Also note that Sullivan previously asserted the Palins made such sick money (over $200,000 in combined salaries! WOW!) that they could "intimidate a hospital," so I'm not quite sure why they couldn't easily force the hospital to say Sarah Palin is Trig's mother.

Note his offer of proof shifts every day as the facts shift, but his conclusion remains e'er fixed like the North Star. One day they bully the hospital into faking records; the next day they bully them into withholding records.

And finally, note that disgusting picture. Oh, the picture's sweet, but Sullivan uses it to suggest that Levi and Bristol are Trig's pa and ma, despite the fact which is obvious to everyone but Sullivan that Bristol is seven or eight months pregnant and therefore was also pregnant in April, when Trig was born.

I understand that Sullivan is not merely gay but SUPRAGAY, and thus is as familiar with the female reproductive system as he is about... well, any other topic he writes so passionately about, anyway, but a two minute Google search should satisfy him of the fact that Bristol Palin is a human female and not, in fact, a Tribble.

Compare and Contrast: Bristol Palin speaks at least human language and does not emit a trilling purr when her fur is stroked; Bristol Palin is an omnivore, consuming vegetables and meat alike, and does not subsist entirely on "superwheat" space-crop quadrotriticaline

GayPatriotWest wondered why Andrew Sullivan, the Go-To Guy of Gay, the guy who cannot help but pontificate on anything having to do with homosexuality, has completely missed the whole Barney "Fannie Buddy" Frank thing.

By the way, I didn't want to post this. Thanks for the tips; but it's no longer possible to embarrass this brain-damaged gay gossip columnist. Nor, apparently, the gay gossip site and antisemitic conspiracy newsletter and Child Stalking for Dummies publisher he works for.

I had to post it because I got up early (for me) today to get the McCain news, and now I find there's no other stupid news to post. I only finally posted it when I thought of the joke headline and made myself chuckle.

And, in case you care, Sullivan posts the Trig thing again today (the above quoted post is yesterday's). Briefly, though. Just a brief regurgitation. And I do mean regurgitation. So there's no point clicking over there.

Andrew Sullivan Actually Demanded to Know Why Economics Blogger Megan McCardle Was Writing About the Bailout Rather than Trig Palin: Her answer--

Andrew wants to know why I'm more freaked out by the bailout package than by Sarah Palin. [Palin-hating bona fides established.] Andrew may not have heard, but there have been a few interesting developments in the financial markets over the last few weeks. As an economics blogger, I was regretfully forced to forgo full time devotion to the vice presidential race and turn to more trivial matters.

Thanks to Oschisms for that.

This once again proves one of my main takes on Sullivan -- he has a mediocre and trivial mind, inexpert in any area that would normally qualify one as a serious commentator on national affairs, and so is forced to reduce "politics" to this Melrose Place type crap because it's the only thing he's capable of writing about.

And, on top of that, now he's demanding that experts in relevant fields stop writing about their areas of expertise in order to join him on his Changeling Baby Snipe Hunt.
