From Time.com, “In Wasilla, Pregnancy Was No Secret” by Nathan Thornburgh The suddenly ubiquitous Thornburgh provides actual reporting in lieu of speculation regarding Bristol Palin’s pregnancy. Thornburgh better be careful – he could receive a lifetime ban from some fevered precincts in the blogosphere for doing that kind of thing.
So his name is Levi. That’s about the only thing that I didn’t know about Bristol Palin’s pregnancy. The rest of the details I picked up almost without trying, while talking about other things with townsfolk – some who know the governor and her family well, some who don’t. It was, more or less, an open secret. And everyone was saying the same thing: the governor’s 17-year-old daughter is pregnant, the father is her boyfriend, and it’s really nobody’s business beyond that. I happen to agree.
Hopefully this piece will help mollify the left’s touching concern over the thoroughness of Senator McCain’s vetting process.
