What contributes to your implication that, if Bristol and/or the sperm donor (I can't remember his name at the moment and don't feel like googling while posing this incredibly off-the-point yet insightful, pithy and [what do the kids call it?] genius-laden query) had any say in the matter, that there would be any thought/execution of a wedding day? Now for the really good one: to what extent (well, I had to ya' know) was there any thought, by Bristol or what's his name, of a wedding prior to, during and/or after the fornicating and before the realization that not abstaining and not practicing contraception (yes, I know, contraceptive practices are not 100% effective and, granted, that is a perfectly rational reason for not engaging in such practices) may have consequences?

"might have consequences." Thought you'd want to know.

What I've read in the mainstream media is that the two were engaged prior to the conception of the little fetus, and that everyone in Wasilla knew that Bristol and Levi were engaged. Given how detail-oriented the media have been about finding out any possible dirt on Sarah or her teenaged daughter, I think we would have heard that the engagement did NOT pre-date the conception, if that were indeed the case.

Reputable sources also have it that Governor Palin encouraged the young couple to get married before the news got out, or before the girl started showing. Needless to say, she was not successful in this.

Thanks for the grammar correction.

Yes, those terrible jounalists! Why, they are just awful people. Whoever told them that it was their job to investigate and report?

Pity they only dig up dirt on RepubliKKKans, though. Surely, the dirt-digging can be bi-partisan? Or perhaps, and here's a really novel idea, left to trash tabloids such as, oh, I dunno, The National Enquirer?

As it is, it's a sad fact that NE is closer to proper investigative journalism, and the MSM to trashy tabloids.

Plus, Attila, I'm surprised you could parse the 1st commenter's sentence structure. My syntax checker gave up about 1/3 way through.

He's okay; he's a drummer, not a writer.
