Referring to the latest Palin nonsense, of course.

Wine coolers are about 5 percent alcohol. I'd think you'd puke from a bloated stomach and all the sugar before you'd get enough alcohol to reach the blackout stage. But I was never a wine coolers person, having started out with hard liquor. Any of you with the more toe-in-the-water approach to alcohol able to give credence to the Bristol saga?

Your question assumes that she's telling the truth, which I doubt. Better to label someone a rapist than to take any sort of responsibility. But she's a role model!

I have never blacked out on wine coolers. Too many can make you sick before you black out. Or, maybe it was her first time drinking alcohol and having sex. Maybe it wasn't the wine coolers that made her black out while having sex...

Oh no doubt, Phyllis. :) I'd just think Bristol (or her ghostwriter, more accurately) would at least concoct a more plausible date-rape story than that. I mean, even if they were drinking Old Milwaukee it would sound more plausible.

She's still a good Christian girl so it has to be something lady like, like a wine cooler.

Do they still make Zima? That's what all the good Christian girls at my high school drank before losing their virginity.

I think now the "in" thing is the Mikes Lemonade and the hard iced tea. Or tequila.

I forgot about Zima! Used to drink those a lot. Never passed out though. She was "supposedly" a virgin. If she was, it wasn't the ahh ahh ahh ahh alcohol that made her pass out.

Being alone naked in a tent with your first boyfriend is usually stimulating enough to keep one alert. I liked the part where she says she didn't know what happened until she heard him bragging to his friends.

It's kind of brilliant in a "God, I hope everybody who reads this is stupider than me" sort of way.

Okay, so she's already gone on a nationwide tour talking about what a mistake her son was. NOW she's claiming he was conceived without her knowledge or consent? I hope she's saving for his therapy now.

I have a legitimate question. I know many very conservative Christians, and well as Orthodox Jews. I have met (or heard about) countless Christian teenage girls getting pregnant, yet never heard about a pregnant Orthodox Jewish teenager. Can someone explain this to me?

If you black out from wine coolers you most definitely CANNOT hang out with me.

I think that the wine-cooler camping date rape is just when she lost her virginity, at least from the way I understand it. I think the baby was conceived at another time.

Oh. My. Got. Are you kidding? And Mike's only is like 3% alcohol. There is no way you could pass out from that. I can drink a whole six pack. Not that I would because I'd be sick from the sweetness. I would think wine coolers are similar.

Maybe she's diabetic and uses wine coolers to balance out her blood sugar. Did you ever think of that?

GOD, you people have no compassion for this unfortunate young woman of virtue!

Yeah, I pretty much believe she was stone-cold sober when she decided not to use protection and get impregnated.
