What's really at stake isn't whether the story of Spear's pregnancy is true or not, but the way the news is delivered and then the way that pregnancy and birth are treated by the media and public.

It's not clear to me that the American public wants to debate Sarah Palin's child-rearing skills and personal decisions as a means to determine her competency as a Vice President. But we haven't been given much else.

In this video, Keven claims he is the father of Bristol Palin's child. Keven, a self-professed aspiring "urban rapper", pronounces "Palin" wrong, so for that reason alone, this is suspect. But authenticity aside, this is brilliant.
