More Drama In Sarah Palin's Family

This puts Bristol Palin's pregnancy to shame! Sarah Palin comes with a whole bunch of baggage. Her hubby, Todd must like his vodka-tonics, because he went behind bars back in '86 for drinking and driving.

According to CBN News columnist David Brody, Todd was arrested on DUI charges back in the day. They're just a bunch of party animals, those Palins!

He wasn't even Mr. Palin at the time, either. Sarah and he were dating when he was arrested for the DUI in Dillingham, Alaska. Sounds like a party town!

Now, we totally get that it the arrest happened a long time ago, but this is the second thing we've heard about the Palins in one day, and Sarah has only been under the radar for a matter of days!

Does this affect the way you look at the family that could very well be living on 34th and Mass Ave in D.C. by next year?

I read on another blog, that Palin's bothers are in jail, that was from an Alaskan resident.....I'm sure that will be breaking soon! She is george Dubby'a in a dress for God's sake, right down to her bible thumpin' hypocrisies! This bitch vetoed out of the Alaska budget any funding for a house for pregnant teens, where they reside for eighteen months after they deliver. Where they get child care and training to go to work...that is gone now,thanks to her!! As she shows her own hypocrisy "Bristol". what a loser. If you read the news, Karl Rove is playing puppeteer again. He told Mccain "NO WAY" to Lieberman for V.P....Palin was the machine's choice...more cover-ups for the machine for four more years.....they're real scared of war crimes exposer...that is why they picked her!!!

Wow Sarah really must have big balls if she got Todd to adopt her name! I mean after all you state that he wasn't Mr. Palin at the time of his DWI, so that would indicate that he took on her name?

The President and Vice President positions equate to the highest social status an American can achieve. How did the most important positions in America evolve into pop culture portrayls of America's social problems? Do Americans really want pop culture defining its government? We have dumbed down our expectations. Our top leaders should represent the best we have to offer. An opinionated loud mouth that arouses your emotions is valued more than an educated well disciplined leader. No wonder the rest of the world has no respect for us.

oh please... the best type of person to have leading this country is the kind that admits to having issues. America needs a down to earth, honest and hardworking group of people to lead it into a new democracy.

All I can say I feel safe with McCAin setting in that chair. Obama does not have the experience to lead our country. Why did he not vote 160 times and just be present and don't try to say it's a lie from the rep. side Look it up yourself. It's there in balck and white.. I do not like the ideal that he plays the race card, if I was Jessie Jackson (Who is a true African American)I would be upset. Obama is a biracial man. not an african american.

Hey our present President was arrested for the same thing.

8:52AM 09/04/08 Jamalbi

People are not going to vote for her husband or her pregnant daughter so what does it matter what they did? She didn't go to jail and neither did she have a baby as a teen. I still would not vote for her for other reasons but sure I would not base my vote on her family. Please people, we all have someone in the family who got knocked up or who went to jail.

The more I hear about Sarah Palin, the more I like her. There's never any question about how a large family affects a man's performance in office. I also find it ironic that all the finger-pointing goes to the pregnant daughter, and we seem to overlook the fact that her teenaged son is on his way to Iraq. I think a lot of heartache experienced by the American people will be understood by Sarah Palin. As for the DUI 22 years ago, who cares! Examine the records of our congressional leaders if you want something a little closer to yesterday.

I dont care about what happened to her husband and the drunk charges. How many people now of days dont have a daughter that is expecting? She is so real and I can relate to everything that she is saying ! I love her and I think the way she thinks about her family is great!!!!

8:39PM 09/03/08 ashley

I cant believe that people are picking on her daughter for being 17 and having a baby, I had my son at 19 and he is the best thing in my life! I think she is real and a good family person. When i listen to her she is so honest and I can relate to her I have never voted but after listening to her tonight i have decided to vote and , vote for them!

4:46PM 09/03/08 alyssa

No, that's Obama that likes to snort blow, remember? So what, the guy had one too many 22 years ago. About the same time, Obama was doing coke and openly admits it and HE IS THE ONE RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT! Also, I think it shows how normal this family is, her teenage daughter does what every other teenager in america does...she has sex. Move on liberal biast media. why don't you write articles about Obama's drug history or his financial and social connections with a CONVICTED AMERICAN TERRORIST!

1:55PM 09/03/08 Leah

all you women who vote for mccain just because sarah palin is a woman are dummies!!! Mccain just proved how much he doesn't give a damn about this country by picking a woman with no experience and a load of family problems! These conservative fools need to give it a break!!! Why are we arguing over abortion when our economy is like crap!! America wake up!!!! Obama 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

7:17AM 09/03/08 Kim

Too bad the article forgot to mention that Obama has admitted to using cocaine and having a drinking problem in his college years. Who should be more important, the man who wants to lead our country or the husband of the vp? Also, I would like to thank the liberal media for helping to make a clear choice for the undecided voter of what party to vote for. The democrats are coming across as the party of hatred, anti women, anti family and anti small town America. As a mother from small town America I will be voting for the party who has promoted women and family values!

When you are running for President of the United States, we as citzens have every right to know what the President and his hand picked running mate stands for. McCain has earn the nick name Maverick and picked a VP, who has her own nick name. The Barracuda, given to her while she was in high school on her basketball team. Barracuda is a long predatory marine fish. I looked up the word predatory and it means, one that prey on others. Now here it is years later and it doesn't look like the Barracuda has changed one bit! John's pick is a card carring NRA member, who with friends fly and kill wolfs for the fun of it. At lease with Dick, it was a accident, when he shoot one of his friends. She is pro-life with a newborn who has down syndrome. This beautiful child require a lot of tender loving care,yet his Mother don't see anything wrong with dragging him out in the middle of the night and all over the country trying to add another title on her belt to go with being a Mayor and Governor. These two titles seem to be on top of her list, more then the other children she has. Now it has been reported that her 17 year old daughter is with child. No one should have a problem with that fact, but all the pictures of her on the net drinking, should be. The warm and fuzzy picture that her and John have painted is slowly comming unglued. It's bad enogh have a man running for President, who has a wife that is a cheater just like him and a former drug user as well as thief,but to pick a VP, who, the more she open her mouth to tote her achievements, the more it is being proven that she is a liar. "When you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything!"

Wow - since when did hollyscoop turn into political news? Last time I checked it was celebrity gossip and fashion. Stick to that. I come on here to get away from all of this political nonsense. I can't stand this!

8:29AM 09/02/08 Katie

Whats the big deal? Her hubby got a DUI BEFORE they were married, over 20 years ago! WHO CARES? I wuold be more worried if he had more since then! He learned his lesson, we all make mistakes! As for her daughter being pregnant, leave her alone! She has enough going on right now with being pregnant and trying to worry about what is best for her and her baby, that what everyone else thinks doesn't matter.

7:36AM 09/02/08 Patti

At least Sarah has a record of accomplishment in public office. Obama, not so much.

9:50PM 09/01/08 ss21

i dont care as long as they can get the job right look at bush hes a drunken mess

9:07PM 09/01/08 gerard Vandenberg

It's no big deal at all. They're used to it in the SPEARS-FAMILY!! Another "ördinary" american family?

8:43PM 09/01/08 opinionated

its actually very funny that palin, a conservative republican has a daughter that is having a child at age 17 out of wedlock. this woman has no experience and seems to have enough on her plate with all her kids. Mccain made a huge mistake but hopefully this mistake will benefit obama. Unfortunately some americans are just really dumb to understand that mccain is as corrupt as bush

8:34PM 09/01/08 PAT

human give me a break. there hasn't been a human in the white house for 8 years. Why are the republicans so forgiving of Sarah's family problems when they point their righteous fingers at all the other pregnant teens. Now they will see the results of teen pregnancy. The price the family pays and the price the young mother pays, then to make matters worse Sarah says that her daughter is getting married at 17. sounds like making on mistake isn't enough. I think Barack Obama said it best ENOUGH.......17 is extremely young having a baby takes maturity but not as much as marriage. Give the kid a break and some good advise and let her have some time to mature and get her education before compounding the problem....Sarah doesn't seem to make the best choices for her kids and I doubt that she has the ability to make the right ones for this country.....

7:45PM 09/01/08 becky

Are you kidding me??? If all they can dig up is a dui 22 years ago when the guy was in his early 20's, I'm thinking we got a pretty good thing going on with Sarah Palin. All I can say is "so human". I love the idea of McCain and Palin running our country.

7:30PM 09/01/08 Charles

This is way out of control! Dick Chaney only got two DUI's George Bush only got one DUI, and they say that when Lora Bush killed her boyfriend in a car accident that she was stone cold sober. The Palin family full of wife beating (Palin brother-in-law), drunk driving (Palin husband), pregnant teen (Palin daughter), Obama voting (palin mother in-law), white trash beauty Queen (Palin herself), represents a true slice of America and will appeal to the conservative base. When I saw her on MTV saying, I should vote for Ron Paul I knew that she was the one for me. The racist pro-war Christians would want this mama serving some nice moose stew on White House table. As a corruption fighter she will reopen the case on the Silverado Savings and loan scandal as well as go after the Keating Five.

5:41PM 09/01/08 Mike Farrell

If having a daughter becoming pregnant out of wedlock or having a spouse with a DWI prior to marriage disqualified a person for public office, the best and brightest among us will shun public service.

5:34PM 09/01/08 vidzblog

its nice to have politicians that i can relate to. Hopfully tomorrow we here about how Mrs Palin likes to snort blow off the asses of hot blondes
