Shotgun Wedding No More

People.com reports that Bristol Palin, daughter of former GOP vice presidential nominee and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, gave birth over the weekend.
Bristol Palin, the 18-year-old daughter of former Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, gave birth on Saturday to a healthy 7 lb., 7 oz., baby boy in Palmer, Alaska.
“We think it’s wonderful,” said Colleen Jones, the sister of Bristol’s grandmother Sally Heath, who confirmed the news. “The baby is fine and Bristol is doing well. Everyone is excited.”
Bristol Palin’s pregnancy became an issue when it was revealed during the presidential campaign, shortly after Sen. John McCain named Sarah Palin as his running mate in August. Bristol and the baby’s father, Levi Johnston, plan to wed next year, according to People.com.
And the baby’s name?
In keeping with the apparent Palin family tradition of giving boys unusual names that begin with “Tr,” such as Bristol’s older brother Track and younger brother Trig, the newborn will be known as Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston.

I know this places me squarely in the realm of the Rosewell conspiracy fomenters, but this “news” of Bristol's baby is so far based on nothing more than the word of Sarah Palin's aunt to People magazine. Neither Palin nor the hospital has confirmed anything. Just that — the sister of Bristol's grandmother, in an interview, probably by phone to People magazine, with no official confirmation of any kind. Born at 5:30 am either on Saturday or Sunday (reports differ), god knows where. And the papers are running with it. I still wonder about the truth of all this, and whether this is a decoy, which Sarah has cleverly distanced herself from.

Well the name is about the worst I've ever heard in my entire life and like my boss just reminded everyone that having a baby out of Wedlock is a SIN.
In all honesty I wish this wasn't even a news story…
