Anonymous asked: This is sad. What a dumb bitch, and c**t you are! 1) Show is YOUR child's birth certificates, and 2) you are calling women liars?? So the fact that my mother and family friend looked exactly the way Sarah did at all those times didn't have their child? bull shit.

sarahpalish replied to your photo: Sarah Palin on March 26, 2008.  Allegedly 7 months… Looks pregnant to me. The boobs, the head. No? Nope.  Not 7 months pregnant, not even close.  At 7 months your belly is WAY past your boobs.  Ask any person who has been pregnant.

The Conversation about women happens everywhere, publicly and privately....
