The 17-year-old unwed daughter of John McCain's new running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, is five-months pregnant, Palin and her husband, Todd Palin, said Monday in a written statement. McCain's campaign told FOX News that the presumptive Republican presidential candidate knew about Bristol Palin's pregnancy before he chose Palin as his running mate last Friday, and that Bristol is planning to marry the father of her child. "We have been blessed with five wonderful children who we love with all our heart and mean everything to us," the Palins said in the statement. "Our beautiful daughter Bristol came to us with news that as parents we knew would make her grow up faster than we had ever planned. We're proud of Bristol's decision to have her baby and even prouder to become grandparents. As Bristol faces the responsibilities of adulthood, she knows she has our unconditional love and support." The Palins asked the media to respect their family's privacy. "Bristol and the young man she will marry are going to realize very quickly the difficulties of raising a child, which is why they will have the love and support of our entire family. We ask the media to respect our daughter and Levi's privacy as has always been the tradition of children of candidates." A McCain campaign spokesman told FOXNews.com that Bristol's pregnancy was considered a "private, family matter" that had "absolutely nothing to do" with her mother's candidacy.

Therefore, Bristal is carrying the Messiah! I always knew McCain would choose Jesus as his running mate. This is going to be a 90% to 10% victory for McCain. Everyone knows that abstinence only education is effective. This is the only way this can play out! I don't believe it...the neo-cons were right! Guest 2. 06-09-2008 12:09 re For 20 years the right had insisted that there was one cause for unmarried motherhood: poor parenting. Here's Fox News supremo Bill O'Reilly in 2007: "On the pinhead front, 16-year-old Jamie Lynn Spears is pregnant … here the blame falls primarily on the parents of the girl, who obviously have little control over her."
