John McCain's running mate Sarah Palin said Monday that her 17-year-old unmarried daughter is five months pregnant, an announcement aimed at rebutting Internet rumors that Palin's youngest son, born in April, was actually her daughter's.

A statement released by the campaign said that Bristol Palin will keep her baby and marry the child's father. Bristol Palin is five months pregnant, and the baby is due in late December.

"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," Sarah and Todd Palin said in the brief statement.

This story has been knocking around the blogs for months. No more ignoring it, Corporate Media! FOX Noise...That means you! Steve Doocy! Get on the ball.

Is the daughter really the mother of Sarah Palin's youngest child? Whaaa...? Alaska is starting to sound like Alabama...

And how does Bill Clinton fit into all this...?

LMAO at the Author!! I agree lets get this investigation going asap because if it was Obama's daughter people would want answers!! This seems a little bogus to me...What does her daughter being pregnant now have to do with the "rumor" about her being pregnant over 9 months ago?!! America is doomed if they are going to fall for this one!!

Attacking a pregnant 17 year old girl is disgusting. You should be ashamed.

You can rest assured, if it was Obama's daughter who got knocked-up Steve 'Doofus' Doocy & the other FOX Noise media-prostitutes would be doing cartwheels…
