Andrew Sullivan goes on vacation and leaves an adult in charge of his blog: In Defense Of Sarah Palin (Patrick Appel)
The easiest way to disprove these conspiracy theories is to consider what would be required for them to be true. Palin’s doctor, along with a good number of Mat-Su Regional’s doctors, nurses, and administrators would need to be in on the cover-up. On multiple occasions Palin would have had to pad her belly to make herself look pregnant. She would have needed to get friends to lie about seeing her breast feed. She ...

While Sully is on vacation, one of his guest-bloggers refutes his patron's beloved Trig Palin conspiracy theories:
...Andrew writes:
There is no formal record of Trig's birth at Mat-Su Regional Medical Center, although there is a record of two other babies born on the same day.
This is highly misleading. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) (pdf) protects patient information. The "formal record" Andrew is referring to is a list of newborn babies on the Mat-Su website. This list is voluntary. ...

Too bad it takes his assistant Patrick Appel to point it out:
While signing off, Andrew mentioned the months long argument he and I have had with regard to Sarah Palin’s fifth child. I am the only other person who has read all the obstetrician interviews, the interview with a reporter at the scene, and all the primary sources. I strongly believe that there is nothing to this story.
Also, on Sullivan’s harping on the birth not being reported in the hospital records:
This is highly misleading. The ...

Words of wisdom about Trig Palin over at The Daily Dish, Andrew Sullivan’s site.
No, I’m not kidding. I’m quite serious.
He has a guest blogger.
That blogger states: “I strongly believe that there is nothing to this story.” He quotes Sully’s complaint that there is no record of Trig Palin’s birth as “highly misleading,” because the list is voluntary. “Trig not being on this list isn’t proof of anything.”
The easiest way to disprove these conspiracy theories is to ...

... this morning for not recanting his "obsessive, incessant campaign to imply that Gary Condit was a murderer." I had missed this back in the day, but apparently Kaus thought Condit murdered Chandra Levy, and now we know (or almost know) that he did not, and Sullivan thinks that Kaus ought to man up and say he was wrong: "C'mon guys. Behave like bloggers." Well, good advice to be sure. But given Mr. Sullivan's obsessive, incessant campaign to question Trig Palin's maternity, it is not obvious that he is the perfect blogger to lecture Mickey Kaus. Or is it that the best defense ...
