Palin buys diapers
My first thought was why in the world would anyone consider a mother, regardless of her political position, buying diapers to be news. I have no idea why I clicked the link, nor how I even saw to do so since my eyes were rolling at the ludicrous things that pass for news these days. But click the link I did and I learned the diapers she purchased were Parents Choice. I've tried Parents Choice since they are the cheapest diapers you can purchase anywhere & guess what, they leak. I'm just betting a mother of 4 knows that too. I don't know much about her personal finances, but I feel pretty sure she's not forced to purchase lousy diapers due to poverty.
Something stinks & it ain't Trig's diaper.

I realized how snippy I sounded after I posted this - I wasn't trying to be catty (it's just natural), but I really do think this was some kind of publicity stunt or something. I just don't believe she uses that brand of diaper. And let's face it, if there is a problem with the Republican party, it's getting the lower middle class to accept them. That income bracket tends toward Democrat. And I just want to tell her, you're not one of us just because you buy a cheap diaper.
But about the diapers - glad they work for you. You're the first person I've spoken to that liked them, male or female child. I ended up throwing almost a whole box away. She'd pee one time & the whole front of her clothes would be wet. But then again, turns out she can pee twice as fast as a normal baby - ha ha!

I do not like Parents Choice either...I think the cheapest and the best for their price are the Sam's Choice brand.
I very much doubt she uses Parents Choice, infact, the used diaper that was found on her desk in her office where she was preparing for the VP debate did not look like Parents choice to me.
