Well, looks like the National Enquirer has its hooks in the Palin family.  They now are reporting that Track, Sarah Palin's eldest child was addicted to Oxycontin. Maybe some party pics will now surface of Track, just like these of his preggo sister, Bristol.

The ENQUIRER has learned exclusively that Sarah's oldest son, Track, was addicted to the power drug OxyContin for nearly the past two years, snorting it, eating it, smoking it and even injecting it. And as Track, 19, heads to Iraq as part of the U.S. armed forces, Sarah and her husband Todd were powerless to stop his wild antics, detailed in the new issue of The ENQUIRER, which goes on sale today.

 THE ENQUIRER also has exclusive details about Track's use of other drugs, including cocaine, and his involvement in a notorious local vandalism incident.

“I’ve partied with him (Track) for years,” a source disclosed.  “I’ve seen him snort cocaine, snort and smoke OxyContin, drink booze and smoke weed.”

 The source also divulged the girls would do anything for Track and he’d use his local celebrity to manipulate other guys “to get them to steal things he wanted.”
 
“He finally did what a lot of troubled kids here do,” the source divulged. “You join the military.”

And as Gov. Palin has billed the state of Alaska for various expenses related to her children, as reported by The Washington Post, The ENQUIRER's investigation reveals that she was so incensed by 17-year-old Bristol's pregnancy that she banished her daughter from the house.

Another family friend revealed pre-prego Bristol was as much of a hard partier as Track was.
 
“Bristol was a huge stoner and drinker.  I’ve seen her smoke pot and get drunk and make out with so many guys. All the guys would brag that the just made out with Bristol.”

 When Sarah found out the teen was pregnant by high schooler Levi Johnston, she was actually banished from the house.  As part of the cover-up, Palin quickly transferred Bristol to another high school and made her move in with Sarah’s sister Heather 25 miles away!

 And the ENQUIRER also learned that Levi Johnston, the baby mamma’s future wedded dada, who was glad handed by John McCain at the GOP Convention, isn’t too happy about his impending shotgun nups either.

 “Levi got dragged out of the house to go to Minnesota,” Levi’s friend told The ENQUIRER.  “Levi realizes he’s stuck being with Bristol because her mom is running for Vice President.”
 
The friend also confided that both Bristol and Levi “broke up a few times and they definitely messed around with other people.”

Oh my, how salacious! 

If even one half of all of this is absolutely true, shouldn't Palin go home and straighten out her family now.  Why doesn't she take her mooseburgers and go back to Alaska...we don't need her helping to mess up our country like she messed up her family.  Yes I said it.  Because we all know that if this had been any Dem there would be a 24 hour gabfest about how they are a rotten parent, how they are unfit for government office, how they are a bad role model, blah blah blah. 

If these are the rules the republicans want to set for public office, then they should live by them as well. Palin should not get to hide behind the "she's an average American mom" theme.  She is not a role model.

Frankly, I do not want an average person in the White House.  I want a person of extraordinary skills and intelligence.  I want a leader.  I want someone who can be MORE than what they came from. I want someone who will represent the absolute BEST that America can produce...not some "average" corrupt, scandal-ridden, Alaskan moosemom.

America and the world deserves better. Better is within our reach. Obama/Biden 2008.  Yes we can!
