Re: The situation in Iran right now.
the iranian government broke the first rule of cheating: if you're going to do it, don't make it obvious. every kid knows that if you have the answer key you can't get all the answers correct. When opinion polls show that you're struggling before the election, you can't win 2-1.

The probability of Palin's daughter having a baby with Down's syndrome = less than 1/1000
The probablility of Palin having a baby with Down's syndrome = roughly 1/33
Some might say that trying to agrue those odds requires a conspiracy theory.
