Family Values
Sarah Palin's 17 y/o daughter Bristol is pregnant. Pass it on.
There is no truth to the rumor, however, that Palin's four month-old child with Down Syndrome is Bristol's daughter.
The McCain campaign is saying that McCain already knew about the blessed event before he made his running mate choice eight days ago. If that's true, then it seems to suggest that McCain really is as ethically blind as he proved during the Keating 5 scandal. But somehow, I doubt that McCain would've been in possession of information that intimate. According to John Cole at Balloon Juice, Camp McCain hasn't even begun vetting her, yet.
CNN reports that Palin's child with child will keep the baby and marry the father, as if making such a decision while still in high school bespeaks Christian family values. Naturally, the Palins are insisting on everybody respecting their privacy (Read: Don't write or speak about it).
You know, like the GOP would've respected Chelsea Clinton's privacy if she'd gotten knocked up in her junior year of high school.

being card carrying members of the NRA, they have the required armaments for the teenaged wedding.
it would appear that shotguns are as neccessary to palin family weddings as rings.
Did you ever see a Cajun when he really got mad
When he really got trouble like a daughter gone bad
It gets real hot down in Louisiana
The stranger better move it or he's gonna get killed
He's gonna have to get it or a shotgun will

I relish the day when it comes out that Palin's daughter had signed one of those abstinence pledge cards!
It's interesting that McCain would pick now to say this.
Now there's all this high-road "children are off limits". And I agree, but what short memories we have. Ten years ago McCain made a filthy disgusting "joke" about Chelsea Clinton being so ugly because Janet Reno was her father or some such shit. Chelsea was a lot younger than Palin's daughter. But I guess only certain people's children are off limits.
It's a good thing this girl's parents can foot the bills, because other girls who get "caught", "make a mistake" (oh, puke) and don't have affluent parents become "welfare queens". Such hypocrisy.
So McCain's campaign starts the conversation by bringing up this whole thing, but now they say we are bad for talking about it?
Typical double-standard hypocrisy from the Republican Party, of which Palin is queen!
I'm a little late catching up to your blog, JP, but you keep hammering 'em outta the park and I can't help chiming in.
Fuck Sarah Palin . . . no, wait. Already been done. Screw . . . nope. Same thing, different euphemism.
Here: I absolutely refuse to "respect the privacy" of someone who doesn't respect the privacy of the rest of America.
See, the underpinnings of Griswold v. Connecticut and Roe v. Wade lie in the Constitutional Right to Privacy.
People, and I use the term as loosely, in the Bristol Palin sense, like Granny Palin don't even believe (hateful damned word, that: "believe") the Right to Privacy even exists. So to hell with her and her stupid plea for us to all ignore what a shitty mother she's been, how she didn't teach her kids even the most basic information about contraception and the very real impact of pregnancy on teen mothers.
Nope. No sympathy here at all. Her Palinolithic views on human sexuality and human rights preclude any duty I might have to show her any respect whatsoever.
