At my site (MLW), people went berserk over Sarah Palin pregnancy and her choices per that pregnancy. I lost my shit:
Judging this woman’s GYNECOLOGICAL and OBSTETRICAL DECISIONS under the aegis of judging her fitness as a VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE?
IF IT WERE THE REPUBLICANS SAYING THESE THINGS and SHE WERE A DEMOCRAT?
WE’D BE SCREAMING FUCKING BLOODY MURDER AND YOU ALL FUCKING WELL KNOW IT.
Stop for one fucking minute and take a breath and be intellectually honest with yourselves.
How DARE we be judging what this woman did or didn’t do with her fucking uterus?
Jesus motherfucking christ.
going-over…
but damn it, it’s a holiday, and the child I CHOSE not to abort wants to go to the beach.
I agree, but we really haven’t had much commentary of that sort here.
the next thing to police is the revelation that Bristol Palin is pregnant right now.
.
They have five children named: Track 18, Bristol, 17, Willow, 13, Piper, 7, and Trig (who was born on April 18th).
First dude works as oilman for BP on the North Slope 400 miles yonder, Track has enlisted in the Army and will serve in Iraq, Bristol is soon to be mom and be married. That leaves Willow to parent the young ones???
“Ms Palin said her husband is a great stay-at-home dad. I was a little concerned about how she plans to raise her five children while attendeing to the solemn affairs of state. Children need a mom who is there for them, right? She will definitely NOT be there for them. Be that as it may, the fact that a woman, a former marijuana smoker who once sold snowmobiles, can become Vice President of the United States says a whole lot about the Republican party.”

I guess it’s time for a nanny or grandma/granddad?
"But I will not let myself be reduced to silence."
Simply has nothing to do with whether or not the woman is qualified to be vice-President.
What, she should force the 17 year old to have an abortion?
OR to NOT marry?
Or… what, exactly?
WHAT, exactly, does this have to do with Presidential politics?
Simply has nothing to do with whether or not the woman is qualified to be vice-President.
She is a lying, hypocritical, human failure. I would suggest that might have SOMETHING to do with being qualified for Vice-president.
But then again, America IS a cakistocracy. Your point is taken.
