The hypocrisy hunters are on high alert, calling out the media for claiming that politicians' kids are off-limits, even as we gleefully pillory the Palin children..
They're right, to a point. A Washington Examiner piece on Monday points out that CNN anchor Carol Costello recently had to issue an apology for her treatment of audio involving Sarah Palin's daughter Bristol, who was recounting an alleged assault to police in Alaska.
"I'm just going to come right out and say it," Costello said, smirking. "This is quite possibly the best minute and a half of audio we've ever come across well, come across in a long time, anyway."
Costello's remarks were ugly and insensitive, to be sure. So is most of the mud slung at the former Alaskan governor's children.
You can argue that Bristol, Palin's oldest daughter, transcended her role as politician's daughter when she signed on for "Dancing With The Stars" in 2010 and a Lifetime series, "Bristol Palin: Life's a Tripp," in 2012. But that would imply that we left Bristol (and the other Palin children) alone prior to 2010, and we all know that's baloney....

Heidi can use a hair, face, and soul makeover.
Carol not fired yet? I guess going after children is endorsed by CNN
Heinous Heidi looks like she fell out of an Ugly Tree and Missed all the Branches but landed on her Face.
HARD
Most liberal women are so pretty on the inside and out /sarc
Combing that mop and not showing half where she's shaved her hair off sure makes a world of difference.
I must be missing something. A writer complains about a double liberal standard, and the response is to complain about how she looks?
Heidi, you were decisively overruled in 2008. After everybody in the Palin family down to Trig got torched, “wives (now spouses) and kids are off limits” is dead, dead, dead. None of you guys want to say it, now that it’s your guy’s little princesses getting targeted. I just did.
One wonders what Laz’s verdict would be.
You wonder about that???
Wow... her “Inner Unibrow” is SCREAMING to be set free and run amok!!!
Now, that’s a description....if I’ve EVER heard one. Youch!
A man with a nose that big would be assumed by the ladies to be packing extra large
Size queens pay attention to that stuff
