How is that a personal attack on you or anybody else in this forum? How is that confrontational to you? Why must that translate into personal attacks on me?
Read what I said and address it. I NEVER said that your first post was a personal attack on me or anybody on this forum.
Are you never harshly critical of any public figures or their adult children?
Public figures, yes.
Does that merit invective or ad hominem against you?
If a person's criticism about a public figure (or anybody) is wrong, then certainly that wrong opinion is worthy of criticism.
If that wrong opinion about a public figure is outrageous, careless or irresponsible, then yes that person is worthy of ad hominem criticism.
Have you ever called a public commentator, such has James Carville an idiot because of his point of view?
I would bet most reasonable people have.
> If that wrong opinion about a public figure is outrageous
That’s your opinion. I didn’t think it was outrageous at all. The photos speak for themselves.

In what way was my expressed opinion outrageous, careless, or irresponsible? You and I differ on the suggestiveness of those photos. I would not show them to my children, and I would not go back for a second glance. I think they’re pretty bad.

Well, yes, but I almost immediately correct myself. Such people are not idiots. They are either immature, living in their emotions, badly misinformed, brainwashed, or sinister, participating in our subjugation. I can’t honestly say for certain which of those, or which combination of those, James Carville, for example, is.
Bristol’s participation, in this dance exhibition has done damage to her mother’s standing as a moral leader. That’s a fact, like it or not. The overwhelming preponderance of Hollywood “stars” hate Sarah Palin, hate everything she stands for, and hate her supporters. We should all avoid doing anything that empowers these people in any way, however minor.
Even Bristol herself is having second thoughts about her participation in that tv show. For that, I can applaud her. It is a sign of emerging maturity.
But the creeps in hollywood will dog her with those photos. Count on it.
