Yeah, they look real interested. I suppose when you're over-entitled and clueless, you don't really care what happens to a turkey. Why apologize for telling the truth. Friggin' coward. But, I guess the comm director needs a job.

Already a thread. The left would love to make a big deal out of this, after their years of persecuting the Palin children.

What planet you on? Going after the daughters was stupid, classless, and hurts the cause.

The little entitled class here is the GOP consultant class - the “daddy got me a job on the Hill” class - they’re almost all clueless. I’ve worked with these young staffer types. They’re arrogant, isolated, ignorant, but they have power and/or access to power. It’s scary.

Never apologize for telling the truth.

She had it right the first time - the kids were not dressed appropriate to the occasion, they showed no respect or appreciation for the event (taking after their mother, no doubt) ... what a mess!

Never apologize. It only makes you look weak, and validates what your opponent says about you.

Idiot Consultants. Don't they know the only children of politicians they are allowed to criticize are the Palins'?

Well, of any Republican for that matter.

DemocRAT children are off limits!

Am I right, the son of Joe Biden who was kicked out of the Navy for drug use? Up high!

Well, you’ve surely heard the old saying “Class will tell”. They’re just the product of their alleged upbringing.

Their dress is reflective of what girls wear today.

The problem is their posture. They don’t know how to stand in front of cameras or an audience. They don’t know how to hold themselves. It is because the entire admin lacks the graces necessary for such presentations.

“Never apologize son, it’s a sign of weakness...”

You’d think that at least their mother would teach
them to shave. I see they got her sense of fashion...

I agree with you. Let the pictures speak for themselves. Politicians’ kids should be off limits. We don’t gain if there are ‘pubs in DC who provide distractions such as this.

Social rule of thumb: You can never be overdressed for the formal social function.

They are not ordinary teenagers, whether they like that fact or not.
