You don't have to be perfect to avoid getting knocked up. After all, I didn't get knocked up and you are all briskly telling me how awful I am. Well, even awful old me managed to never shame my family. But this girl? And did she retire modestly from public eye afterward? Heck no, this was her chance to do the talk shows and the celebrity circuit. Now she's duck-facing for the camera, aw, isn't that sweet. Yeah. Mom's career is toast, but who cares! It's her time now!
Um, you really haven’t paid attention have you. If I recall the timeline correctly; Sarah was happily being a busy effective governor of Alaska, when out of the blue, the McLame camp picks her for the VP slot. And again, if I read the timeline correctly, Bristol was probably already pregnant by that time.
She didn’t go out there to sabotage her mothers VP chances. Hells Bells, the McLame camp and the GOPe did that just fine themselves.
I imagine it would be hard enough for any young woman to have to break such news under normally ordinary circumstances, but to have to do so in the middle of all that, with a world wide microscope peering into every aspect of your life?
Holy shit.
I would love to see you deal with all that at age 19. I really would.
You being perfect and all.
I take it they aren't members of this forum.
Bristol Palin didn't get pregnant after her mother was picked as the Republican vice presidential candidate, it was well before that. You don't even have your time-line down. Wow. Tell me, do you think, like Andrew Sullivan, that Trig is really Bristol's son?
