Sarah Palin has sparked outrage by posting pictures on Facebook of her son standing on her dog.

[CyberAnt]

My youngest son used our cat as a pillow. She would lay down in front of the TV, right where she knew he would be sitting to watch TV .. and it would only take a minute or two before he was laying on her - like a pillow .. and she loved it .. purring away.

Of course, he was still very little - about 2 yrs old.

[AmusedBystander]

Sarah has a deep love and respect for God, America and our Constitution.

but not so much for the family dog.

yet another fake controversy

[defconw]

My dog is black! What are you trying to say? ;)

[cuban leaf]

They are in a constant state of rage and anger.

Apparently, though to a lesser degree, so are some conservative animal lovers.

[illiac]

They would criticize her is he was standing on bare ground.....give it a break MSM/Tweet, etc.....

[bigbob]

Some of us like them just fine, so speak for yourself.

[RoosterRedux]

Look at the other photo.

[Bratch]

Fake, but accurate. :rolleyes

[Irenic]

I don’t think it is good because not all dogs would behave that way. Just like I don’t think children should be crawling or playing around dogs that are eating, even if the dog thinks it is OK. Some dogs won’t think it is OK.

[eyedigress]

Maybe just a picture of Obama eating it while the boy watched.

[GeronL]

Note that the same FReepers who hate anything Palin are okay with Mitt’s dog on the roof.

[napscoordinator]

No and it wasn't. Sarah doesn't think sometimes. Obviously Romney's don't either.

[DJ Frisat]

Take 2:

Sarah Palin could find a cure for cancer, stop ‘climate change’ and resurrect deceased liberal icons, and the left would still express outrage.

Eyes still rolling...

Apperiantly This is an Issue Ping to Sarah's List

Good G-d in Heaven

Yes in another Pic Trig is standing on the Dog Completely, but probably for no longer than it took to take the Picture.

Does it look in pain?

I am so Happy that Sarah Palin's Dog Takes precedence over Issues and everything else. >:(

When I was a Little Kid I used to ride my Parents Prized and Pure Bred Siberian Huskies like a Pony, they would let me, but when they got tired they would shake me off.

Didn't Hurt them.

I haven't rolled my eyes this much since my last demonic possession >:(

Todd should have fired a Hellfire Missile at it from a Drone and this wouldn't be an issue.

still some support on the counter, not the dog....still not a deal.

[Blue Collar Christian]

This is the same son that the same people were peeved at her because she didn’t abort him.

[Leaning Right]

A child should not be standing on an animal.

I gotta agree. This case really is no big deal, but Sarah often makes choices that have lots of downside and little upside.

And for those who believe that the child is merely petting the dog, maybe so. But I'm very pro-Sarah, and petting wasn't my initial reaction.

Most obviously the dog loves Trig and offers itself for the boy’s happiness.
