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

[tioga]

Rrrrrroooooooaaaaaarrrrriiinnngg with laughter. Good one.

[RoosterRedux]

And have another drink, eh?

[RoosterRedux]

Geez, you know nothing about dogs, do you.

Dogs will die for their owners...for the most trivial things.

LBJ was a Democrat.

However, I do remember this incident and it did raise the ire among some people.

Perhaps that is the real reason he would not run nor would he accept his party's nomination in '68.

Metaphor..shemtaphor.

The “obstacle that was turned into a useful thing” was a dog. Not an inanimate object.

I don’t think it is a good thing, cute or not. Perhaps, as has been suggested, Sarah told her son after the incident that you don’t do that kind of thing. I would like to hope so.

[dforest]

;^) Aw!

[RoosterRedux]

I am an idiot...you are an exception.

I've got it right.

[RoosterRedux]

LMAO!

Don't laugh your ass off, Dad. That probably all that's left of you.

I agree. With all my heart and more than 500 posts.

Also, you have been assigned by an ad hoc committee of concerned FReepers to contact her and make sure she (or Todd) actually has done this bit of educating Trig just as you say. When can you report back?

[RoosterRedux]

The dog has not been injured by this treatment, and no doubt when the boy is bigger, he won’t stand on the dog.

Did Sarah tell you this (tell her hello from us).

Otherwise...what a stupid comment.

[Fresh Wind]

However, I do remember this incident and it did raise the ire among some people.

As do I. And it was blown out of proportion, just like this one.

Irony: You’re doing it right.

It seems your concern over discussing another person’s child stems from the child being a member of a family of the political class. Or are you on record on FR as being against discussing another individual’s child for any reason, regardless of family background or prestige?

[berdie]

I actually enjoy sarcasm. It is one of my most worthy traits.

Ya know, I hadn’t actually thought about contacting Sarah. But you have given me the idea.

When, if, I hear back from her..I’ll be sure to let you know.

I’m sure any answer I hear will be gracious.

[potlatch]

Julie, I saw a picture of Sarah with “Jill” the pup in April of 2014 - as I best recall. That makes the dog less than a year old and Trig is larger than the dog.

When, if, I hear back from her..I’ll be sure to let you know.

Not to me. I'm not a member of the ad hoc FReeper committee.

Also, I did not discern at first that you were employing sarcasm. LOL!

I cannot tell sarcasm from just plain dumb unless told so.

Are you Catholic?

From your profile page I see you have some sort of obsession with drinkers. We are not drinkers of alcoholic beverages here at the ranch, so would appreciate you explain what it is you intended by your comment.
