WHY THIS MATTERS POLITICALLY. There are two games Governor Palin is fighting: one is the battle to take control of her political narrative, the other is taking control of her PERSONAL narrative--and this includes everything surrounding her FAMILY.
Having Bristol go on The View is BRILLIANT, and does more for raising Governor Palin's political profile and stature than one may think!
With Bristol giving the whole scoop about the details surrounding her pregnancy, she takes the narrative of the "dirty details" and "dirty secrets" away from the mouths of Levi Johnston and rumor-makers in the press, who would try to use those things to detract from Gov. Palin.
I also like the comments Bristol made contrasting herself and her mother from the high-maintenance, first-class riding McCain women. Total, direct response to those pathetic 2008 rumors about Palin being materialistic and purposefully wanting hundred-thousand dollar wardrobes, about her family being "hillbillies who want the high life" etc...the McCain camp did nothing to defend the Palins against those nasty rumors. Totally deplorable considering how the Palins are the exact opposite of high-maintenance, entitled brats.
Bet Megaloditty is okay with “Snooki”.
I'm not saying Bristol is an angel, but there is no sense at all in having audience with theses whores of the Devil.
It was the height of arrogance and entitlement. Cindy McCain showed no class in the matter.
Since it was an event for Bristol Palin the rules make total sense.
If you had any character and was in Sarah's place as a bigger than life parent wanting to attend your daughter's book signing and wanting to keep the focus on her and her book, you would have implemented such a rule.
Your childish postings and trolling does not speak well for you, I can see why you would be so embarrassed by your books that you would struggle to keep them invisible from the public.
A bit snarky, aren’t you? Seems to me that the democrats and lamestreammedia alleged much more “dirty laundry” than that years ago, and Bristol was just setting the record straight. Besides, do you have anything against a single mother earning an honest living in spite of all the dishonest press she’s received?

“Based on her choice of husband, something must be wrong there.
But I don’t think ANY conservative should appear on that panel. A better representation of left-wing bias and vitriol would be hard to find.”
Lessee, she has no husband, and I can see an opportunity to get the conservative message out to some who would NEVER hear it otherwise!

“Any logical reason for your rudeness? I was stating my opinion on what is appropriate behavior for a potential future president of the US. Going on TV shows like this to talk about this kind of topic is low class. Notice I didn’t call you any names, nor did I call Bristol or Sarah any names. You are acting like a Democrat- getting all emotionally worked up instead of having an adult conversation- just like the libs on welfare TV.”
I know some “establishment repubs”, like Karl Rove, who think the same way. We Tea Party folks didn’t like those attitudes either.

“Of course, I didn’t have the all-time greatest, almost God-like conservative/woman/politician/thinker/debater/orator/FP expert/genius/strategist/mother/wife/governor/mayor/....or Sean Hannity or the VIEW chicks, etc, hawking them for me.”
Could that be because you’re ugly? Just asking.... heh heh
Get over it already!
JC
“But I, (and probably you) was raised with a certain standard and that standard would not allow for me to profit from my own bad behaviour.”
Just an aside, are you a union member? They profit a whole bunch from very bad behavior, eh? Just asking...
JC
“You don’t even try to mask your rudeness. You have not yet displayed an ability to communicate without that particular trait. Not sure I understand why you thought it necessary to have such a nasty tone. It really is a shame.”
I’ve decided not to mask my rudeness either because you need to hear it. Get over your holier than-thou-attitude already; it is unbecoming of one who claims to be a “conservative mom”!
JC
I forgot, but did wtc911 ever say what the titles of his allegedly successful books were? I reckon anyone could make that claim absent a means of it being verified, eh?
JC
“Regardless of how you paint it, her book and tv promotion is no more than do-as-I-say, not-as-I-did. It’s ultimately promoting illegitimacy, plus can she just take a break from the limelight.”
If you really think that (and are not another retread troll), then something in your brain ain’t hooked up right!
JC
He said that one of them was a, ahem, "graphic novel" e.g. comic book.
If I might hazard a guess, I'd say it was somewhere in the genre of 
Cheers!
Ya lost me right there...
Oh yeah, you’re outa here, troll...
And that’s the kind of (non)thinking that loses elections. How long are you going to cling to Sarah Palin? Why not put energy and support into those that are running? That goes for all of you that can’t stand anything said against her. She is not a Godly woman, but somehow her falsehood is overlooked.
Yep, you’re a retread troll, Palin is a very dedicated Christian patriot. Only those who aren’t fail to recognize that!
JC
I was referring to that creep, Mrs. McCain.
Wrong on so many levels, but time is limited. The camera likes the Palins; not their fault.
