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.
Yep, that would be why.... ;-)
I was, too.
No arguing you two! We can see about a fancy-suit budget later. Let’s just make sure that Darks’s boots aren’t uff-dah anymore.
Don’t even *think* about correcting my spelling. The proper form of a possessive is the noun followed *in all cases* by apostrophe s. Nouns that end in “s” are no exception.
</pedantic old bat>
Is it hard to be such a b***ch or does it come naturally.
Never thought I’d think the ‘girls’ on the view were nicer than a poster on Free Republic.
Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my Viking Kitty/ZOT ping list!. . . don't be shy.
The gesture of Cindy McCain was as phony as a 3 dollar bill and had a tinge of grandiosity to it.
I, the great Cindy, will deign to be Godmother to your trailer trash little b-turd.
I don’t blame Bristol for being taken aback by such a presumptuous gesture.
BTW, she looked and acted great on the show. She’s acquired a lot of poise.
I'm bored. Now that the thread is all clean, wanna play chess or something?
Go pound sand.
I smell smoke...
‘Bout time!
Agreed, 100%.
Airing the laundry certainly debunks the "dirty" crap the MSM has been airing these past couple years........
I’m “on tour.” ;-)
The MSM unfairly brought her into the limelight, in direct contradiction to every democrat child that preceded her. I have absolutely no problem with how she conducts her personal life now that the MSM created her. She's their Frankenstein monster and if she can profit from it then more power to her.
There is nothing she can say or do that will distract the supporters of Sarah Palin. In fact, the attacks on her that are sure to come, as evidenced on this very conservative website , will most likely garner even more support for Sarah Palin should she ever decide to run for President.........
Tell me where my description is wrong...I’ll wait.
Whut?
Spamming the threads with ads for the FReepathon.
I saw some of yours today. Thank you very much. :-)
We should have a contest sometime....whoever spams the most in a certain period of time wins. That would be fun! heh heh ;-)
Alright...I just did about 20 spam ads. :-) Heh heh
