ST. PAUL -- The 17-year-old daughter of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is pregnant, Palin said on Monday in an announcement intended to knock down rumors by liberal bloggers that Palin faked her own pregnancy to cover up for her child.

Why so jerky?
Um... Haven’t we known this since day one?
This just gives the McCain people a chance to point out that Obama would kill the child because he doesn’t want his daughter to be “penalized with a baby.”
I'm sure they are some of the most perfect, do no wrong people around.
BUT
Screw them. Must wouldn't vote for a Republican no matter what.
Absolutely not. Running for VP with Kerry at the top of the ticket did that.
I’m over it....next.
That's just it. They didn't.
You are not much of a Reagan Man today.
Her daughter’s pregnancy underscores Palin’s belief in the sanctity of life. Her daughter is pro-life, so is Sarah Palin. Adn what exactly is the Democrats’ point?
We’re going to have a First Grandchild coming to the White House. Whoopee!
And a First Baby too, with Little Mister Trig.
What a breath of fresh air!

So, combat one evil with a greater evil?
But reflection reminds me of a dear pastor here in town and his heartbreak when his teenage daughter got pregnant.
Also leaders of our local pro-life group...their teenage son & his girlfriend became early parents...
..The headmaster of our local Christian school (an exemplary family with lovely children) had to deal with the rebellion of their firstborn in too early sex with another kid in school.
Focus on the fact that she chose not to ABORT the child, due to her pro-life upbringing...
don’t assume that to be an answer. You don’t know what their religious belief are. As a Catholic we teach NFP which is far beyond the old rythm method they used to teach. So its not about teaching birth control
I”m shocked at the behavior of some on this thread on this subject. Maybe its us younger generations that have a much different viewpoint on this because we grew up in the 80s not the 50’s ...
For the same reason that (except for Gustav) this news has dominated the internet). It would have been a distraction off of Palin, the candidate and onto her daughter. There is a time for everything and that was not the time. The girl is not a criminal, she is carrying a baby.
Make his granchild pay the ultimate price for the mistake of his daughter.
Amen. Great post.
And to Regan Man : you can forgive, or you can vote for someone else, but spare us your hollow commentary.
By condemning this girl and saying that they will not vote for mcCain/Palin.
They are playing right into the demo-craps hands,shame on them for stupidly falling into the trap
Man who cares, she's still hot.
She was in on TV for the introduction shots showing her family that the nation has never met.
They aren’t going to be on campaign 24/7.
Are you trying to rewrite history? Reagan and Nancy had to marry because of Patti. You need to learn a little about your hero, don't ya?
Rut roe why? This is not Sarah’s issue. its a real life Mom’s issue with a teen daughter. if anything it makes her more real and down to earth having teen problems.
There is nothing here that Barack’s mother did not do.
And it should not.
