They don't grasp that they are insulting our girl. You don't mess with our girl.
I’ve always heard how hypocritical pro-lifers are, because they’ll march against women’s right to have abortions, but the second they or their daughter has their own “unplanned” pregnancy, they’re scheduling an abortion.
Of course, that’s ridiculous... a pro-lifer doesn’t suddenly condone murder when it’s their own baby.
The Palins walk the walk, not just talk the talk. How keeping the baby somehow makes them hypocrites is beyond me.
While murdering unborn babies might be the lefts solution to down syndrome and teen pregnancy, the Palins believe in life.

Amen from the rooftops!!!
Here’s what’s going on in the secular world. They look at evangelicals like they are all “church lady” types. Old-fashioned organized church goers who wag their finger in your face all the time. I was guilty of that as well, until I actually started going to a non-denominational church and was surprised by what I heard and what I saw. I loved the unwavering principles, but I also love the grace, mercy and message of love...and that’s something they just can’t..or don’t want to..understand.
This evangelical is rallying behind Sarah.
There’s room for many more, too.
You can’t make your children’s choices for them. Kids will make mistakes. It is good that Bristol could go to her parents and didn’t feel the need to sneak off and get an abortion.
I believe you are right. I have been so upset about CNN’s constant coverage of this non-story. But after calming down and as someone else said “chilled”, I believe this will totally backfire.
> This has to be the mother of all blow up in faces..
Shakespeare had an equivalent expression: “hoist by one’s own petard,” a petard being a small land mine, with the same root word “pet” from which the French word for “fart” originates.
These people are Doing Tremendous Harm. They need to shut up.
The voters Palin is supposed to attract are moderate women who are neither GOP nor Democrat. They Are Not Going To Be Attracted To A Zealot.
Conservatives need to stop tossing ammunition to the left by claiming that Sarah Palin’s focal issue is abortion because That Path Loses Moderates Who Don’t Care About Abortion.
The topics to focus on here are oil. It is something she knows a great deal about. It is something that concerns moderates.
The target constituency does not want a zealot. Don’t help the left paint her as one.
Speaking of which, have you seen Bristol in the coverage today?
What poise and maturity.
I don’t know many 17 year olds who could have their most intimate secrets exposed in the MSM without immediately going into hiding.
She looked very stoic and brave.
The Dhimmis are going to regret this big time (and say it’s all racism that Obama lost in a landslide).
Next the looney libs will be saying McCain selected Gov. Palin knowing her daughter’s pregnancy would unite the evangelicals.
My sentiments exactly. I don’t blame the mother, but she doesn’t gain in my eyes, either. It’s a wash. But it is illustrative of their values that there is no question that they keep the baby and the girl gets married. That’s what happens in moral America when a young one screws up and gets pregnant.
Another thing to consider is that all this "preganancy hoopla" is going to drive a huge TV audience to hear Sarah Palin speak on Wednesday night. The Oprah Nation crowd laps this tabloid stuff up and I think that 90% of American women will be tuning in (as well as a lot of GOP men) which could result in even higher TV ratings than what Obama got last Thursday.
If this turns out to be the case, look out! America is going to be knocked out by this woman. Look for the GOP ticket to win millions of votes this week from independents and Democrats who if not for all the "tabloid fuss" wouldn't even have bothered tuned in.
A Piece of good news.
I knew the dirt machines would be running full tilt but what we are seeing is amazing.
They are shoveling anything within reach.
I think they sense their only chance is to stop Sarah before she gains any more momentum.
Something or someone has to cut across party lines and stop this blind hate and madness or there won’t be much left of America to save.
“This is the pro-life choice. The fact that people will criticize her for this shows the astounding extent to which the secular critics of the pro-life movement just don’t get it,” Land said in a statement.”
He’s right!
If we want, we can start writing in 'commentaries' after news stories and get our messages out.
All of us endeavor to raise our children, as closely as we can, according to our value system. But, final analysis:
We can’t be with out children 24/7 and kids do stupid things.
So much for the nasty rumor that Sarah faked a pregnancy to cover for Bristol. Trig is 4 months old and Bristol is 5 months pregnant.
