However, I would not subject my children to this. This is slime. This is not heroic military service. NO FRIGGEN Comparison. If you were in the US Military you know you get training on how to deal with the dangers. There is no training for this.

My only problem with your line of thinking is where does it stop? Most people on our side who are God-fearing and moral beings will not run for office because of attacks such as the ones being spewed at Governor Palin. God Bless Her that she has the STRENGTH to go into the snakepit and slay a few snakes. I believe that her children will learn a great deal by the way that their mother conducts herself through events such as these and I believe that children are stronger than most parents give them credit for.

IMO, we need MORE Sarah Palins to stand up to the Leftist Media Establishment not less.

And the problem here is NOT the fact that Governor Palin has children that act like children and make mistakes. The problem is that all of these "Time-Honored Traditions", i.e. not coming out publicly on the nomination night of the other guy, not getting the CHILDREN involved, not slamming the President while overseas, etc, are always HONORED by our side but the Leftists have zero qualms about violating these traditions. The Clintons asked the DBM to leave Chelsea alone and they did. They did not give President Bush the same respect. They are now doing their worst to Governor Palin and her chidren, but something tells me that they will come out of this just fine and stronger for it.

This whole episode is really turning me off completely to politics. And I am not the only one. I called friends, co -workers and colleagues from around the Country today and everybody is as disgusted as I am. I really have a lot of trouble with Sarah dragging the Palin family through this.I realize it is her choice but to me it is a turn off and so does everybody I know universally. None of these are LIBS. The negative feelings of McCain also come out. NONE OF these people like Obama one bit and a lot are very professional woman. But I live in a profession that is geared towards “taking the other side of the trade” - I am EXTREMELY used to people pushing back on “my call” as we say in the biz and it is astounding the universal concurrence I see.

I know the superduper anti-abortion people like Palin because it is “in your face” to the pro-choice crowd and if abortion is your main issue I get it sort of. I am not at all with the others around here that see teen pregnancy as a blessed event.

I am also a bit twinged over Rush doing a moral equivalence. It is disgusting but a fact of life that Edwards and Obama and BJ Clinton get a pass on bad behavior but no reason we should get one or even ask.

I cannot stand to watch this tonight.

I think this war needs to be fought without the children. Sarah has them in it.
