You are so right. This woman's life is like a story by Dorthy Parker.
Peggy is part of the Maureen Dowd/Sally Quinn elitist crowd of Botoxed harridans who guzzle Cosmopolitans who all claim to be the inspiration of Carrie Bradshaw, a fictional skank from Sex and the City. Democrat or Republican, they are all the same. No core principles there.
I didn't see this link to the actual youtube comment posted, but if it was, here it is again.
From another thread by swarthyguy:
Commentators who are saying: "What is McCain thinking? Palin's 17-year old daughter is pregnant, he must have known that, so his vetting is criminally negligent."
Gentlemen, gentlemen. Take a deep breath. If you have any familiarity with US evangelicals, said to constitute 1 in 4 US voters, you will see that Palin's daughter's being preggers is worth several million votes! People seem to think that evangelicals are some kind of super-up-tight moralists who will say "Oh My Granny's Green Galoshes, the Palin's kid is preggers and I will not vote McCain-Palin". If people bothered to actually talk to evangelicals instead of labeling them as IQ retards, they would find that the Palin family's firm support of their daughter and their determination they will help her through this difficult time and if neccessary help her bring up the child in the event the father shirks his responsibilities is something that will put the great majority of evangelicals over the moon. Yes, of course they don't approve of unwed moms. But gentlemen, this is America in the year of our Lord 2008. Everyone but everyone no matter what their political opinions has babies without getting married. The real sin, the absolutely unforgivable sin from an evangelical's view is if the Palin girl had had an abortion. Mr. McCain would have not just dead in the water the minute people found that out, he would be sinking without time to send an SOS.
Add to this that Ms. Palin - or should we say Mrs. Palin - chose to have her fifth child knowing he had Down's, and thus commit her family to a lifetime of caring for the child, when she could have quietly had an abortion, is something the evangelicals - and liberals who oppose abortion, look very fondly at the Governor. "Liberals who oppose abortion" - got you on that, didn't we? You thought all liberals support unrestricted abortion? No they don't! These people may oppose the banning of abortion, but they know what a horrible choice it is for the parents, and it's likely they will respect someone who could have had an abortion but chose not to.
Now think again: the lady has impeccable, impeccable right wing credentials. She is a bona fide supporter of the 2nd Amendment, and people, please don't make the mistake of underestimating the damage the NRA can do to your candidate if s/he is against gun rights. She opposes abortion, and on this she leads by example: she has five kids. She thinks of herself first as a mom and a wife, then of herself as Madam Governor or whatever. And, people, here is the icing on the cake: in an election where everyone speaks of standing up for the common man, she is blue collar! And the icing on the icing: she is a woman!
