ROTFL!

I find so-called "values voters" to be completely inscrutable.
First, their "values" seem to revolve entirely around their opposition to: abortion rights, promiscuity, gay marriage, sex-education and church-state separation. Values including compassion, tolerance, generosity and humanity do not apply.
But then, when these voters are confronted with politically conservative candidates who seem to defy the Christian Right's rigid prescription for moral behavior, they shrug. No biggie.
When I look at the ticket of McCain-Palin, I see a guy who was a playboy, who left his first wife after she stood by him, raising his children, until his release as a POW. I see a VP pick who gave birth a mere eight months after eloping, whose husband has had trouble with the concept of a designated driver, and whose pregnant 17-year-old daughter is unmarried.
But what really burns my begonias is not this explicit hypocrisy. It is that the Christian Right is positively jubilant over the fact that Sarah Palin's daughter intends to keep the baby and get married.......

What is so funny...besides the obvious... is that so many of the Feminazi's and related liberals, are absolutely clueless about what being a Christian means to most of "us"
sorry date should read 9.08.08 [typo]
The Left still doesn’t get it.
The immorality of prosmicuity is the lack of personal responsibility and consequence, and the Left’s support of big government to foment it.
Huh?! Those are the values that define us!
This author is seriously misinformed.
It's really very simple, isn't it?
“I see a guy who was a playboy, who left his first wife after she stood by him,”
Wonder what the author see when the look at BJ Cliton-a serial philanderer who walks all over his wife with slutty interns.
Keep it up, Robyn; add another stone to the sinking BHO ship!
Wow...you forgot the barf alert...lol! Projectile time!
ROTFL!
The Courant is a NYT wannabe. I canceled my subscription back in 2000 because it wasn’t even worth it to line the crate of a dog.
Reminds me that I need to go and dig out their box stuck in my front lawn.
Very bizarre and disgusting, but in the end, good for McCain/Palin 2008. Shows these people for the loons they are.
Sucks to be Blumner I guess......
I see more hypocrisy in the fact that the feminists are the ones questioning Governor Palin’s ability to be VP and a mother and wife.
The point is Christians forgive quickly. It would not have worked out as well if the young man wasn’t her fiance’.
robyn “blunder” alert
what about “barack’s story”
unmarried, stanley ann, 17 years-old when pregnant
married (not really legal) at 18
gives barack to her own parents to raise cause she’s too busy
“This author is seriously misinformed.”
hey, she’s got her story, and she’s stickin’ to it!
it’s true that ignorance is bliss.
These people's minds are diseased.
Looks like Robyn went to the Paul Krugman school of economics.
yep.. they have a mental disease.
A 22 yr. old kid ticketed for drunk driving who had trouble with the concept of 'designated driver' 22 yrs. ago because the concept didn't exist at the time! What a dork! I believe the word that would apply to the left at this point is DESPERATE.
McCain was a playboy? When? He left his first wife, but many Vietnam vets had troubled marriages when they got home. Did anyone ever check to see who wanted the divorce in the first place?
The left has lots of room to talk with the likes of Bill Clinton, John Edwards, Franklin Roosevelt, and the Kennedys as their icons.
