Recently, a left wing commentator named Keith Olbermann attacked me for being a spokesperson for abstinence education and for being an Ambassador for the Candies Foundation, which promotes teen pregnancy awareness and prevention education. He went so far as to call me "the worst person" he knows, apparently, for my efforts to educate teenagers about the real world risks of premarital sex.
Accusing me of hypocrisy is by now, an old canard. What Mr. Olbermann lacks in originality he makes up for with insincere incredulity. Mr. Olbermann fails to understand that in order to have credibility as a spokesperson, it sometimes takes a person who has made mistakes. Parents warn their children about the mistakes they made so they are not repeated. Former gang members travel to schools to educate teenagers about the risks of gang life. Recovered addicts lecture to others about the risks of alcohol and drug abuse. And yes, a teen mother talks about the benefits of preventing teen pregnancy.
I have never claimed to be perfect. If that makes me the "worst person in the world" to Mr. Olbermann, then I must apologize for not being absolutely faultless like he undoubtedly must be.
To Mr. Olbermann let me say this: you can attack me all you want. But you will not stop me from getting my message out about teen pregnancy prevention. And one day, if you ever have a daughter, you may change your mind about me.

Ignores critics like you...not Olberman. You aren’t obnoxious. :)
Hey, thanks!
So whats her message? She’s going to respond every time that imbecile Olbermann opens up his sewer hole? .. I’m just sick of reading all this high school hallway smack, its peurile.
Bristol has been through a lot for a young lady her age, and many teenage girls are interested in what she has to say.
I'm more proud than ever that we voted like Acorn to support Bristol on DWTS! Olbermann is undeniably the worst person in the world.
Bristol used her nightstick on olbermann! LOL
Really is awesome!! What's olbermann going to do now??
With all his perversions, Keith just might enjoy that.
Especially if handcuffs are involved.
“if you should ever have a daughter”
Heaven forbid that the Olberdork should ever have any offspring -— what, more Frankenstein creatures in the world?
What a disgraceful thing for cho to say!
It's a wonderful accomplishment!
You sound an awful lot like Joe McGinnis.
Her mistake here is revealing that she watches Keif.
No one forced you to click on this thread and read it.
Why waste reason on pussyboy Keith?
The sniveling punk is still writhing ‘neath his desk still crying about Bush and Cheney.
Yawn.
Like what? That abstinence is "just not realistic at all", per Bristol. Or maybe, how to get your best friend to tell your parents that you're pregnant. She even sees the inherent contradiction in her actions: "I go around and I talk about abstinence, then I'm out here in my underwear".
Fact is, if it was anyone else she be criticized by the Palin Amen Chorus, and rightly so.
I like it. She skewered him without being ugly about it.
In fact, he may be the worst person in the world, but there are so many candidates, he’s just not worthy or important enough.
Palin Amen Chorus?
Did anyone ever tell you that you're annoying...
Ya think she used Obama’s teleprompter?
