Wow...this poor Palin family can’t really have any life?

Have any life? Do they seem deprived of a life to you? I get that she wants to make a living to support her son, but it just looks like a bit of opportunism to me. Oh, well... if she makes an armload of $, what the hey.

Opportunism?

What principles do you think she is disregarding?

None really. But it's the same crap as with Meghan McCain: a nobody who thinks they're important because of who their parents are. Wonder how well M. McCain's recent book sold.

Yes, that’s certainly possible...she may not run. However it is disturbing to me that her antics and various escapades continue in full view of the audiance. She would do her mom well by stepping back several notches. She’s starting to look more like a Hollywood kid....rather like Bushes daughters along the way. Not helpful IMO.

I agree there is far too much sensitivity happening on the Palin threads, and these are open forums to voice ones opinions. I’m for Palin but even I am hesitant to post on most of them because of the sensitivities...and I am not alone in this.

However it is what it is indylindy...so IMO better to just lay back until one can find a reasonable discussion. There are threads which have them, you just have to find so.

Her initiative is by far preferable to being a welfare mom.

uh? There's not a chance ever of Palins daughter being a welfare mom....get real.

"Let's see, after my memoir I can learn to fly the space shuttle.
Oh, darn there won't be any more shuttles after April.
Hey! If mom becomes Prez she can order them to let me fly one!...but I wanna fly somewhere cool, like a planet with a beach or something"

You are such a fruitless goober. Predictable as hell too.

Hahahahaha!

Practice what you preach. Your whole post to me was a flurry of hate and frustration that you can’t make people agree to think as you wish them too.

My advice to you? Get over it and live with what is.

You miss my point. She could sit home and wait for people to take care of her and her child (like the typical welfare mom). She is choosing not to do that.

No, I did not miss your point...and even here you speak of her being "taken care of". Nobody's going to have to take care of her or her child. Further there are many mothers who are stay at home moms NOT on welfare. You do a discredit to those who choose to be stay at homes moms...which if that's what Bristol choose to do I would be perfectly happy to see her do so.

Once more to clarify: I am applauding efforts by Bristol to take care of herself and her child financially by writing a book. I am definitely appreciative and supportive of stay-at-home moms because most show a deep valuing and commitment to the hard work of raising their family. I make a distinction between them and those who “sit at home” waiting to be taken care of by society. With our welfare state as it is, it doesn’t matter who your parents are, you can still qualify to be taken care of by the government. I’m applauding Bristol for choosing to take care of herself.
