Off limits??

Obama could not be more wrong.

Democrats and their families are held up for public scrutiny. And so are the Palins and all other republicans.

Off limits? Only a moron would argue that point.

Let me state this: If any Freeper thinks this subject should be off limits; then please reply to the Admin Moderator with your request to send this entire thread into zots-ville.

When and if I see this thread gone, gone, gone....

Then I will see that Obama is right; that this is “off limits”.

McCain should not sully his hands with the filthy money of anyone so sanctimonious as to stop a check because of this situation.

Yes, the beauty of Ronald Reagan was that he stood for important principles in governance and led his life with grace and generosity—without being preachy, sanctimonious or judgmental about his supposed moral superiority or the supposed moral inferiority of others.

Clinton was the PRESIDENT, and a married man who kept on sinning and lying about it.

How on earth can you compare that to the actions of a 17 year old who, by the way, is not lying about it or covering it up?

Oh, and she isn’t running for public office, either.

I think Sarah and Todd and Bristol were going to keep this just in their family which is as it should have been, but they had to come forward to stop the rumors. This can be laid at the feet of the Obama campaign. Its not going to sit well with the American people. The democrats right to choose means abortion period. Choosing to have the baby is not an option to them.

As a matter of history, pissant was the one who was personally responsible for bringing Duncan Hunter to FR during the primaries for an interview. The leftist candidates were falling all over each other to get on Daily Kos. All we got was Duncan Hunter thanks to pissant.

Teen pregnancy is a “social” problem only inasmuch as some drop babies to get cash. It is also a moral problem. But the govt. can't address that. We are not talking about some 14 yr old crack whore. We are talking about a 17 yr old woman who is engaged to be married. It's none of our business.

What is there to be outraged about?

Children are a blessing from the Lord. This child is a blessing and will be welcomed into their family with loving arms. Bristol made the wrong decision and she's accepting responsibility for her decision. It's not like the Palin’s tried to hide this.

Unlike Obama, who would encourage his daughter to kill his grandson or granddaughter based on the timing of the pregnancy. Obama is morbid in that he is willing to advocate killing one of his own grandchildren. How he calls himself a Christian is perplexing.

The Palins are very relatable to the Right in how they are responding to Bristol's decision. They are glorifying it, but rather forgiving and loving. The bottom line, a young girl made the right decision about her baby, which speaks to her character.

This girl feels pretty rotten right now. She knows she made a mistake. She also knows that 2 wrongs don’t make a right, and she’s willing to take responsibility for her actions. That’s alot more than some people would do. Get off her case!

I am sickened by the people on this thread who are ready to bring out not only the scarlet letter, but the tar and feathers as well!

May you receive the same treatment when YOU make a mistake. When YOU ask for forgiveness and understanding, remember how you spoke of this girl!

They know Sarah will have American in tears over her wonderful answer.

Kinda puts the "out of touch with real Americans and their problems" spin attacks in the non viable category.

“I have said before and I will repeat again: People’s families are off limits ... And people’s children are especially off-limits. This shouldn’t be part of politics. It has no relevance to Gov. Palin’s performance as a governor and/or her potential performance as a vice president. So I would strongly urge people to back off these kinds of stories. You know my mother had me when she was 18 and how a family deals with issues and teenage children, that shouldn’t be a topic of our politics.”

Is there something in the Bible that condemns teen pregnancy? Is there a conservative manual that says that teen pregnancy is evil?????????

The Bible says that fornication, defined as the sin of impurity between unmarried persons, is a sin (2 Cor 12:21, Gal 5:19), but it also says "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." (Rom 3:23) We often think one sin is worse than another, but God doesn't have a list of best to worst. Some sins have more consequences than others, but if a person repents, God will forgive both "major" and "minor" sins.

"Al Gore’s son arrested on drug charges!" Yes he was, and it got 299 posts:

And when he was arrested again for speeding, with a car loaded with drugs, the main reaction from the MSM was "I didn't know a Prius could go that fast."

You have no idea what she feels right now, unless she told you.

Did she?
