Again, IF TRUE (it's not on the official website), this is very sad.
You're viewing this through your own filters. The reality is that it'll blow over in about 24-48 hours. In a couple weeks the Palins can appear on some talk show to talk about how good people sometimes make mistakes, but it's how we react to them that defines us. The net result will be to have no impact whatsoever on the race.
How do you know they didn’t use a condom? You do realize they’re not 100% effective. If they bash the Palins has white trash, they will most assuredly lose the election.
You can't prevent teen sexual activity and it's stupid to pretend otherwise. Sarah should have made sure Bristol was on the pill and knew about the importance of using condoms.
NONSENSE. It could only be used to bash socons as hypocrites if Bristol Palin HAD AN ABORTION. The fact she is keeping the child and marrying its fathers reinforces Palin's pro-life views.
Good Lord, the self-righteous are out in force today!
No, it’s not nonsense. IF TRUE, it’s going to be used endlessly to bash socons as hypocrites,”
They can and will bash the Palins all they want. Bristol made a mistake but Sarah is doing the honorable and only right thing by encouraging her daughter to marry the dad just as she did the right thing when she was told Trig had Downs. She is living her faith and doing the right thing in God’s eyes and in the eyes of most in America.
They’re going to bash the Palins on things that have no basis in fact as we’ve already seen with the Bristol being the mom of Trig lunacy. If the dims get too nasty with this it will absolutely blow up in their face as they’ve already alienated many Hillary supporters.
You are assuming the pregnancy wasn’t planned.
That’s quite a leap.
The first person I've seen connect the Palins with the term "trailer trash" over this situation is you.
IF TRUE, it's going to be used endlessly to bash socons as hypocrites, as "proof" that only pushing condoms on teens can prevent teen sexual activityCondoms are not used to prevent sexual activity. They are used during sexual activity to prevent conception and the spread of sexually transmitted diseases. They are not foolproof in either case: Only abstinence is.
and to bash the Palins in particular as trailer trash.I certainly wouldn't put it past the left to paint as "trailer trash" a family with a teenager who made a teenage mistake but then makes the very adult and mature decision to do the right and honorable thing by accepting the consequences and marrying the father, thus bringing the child into the world as part of a family. The mindset of the left is reprehensible.
Again, IF TRUE (it's not on the official website), this is very sad.What is sad is what Obama would want to do to the child if it were his daughter who became pregnant. This 17-year-old girl is more responsible than the Democratic candidate for the Presidency.
trailer trash? your remark puts you lower than the dumpster in the alley.
