Of what interest is the daughter’s sin to you? Are you her priest?
If Palin had sinned in a way that the public should know about, that would be a different matter. But the sins of her daughter?
Anyway, it’s not like they hid it. They simply didn’t make it part of the initial announcement.
BTW, being pregnant is not a sin. Having sex was the sin.
So, if her mother knew she was having sex, but she had NOT been pregnant, would you have insisted they tell us that their child was committing adultery? Of what business is that of yours?
You continue to NOT answer that simple question — why do you care that some 17-year-old-girl had sex?

It amazes me that so many have lost sight of the moral relevance that America once had.
Morality matters. Maybe not to you. Maybe not to the Clintons or other democrats, but to me, I would like to hope that my candidates are trying to live up to a higher standard than some democrat.
Of course I support the Palin’s decision. I would stand behind my daughter also.
But why.... Why did they feel the need to HIDE this? Why was this not disclosed until the last minute before the DUmmies tore it aprt.
McCain/Palin would have been much more credible if they would have owned up to this scandal last week.
There would have been far less damage done.
I suspect the reason is too disgustingly salacious to contemplate.
I'd really, really, really like to turn this on its head and turn the focus to those men and women who DO compound it with another, and live on "stolen" respectability in the sense that ending the pregnancy, in that it ends another life, is far worse than the act that conceived the child in the first place. Think of it in mathematical terms, with fornication having a negative ethical weighting of 5, and murder of 100. 105 > 5, thus the woman (and man) who abort carry a burden of conscience and live a lie. Every liberal woman you see can be suspected of having an abortion, which is far worse than what Bristol Palin is doing to rectify her mistake: marrying the man.
