McCain/Palin would have been much more credible if they would have owned up to this scandal last week

What scandal? IT's not a Palin/McCain scandal. A girl and a guy committed a sin. Maybe they have confessed that sin before God, and maybe their priest, maybe they haven't.

I commit sin, as I presume you do -- and no person is without sin.

You accuse this 17-year-old of a scandal because she had sex. But Jesus admonished you -- If you even LOOK on a woman with lust in your heart, you have committed the same sin this girl and guy did.

If Palin had had an affair, I'd call for her to be dumped from the ticket. But it's no place for the mother to confess the sins of the daughter, unless that is what the daughter wants.

I did not have sex until I was married. I hope my son and daughter do likewise, but it is not within my power to force them. And if they sin and they have a child, I expect them to do the right thing -- but that does not include me announcing it to the world.

Reading is not one of your specialities, is it?

No where did I say this scandal is Bristol’s fault.

What I said was that for McCain and Palin not to have been honest and upfront about this was dishonest.

I agree with you again, Charles. And I, like you, by the grace of God, waited until marriage.

Ironically, I’ll bet the people who are for casting the first stone can’t same the same thing.
