Bristol Palin's pregnancy is a "damaging revelation " that has caused Sarah Palin's image to "suffer." Says who? Says ABC News, in an article by Rick Klein and Jennifer Parker.
In Palin Pregnancy Rocks Political World, Klein and Parker report reaction from a variety of Republican and traditional-values sources. Every one, from Dr. James Dobson to Grover Norquist to Chuck Donovan of the Family Research Council to a pro-life delegate to the GOP convention who said "the fact that her daughter's keeping it and marrying the father is wonderful," had a positive reaction.
But what do they know? Declare Klein and Parker [emphasis added]:
Palin's image may suffer further if more damaging revelations come out in the coming days and weeks.
Just what is "damaging" about the revelation? ABC doesn't really say, other than to assert that "the pregnancy raises complicated questions for conservative voters regarding issues of teenage sexual activity. And -- perhaps more troubling for the McCain-Palin ticket -- the revelation comes during a critical period where voters are just beginning period where voters are just beginning to learn about Palin and her family."
What's so "complicated"? Yes, teenagers have sex, including children of the prominent and pro-life. Does ABC mean to imply that Sarah Palin is poor mother? Bristol Palin [seen at far left in photo, holding brother Trig] is keeping the baby and marrying the father. Shouldn't we be celebrating those choices and the mother who instilled the values they reflect?

September 1, 2008 - 16:32 ET by JWFOnly ABC's image is suffering. Disgusting.
I had one against ABC
September 1, 2008 - 17:18 ET by allamericandudefor the hack job Charlie and Stephanopolis did against Obama in the debate in the Primaries but this alone will make me forgive them. I can see they are making some effort to be more objective. It used to be just Republican talking points all the time on that network.
The fact the the Repubs have a Veep candidate with such a stunning family values problem is just sweet. They are getting a taste of their own bitter pill. This may not be a big deal to many ordinary Americans but the religious fanatics in the GOP will not tolerate this kind of lifestyle from Palin. Her daughter got pregnant out of wedlock and that is atrocious to them. I told you Palin would be a disaster and you never believed me now it is playing out in front of your eyes. I know many of you see this as a nightmare even though you won't admit it. The lunatic fringe in the GOP will cannibalize this pick like they did Harriet Miers. This is all good for me though. There is hardly anything I enjoy more than sitting back and watching Republicans devour themselves.
Enjoy

Nice Try
September 1, 2008 - 17:33 ET by Del DolemonteFirst of all, the mother of your Messiah, Stanley Ann Dunham, became pregnant with little Barry when she was 17 years old.
But your wishful thinking won't wash. As the Christian Broadcasting Network's David Brody notes:
"I’m sure lots of people will take their shots at the pro-life Christian woman but hold on a moment. If you think Evangelicals are going to ditch her for this, you’re totally misreading the situation. As a matter of fact, they are ready to fire back at any potential critics…
Look, this development will actually be positive for the most part with Evangelicals. First they hear that Sarah Palin chooses the life option even though she had a Downs Syndrome baby and once again the family (and Bristol) has chosen the life option in this recent case. That’s a double “ca-ching”.
Let’s call this the Evangelical daily double. If anything, this whole situation will probably make more people around the country relate to her and her family. It makes them more real. Will there by some turned off by the whole pre-marital sex thing? Of course but this type of story doesn’t sink her at all with Evangelicals."

They're perverting everything in hopes of completely destroying this country from the inside out. We will take back our schools and airwaves eventually, but until that time, your poison will reach even children of good people.

Pacifism is a luxury bought with the blood of the valorous
Learn to think like a conservative, poser
September 2, 2008 - 12:52 ET by CobraMan"So what part of the conservative movement includes knocking up underage girls?"
Just who in the "conservative movement" knocked up a teenage girl? Was it McCain, Bush, Rove, any other known conservative? The fact of the matter is that the teenage daughter ISN'T running for office, her mother is. This blatant attack on Governor Palin’s daughter is going to backfire on you. The fact that she's KEEPING the baby is testament to her respect for human life and her commitment to accepting responsibilities for her actions. Those are both TRUE conservative values. Why is that so hard for you to accept, or even admit?
"Wait, wait isn't one of the reasons for the Palin pick because we have serious problems with social values?"
No, she's a candidate for VP because of her past accomplishments and her current experience, both of which dominate the opposition. Also, as a VP there's very little Palin can do to actually affect society. She's not running for President, so stop acting like she's going to be POTUS and will make policy decisions. The lack of intelligence you display in your assaults on our sensibilities is appalling. You should work for CBS!
Obama: My job is above my pay grade
um...
September 1, 2008 - 17:37 ET by candanceWhat do you mean she hid it? A week ago you didn't even know who Sarah Palin was. What was she supposed to do, use her first speech with McCain to say "I"m Sarah Palin and my daughter is pregnant"?
What's really damaging is DKos trying to start a rumor that Bristol gave birth to Trig, only to discover that it's physically impossible. Smooth move there.
Even Obama said it wasn't a big deal. Maybe you should email him with your hunch about an oncoming meltdown.

Question
September 2, 2008 - 08:22 ET by UnsaneWhat does Palin's daughter getting knocked up have to do with Mrs. Palin's ideas?
Whoever casts a vote for Obama-Biden is nothing more than a common thief. Whoever fails to vote against them is nothing more than a moral coward.
Ideas? It has to do with her parenting skills.

September 2, 2008 - 08:40 ET by dvdaughtryUnfortunetly, you have a sliver of a point here. I would bet $100 that Palin feels she failed her daughter.
But you are an arrogant, pompous ass to think she lacks parental skills because her daughter made a poor choice.

She does lack parenting skills

September 2, 2008 - 19:45 ET by Conservative Voiceor the daughter is a typical teenager and lacks the wisdom required, BUT has more bravery than any of us...because your sins aren't plastered all over the news...no one knows who you are.
Again, you are just
September 3, 2008 - 12:12 ET by dvdaughtryAgain, you are just scratching the surface. As a former teenager, I too was dumb as a rock.
Let me ask you this: was she stupid for getting knocked up, or stupid for having sex. Your answer here will tell us all we need to know about your stance on this subject.
The lass went against what she was taught and now bears the consequence of her actions. She will live with this the rest of her life. She will make the best of it, though, even with jerk-offs like you beating her down.
My in-laws had this happen two times out of three girls. They neither were bad parents, nor lacked skills as now ALL three daughters are successful in their lives and raising to their families.
Good people make bad decisions. Bad people make good ones. There comes a time and a place when children will make their own, decisions--no matter what mom and dad taught.

IDEAS
September 2, 2008 - 08:42 ET by UnsaneIDEAS. Stick with me. IDEAS.
(If I were to hold my parents to that same standard, they would be pretty s$!#&y parents as well. But here is the dirty little secret of parenting, and what makes it such a bitch: you can parent and instill perfect values all day and all night long in your children, but you cannot and will not watch your children 24 hours a day. And even if you could, one day, you HAVE to go take a dirt nap.
In the end, your children can and WILL act all on their own and you as a parent will be totally powerless to stop them. The only thing you CAN do as a parent is hope and pray they do the right thing.)

September 2, 2008 - 08:46 ET by Dee Bunkno parent and most normal people who have siblings know that children all turn out different despite being raised the same.
Sex is something people give into because of strong physical urges. Abortion is a deliberative choice based on values.
Liberals don't get that just because you want to teach children abstinence doesn't mean you think they are evil if they slip up. Bristol is facing the responsibility of her actions and it's very admirable in this abortion encouraging society. It's much more common for children to abort without ever even consulting a trusted adult.
