As the old saying says....  What goes around, comes around.

Parts of your article are a little too close to "they do it too" justification. Let's do as Blonde suggests and tell everyone to leave the kids out of it.

"Obama's health care 'reform' plan is to blow up the building in order to fix a leak in the roof." - Herman Cain

Ain't nothing strange about their daddy...

All kids should be left alone.

I will stick by that even though the rule is actually - all Democrat's kids should be left alone; Palin's kids are fair game.  As are any other  kids whose conservative parents are hated by the left. 

I guess that's just the way it is going to have to be.  

  Does anyone think there would have been any negative comments had she worn a plain white t-shirt?

  You make a political message with a political sign, you are gonna take fire from people that disagree with your political message.

  That said, I only read comments at NewsBusters and Powelineblog where they do not allow anonymous users.

   Millions died when we turned our back on South Vietnam. And we turned our back thanks in large part to the hippies and their anti-war movement.

A Peace of History Turns 50

by Chris Hubbuch

A familiar icon has reached a milestone. The peace symbol turns 50 today.Before it was a hippie fashion accessory, before it became the emblem of the Vietnam era anti-war movement, the peace symbol stood for nuclear disarmament.

The British Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament details the origins of its logo.

Designed by British artist and conscientious objector Gerald Holtom for what then was the Direct Action Committee Against Nuclear War, the bisected circle with two downward spokes combined the semaphores for the letters "N" - two flags held down at a 45 degree angle - and "D," one up, one down.

The symbol was unveiled Feb. 21, 1958, according to the New York Public Radio show "On the Media," and made its public debut at a 1958 Easter weekend anti-nuclear march, according to CND.

It later migrated to the U.S., where it was adopted by student pacifists and later by the anti-Vietnam War movement.

Columbia University professor Todd Gitlin said it was in the mid- to late 1970s that the peace sign started to become more of a fashion statement.

As the anti-war activists of the 1960s grew older, a younger generation was looking for a way of declaring who they were, Gitlin said. "For them, it seemed to signify being righteous or hip."

"Back in the '60s and '70s, everyone was familiar with the sign. People were putting it on their graduation caps," said Keith Knutson, a Viterbo University professor who said he protested the Vietnam War before serving in the Navy.

Knutson compares the Vietnam War to the current war in Iraq. Both were wars of choice, not necessity, he said. "But the peace symbol doesn't seem to be coming back."

This really trips me out.Here this 10/11 year old gets slimed by some posters on a site.Yet some are bringing up about her wearing a peace sign?Do you really thinks she understands the significance of it?Or because Sara's kids were target of some left wing septic sippers that it is ok if the same is done against the kids of the left.Frelling amazing. 

There was a time (a mere few weeks ago, to be exact) when I would have agreed that children should be off-limits.  The reaction to and treatment of Sarah Palin's children has changed my mind.

We can't win if we're playing by a different set of rules.  If you think being nice to the Obama children is going to stop attacks on Sarah's (or some other conservative's children) you've got another thought coming!  

Time to take off the gloves and stop playing nicey-nice.  Our opponents are making good use of the "Rules for Radicals."  It's time to pick up a copy and start playing the Alinsky game. 

So it took a another conservative blog about one of your own to finally understand what it is like to be Sara Palin and family for A DAY. Liberal hypocrites, tasteless comments sure, but if taken in the proper text as tit for tat, totally unpleasant isn't it if it happens to anyone, right or left. Grow up and have the same spine to tell your own kind enough is enough and start to bring civility back to the democratic party and liberal left.

  I think the leave the kids alone movement is missing a few points. Look at the original article from the BBC (Noel linked to it).

Miss Obama's peacenik T-shirt sends a message to G8 leaders

Her father had just won agreement from the Russians to cut back on the world's stockpiles of nuclear weapons.

And Barack Obama's eldest daughter was obviously keen to make her own statement on the issue - even if it was merely a fashion statement.

Just 48 hours after the U.S. President signed agreements with Russian president Dmitry Medvedev to reduce weapon stores, 11-year-old Malia Obama was spotted wearing not one, but two T-shirts with an anti-nuclear message.

   2 T-shirts people. She did it twice. She was with her mother in the second picture.

   She was keen on sending a message to us goobs that don't believe in giving in to the Russians most especially when we get nothing out of it. This is the actions of an 11 year old with no political intentions?

   No one is condoning nasty comments by anonymous posters at another website. Anonymous posters that could be left wing plants by the way. This is a common tactic of the left. They come here to do it constantly.

  MSNBC wants to report on a decadal event. Nasty comments on the children of public parents on a right wing website. MSNBC ignores the daily example of such nastiness on left wing websites.

  Now we don't condone punching hippies here. We just understand why mr. hand turns into mr. fist. 

Sincerely,

a Veteran of a 1000 psychic wars.

children the same protection they think the Obama girls should have, they can go f*** themselves.  They accuse the Right of whining and they're comparing a blog's nasty cmments to comments routinely made on national TV and in national publications.

Does she understand that her Dada is runing a war?????

Remember the famous words of the "O"? If my kids screw arround and get knocked up I wouldn't want them to be straped with raising a kid. And "God" forbid I or M might have to raise it!!!!!! 

(Post edited by management for offensive content.)

according the liberal media logic that was used to bash the Palin daughters, that Sarah Palin made them targets by bringing them on stage, and making them political issue, Obama's daughters fall into the same category. Many called Palin's daughters fair game because they were paraded on stage, "used as props", did interviews, or were on the cover of magazines....

Malia is  outting herself in the middle of a political debate, according to the reports, by wearing this t-shirt, taking sides on a muclear arms debate, thus choosing to make herself a political target.

"Just 48 hours after the U.S. President signed agreements with Russian president Dmitry Medvedev to reduce weapon stores, 11-year-old Malia Obama was spotted wearing not one, but two T-shirts with an anti-nuclear message. She wore the tops emblazoned with the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament's famous logo as her father prepared for three days of G8 talks in Italy."

This was the logic used to attack Palin's kids....but now it is not ok for Obama's daughter? Shocker!

http://tinyurl.com/nwv6ab

Personally, I think she just wore the peace tees because kids like the symbol. And I do NOT think the comments are appropriate, nor do I think they are fair game. But, the libs can't have it both ways. Either Malia is now fair game, based on their logic, or they admit they are wrong to have attacked the Palin kids - and they back the hell off.

... on a t-shirt, on a girl, read this:

http://weblogs.newsd...

This is even written by what I gather to be a liberal/Democrat. Read the first paragraphs. She herself calmly concedes:

Malia Obama is getting into the political arena without uttering a word. Instead, she’s letting fashion do her talking.

Just a couple of days after President Barack Obama and Russian President Dmitry Medvedevagreed to cut back on nuclear weapons, the 11-year-old was spotted in Italy wearing two T-shirts that blared anti-nuclear sentiments.

As the president readied for the G-8 talks there,Malia turned out in a gray T-shirt bearing the famous Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament’s peace sign logo during a visit to the Coliseum in Rome.

AMAZING. And here many of us are saying, "hey, leave the kids out of it", when this is not just a political statement on a shirt -- 2 shirts, mind you, bought at different times that day! -- but with the timing, and done on foreign land, you could venture to theorize there's maybe some calculation behind this.

This is no Palin's-kids thing at ALL. Yes, we should not attack Malia herself, obviously, but the incident is unprecedented and is a frightful indication of just how blase', thoughtless (or perhaps, thoughtFUL), and very far to the left our current president and leader of the free world is. 

You're the next contestant on...
THE MESSIAH IS... LEFT !!

The liberals very purposely equate posts from an anonymous commenter on a right-wing site with real articles from journalists or diarists on left-wing sites including real magazines. Some of the bile spewed on what was once a respectable magazine like The Atlantic for example are comparable only to anonymous comments on right-wing sites. Even at that, the bilious comments on the right-wing site might not survive the day.

This is a false comparison done by the left-wing desperate to excuse their extremist philosophy and tactics.

but she is NOT dressed the way the daughter of a US President should be dressed.

She looks fine for play but she is in a foreign country and even if she and her parents don't like it, she represents the United States.

Then again I see how her mother dresses and gulp, poor kid! No class, No grace, and NO sense of style!

I thought the Carter's were bad?

We should all chip in, and send the Obammas the DVDs on What not to wear, and  the book Presidency for Dummies

First, I had no idea this Schuster pinhead is a part of the Daily Kook, one of the biggest hate sites out there this side of RATunderground.com and says nothing about all the hate (and threats) that his fellow libtard mouth breathing troglodytes spew over there.

Second, I would not put it past said libtards to sabatoge FREEP with hate comments on Obama and/or his family. Time and time again it has been proven that the modern Moveonmoonbat.org left is full of unrelenting hate for Conservatives and the Conservative movement. They will stop at nothing. We must stop them in 2010 and 2012. 

I just got done reading the update at Freepers....some very interesting stuff...very interesting indeed...you can bet msnbc will do their best to omit this...but the word is getting around now...big time.

I really enjoyed reading a lot of the posts too...here is the link again if you haven't been there and want to read all the inside info of what they have uncovered.

Doubling down on stupid is not a particularly good idea. ~Andrew Breitbart

Does this mean we will no longer be seeing anythng of the two Obama girls from now on.  I mean, we can't be PARADING the children around, can we?

I didn't vote for the "wrinkly old guy", I voted for her.

Chris Parry eventually came onto FR and admitted he was HollywoodOz, while naturally denying that he had any hand in the racist shenanigans. However, there are links to kos posts where he stated that (kos operatives) should go onto conservative sites, post racist comments and pretend to be conservatives. Interesting little turn of events there, eh?

So this just happens and he just happens to stumble upon it innocently. And interestingly all of the most offensive posters were either first time posters, or happened to have registered at FR in 09/08 - at a time when he and others were urging libs to create accounts in case they were ever needed.

And Parry, being the erstwhile reporter at Vancouver Sun, uses his newspaper to bring this scandal to the attention of other media sources. And manages to get the storry written and submitted within 15 minutes of the earliest and most vile posts being posted. That's some mighty fast writing, eh? Oh yes, and one other thing - he conveniently left the screen names off of the most vile comments in his report. Almost as if he had the story written in advance or something, lol. 

Here is a simple track to prove that Chris Parry = Hollywood Oz. (Though it's moot now that Parry admitted it, it was fun to see the progression).

1)  kos site for hollywoodoz, in which he claims to own a business called Unreel Media. http://www.dailykos.... (This page is only used to identify him - there is nothing truly offensive on this page, however if you can stomach it, and he has not yet succeeded in cleaning up his more vile posts, I understand there is a lot of nastiness from him on kos.)

2) Scout.com site, where Parry's connection to both unreel media and the blog called notes from the nate are verified: http://athletics.sco...  

Interviewer Notes: Chris Parry is a Canadian-based writer and journalist Unreel Media,
who covers the Northwest League for Oakland Clubhouse. He can be heard
on CJSF 90.1FM Vancouver every Sunday morning from 11am-1pm… as long as
the Canadians aren’t playing at home. He is also the author of a blog
about the Vancouver Canadians called "Notes from the Nat".

3) Technorati site showing that HollywoodOz is Chris Parry, and that he is the owner of the blog called Notes from the Nat. http://technorati.co...

There you have it. It looks simple, but the OP on Free Republic had to do a lot of work to dig up this proof of lefty shenanigans. There could possibly be a lawsuit there, but at the least Chris Parry deserves to be dragged through the mud and have his name tarnished for this.

Proof positive that at least one liberal is trying to race-bait to make conservatives look bad.

So what do you all think? Will Shuster go through with this report? Will he report it and gloss over the fact that Parry is neck deep in it? Or will he report it, and try to twist the outing of Parry into some conservative conspiracy plot?

"I would rather be historically accurate than politically correct" ~ My husband's T-Shirt

Commenters and bloggers aren't the same thing...I wonder how many realize that out there in TV land?  Now, if a blogger had said those things, then I can see an issue being made of it and the blogger being called to task.  BOR attacked the Free Republic last year over a thread that was taken completely out of context...just so he could say he was 'fair and balanced' by attacking a conservative forum.

But the gauntlet was thrown down by the Libtards, and not just in the blogosphere...by well-known public personages no less, so I'm a little less offended by such posts and don't blame someone for not treating the little darlings as members of a protected species, still two wrongs don't make a right...but I'm sick of the double-standard.  Children should indeed be left alone...ALL children.

The thing is, these could be trolls as pointed out above.  Even with you having to post your SSN in order to comment on conservative forums like these Commies would like, you could still be a shill.

This stuff is analogous to writing junk on bathroom stall dividers and phone booths.  As long as it's not a death threat or a believable lie that would be libel, these types should be ignored or jumped upon by other members or edited by moderators.  Ultimately the 'ban button' is always available.  But I question some of these site owners and mods when it comes to their interpretation of freedom of speech.

I think that any such anonymous posts need to be taken for what they are.  Obviously, this is just ammunition for jerks like Shuster.

One of the 34% who thinks George W. Bush was a great President. One of the 61% who wants to bring back the stock and pillory (yep...approval for Congress now at 39%...do you believe that!?).

Looks like dave has his pulse on the kids beat scene these days.

Nice to know he's evolved a little from his "Pimping out Chelsea" comments.

   I am glad I am not a Vietnam veteran, only a veteran of a latter  war in addition to the 1000 psychic wars.

  This is yet another slap in the face of Vietnam veterans, the most maligned group a veterans in the history of this country.

 Ok, the orders just came in from meek central. I will now shut up for the kids.

 Before I go, here is the official meek clothing line for the little 'uns. http://www.punkbabyclothes.net/liberal_baby_clothes.html Look at all the fun stuff you can put on your childs chest and the meek can say nothing about it.

How many Veterans are offended by the peace symbol and why? 

 And they are not hiding behind the Please, don't pick on the children skirt.

 Also, me. Count me as one that is offended.
