Perhaps this "invasion" of privacy into Palin's family life will make her think twice

[Duer 157099]

about whether it's appropriate for her (via the government) to be doing the same to other families, women, pregnant teenagers.

I hope she gets that message. I hope that whatever price her family has to pay for this lesson, I just hope she doesn't miss it.

But then it may be too subtle of a message. I see many here also don't get it.

1. Agreed. All this handwringing as if Bristol will stop by DU and "we'll look bad"

I'll gladly "look bad", I have had Republicans try to peer in my bedroom window for decades. Good enough for them for once.

2. Not gonna happen.

Right wing authoritarians are highly tolerant of double-standards, faulty logic, and inequality, so long as they think it works in their favor.

That's why a draft-dodging Texas oil man is about to run off with their future. And should we be so unlucky as to have this election get close enough to steal, Palin will run off with whatever we have left.

3. In order to think twice, she would first have to be able to think once..

I doubt she is capable of that.

Fundies thrive on double standards and cognitive dissonances that would drive a normal person utterly mad.

Ummm come to think of it, fundies are already utterly mad..

4. LOL!

5. Who knows, maybe it will actually be her daughter that tells her

sometimes our kids can say pretty wise things to us, and the only reason we hear it is because it came from them.

6. I think the kids are off limits.

But that doesn't mean that we can't say that Palin is the poster child of the FAILURE of abstinance only education. Her daughter is a victim of this failed system. The details & such are private family matters. The fact that her beliefs, which she brings with her into this campaign, caused this problem is not. She has no experience & mediocre education so they're selling her on her pro-life stance & that she's a woman PERIOD. I don't think it's wrong to ask her pointed questions about sexual education & birth control. We all know she's against abortion, but would LOVE for America to be clear on what she really believes.

They want this person to be PRESIDENT??

11. Bullshit

I say we go for the throat...and who gives a fuck what worthless spoiled little repukes daughter's life we ruin as long as it helps win the election. We can worry about being nice when we are in a position of power. The fundies and repukes have brought this on themselves!!!!!!

12. (don't hold back--say what you really think) n/t

[Kablooie]

7. Or maybe she's ruthless enough not to care.

I mean she outted her daughter's pregnancy herself.
What caring mother would do that?

[OHDEM]

9. How true!

She could have skipped being VP now for her daughter's sake. But didn't.

[Skittles]

8. LOL

they are repukes - they don't CARE

[TaffyMoon]

10. Bah, this dingbat never thought once, never mind twice!

[orleans]

13. (i love your pictures and your name! just wanted to tell you) n/t

[Solly Mack]

14. No...it won't

the religious right just doesn't work that way
