It only says volumes about your single mindedness. A pro life woman has a 17 year old pregnant daughter and chooses to make sure the daughter has it. I do not see the problem here? |

I disagree completely with the Muslim crap, could care less about the drug use. The clergy issue is mildly relevant as a weak indicator of his world view and his experience is a definite legitimate issue.
Palin's daughter being unwed and pregnant is not about Palin. It is a shot at the family. The base will likely rally because the family is accepting and supporting the decision to keep the baby.
Palin is less experienced on foreign policy than Obama - that is a legit issue. However, she does have more Executive experience and most importantly - she is NOT running for POTUS.

Under the circumstances of what she was touted to be for the right wing of the party, can you imagine that McCain would have chosen her if he knew 1) pregnant teenage daughter; 2) got her passport a year ago (given the one thing he was getting traction on versus Obama)?
She is the antithesis of everything she at first blush is supposed to be.

As for the foreign policy stuff, that's clearly not why McCain chose her. |

The guy says he knew. The campaign says he knew. The Palin's say he knew but somehow you know that he's lying. Quite the powers you have there.
You have as much proof about this as I do about Obama deeply believing every view of his pastor.

anything? | She's not running for Vice Parent. Her having the unwed pregnant daughter says about as much as Obama's comment about not "punishing" his children with a child. |

You are one of these people that confuse right wing conservatives with the idea that they think they are pefect. That is NOT what being Christian Conservative is about. |

She is the antithesis of everything she at first blush is supposed to be. | I don't think the pregnancy has any negative consequence on the right wing side of things. It is actually a reinforcing idea for social conservatives.

She is the antithesis of everything she at first blush is supposed to be. | LG, you talk about hating Hannity...but you are getting your talking points from Combes
Like Carl Rove said to Alan just now, "that's weak". |
