She advocated abstinence, a mistake was made and they are taking responsibility for it with a loving attitude - sounds like family values to me.

This is a man friendly with a domestic terrorist, sat, for 20 years, in the pews of a church run by a marxist idealogue, and doesn't understand the Laffer curve.

how would he pick Secretary of State?
he's reckless
an MSNBC commentator said the choice of VP is the most un-democratic thing we do in America - and McCain is foisting this unqualified pick on America.
This is the new line of attack - he's reckless. His judgement is poor.

| "Us" magazine has a hit piece on Palin hitting the shelves this Friday. Michelle Malkin P.D.S. alert: Us magazine’s partisan hit job
