The most disgusting thing about the Bristol/Tripp F-word crap?

It's completely manufactured to get attention. This isn't live TV. They could have edited it out.

trying to turn an ugly slur uttered by a toddler into increased ratings is beyond disgusting.

I doubt there's a more craven or tackier family in the entire world than the Palins.

The only family that could take them on for tacky and loonacy would be the Bachmanns. But, I think all of their children are grown and flew the coop so it would just be Marcus doing his wife's hair and make up and ranting about gays. And Michele nodding in agreement and saying the only thing worse is that the Muslim Brotherhood has so many spies in DC.

It makes every inch of me hurt, and very sad for America. And what a great parent that girl is! No wonder the kid is so obnoxious; empty threats from mommy while she just giggles at him.

What disgusting people. America should be ashamed for making them celebrities.
