Here is why Sarah's 5th pregnancy matters

No matter who gave birth to Trig, there are many problems with the things Sarah has done.

1. If the child is her daughters, it is ridiculous at best & downright abusive at worst, to force your child to hide a pregnancy. This is not the 50's. The only reason Sarah would do this is to protect her own ass.
Her own DUMB ass that is against sex education. She believes in abstinence only. No matter WHOSE child that is, the fact is that at the very least her other daughter is now pregnant. This means that
her ABSTINENCE ONLY plan didn't work out so well. Would this be a time for her to learn from experience & realize that sex education is a NECESSITY? Of course not.

2. If the child is HERS... frankly, it's even worse. She says she knew from the amnio at 13 weeks that Trig would have Downs Syndrome. Factoring this in, along with age, how responsible was it to fly to Texas when she was 36 weeks pregnant? How responsible was it, that when her water broke, she decided to stay in Texas at the conference she was attending, GIVE A SPEECH and then FLY HOME TO ALASKA? On a flight that included a layover. Upon landing in Alaska, she chose not to go to the closest hospital. Instead, they drove 45 minutes to the hospital closer to their home. What kind of HUMAN BEING does that?!?!?!?!?! She took a maternity leave of THREE DAYS. That's right, 3 days. There is no job in this country that could legally demand your return in 3 days. It's completely unheard of and totally unhealthy. It points to a lack of care and concern for her son. What mother decides that going to work 3 days later is more important than bonding with her child?????


All of the above points to what kind of person Sarah is. She seems ridiculously shallow & uneven at best. How about the fact that she DID NOT DISCUSS WITH HER FAMILY the ramifications of her accepting the VP nod from McCain??? She told her parents to listen to the radio for a special announcement... and told her son to watch the TV.

Her parenting is atrocious. She only cares about herself. I wouldn't put her second in command at the SPCA, much less my country. She is clearly not operating with a full deck & is selfish to the hilt.

As for the silly fundies and freepers that are behind her 100%.... I can't help but :eyes: at those IDIOTS! This woman does not promote family values! She puts HER ambition above that of her family time and again.
She didn't even have the common decency to let her children know she was about to throw their entire family into chaos. Do some research. I guarantee that EVERY SINGLE OTHER CANDIDATE EVER has told a story about how they consulted with their family first. These decisions affect lives. You go from being a private citizen to having secret service protection. It is a HUGE change! Did she prepare her family for this? NO.


Add all of that in to her complete lack of competence and experience & you have what we call a total cluster f*ck.
