Leave Bristol Alone!


No matter how bad they fuck up, we let them play us like a violin.

1. Its just about being respectful about family
and taking the high road in this instance. There are tons of real policy ways to work on Palin and her daughter is not the way to accomplish it. It's not a winning issue for repubs at all; in fact I doubt they mention it again unless it makes the news that "far left blog sites and internet sites" are fanning the flames and attacking their minor daughter.

2. Sarah fucking Palin does not respect our families, why should we respect hers?
She wants to define what a family is, and she is against birth control and abortion rights.

10. I hear the sound of "don't be mean to Republicans."
If I had my way, they would all be standing trial for crimes against the Republic and the people.

12. Shes pro-life, pro-contraceptives and only supports abortion if the mothers life is in danger.

I've been trying to figure out where she stands on the morning after pill, which some pro-life people do support. Not finding anything on it.

If you have a link to the contrary I'd love to see it.

11. And contrariy to popular belief we do talk about
them in the public schools here. we even answer questions about being gay, lesbian, bisexual, transsexual, etc. Is it as complete as some schools in other states; heck no. But thankfully it is more than some places so the kids at least have a clue besides the TV.

5. I don't know who bothers me more: the baby-knocking trolls or the offended trolls
It is pretty much a toss-up.
