Palin's 17 year old daughter is pro-life and accepts responsibility

    Palins 17 year old daughter is pro-life and accepts responsibility. Instead of taking her babies life she is developing a family. This should be the standard approach to pregnancy.

    I find this very notion laughable. I have no problem with a 17 year old being responsible in such a case.

    What I do have a problem with is the so called 'morality police' those who think morals or 'their morals' should be the way our country is run. In most cases a UNMARRIED 17 year old having a child in the past would be used to bash the absolute fuck out of the other side, now in this case it's twisted around into a pro morality 'right thing to do stance' about the most idiotic thing I read in a long time to be honest.

    This is not directed directly to you Homebiz, but anyone who thinks this is suddenly taking the hi road and still trying to claim the 'moral authority'

    It may be a surprise to some people, given the sympathetic hearing I am giving to Creationism, but I'm actually pro-choice when it comes to abortion. That said I do not believe in abortion as a quick fix alternative to contraception.

    Is a 17 year old girl ready to take such a huge responsibility? She is being forced into this IMO, to save her parents face. Is this fair?

    I don't necessarily believe she is being 'forced' into it.

    This will be her daughter's SECOND child. This is a cover-up of that first child.

    McCain clearly didn't think very long or very carefully about this VP choice. His judgment has been shown to be absolutely awful. He cannot be trusted to be President.

    The supposed cover up from my reading is a smear campaign, without any actual proof I myself will not give it any thought at all.

    Be careful about illegitimate children and cover ups. You forget you are pulling for Obama.


    I can put links on here about Obama's drug use, drug use from this year,extra marital affairs from even this year, homosexual activity from high school until now, murder for hire, his illegitimate children, communist teaching, black extremetionist and the crap goes on and on. The sources I list are about as true as the sources you list on McCain and Palin. Palin is better than Obama, Biden, or McCain. Obama has no action or platform.



    Obama touts Community Organizer where he did nothing. Come on come up with something better. Obama has done nothing but talk. You know it and I know it. He has no issues he will stand on except send me more money.

    She's just a kid, a 17 year old teenage girl. If she knew right from wrong, she would have been more careful in the first place. Her mother is suposedly a conservative pro-lifer, and so, now the girl is essentially stuck. Why would a 17 year old, unmarried girl, want a baby? Where's the fun in life then?

    I suspect the girl may be forced to give birth to the baby, and even get married at such a young age. Thats only my opinion. But we'll find more about it soon, once the media gets hold of it... How old is Levi, the guy who made the girl pregnant, and is he ready to marry her, and fulfill his responsibilities? Coz these two kids may be coerced into getting married, to save face. Afterall, she's gonna be the daughter of the Vice President of the country...

    I can't see why this is important.

    Sarah palin has a possible public role to play, so i can understand people discussing her. But what's so important about this chick? she's just like any other 17 year old chick.

    Shall we gossip about our neighbour's here too? :D

    I certainly do not forget that I am pulling for Obama. It's obvious that Obama is the only chance this country has for moving forward and as much as the right wingers would love some *real* controversy around Obama - there actually isn't any - Unlike McCain he never cheated on his wife.

    Sarah Palin is an extremist who believes that abortion should be illegal even in the case of rape. She did cover up her daughter's first child and is announcing this second pregnancy only to draw attention away from that. If you read the story that I linked to it's obvious that she was never pregnant and that her daughter was. It shows how little "vetting" the McCain people did on Palin. It shows how reckless he is with his decision making. McCain lacks the judgment necessary to be President.

    It sounds like an accident (otherwise she would have surely got married first) so the ideal situation would have been that she was more careful in the first place and used protection.

    :confused: I fail to see just how McCain's judgement comes into this.

    His judgment in picking such an obviously unqualified person who has many skeletons in her closet. He made a rash reckless decision. He had met this woman just one time before inviting her to be his VP. "Country First" ??? Not even close. He put politics first. The #1 criteria for a VP should be that they are ready to step in and be President at any time. Sarah Palin isn't even close to being able to do that. She knows NOTHING about the world. Just 2 years ago she was the mayor for a very small town. How do you go from being a small town mayor to possibly being commander in chief in just 2 years?

    This is a woman that touts her PTA experience. It's just mind bogglingly ridiculous.

    McCain does not have the judgment to be President. He's been wrong about everything over the last 8 years and he is getting more wrong by the day.

    I agree. However, I have some reporter friends who say that there are a lot of people looking into this and that the Washington Post is actively investigating the story. Time will tell.

    Frankly, I do not think she is qualified in any event, so this hardly matters to me at all.

    From my blog:
    A few days ago it appeared that McCain was attempting to seduce the Hilary Clinton supporters who may not have join the Barack Obama fight, however, further promoting his new “hip” image, he now seems to be courting the Brittany and Jamie Lynn Spears crowd.:)

    Agreed. It's good to see people putting their beliefs into action, despite those that would persecute them verbally for doing so.

    Too many young people do not accept responsibility for their actions. Murdering babies as a recourse for failed responsibility should not be an alternative.

    Developing a family? Should 17 year olds be developing a family? See Grim's quote below....

    Totally agree with you Grim. We shouldn't be preaching to other teenagers that this girl 'did the right thing' by keeping the baby. Let's just teach these girls that it's ok to get pregnant just as long as you keep the baby. Uh no. I'm not saying that we should preach abortion either, but we definitely should not be telling the American teenager that she kept the child so everything is A-ok. How about we preach that getting pregnant at her age is wrong, no matter the circumstances!!!

    She is doing "a" right thing. Probably "the" best and unfortunately, most painful thing would be to give the child up for adoption. Keep in mind that it is just my opinion, but I must agree that it is unfortunate for a 17 year old to have to raise a baby. She is still a kid and should stay one for the next 3 or 4 years. Now she can't.

    It appears that Mom and Dad are planning on helping them while they finish their education. Really nice to have parents that are willing to help.

    I like your last point a lot. You must not have any kids. They don't listen.

    Well, there's also the pro death gang, who would rather abort a baby when they are past their second trimester and the baby could survive outside the womb. For some of us, it's a baby. We think that way and vote that way. I try to see both sides. For me there is a grey area in the second trimester. I would vote to keep it, but again that's just me. Someone has to take the mother's side and someone has to take the baby's side.

    Roe v Wade only provides for a "choice" until the third trimester. After that it's just criminal. Call me morality police if you like, but there are really two sides to the coin here.

    I can see your point. If you have a daughter and she gets preggers, what will you say? You'll be torn. Your little girl that you have sought to protect all of her life did not listen to you and now she is in trouble. If she decides to keep the baby, her childhood is over. This whole thing is fucked.

    I have a daughter. She married. She became pregnant. I have a beautiful grandson (actually I have two, and two granddaughters). We all got together this weekend. I can't think of anything more warming, than family.

    I disagree that the whole thing is fu**ed. Some teens get pregnant when they are seventeen, unwed, decide to keep their child and eventually he grows up to run for President of the United States. I find that inspiring.
