[QUOTE="Dankill:807776"]Eskimos can move [QUOTE="Murph:807651"][QUOTE="Conservationist:807639"][QUOTE="pam:807565"]I was saying it was hilarious because her mother wants all forms of birth control banned and touts her perfect family moral family values bullshit like a fucking badge.[/QUOTE] So if your kid screws up, it was because you were a hypocrite? [/QUOTE] Really, it doesn't matter much to me, but if you're about to tote policies that enforce a "Christian" sense of lifestyle, having your unwed teenage daughter be pregnant is not exactly the best PR. In a liberal sense it could be an application for 'incredible' family strength and devotion to 'progressive' parenting, however, in Palin's case it's a blemish. She's not being hypocritical because her daughter made a choice outside of her supposed rearing, but rather her daughter made a choice that does not coincide with her beliefs. Most of the time that wouldn't matter, unless the person promulgating such beliefs is allowing them to consciously affect one of the largest political arenas in the world. Palin should come under criticism here not because of her daughter's pregnancy, but because that pregnancy invalidates her platform, ie strong 'moral' education SHOULD lead to 'better' sexual, hence pre-parental choice. There's no need to be linear in our thinking here: it's not Palin's deal her daughter is pregnant, her daughter fucked the guy. It is a reminder, however, that people make choices and to be so doctrinal about such decisions is novelty. Shit happens, why not be liberal in such a sense and make things easier, not harder.[/QUOTE] You're partly right. The real thing to determine if she really blew it would be what she did once she got knocked up. If Palin tried to sweep it under the rug and let her daughter get an abortion, THEN she would be a hypocrite all day long, going against everything she holds up as her personal beliefs. But because the daughter is having the kid AND marrying the father, you're seeing the religious groups praising it because they consider that the right thing to do on both counts. I honestly don't know how much this is gonna hurt McCain/Palin, if at all. I mean, Chaney has a gay daughter who not long ago had a baby of her own with her partner and that didn't stop him keeping his job. [/QUOTE]
