Does Sarah Palin believe her son with down syndrome should also "pull himself up by his bootstraps"?

Question

Since she went to work 3 days after he was born. YOUR ON YOUR OWN BOY I'M NOT GIVING YOU ANY HANDOUTS

Answer 1

she is the mayor of 7,000 people neck deep in a scandal - not ready for prime time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UojMnCgq...

Answer 2

Christians are just hypocrisy wrapped up in a flesh suit.

Answer 3

Kill a baby...(child didn't not have a choice)

Save a murderer... (made a choice)

Liberals are really backwards...

Answer 4

Probably so that she could pay to have her son with down syndrome put into the right schools and therapies by the time he turns 3. But according to you I guess you think children come right out of the v****a with a suit an tie and a resume. I don't know I could be wrong.

Answer 5

You are a cruel microsyphalic anal opening--

Answer 6

No it does not mean that, it means that Palin is a working american just like anyone else.

What I call good old fashioned conservative values is having the child even though she new of his problem before birth. A liberal would have had the child killed before it was able to experience life! A liberal would kill the baby because they dont believe in responsibilty and life. Liberals want to play god. Its personal responsibility not privledge. Your principles should come before your wants, privledges, and convience!

I believe you see the hit that Obama took today, and your scared, so you get on here and spew your liberal believes when you dont know anything about palin, but you are scared, because you know this helps McCain!

All you liberals want to do is complain and moan, and have everthing handed to you.

Answer 7

Gee he's 4 months old. And is well taken care of.

I doubt if she said any thing like you would say if it was your child.

I'm sure she is a good mother.

What have you done for kids today?

What have you done for your country today?

Answer 8

i think that baby was loved more than you would have the sense to know.or like obama choose to abort  it?

Answer 9

real nice.  bring it.. as s hat

Answer 10

She loved him enough not to abort him, like many liberals would have.

Answer 11

This is why Republicans are pro-life. They don't even care about their own children since they just hand them off to a nanny.

Answer 12

Going to work is a conservative value. Often people put children into daycare so they can do this....

Get a job and get off welfare already!!

Attacking a woman for working... I didn't know that was a liberal tactic... I guess desperate times call for desperate measures...

Answer 13

WTH are u talking about!

Answer 14

No, that would be a horrible assumption to make. Just because she has a downs syndrome child doesn't mean that she's got problems. She has also been handling the situation very well. Do your homework before you ask ignorant questions.

Answer 15

Sarah Palin went back to work 3 days after giving birth, just like she would have if Trig was not a Down Syndrome baby. Nothing wrong with that. Just a working Mom like many of us.

I gave birth to my 1st of 4 children in 1980. Sarah (ironically my daughter's name also), was born with Down Syndrome. I was 22 years old. All I ever wanted for her was to fit into society comfortably. You can accomplish that by not treating your child any differently than your other children. So in answer to the 'bootstrap' question? I say "yes". And until any of you are in the shoes of a parent with a special needs child...you will never know or understand how that feels.

I do not believe in aborting a pregnancy regardless of test results. They are, after all, just tests. Until that baby is born, the degree of the birth defect is not known...only what the defect is. I admire and commend Sarah Palin for her choice in this matter. I think she must be a warm and loving person to raise a family and have the working background that she does. I cannot say negative political comments because I did not even know anything about her before yesterday.

IMHO, this election has been tarnished from the get-go...she could turn out to be the real winner when you look at the alternative choices.

Answer 16

If you're implying that democrats that want government subsidized everything are "mentally challenged" then I agree with you.

No disrespect meant to legitimate disabilty sufferers.

Answer 17

That's really low!

Typical far left loony!

Answer 18

Anything sounds ridiculous when pressed to its greatest extreme.
