Obama's Mama was only 17 and UNMARRIED when he was conceived.?

Question

Its so funny how people seem to want to make a big deal out of VP candidate Palin's daughter, when in fact Barrack Obama's mother was only 17 and unmarried when he was conceived. It seems that people want to use the facts when it benefits them. Unfortunately for everyone who makes a big deal out of Palin, are only showing their own ignorance towards their own candidate.

Answer 1

On the bright side, there's FINALLY something I can give the guy credit for, bringing this fact up himself, and expressing his opinion that families should be off limits with regards to this election.

Answer 2

And just what does that have to do with Obama? Or are you attaching something his mother did to him in order to put lipstick on the Republican pig.

Answer 3

It not about the fact that she is pregnant, it about ideology that Plain stands for. No s*x education in our schools and waiting to married before have one has s*x! When she ran for Governor, supported this ideology which is ok if it works! if it did not work in her own house, then how can she then support it for the rest of America! I only hope the best for this young girl and her baby!

Answer 4

Haha! Nice one dude. Seriously. That really shows off Libs, eh? Hahahah! Anyways, You could argue,"Obama's mother isn't running as Vp is she?" But my reply to that is, Bristol isn't running as Vp either, is she?

So yeah. Typical liberals, eh?

Don't worry, I share your frustration. You just have to rise above the hypocrisy and believe in what you want to believe.

:D

Answer 5

There is a maturity difference in being 17 and enrolled in a university (and on your own) and 17 and still living at home and enrolled in high school.

Not to mention that the Republicans are the ones always claiming to have moral superiority.  If their members can't take care of their own problems, why claim it?

Answer 6

Obama's momma was not in the VP slot to be the President.And since that was nearly 50 years ago and Birth Control was mostly no-existant without a Doctors approval(which they never gave) it is completely different.Its not only her views of women bodies we are concerned with,its std's venereal and syphilis disease and hiv that is the problem.Now I challenge  ANY MAN to SAY a woman should have to either contact or die from s*x because they WERE NOT ALLOWED PROTECTION! Its not my fault you can not see the big picture.What ever she does in her family is her business,but she made it America's business when she accepted the VP nomination.And she does not SPEAK for the majority of women.Frankly I feel sorry for her daughter,you preach on choice for yourself but that poor girl has NONE.She can only have the baby,curtail any plans or dreams she made of had for her life to raise a child that because she was DENIED protection as in BIRTH CONTROL all she can do now is be a baby machine for 40 years,no life at all.How can you deem her life non important?? But her mother did,I also notice the 17 year old is the one wagging around HER MOTHERS baby.The mother didn't.So yes,not to be too callous but it is never a good idea to push on other people what you don't want to do yourself.I do feel sorry for her daughter now being forced into a marriage that the guy doesn't even want kids.Mrs.Palin does not speak for America.

Answer 7

They have no humanity, only when it comes to one of their own....Obama's mother did the best she could, considering her dead beat husband and father to Obama.  I have never thought any less of the man because of his parents.

Answer 8

Yes, but her mom wasn't running for VP of the country on a platform of CONSERVATIVE VALUES.  

Who is the hypocrite?

Can you really not see the difference...are you really that dense?

Answer 9

NOw why are you going that way?

Obama is on Palin's side?

Answer 10

So?

He's about to become the 44th president.  His mama would be proud.

next...

Answer 11

Obama's mama isn't running for vp is she?

Answer 12

DID YOU KNOW.....?

1. Her mother was not running for VP of the United States?

2. Her mother was not trailer trash?

Answer 13

Libs are the biggest hypocrites EVER.

Answer 14

That's fine with me!! But Obama's mom didn't run for office, now did she?

Answer 15

When did Obama's mother run around the country telling people we need abstinence only instead of education

Answer 16

Libral politics is making me SICK! I cannot believe they would stoop to the level of making fun of a pregnant girl. *Barfs on Obama*

Answer 17

Yea, and she was pregnant with a black baby. If you add up all the teen black and mexicans out there it is probably tripple the amount of white girls. Give the girl a break. You still have not changed my mind this Georgia Christian Girl is still with McCain. McCain Palin 08!

Answer 18

Obama himself said that families should be off limits. But do your really think the gop would give Obama a break if his daughter was pregnant out of wedlock?

Don't think so. What the media does is under no ones control. Get over it.

by the way, this news speaks to palins hypocrisy and mccains poor judgement.

he could have picked Olympia Snow.  lol

Answer 19

Is Obama's grandmother running for one of highest public offices on an pro-abstinence only education stance then or today?  

Answer 20

LOL

thank you!!

Answer 21

All you libs are trying to spin this guy's point which makes your answers a MOOT point.

And Palin wouldn't be a hypocrite unless she was preaching PRO LIFE and then had her daughter have an abortion; that would be hypocrisy.

Just don't forget, what's good for one has to be good for all; not just the small, select few.

McCain/Palin '08

Answer 22

Obama hasn't been raising a stink. The media has. And I don't see how this makes Palin a hypocrite! I don't need the government shoving birth control at my kids (which was Palin's stance) and I don't want my tax dollars being spent on that kind of c**p. She never said teenagers aren't having s*x?! She's not kicking her daughter out of the house for crying out loud. THAT would be hypocritical. People have all kinds of problems in their lives. It's how they handle those problems that tells you what kid of person they are. She is supporting her daughter so that boh she and her baby have a shot at a decent life.

You people are all a little to on edge. Teenagers are having babies all over the country. This isn't really news.

Answer 23

Yes, I see your point but you didn't ask a question. Yes, it wasn't right for Palin's daughter to get pregnant. It's not right or a good example. But then again who cares? At least she's responsible and going to marry the father. Obama is very successful so don't beat on him. BOth are great people.

Answer 24

His mother and grandmother did not go around telling everyone that they should teach abstention to kids, and not teach s*x education or safe s*x, and she did not try to take the right to choice away from women across the country based on her personal beliefs, starting to see the difference. Sarah Palin found out what it means to be in a glass house after throwing stones. Unfortunately at the cost of her daughters privacy. If her mom was not so far right no one would care.

Answer 25

It' not about the daughter being knocked up but her mother preaching abstinence and family values. That's being a hypocrite. If this is true, so what? Source, links or you're just making s**z up?  Did Obama's mama say she was for abstinence and preaching family values?  h**l no. Is Obama's mama running for VP? No. McCain kicked his first wife to the curb because she was fat and crippled and married a young pretty thang, Cindy.  Let's talk about judgement and family values regarding McCain.  He only gave his first wife $300 for child support and you know McCain afford more than that.  >><<

Answer 26

You haven't been paying attn......The difference is that Palin is anti-abortion,swears by the abstinence method & is against all forms of CONTRACEPTION !

Yet her teenage daughter gets PREGGERS at the worst possible time.......LOL !

Oh yeah,did i mention she's viewed as a hypocrite !

Meanwhile Barack's mother never ran for public office .

Answer 27

It's actually not funny at all when you understand the reason people are coming down on Palin is not because she HAS a child that is pregnant out of wedlock... It's that Palin is a staunch advocate of 'absitinatce only' teaching. Clearly it didn't work in her own home in this case, how can she be expected to implement this nationally? Obama makes no such claims of support for 'absitaince only' so What you pointed out doesn't really mean anything now does it?

Answer 28

well, i could be wrong here, but i'm pretty sure that obama's mama is not running for VP as a republican.

we're not blaming the fetus. we're not even blaming bristol. we're blaming the VP candidate who can't even teach her own daughter about birth control, and who is another hypocritical, judgmental, moralistic right winger who can preach but can't practice.

Answer 29

Obama's mother is not running for office. We are not guilty of the errors of our parents. However, Palin is running for office. A parent is responsible for their children, particularly when the party line is to teach abstinence and to claim to be the party of values etc.
