What kind of mother exposes her 17-year old pregnant daughter to public scrutiny?

Question

Morganie: Her mother knew her daughter was pregnant when she accepted. Her mother had a choice to make - she didn't choose what was best for her daughter. Get a clue!

Answer 1

Thank the media not her Mother.

Is Obama a bad father for letting his children attend a racist church?

Answer 2

the kind that cares more about power than family - which is probably typical among politicians  

Answer 3

What kind of husband exposes his wife to public derision with his sexual exploits with those he is not married to.  All of us seem to have feet of clay.  

Answer 4

you are really worried about Palin arent you?

the daughter is not running for office, so she should not be dragged into it, but the dems are pure evil and will do anything to win.

Answer 5

Is this question autobiographical?

Answer 6

Not a very good one.

Answer 7

Her daughter exposed herself to public scrutiny when she got pregnant.

BUT.....  It appears that this woman, who is against abortion has taught her daughter about responsiblity for her actions.  She could have taken her daughter to another state and had an abortion under another name and said, "this never happened and I don't want to ever hear about any of it."  That however, would go against her beliefs.

Kind of nice to have a candidate stay true to her beliefs and have courage in her convictions even if it is a little uncomfortable and not politically correct.

Answer 8

A crappy selfish mother thats what kind.

Answer 9

I guess all the mothers who work on you news channels that have made this national news all day.

Answer 10

What kind of voyeur would revel in attacking a family with a Down's Syndrome child by suggesting that the child was not the mother's but actually the child of one of her children?  What kind of population would prefer to investigate the personal life of children over the issues of an election?

Sounds to me like there are plenty of questions to go around.  I doubt sincerely that Sarah Palin opened this item up for public consumption without discussing it with Bristol first.  Unfortunately the ability of the vile rumor mongers is beyond the pale.  Certainly there have been instances of such speculation before but it is clear that this speculation has been tolerated in public environments longer than was prudent in the attempt to cause a strong willed working mother to fail.

Just what we should expect from those who support a woman's right to choose and a woman's place in the workplace.

Answer 11

LOL. 'BARRACUDA"

Answer 12

One who has never been handed anything, but has worked for everything. What member of the public would scrutinize a pregnant 17 year old.

Answer 13

I'm sure she probably talked to her daughter before accepting.  The mother and daughter are the victim.  I don't think the mother should be scrutinized.  She was trying to help her country out by agreeing to run as McCain's partner.

I'm a democrat and think she's being scrutinized way too much over her daughter.  Scrutiny of Palin should surround her and her actions, not her daughter.

Answer 14

What kind of media/society makes this such an issue when it happens everyday across America? Don't see this much mentioned when 70% of African Americans do the same. When Bill Cosby called them on it HE was vilified. Don't think it's a good thing but

the haters have gone overboard.

Answer 15

So you're blaming her for the way the liberal media decended on her daughter.

Blame the victim, huh?

Answer 16

A true Machiavellian opportunist riding on the coattails of a ripe 72 year old man; with the possibility of dying before completing his first term as President. Family second, political aspirations first!

Answer 17

What kind of mother??? One who puts ambition waaaaaay ahead of her family.

That would be ok, but please don't then throw Family Values at us!

Sarah was a JOURNALIST for heaven sake. If she didn't know that this would be an issue, and her sweet little girl would be catapulted on to the world stage, she is dumber than George.
