Why are Liberals so stuck on Palin's daughter and why the double standard?

Question

Honestly, the slander, accusations, and comments about her daughter are unreal. What does her teenage daughter have to do with her qualifications to become Vice President? What does her daughter being pregnant have to do with anything?

Some of the comments I have read are amazing to me. "Should we encourage our 16yo daughter to get pregnant now" "the Republicans encourage teenage pregnancy" "must be bad parenting" and on and on.

However, bring up anything about Obama, and that's just attacking him. His mother was 18 when he was born, which means she could have been 17 when she got pregnant. How is this any different? Please explain this to me. Am I expected to believe that no Democrat ever sneaked around when they were younger, engaging in sexual activities? Am I to believe that no Democrats teenage kids ever get pregnant? Am I to believe that teenage pregnancy is limited only to Republicans and Pro-Life people and should be considered "karma"

Get over yourselves, stop with the double standard. If you are going to attack one party and are unable to take it when your party gets attacked, then you need to find a new hobby. Please think about things before you spew them from your mouth.

Answer 1

The double standard is obvious:

Palin preaches family values, but with 5 children to look after , and a working husband, she has chosen to put her own ambitions above the needs of her family. It's not easy looking after 5 children  - Palin is stretching herself in every direction. Something's going to go wrong.

The other point is that Palin has taken up the offer for Vice President , knowing that her young daughter was expecting - and knowiing that the teen will be put under the media spotlight. So again, despite preaching family values - Palin has put her own needs above those of her young daughter.

She could have deferred for a few years - if only for her daughters sake.

Finally, many, many Republicans have worked hard, tirelessly, to promote the Republican cause and values  -  and Palin has tarnished that image within a couple of days.

(I bet I know what Bush thinks about this).

When you have kids - you have to make choices. Many women choose not to have children so they can dedicate their time to their career.

Palin is trying to have everything  -  and it's not always possible without things going wrong
