Why are liberals taking cheap pot-shots at Palin because her family is sticking to their pro-life principles?

Question

A pregnant 17-year-old daughter is always a tough situation -- but the Palin family are handling it the CONSERVATIVE way. They are rolling up their sleeves and facing it.

The LIBERAL way of dealing with this would have been to a) keep it quiet, and b) go have the unborn child murdered by an abortionist.

The family is sticking to their pro-life principles -- even knowing full well that they would face despicable, cheap-shot criticism from the Looney Left.

Your thoughts?

Answer 1

I think you're missing the point. And you're incredibly wrong and ignorant if you really think that democratic families would handle this situation as you described.

The point is that republicans and conservatives have been preaching abstinence and 'just say no' because teenagers shouldn't be having s*x. Just saying no didn't work for the drug war, and it's not working here. And democrats - as a rule - are NOT criticizing Palin relative to her daughter. The daughter is off limits. It's the hypocritical stance the republican party takes, and you've taken, that's wrong and ill-conceived. No pun intended.

Answer 2

Because they're also sticking to their white trash principles and we don't want any flea-bitten trailer bums in our federal government. Not all pro-life people (like me) become parents in high school, LOL!

Answer 3

I hope the Dems keep up all this hate speech! All it does is push single mothers, teen mothers and mothers of teen mothers to the right! Thanks for the help!

Answer 4

Because this is one of the things liberals do. I'm so very weary of mud-slinging by the democrats. They'll attack anything about a republican politician if they think it'll help them.

Answer 5

Why on earth would you assume that any criticism of her is from "liberals"?

The internet allows sociopaths, wackos and religious bigots of both, or neither, parties to attack others while secluding themselves in the dark corner of anonymity.

I asked the below question earlier today.

Can someone inform the trolls that all candidate's children are off limits?

Answer 6

Thank you Sarah Palin for allowing us all to realize that we are making the right choice in choosing Barack/Biden...At least you know that the choices you and your family have made will be protected by O/B in the White House...

Answer 7

Have you been living under a rock? Everyone takes cheap shot on politicians and celebrities. Everyone is fair game and that's the truth. Like you've never taken cheap shots against Obama and other democrats.

Puhhhlleaassee..

Answer 8

your reasoning that all democrats get abortions

and Palin should be praised for her 17 y/o daughter being pregnant

is so ridiculous  

Answer 9

very cheap shots-----some are so ignorant they are still trying to say Sarah's baby was actually her daughters baby---which is it?  LOL

The young lady will marry the father of the baby.-----vulgar smears will not work.

Answer 10

Yep, you got it, Jenny Kim! They don't believe in God, which is why they believe in Darwinism, Out of Africa, and the Big Bang. Nice theories, but there is nothing to back them up, and plenty of evidence to the contrary.

So, of course, when people are anti-God and come up with these humanistic theories, they can not handle real life situations except by taking cheap shots and devaluing life.

Answer 11

because it mocks the diatribe that clinton invented of it..."takes a village"  it surely and obviously doesnt.  it takes parents that can handle reality and government that leaves them alone to do so.

Answer 12

Yes, her family is so PRO-LIFE.. U dont even have to get married just make b******s whenever u feel like.. exactly the type of role models we want for our future generation.. lets just abandon all the formalities of getting married.. God Who??.. lets back a president who encourages DUI and VP who is pro-life with b******s popping out in her own house as proof.. Go RepublicanS!!!! AKA b******s

Answer 13

These Palins have integrity and truthfulness.........they live what they teach........and they are honest.  They could have aborted both babies, and kept it quiet.  It takes integrity and God-given morals to do what they have done, and are doing.  God bless them, and God bless America !!

Answer 14

I could care less what Liberals think. Liberals are for their messiah Obama not matter what happens

Answer 15

If SARAH Palin had been worth a d**n as a mother this wouldn't have happened. SARAH Palin was governor when this happened. Her daughter was at risk as a target for terrorist activities. She had no idea where he daughter was or what she was doing. What a PARENT! Family Values my a**!

Answer 16

What ever happened to the "keep your legs closed until marriage principle"?  Or..how about the make him use a condom principle...but that's not one of the conservative values..not like the first?  What the heck is the conservative way?  Was she being conservative when she was having intercourse and not married...and on top of that where was her mother or father?  I know you guys are upset that this has come to light.  But, its very hypocritical to say that she is "following conservative values" when it wasn't "conservative values" that got her pregnant at 17 without a husband and still in high school.  You can say what you want but that's the facts..can't change them - too bad!  

Answer 17

Because they are idiots. they will over look the fact that their Candidate is a Racist White g*y America Hater, with ties to Terrorism But God forbid a teenager gets pregnant, and all h**l breaks loose. What kind of people are they, not any one I want to know that is for d**n sure. So let them wag their tongues, and kick up the dust. Because what goes around, comes around, and good will always prevail over evil. Democrat for McCain/Palin 2008.

Answer 18

I don't agree that liberals are taking cheap pot-shots at Palin any more than conservatives do when they use phases like "murder an unborn child" or call all liberals pro-abortion when clearly no one is really PRO-abortion but rather pro-choice to do what is best for each individual family in peril. When conservatives like Palin and other clones of Pat Buchanan want to take away reproductive rights they have to expect people are going to shoot back when they are constantly called "murders" and the Evangelicals ignore the fact  that not all religions agree on the question of when life begins.

Answer 19

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?...

like lying is any better.

Answer 20

If the shoe was on the other foot, liberals would react the same way as the republicans.  However, I think republicans would be attacking the liberals.

I support McCain/Palin and may God bless their new grandchild.  

Answer 21

When a poor woman in the inner city has a baby it's a sin and she's a commie creep

she doesn't hide her baby or pretend it's someone elses

but you guys have a different set of rules

its the lying and hypocrisy that get to the rest of us. That's the water republicans swim in, so they don't even know it's there.

Answer 22

It's politics.  Soon enough, there will be stories that McCain took drugs or that Obama murdered someone in Africa.  This really should not surprise you at all, which makes this truth all the more sad.  I doubt the founding fathers of America envisioned this type of nation, where people can just waste time yelling about pregnancies and race and gender and not even pay attention to the fact that the world is crumbling all around us...

Answer 23

"have the unborn child murdered by an abortionist"....

Clearly you have no intention of taking any pro-choice opinion seriously, so there is no point of even arguing.

Answer 24

the family isn't sucking the baby down a sink, like Barry said he'd do if his daughter got pregnant.

I'm sick of the non-parents out there that keep saying it's Palin's fault that her daughter is pregnant. Every parent knows that you can't control every action of your kids! They are not responsible!!!

Answer 25

The Dem's just keep heaping up the piles of hate speech, don't they!? The dirty little secret is they hate strong women.

The more I hear about Gov. Sarah Palin, the more I like her. I think she's handling the PG daughter very maturally. At least they celebrate life, and don't kill it. Besides, they plan to get married. They just put the cart before the horse. I'm a genealogist and have found families have done that for centuries. (I call them Oppsies). ♥ ∞

Answer 26

As B Obama has said:

In Monroe, Mich., Democrat Obama condemned rumors involving the children of candidates and echoed the McCain campaign argument. He said, "I think people's families are off limits, and people's children are especially off limits."

"Our people were not involved in any way in this, and they will not be," he said. "And if I ever thought that there was somebody in my campaign that was involved in something like that, they'd be fired."

I would like to thank all of the libs for assisting the independent voters on their decision to vote for McCain.

Answer 27

I think you have two group of people doing this.

One are people who support Obama but aren't controlling their tempers and are venting without realizing that it is alienating people who are still undecided.

The other probably smaller group are the ones supporting McCain who know this helps him.

This plays both ways though.  There is the rumor that Obama was born in Kenya and is not a U.S. citizen.  And that is one of the nicer ones.

Answer 28

Jenny you make more sense than a lot of these hard core Killer Liberals on here! I think that to many cheap shots have been made toward Sarah Palin and John Mccain! I do not have a problem letting any one know that I am a Republican and conservative and that I will vote for Mccain/Palin in Nov. but I would like to thank Obama for telling his Party to lay off private Family matters! Most if not all of the despicable criticism about Palin comes from those who don't believe that a Woman is capable of leading our nation if the door was opened,and that is so far from the truth! The other comes from people who have no principles or morals,who think nothing of taking the life of a precious child still in the mothers Womb!  

Answer 29

No they are taking shots at Palin because she is an extremist AND because the Neocons are so self righteous.

I wonder if Neocons regret attacking Mrs. Obama and her daughters over absolute NONSENSE?

Answer 30

Sarah is an adoptive mother   this is incredible news ????

A teen making the heroic choice to  save her baby  and  a mom and dad raising it as part of the family...  like wow... a woman making a hard choice.

so where's the problem?

Answer 31

I think that it is great to support your daughter in a time of crisis first of all.

I also think this is a great example of "practice what you preach".

The liberals are mad because the daughter is keeping it this child.  That is the bottom line.  I am sure at least one of the liberals had s*x besides with their marital partner...*looks to the Clinton family, *looks to Obama's Mama
