While I do think if you're working as a communications director for a politician, you should be more careful about what you say, and that negative comments directed at the children of politicians should be off limits, there's also a hell of a lot of hypocrisy going on with regard to the outrage and demands she be fired from people who almost certainly never said word one when far far worse comments were made towards Sarah Palins daughters. If there's a standard to follow, people should actually follow it. All the time. Not just when the politics lines up properly.

A laudable standard.

I personally never understood that one. Why are the kids off-limits? They are certainly learning really fast what not to do by being in public light 24/7?

Or is it just a gentleman's agreement that can be broken as soon a blogger faces some serious jonesing.

In my defense, a good portion of the US population lives, by what they think is, a close interpretation of old testament.

Swing and a miss.

You mean the comments made towards a non President's adult daughters? I mean, I'm sure we all can agree that if Malia Obama got pregnant and her parents raised the baby, no one in the GOP would comment on that.

Six years ago you were pretty insistent that she wasn't an adult, and her actions were a direct result of her mother's failures to properly handle her child.

How classy do you think the Republican establishment would have thought this was? Or would they have just said, "Oh, those kids!" & laughed it off?

Obama now has teenage daughters & they're just classless compared to Dubya's!

(who both got busted for underage drinking or attempting to & who's mom ran a stop sign @ 17 & actually killed a dude)

I doubt it. I couldn't give a fuck if a politician's kid murdered children for fun, never mind had one at young age.

It was more in response to other people saying it wasn't Palin's fault that her "adult" kid decided to go out and get knocked up. That instead of being a choice made by her daughter it was instead really was a reflection on her failed parenting.

I think you even listed every President who had kids that didn't get knocked up as a teenager as evidence that Palin ****** up.

I like how the same people who are yelling "freedom of speech" (as if that protected you from being fired) are the same people upset about the STL Rams Mike Brown's "Don't shoot" gesture and wants them fined and fired.

-side note-

I also must remember a bizzaro past, because I could have sworn there was a lot of controversy over the comments made about Palin's children. If I'm not mistaken, I think the reason why anyone cared that her daughter got knocked up was because of her stance on sex education and teen pregnancy.

Again, doesn't sound like me. I probably made fun of her kids idiotic white trash names and I'm always good for a joke about a kid with Down's. Are you sure I didn't just make fun of the retarded one named Trailer Park or whatever it is?

Yes it does. I'll post a link when I get home if you really care. It was Aug. or Sept. 2008 if I remember right, cause I looked it up.

I only remember because I was the one talking to him at the time and made a mistake between age of consent and age of majority which he corrected me on in his usual manner. It was also the first time I remember dealing with Smash.

You're slicing this too thin. She made an *** out of herself, which is a perfectly fine thing to do. It's good when asses make an *** of themselves, so we can spot them easier. The asses who keep their mouths shut are much more difficult to identify.

We need some method of identification so we know who to ignore. Which is why I occasionally perform my community service by posting here.
