While I'm amused to no end by this, some of the arguments are true... We don't laugh if an anti-drug politician's kid is found in the gutter od'ed on heroin.
(Well, I kind of do... But the general population doesn't)

However, it isn't Palin's statements which make this deliciously ironic, it's Bristol's herself. Those groups that paid her for her abstinence work should be asking for a refund, since she's destroyed any message they paid her to deliver.

She's like a poster child for how abstinence education doesn't work as effectively as it would combined with birth control education.

I agree on confused. Could not care less about the Palin family, but I am struck by the hate they attract.

Well Gene, Palin markets herself as a combination of GOP Barbie and Bible Spice. Less than lovable characters to those whom are not far right. Add to that her history of saying things like members of SCOTUS should be impeached and, well, you get the picture....

Don't fall into that trap Frank.

People can have "family values" and still have problems at home. I don't know why the media loves to jump on the Palin family. Well, actually I do. Because the media isn't merely biased. They're really most sincerely biased.

This is the problem with Sarah, she obviously didn't teach her kid the right thing, and she wants the rest of us to teach our kids the same way.
