The sad truth about Sarah Palin is she could actually say something about impeaching members of The Supreme Court and mean it.

There are some inaccuracies in that article. Besides Bristle, Sarah Palin herself is described as being 58 years old. I'm too lazy to look it up, but I don't believe that is correct. She just had a baby seven years ago. And I'm pretty sure she was under 45 at the time. But the best part really is what she said. She wants to dump the entire Supreme Court, regardless of how they voted on marriage equality, and start over fresh. Does she not understand that if that actually came to pass, it's President Obama who would be nominating the replacement judges? Does she think she's going to get a more conservative court? Maybe someone should help her do the math. She's such an embarrassment. OK, that is seriously funny! Impeach the entire Supreme Court? Sure. We'll get right on that - said the American public to no one. Eta - I didn't get that it was a joke. So glad if it was.

so, basically, that story says she gave a speech in her home studio but it wasn't clear whether it was picked up by any broadcast networks, or not... and she 'left a note on her front lawn' for reporters.
what the heck??
I didn't think she was still relevant, anymore...
eta: it makes me feel better to see that it's not the 'real' New York Times website... whew! but strange and scary to think there are fake news websites out there posting 'sorta-news' to see if people bite, or not. I never really realized that, before.

She wants to talk about family values and traditional marriage? She with illegitimate grandchild #2 on the way? Maybe she should worry about herself. Not a Palin lover, but Many of the peas here have spoken about their children who are living lives that they do not approve . There are babies out of wedlock, there are children involved in drugs, there are children living with men their parents don't approve of. do we question their ( peas)morals or their right to comment on morality? I do agree that it seems ludicrous the Bistle would be speaking on morality and abstinence etc. but this does not immediately exclude the right of a parent to comment on morality. That said, I just wish Palen would stop. I really don't care about anything she has to say. And were the parents, of those who have children involved in drug addiction, to stand up on a national stage (and their child too) and point their fingers at everyone else and call them immoral for being on drugs, while they knowingly are doing the SAME thing, I would comment on their morality at a minimum, but also their hypocrisy. The parent can point her finger at her own child and comment on their morality (which actually I don't even believe that, since she is an adult), but that's where that should stop.

I never have something positive to say about Sarah Palin, but here goes a first. My only issue with her on this topic is that she speaks out, or used to speak out, on how schools should teach abstinence only. Three of her grandchildren (are there others?) were conceived out of wedlock as she was talking about her way of sex education should be best for the entire country. Ummm no.
However.... This is about Bristol for me and not about her mother. She makes her living from preaching to young girls about abstinence and then gets pregnant not once, but twice while she isn't married. She blogs about how horrible and immoral everyone else is and then gets angry when people have an opinion on her hypocrisy. A few days ago, this pregnancy was disappointing to her. Now it is a planned pregnancy that people should not have expressed an opinion on. Sweetheart, if you chase the public attention, don't be surprised and angry when you get it.

Additionally it seems as if this isn't just an out of wedlock pregnancy but got pregnant by someone other than her then fiance, otherwise why call off the wedding a month before it wouldn't have been the first 8 month baby. So this isn't just abstinence immoral but borderline adultery immoral. Yeah, I think when you have committed to someone and are planning your wedding that having sex with someone else is immoral.

I have no love for the Palins. But short of some kind of evidence or an admission from the parties involved, I don't think you can make that assumption. They could have decided to call off the wedding, and then she discovered she was pregnant. Or she could have learned he was cheating or maybe he was abusive or something, and she decided to break it off regardless of the pregnancy. It's not right to spread that kind of rumor with nothing but speculation to back it up.

It's not right to spread that kind of rumor with nothing but speculation to back it up. Fair enough. It is odd that Meyer is not acknowledging the pregnancy at all. I would have expected some level of PTSD considering why was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor, but that always manifests differently in different people. Rumor mill (who knows how reliable that is) says he had a previous marriage she wasn't aware of and that broke off the wedding plans, seems odd that was a deal breaker considering her past but people often hold others to a higher standard. Guess she will get another book out of it and a few TV appearances out of it.

Additionally I'm not out with the intent of changing the minds of the masses and attempting ton use my power and influence to impact legislation surrounding my personal beliefs. Your point is not really relevant and you are comparing apples to oranges.

might seem odd to you but it isn't to Christians.

You are just so weird and off point. Truly. I never even know what to say to you. I am glad you are always on the opposite spectrum of belief from me, because I wouldn't want you to "defend" my posts.

So "Christians" are ok with illegitimate babies and live in but not live in lovers, but not previous marriages? Yeah, that makes sense.
