Sarah Palin sat down with CBS correspondent Tracy Smith. She was asked about her daughter Bristol Palin, who made a living giving speeches about abstinence but is pregnant out of wedlock again. Cenk Uygur, host of the The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"Her mother emphatically nodded her head when CBS reporter Tracy Smith asked about that description.
"That can't be how you saw this playing out -- unmarried and pregnant again?" Smith asked.
"Heck, no!" Palin replied. "Being a single mom is, oh my goodness. My heart goes out to the single parents, but my enormous admiration for what theyre able to accomplish doing double duty. And I watch Bristol do double duty all the time with her little boy, Tripp.
The 51-year-old mother of five acknowledged her critics, but said the only one she needs to worry about is the man upstairs.
"Well, the cool thing about putting your faith in God," Palin said, "is he certainly is a God of second chances and third and fourth and fifth chances.*

Palin and Bristol are PRECISELY why "abstinence only" is pure bullshit.
My heart goes out to the single parents, but my enormous admiration for what theyre able to accomplish doing double duty. And I watch Bristol do double duty all the time with her little boy, Tripp.
Has Dan Quayle weighed in on Palin as he did with the imaginary Murphy Brown?
