Why did Palin and McCain subject Bristol to this? |
|
---
Why Palin was willing to accept McCain's offer I will never understand. In doing so she opened her family up to losing their privacy. That is what happens to political figures. She had to know her daughter's pregnancy was now going to be National news and enter the public debate arena. Sad for her daughter and shame on Palin and McCain for putting the daughter through this needlessly.
"Family Values" my ass.

4. I bet you the husband is privately pissed off at his wife |
|
did you see the youtube video of him from '96 where he was having serious doubts about her becoming Mayor and what that meant.
I can only imagine what he thinks about this whole shitstorm.

16. he seems like he is kind of against her going into public office, but she had gotten her way |
|
it looks like she became a pet project for the Repukes
but what works in Alaska just won't cut it Nationally. Too much scrutiny.

Blind ambition at it's worst. But no doubt, she is like W and thinks God chose her.

as Ed Schultz just said on Larry King, Sarah's degree is in journalism, she KNEW this would happen..unless she's ignorant, that is.I do feel very sorry for Bristol, this is going to be very hard for her and her future family.

9. couldn't agree more, to pretend she had no idea this would happen would mean |
|
she is stupider than I first believed or just perhaps selfish beyond belief and not a very caring mother to begin with

14. Don't know about Palin, but McCain might not have known. |
|
His people have been sketchy about the timeline, perhaps because they're afraid their inadequate "vetting" will be exposed.
