Tsk. Rapture Ready has turned on Bristol Palin since the shotgun marriage didn't materialize.
Thread: "Teen abstinance (sic) unrealistic say's (sic) Bristol Palin"


"His Bride" comments: I wish that Bristol would recognize her mother's position and keep her feelings away from the press. What has happened to her and her family doesn't need to be exposed any further. I pray that any rebellious attitude would be quieted as she learns the responsiblities of motherhood.

====

A helpful reader replies: Well, of coarse, she's going to say it's "unrealistic." The truth is, she made a decision on her own and she tells herself that saying no to sex was just too hard for her...I mean, she really wanted to have sex...you can't just say no, right?

Maybe it's also "unrealistic" for spouses to remain faithful to eachother. I know people who have told me that...it was just too hard, b/c...they really really wanted to cheat.

It's only unrealistic for animals to abstane from sex...we are above animals, we are above our instincts.

2. I wish I was as perfect as this writer. I wonder if she can also be above her
instincts to eat and sleep.

9. Well, she's obviously above the base instinct to shit
because she's obviously full of it.

3. According to the Old Testament
Edited on Fri Feb-20-09 01:35 PM by atreides1
There is only one way "that any rebellious attitude would be quieted", it's called stoning!


Also, were not above animals, most animals kill for basic survival, we humans do it for fun or for money!

4. She's like MANY young girls.. she thinks the baby will hold "her guy"
Had her Mom not been the governor, and then the vpwannabee, she might have make a different choice.. Young Levi got swept up in it all...I'm not so sure he'll be there for the long haul now..

I still think Bristol has a "Mommie Dearest" in her future...one where she spills the beans about the "mono-adventure", and a lot of other wacky Mom stories..

5. So what if she wanted to have sex
I just don't see why wanting to have sex is a bad thing.

I also don't see why saying "yes" to sex is a bad thing.

The bad thing, was the failure to use birth control. Unless she really wanted to have a baby.

But sex? Shouldn't be a sin, as far as I'm concerned.

10. Imagine this generation of home-schooled teaching spelling to their
own home-schooled children. It boggles the mind.

*********
The best part of the RR post is this.

"Sara Palin is still having to deal with over 1 million dollars being donated in her name to Planned Parenthood.

14. You know what's so, so sad...
here in VA, parent's who don't have a HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA (!!!!) can get a waiver here based on religous beliefs to home school their kids.

:crazy: :banghead:

And these posts are the living breathing proof of the futures these kids can look forward to.....

11. I thought her and Levi were supposed to get married shortly after
the birth of the baby. If im not mistaken, when Palin first became VP, the issue was raised about when they were gonna get married. They responded soon after the baby was born. Fast forward to the Greta interview, now they're gettin' married "sometime in the future". Am I mistaken?

17. That line of argument infers that sex is inherently vile.
Sex is fun. Sex is enjoyable. Sex is dirty, wet, rough, kinky, crazy. Sex is good.

18. I went over there and read a few of the posts
and it was painful. The misspellings were bad, but I'm not a world-class speller, so I can forgive those. The poor grammer was somewhat jarring, but again, I've been known to split an infinitive or two in my time, so I'm in no position to point fingers. Certainly the attitude of some of the posts was disagreeable - Judgemental - one poster stating "we don' have Palin values in our family" (misspelling in original) and another stating that Gov. Palin, because one of her children had gotten pregnant outside of marriage and then not married the boy, was no longer fit to be in government. There are many reasons why Sarah Palin is not fit to be in government, let alone a viable candidate for president, but to my mind that is not one of them. But what bothered me the most was one poster who kept apologizing for her poor communications skills - she wrote just fine as far as I could see - and begging people not to be upset with her because their communications skills were far superior to hers. It brought back bad memories of a misspent year or two when I was in college and was a part of the Catholic charismatic movement. All the leaders were male and really worked on keeping women "in their places". I remember watching women having to beg to do something as trivial as reading a Bible verse, because it might be interpreted as them teaching men. Luckily I got out of it by going 800 miles away to a good university. There were one or two people in the group I was active in who never spoke to me again because in going off to get a college degree I had disobeyed God because during one prayer meeting "the spirit of prophecy" came upon one or two people who then went around the room "prophesying" over people. The prophecy I was given was that I was to be a light to my parents and friends - which to the people in question meant I was supposed to stay home and help my parents. Yeah, right - what they didn't know is that my mother would have killed me if I hadn't gone to university and gotten a degree. Come to think of it, so would my dad. Stay home? Not a chance in my house buddy.

20. One lie after another...apparently even how she broke the news to Palin
Edited on Sat Feb-21-09 09:41 PM by rainbow4321
In the GVS interview we hear "Levi, Bristol, and a friend sat on the couch, Bristol crying, asking her mother what is the worst thing she could think of happening"...GVS went on to praise Bristol for using that "worst thing" scenario, gee, that was so SMART.

OK.

Flash back to October 2008. Sherri Johnston gives her side of the story to a UK paper..gives a long interview, complete with pics from their family album, current pics of Levi, etc.
And how did the "break the news to Sarah" happen????

At the very least, part of the interview should have been "soooo, Levi's mom had a different version of that night...why is that?"


http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/news/article47917.ece

And when a distraught Bristol waved the pregnancy test stick in her face, shouting ‘It’s true, mom, I AM having a baby’, anti-abortionist Palin’s hysterics just got worse. Because she thought it was all a JOKE.


The US Republican hopeful’s bizarre reaction is revealed today by Sherry Johnston, the mother of Bristol’s 18-year-old fiancé Levi.

“Sarah was at home when Levi and Bristol burst in with the pregnancy stick,” says Sherry, a close pal of John McCain’s running mate.

“But Sarah started laughing—and when Levi and Bristol waved the evidence at her she was was giggling so hysterically she couldn’t stop.

21. You know,
I'm here trying to picture my step-mother bursting out with laughter if I came home at 17 announcing that I was pregnant. That would not have happened. The nicest thing she would have done was throw me out of the house. This would have been after she would been screaming about how stupid I am or how I was disgracing her.
