Illegal Mexicans are probably watching her kids, teaching them Spanish and Reconquista!!! |
|
|
in the media and H-wood, children are nothing more than accessories |
|
|
So what? You work part time and relatives watch the kids. There are people who work full time and manage the balance much more efficiently than when they stay home. You are wrong to judge Palin. What works for you is your business. What works for her is hers. You go ahead and vote for the empty suit who chided Palin's speech with his own BDS references. You'll get absolutely nothing for it. And I do not support McCain, either. Palin is who she is, period. That I like. But it doesn't change my perception that McCain is NOT a conservative. |
|
and her children will be fine.
Seems the big 'over-riding' issue for libs is THERE IS NO 'OVER-RIDING' issue they can sink their teeth into except to gnaw at her being a mom.
The case against Mrs. Palin is pretty thin folks, and one of the nicest things about her, aside from the fact that she is going to kick the arse of Joe Biden in those debates is...SHE IS NOT A LAWYER.....HOW COOL IS THAT?? |

I am one of those traditional socially conservative women who think conceptions should be planned in such a way that mothers raise their own children themselves (raising is a full time, hands on, daily activity) until at least age 6 and then should be available to their children after school until bedtime until the youngest is out of high school.
That being said, what I like about Palin is her approach to small government. Small constitutionally sound government is my PRIMARY factor in choosing a candidate to receive my vote.
My secondary issue is fiscal conservatism. I don't want the government spending taxpayer dollars on anything that is not necessary and constitutionally justified. Again, Palin appeals to me because she appears to have a strong fiscal conservative bent.
Social issues are not a voting matter for me beyond my belief that civil rights are endowed at conception. I think government should not be in the social engineering business at either end of the political spectrum. Social change comes through spiritual transformation-not something that can come from government.
Government follows social norms and attitudes. Social norms and attitudes do not follow government.
Palin's choice to put a career before her children makes me have no respect for her as a mother, but I do respect her as a candidate. Since I'm not planning to place my children in her custody, I am only evaluating her as a candidate.
For any career woman out there tempted to play the "We need to support each others choices as women and see both choices as valid" card: Don't be such a GIRL! Let Homeschool Mom give you the same advice she gives newbie homeschoolers crying that they are being criticized for their choice to homeschool: GET OVER IT! You make your choices and you have to plan to take what comes with it. You are not entitled to approval from anyone. |

Quinn had a son with some sort of birth defect--cardio/neurological, I'm not sure. She kept giving parties though, didn't she?
Judy Woodruff had a son with spina bifida and she kept on working. Didn't she care about him at all?
Katie Couric's husband was dying of colon cancer but that wasn't enough to keep her off the air. |
|
Cruella? Norah O'Donnell and the other MSM hacks, Left Wing wackos (elected Democrats) and our glitter getters of Hollyweird and such attack Governor Palin for one reason and only one reason:
They see her exciting the Republican base and others. Hell that could cause their Anointed One and the Hair Affair to lose. That would be Senators Obama and Biden to you Leftist.
We are talking about Liberals here: they can't be sure of the meaning of "is". Pitiful they are, just pitiful. |
|
I get so disgusted every time I hear a member of the MSM spout the line, "People are saying". The "people" they are referring to is themselves. But, lacking the character, honesty or integrity to put the question as coming from themselves and thus displaying their put open bias, they phrase the question as if "they" are representing the American people. The only people the MSM represents are themselves and the dnc.
MSM - immoral, unethical, hypocritical, lacking in honor, integrity and character. |
|
"Who vetted Obama?"
Hillary Clinton and her large, skilled, well-funded, and ferocious organization, for one. The Democratic Party, for another. |
|
|
All journalists need to be challenged on these issues. Any sign of hypocrisy or flip-flopping should be exploited. If they are promoted or newly hired, an investigation should be done comparing them to other possible candidates. We should note which more experienced journalists were passed over because some trait or history would weaken the station's brand. We should then petition the station to hire that more experienced choice. Politicians are ill-suited to challenge the media since they are assumed partisan. The public needs to express its outrage. Cancel magazine subscriptions, anything to show our distaste. |
|
Posted by the left-wing dingbats are disgusting. When did you clowns decide to embrace your twisted notion of traditional values?
What you would like us to to forget, with these malicious smears about Sarah's family, is the disturbing facts surrounding Barack Obama. His only national experience is that he is part of the worst congressional session in history. His own past associations include professed terrorists, convicted driminals and racists.
Barack Obama and Joe Biden do not represent change, they represent the same corrupt politics and the same big government ideology. |
|

Sarah Palin belongs to Feminists for Life, a group that provides support services to young women who become pregnant and do not have abortions. Bristol is typical of the young women they support. |
|
Give us a break, how many people in this country work 40 plus a week both parents? Come on and her kids are now teenagers, and get real no matter what you tell children they will have sex, we can talk all we want they will still have sex, anyone over 20 had sex when they were teenagers too, so all this talking head clowns suddenly shocked, get real, we have Lohan coming out and talking about this crap, we have all these teenage shows on TV, who the hell are these Liberals to talk about suitability when most of them create the enviroment of this behavior.
Obama and his liberal Socialists will do anything they can to derail this election, Obama is a empty suit Elmer Gantry who with his friends in the Liberal Media are attempting to turn the USA into the Socialistic States of America. The hardworking citizens of this country better wake up, the democrats are selling us out, and use Bush and the fear of fear as a catalysist for their brand of change, its not change of the good time, its Marxist propaganda. |

Animal Girl, politico, Floyd of Mayberry, et al...
TODD PALIN IS THE FATHER, fathers are GREAT PARENTS TOO. I know, I didn't have a mother and my father took care of us kids from the time we were little.
Your arguments are only valid if perhaps Governor Palin was a single mom, BUT SHE IS NOT A SINGLE MOM! She has a husband, you know, THE FATHER OF THE CHILDREN and last time I checked it is the responsiblity of BOTH PARENTS TO RAISE THE CHILDREN.
MCCAIN-PALIN 2008
!BRAVO! |

Hey Girls.. Norah, Campbell(?), Meridith, Katie, etc. Do you know how your children are??
I never bother watching these Lib-propagandists.. female, talking department store dummies, anyway.. I couldn't care less about them & their families.. but when they join the MSM santimonious, rumor-mongering, bashing of Sarah Palin and her family... I care.. Backoff Twits!! |
|
Riddle me this: Who is socially well-adjusted, appealing to and comfortable around heterosexual men, shaves their underarms and legs, isn't always wanting to kill their unborn babies and yours, and votes Democratic?
Answer: I don't know either, but if you see one, take a photo and I will give up my Sasquatch-hunting hobby and try to find them a Democratic mate. |
|
|
None of us are in a position to tell Norah O'Donnell how to balance a demanding career with raising her children. I assume that she and her husband are doing a fine job raising their children. But when she doesn't practice what she preaches, she deserves to get called on it. |
|
Well, speaking as a true feminist, I can tell you I LOVE GOVERNOR PALIN !! And both my sister and I will be voting for her.
The truth is that Norah O'Donnell is not a feminist and/or not a very liberated woman or she wouldn't be against Palin.
And all the other JELOUS SHREWS out flying their brooms sniffing other's TAILS while cackeling about Governor Palin are, well, pretty much LAME.
MY FATHER RAISED ME and I believe TODD PALIN IS HER HUSBAND AND THEY CAN SHARE THE CHILD REARING.
All you dumb chicks go back to your kitchens AND beauty parlors with Floyd of Mayberry, you sound ridiculous saying GOVERNOR PALIN'S place is in the home. Maybe YOUR place is, but obviously Governor Palin's is NOT. |
|
|
Unlike you, I have a real job along with a real life. You can meet yourself tomorrow. You really need to get outside and get some fresh air. LOL |
|
|
Given your venom on this thread, I wouldn't be surprised if you once had four children, but ate two of them at birth. Or perhaps given that they each likely have different fathers, they now live outside your shanty and therefore are no longer considered your children. Do me a favor and leave this site so you can feast upon your own vomit like a good animalgirl would. |
|
Just admit it, all you jealous National Socialist Kool-aide Drinkers.
You hate Sarah Palin because she manages to have a fulfilling family life and an incredible career without bailing on her Christian values or selling out her independence to the Government. She's not a client of the for-profit abortion industry, so you hate her. She isn't a welfare queen, so you hate her. She isn't a radical anti-American, so you hate her. She's not a serial divorcee or a homosexual parent, so you hate her.
The idea that a husband and wife can raise a decent-sized family, still enjoy career success, and overcome even the challenges of raising a child with special needs and confronting teenage pregnancy - it eats you up inside because it reminds you of how your political motivations are really just an extension of your own personal weakness and selfishness.
You need to see only a world of Big Brother, the ACLU, Big Media, and Planned Parenthood patting you on the head while all those who disagree with you are just neanderthals bitterly clinging to their Bibles and their guns.
That's what all of this really boils down to - Sarah Palin makes you self-righteous Neo-Communists look pathetic - and you can't stand it. |

I see I have a convert. A believer. Welcome to the center and out of the darkness.
If I recall, didn't you suggest that I'm an operative or something? Which I'm not.
I do have time a the moment, but it's running short. This may be my last post.
I invite you all to meet me here tomorrow starting in the am. I'll log in. Perhaps we can continue our dialogue. You are very close to letting go, I can feel it.
Welcome to the center. It the warmest place to be. |

So what’s new from the radical, liberal Democrats, including the major (soon to be former!) news media? |

143 in the Senate???

Welcome to the conversation. Now let me assure you that I am not deluded.
If you read my posts carefully, you'll see that I never compared Barry ot S. Palin. After all there is no comparison. Barry is running for POTUS. He has been elected to do so by 18M plus. S. Palin, unfortunately for her, has been chosen to run for VP by someone with poor judgment.
You can critic Barry forever, about his qualification. He put himself out there. But, at some point in this, you must respect his cache. If what you say is true, he's the nominee for POTUS, defeated the Clinton machine all without being qualified. woow! I say.
Let me be clear for you as I was for your fellow blogger USAconservatism: I champion Barry and put him up againt your best (according to you all that voted him in) John Wayne POW McCain. John is not presidential, regal or a stateman. He's a grumpy old man who's losing his bearing. His choice of S. Palin for VP bears that point affirmative.
Again, welcome to the debate. If I make you re-think your beliefs, and your foundation shakes please don't call me a Lefty, because I'm not. |

I imagine you have a lot of free time a lot of the time.... :) |

Jibantics is right about you. You seem to spend an inordinate amount of time pontificating here on Town Hall, for someone who supposedly works, loves her job and her career (but writes about "doing stuff," indicating clearly not much of a command over the language) and admittedly is a parent.
You are among the most liberal AND judgmental writers here and I am amazed that you would WANT to troll around here, where clearly few care about your liberal opinions. I am also amazed that you have the time. Supposedly you work, you run a household, you take care of children -- and then in your down time (?), you troll around Town Hall??? Hmmm, something seems not quite right about that.
What makes you think that you have the right to judge Sarah Palin or anyone else and how that person raises his or her children? To pontificate on how it SHOULD be done and what the RIGHT way to do it is. First of all, it's none of your business. Secondly, you are not necessarily right and the rest of the world wrong.
Have you ever heard of Moveon? Daily Kos? You might try one of those if you want to pontificate your way into acceptance. |
|
You are obviously deluded if you think the O is more experienced than ANY of the candidates on the two major tickets. He has done nothing - except run for President.
He is so full of himself that he couldn't even complete HALF of his term, before he started running for President. Sarah Palin did not decide to run for President or Vice-President, she was asked to do so. I think it is so funny that the O supporters feel they must compare their candidate to our VP candidate. She is going to absolutely destroy Joe (I am a liar in everything I say) Biden in the debates.
AnimalGirl - you and your friends that jumped all over the 'Sarah Palin faked her pregnancy to hide her daughters pregnancy' made me reconsider abortion. The problem is that there is no way to tell if that unborn child will turn out like you and your friends. Thanks for helping put her pregnancy on the front page all over the U.S. (sarcasm intended). You and your kind bring zero value to any debates or conversations about politics. |

Don't waste anymore time conversing with looney Politico. He's just bored on his "sites" so he comes over to ours to see if he can participate in intelligent conversation. By his blogs (lack of typos) he probably paid attention in english class at school. Unfortunately, that's where his level of education ends. He's just another product of liberal mentality hoping that their socialist candidate will take over America and he won't have to bother ever looking for a job again, because "hey, guess what, the government's gonna take care of me now. My hand is out, please fill it." |
|
Michael, you've cut right to the heart of it.
Where are these people's brains?! P.T. Barnum was right.
Maybe Obama as Prez would be good for this country, at least if the MSM, Leftist weirdos, and optimistic youth would see that Obama is not who they think he is when he:
1. Doesn't change anything, only makes it worse,
2. Shows how corrupt he really is,
3. Sells out the very people who put him in.
The only problem with my premise here is that I don't believe we'd survive under an Obama administration. If his treatment of Kurtz is any example, he'd take over as dictator for life within a year.
McCain as President is not the best choice; it's the only pro-democracy choice. |
|
I write slowly this time, and not so much so that you can perhaps understand me. If you read my last post, I did answer your question:
This is not about Blk man vs. Wht Woman. This is about qualification to be POTUS Barry vs. John. And the left has not put Barry in the position to run against Mr. Wayne. There "LEFT" isn't that strong or that many. Get it. Other Americans chose Barry to be the nominee as Americans will decide that he's the POTUS we want to have.
Your rants remind me of the student who sits for an exam then makes excuses about his grade and down plays it before the grades are posted, so at to lower expecations and transfer blame to someone or something else.
Stand-up and accept defeat like a man or woman.
Your candidate lost, because he has poor judgment. That's what the S.Palin VP choice is telling voters: "Hi I'm John Wayne McCain and I have poor judgment. I make decision irrationally and impulsively. Elect me your POTUS and I am sure to do and react the same way."
Sorry that you had to hear this from me. I know it would've been easier on your senses hearing it from a loved one.

You really should learn to argue. You're too emotional, which weakens your argument.
Just because I disagree with you doesn't make me liberal, not that there's anything wrong with being liberal. If you must know, I'm more of a moderate.
Like it or not, this race is not about race or gender. I've never said that is was. This race is all about qualification, talent and ability. And it just so happens that the candidate best suited for the job at this point in history is a good ole boy named Barry H. Obama. Does that strike you as odd? I should hope not.
Your candidate blew it by picking S. Palin. Not because she's a woman. Rather, he's shown us all poor judgment in his pick because there are more qualified REPUB WOMEN in the field from which to choose. McCain is pandering to the base.
This presidential cycle started out dealing with certain issues: nat'l security, and the economy. Once good ole boy Barry went abroad and was adorred by foreign leaders and fawned over by everyone else. Once he gave that speech in front of 85,0000 strong, tough guy MCScared panicked and threw a "Hail Mary."
Please, please, please don't try to paint me as a race baiter, or sexist because you disagree with me and you cannot argue intelligently. In fact, I bet that what I'm saying is really striking you to the bone and making you question your own beliefs. It's ok to admit it. I've made you question youself didn't I?
It happens, you're not the only one. There are others on this site refreshed that I'm here giving them something to think about. |

So typical of a leftie (you are a leftie) all that spewing and you still did not address my comment - YOUNG INEXPERIENCED BLACK MAN vs. a YOUNG INEXPERIENCED WHITE WOMAN. The left has started this argument so it will be up to the left to stop it. And we all are giving you lefties more credit than your candidate deserves. Our #2 is more experienced than your #1!! And you guys just can't stand it that our VP pick has stolen the spotlight from your Presidential pick. With all the keystrokes you are wasting defending your unqualified candidate, why don't you try to highlight some of his accomplishments, outside of academia and community organizing. After 18 months, still can't find any - wonder why? Could it be that there aren't any??? |
|
It's a shame that you had to inject race and sexism into this dialogue. Do you even know what those two words mean? Really?
My comments are neither racist nor sexist. I am merely sharing my observations of this presidential cycle.
To be very clear: you are mistaken if you think that the "Left" is putting ole Barry into the White House. Sorry to inform you, but there aren't that many "Left" to do so. Everyone knows, except maybe you, that it's the "middle" that elects the POTUS, not the left or the right.
And I must tell you that you should learn to read, if you think that I'm a member of the "LEFT." There's nothing in my blogs that suggest I agree with the "LEFT." My support of Barry does not bare that either. Indeed, many Repubs support him as well. I challenge you to please, please pay attention. He won 18M plus votes: Not all of those votes came from the left or black people. The class size is too small. Ole Barry is winning the hearts and minds of AMERICANS, even Rednecks--I'm sure you saw them last week on the news at the DNC convention.
So, let's recap: America wants the most qualified to be POTUS--whether that person is black, grean, yellow, white, male or female. You cannot fathom or accept that a black man is actually "qualified" for any job, much less for the POTUS. He's even more qualified than the top of your ticket McCain. How do I come to this conclusion. America says so. This race is over. You know it, I know and everyone else knows it.
America has spoken, not me on this blog. I have one vote. America wants ole Barry, like it or not. You all here may feed each others pathology forever, but America gets what she wants. Always have, always will. And this presidential cycle, Barry has shown himself to be the perfect exotic dish that America's craving.
Sorry your team lost. |

Who is taking care of your kids? Seems like you spend most of your day spewing garbage on TH everyday. Go hang out on sites where people care what you think. |

How typical of the liberal mind spew choice from one face but spew no-choice out of the other face. It's obvious that your perception of Republicans as somehow monolithic and anti-woman is just plain wrong. Otherwise the Republican base wouldn't be as jazzed by this choice as we are. What liberals have never understood and probably never will understand it's not the color of a person's skin nor is it their gender it's their abilities. So while you're trying to come up with a formula which screws everybody over equally Republicans just pick the best person for the job. At this moment for the job of VP that person is Sarah Palin. And at this moment for the job of President that happens to be John McCain. And in 4 years Sarah Palin will most likely be running for the Presidency and you know what Republicans will vote for her not because she's female but because she's the best person for the job.
What amazes me is the bigotry and hatred you liberals are spewing. Rather than congratulating her and running a campaign based on your ideal you'd rather attack a 17 year old girl. Nice going. |
|
There is no more prejudiced party than Dems when it comes to women. Check out your history books--it's public knowledge. Roosevelt, Kennedy, Clinton. Same old story.
What astounds me is the presumption of so many who seem to think they can tell a woman how to order her life. That has to be the height of arrogance.
Is no one worried Obama's girls will need a dad around more than the presidency will permit, especially considering how he'd have to learn to govern?
Maybe if he'll urge release of The Annenberg Papers we'll get an idea how he did running a multi-million buck program that had absolutely no impact on those struggling schools.
Live long enough I guess you'll experience everything.

I've said this before on other blogs and I'll repeat it -- the left believes that a young INEXPERIENCED BLACK MAN is a better leader than a YOUNG INEXPERIENCED WHITE WOMAN? You are both racist and sexist. All the while comparing the Dems #1 to the Repubs #2. You all on the left just keep this up - the hole just keeps getting deeper..... |
|
|
We must keep in mind the left and the MSM have no morals, ethics, or standards. So holding them accountable is like trying to stop time. |
|
|
Michelle Obama dropped to part-time when her children were born so she could be there for them. |
|
|
I'm glad you called out Ron on the issue of Down's children...You mirrored my thoughts on reading his ignorant post. I would like to say I am looking forward to Sarah Palin's speech tonight. She's a pistol! |
|
I have two small children and I work. I am ambitious and I love my job. But I scaled back so I could take care of my kids. Grandma or dad watch them one or twp days a week so I can go to meetings and that kind of stuff, and the rest of my work I do after the kids go to bed at night or during naps. Once they go to school, I will work more. Career advancement needs to wait.
I am not superior to all working moms--the moms who HAVE to. I had a friend who went back to work when her son was only 4 weeks (still longer than Palin took) because they were in jeopardy of losing their house. She had to balance things, and she did what was best for her kids, which was keep a roof over their head.
Palin has CHOSEN to put her career ahead of her children. |
|
I'm not here to change anyone's opinion nor am I trying to muster votes for my candidate. See, the election is over and McCain lost. Note, I said McCain lost, not that Obama won.
Obama's run has been, AMAZING. A man with a dark skinned complexion with a middle name the same as a middle eastern dictator will be the next president of the USA. He has many talents, to be sure. But you all dropped the ball when you nominated McCain. And he proved it when he, in turn, apppointed S. Palin. You underestimated ole Barry and the the people's hunger for change.
This is America. Places like Harvard, Yale, Stanford--even the Naval Academy--exist for a reason. They represent the best of the best. While John is a member of that group, along the way, at 72 years old, he's lost his bearings. The people of this country will not stand for S. Palin and her marginal background. They can't. So, while America may have questions about ole' Barry, he fits enough of the profile for them to either cast their vote for him or concede this election and wait until 2012.
Why am I here on TH's blog. To say thanks to all of you for supporting ole' Barry H. Obama in becoming POTUS 44. |
|
|
Back when Barack Obama began his bid for the presidency, I personally felt that the democrats should support another candidate solely on the fact that the Obama's have 2 small children. As it is both parents took jobs that required much time away from home. My husband and I chose to live a more modest life and take on jobs that had less responsibility and enabled us to be home more. We felt there was time for a much larger career later on and so there was. The Obama's made a different choice and only they will know in the future if they did the right thing. I am NOT passing judgment. The same goes for Sarah. She must have energy galore and more power to her. The fact that her teenage daughter is now pregnant has nothing to do with either staying home or working outside the home. I have known both cases to end up with the same scenario. The fact is that society is desperately trying to control the hormones of young people in the sexual prime of their lives. We are never going to change that scenario, but try to manage it as best as possible. I knew many girls that had babies in high school and the fist year after. I was 19 when I had a child and for me it all worked out fine. I simply loved being a young mother and I had plenty of time for my son because at that point in life I just lived a very simple life. I hope Sarah has the inner strength to wade through all the filth and get her message out. Good luck tonight. |

aspire to be teachers,scientists, doctors, lawyers, CEO's of corporations, business owners, etc. Man, can you imagine a woman wanting to be any of those things AND having children??? How could she possibly be a good mother? It's a good thing girls/women know their places in this world and realize their place in life is to do nothing but bear children and stay at home like a good little "sweetie."
Do any of you people who are claiming Gov Palin can't be a mother and VP at the same time realize exactly how idiotic you sound? |
|
just got OWNED.
Maybe this will teach her to keep her trap shut about such asinine accusations. |
|
You almost want to respect someone who clearly disagrees with almost everything on this site, yet crosses over to try to change people's minds by insulting them.
Almost.
Yes, please tell us how insulted we should be! Please tell us how to vote! Please enlighten us with your carefully selected "facts", your amateurish rants, and your dripping venom. And then be surprised when again your hatred doesn't translate into a victory in November. But keep blaming everyone else. That seems to work for you.
Typical dem. |
|
I get the feeling you believe you are superior to all the women who choose to work and have children. Get over yourself and listen to Dr. Laura all you want. Did you consider that Dr. Laura "worked" while raising her son? MMm. I'm betting you didn't. Dr. Laura is right on many an occasion, but not everything. Harumph!!
Go Palin! |
|
is qualified for the position she is seeking.
Any areas that required more study, advice, concentration, etc. - will get her focused attention plus lots of expert assistance in analyzing every important matter point by point.
She has strength, common sense, ability to fight the establishment and willingness to do so, etc.
McCain/Palin - what a team!!!!
Why couldn't Norah answer her own question - who would know better! Cheap shot! |
|
Why do Dem/lib chicks get to go to work if they have babies (the ones who survived the womb, of course)?
Ah, the Left, champions of women. |
|
Who's watching Norah's kids? Her Nanny is, and probably at MSNBC's expense. Of course! Norah's a well-paid anchor an on a major cable news network. Her kids are taken care just fine.
You all want to believe that Palin will be taken care of her own kids in DC, NOT!. Absolutely not. The demands of VP are too much for Palin to adequately perform her VP duties then come home dress a moose, cook dinner, and help with homework. Like every other CAREER woman, she's has the means to hire help and I certain that she'll take advantage of her status, if McCain/Palin pervailed Nov. 4.
As to McCain/Palin succeeding Nov. 4, well to quote our beloved former president Clinton, can any say "fairy-tale??? |
|
I'm reading this blog and it's going in circles.
Consider this; These low-life, scheming leftist agitators come to TH to be nuisances. They bring nothing of value to the forum, so why argue with them? We know who we support and that's it!
They do love it when they know their crap is being read. Why else would they be here if not for the attention they receive for their incendiary comments? That's what it's all about for them.
Sure, they're a pain-in-the-behind, but what would happen if they were completely ignored?
If they can't exact any reaction, they'll move on. The more we waste gray matter in responding to them, the more gratification they get.
Let them comment, consider the source,ignore, and they'll wither on the vine. Give it a try,it'll give them ulcers. |
|
|
You leftist nutbags are so predictable. If McCain had nominated Romney the blogs would be on fire with how many houses do they both own?? If it would have been Huckabee it would be that McCain was pandoring to the evangelical vote. If it was Fred Thompson, you'd be crying "two old guys in the WH!" You all would feel so much better if you would just admit that people left of center in this country are just miserable unhappy, angry, directionless, irrational LOSERS that need the federal government to guide every facet of their meaningless lives. Sorry, to all my fellow conservatives posters, but I just had to vent a little.... |

Having state employees babysit on state time is hardly unusual enough to be an abuse. After all, that's all that public school teachers do all day. If you find that unconvincing, consider all the government-paid-for daycare providers. Or do you think the legislature should spend its time and the people's money enacting a special law for an executive office daycare provider? |
|
"Why is it that everyone is choosing to ignore the fact that Todd Palin is a full-time stay-at-home dad?"
I don't believe that he is. He took a leave of absence from the oil company when his wife was first elected governor, but has since gone back to work.
The thing I don't understand is where they live. Wasilla is about a 45 minute drive from Anchorage. Bristol recently transferred from the Wasilla high school to Anchorage. Juneau, the capitol and where the governor works, is about 600 miles as the float-plane flies from Anchorage (much longer by car; you have to go through Canada and maybe Russia). So where's this home that the dad stays at? |
|
Because he's not. He's an employee of BP who works on the North Slope. He said he would become a stay-at-home dad IF Palin wins the race.
Currently, he does not stay at home. Which is why Palin brought her baby to work and had state employees babysit for her on state time.
One of her many abuses of power. |

It seems to me that some people have a real animus against children, especially children with brothers and sisters. There seems to be an anger against women with more than one or two children, a feeling underlying the weak social reasoning. To wit: These mothers should be "punished" by being grounded; they shouldn't be free to compete with women who have "sacrificed" -perhaps even sacrificed their "fetuses"- to pursue careers. |

Why is it that everyone is choosing to ignore the fact that Todd Palin is a full-time stay-at-home dad? |

I for one am so sick of the blatant hypocrisy of the ultra-liberal MSM in this country. They are sick and depraved individuals who are more than willing and ready to trash anyone that they deem "conservative". Sarah Palin has not even been in the national political scene for a week yet, and they are throwing everything but the kitchen sink at her....Oh wait, if you call lies and bogus rumors the kitchen sink, then I have to take that back, they have thrown the kitchen sink at her. All this really does though is anger normal thinking, hard working Americans, and there is a huge backlash looming on the horizon. |

Norah O'Donnell isn't running for VP under the oldest President ever who has already have FOUR cancer scares. |

Couldn't have said it better...... :) |

As you present yourself an expert in the care of Down Syndrome children, please list the specific special needs which exceed a non-Down child of similar age and physical development? Please be specific as it relates to Trig Palin as you are obviously privy to this very personal information.
I want specifics you dolt. I want to know how taking care of that 4 month old child is different from taking care of Nora's one month 'normal' child. C'mon moron, tell all of us. |

The hypochrasy of the left is astounding.
Dennis - you're disgusting.
Heidi - you're an idiot.
Have a nice day. |

Her kids aren't reading Billy Ayer's new Childrens book, "The Donkey and the Weatherman". |

It goes without saying that the issue of who is watching anyone's kids is no one's business. It matters not at all whether the family involved is the Palins, the Courics, the O'Donnells or anyone else. It is NOT the right of the people to know, or the media to inquire, about who is watching your children, their children or somebody else's children. It's obvious that there are simply WAY TOO MANY PEOPLE with WAY TOO MUCH time on their hands. Clearly, more people need far more work to do.
I think the point has been well made over and over: The Dems are really getting hysterical about this. I hope they keep it up. They show their true colors with every breath and every blog and every bleat. And they are very muddied colors indeed. Some might call them downright ugly colors. |

Does anyone else see how twisted this is that now the McCain camp is showing off the pregnant teen? What in the world is happening to this country?
I just hope that after this fiasco Repubs will shush with all their "morals and values" talk. |

YOU CRAZY LIBERALS,ARE YOU REALY CONCERNED ABOUT SARAH AND HER KIDS.THEY WILL DO FINE. |
|
|
who would want to watch her kids? If they are anything like her, no thanks regardless what they pay. |

Dr Laura came out against a mom with a teeny tiny baby putting so much more energy into her job than her children!!
Finally, a lone conservative willing to keep her principles.
SOMEONE values motherhood, and doesn't think mothers are just disposable luxuries... |

If anyone who is quite obviously hypocritical about this issue as is the case here, the proper response is to turn it back on them immediately. "Well, Nora, as a working mother doesn't this disgust you since you are in the same boat she is? Unless you agree with the question being asked in which case, when will you be resigning so you can go home to be with your children?" |
|
|
kids mentioned have serious healthcare needs such as a child with Downes syndrome? Notice the giveaway quote "neglecting her child" Child here being singular. |
|
|
The drive by media are disgusting, scum sucking pigs and they should be ashamed of their despicable attempt to destroy a women who embodies the American Dream. |
|
of Fox News has 8 kids...she seems to be juggling having a high profile news career and being a mother just fine.
Mitt Romney has 5 children.
John McCain has 7.
Yet they all seem to do just fine having a career and being PARENTS. (Fathers are NOT exempt from parenting.) And no one asks any of them how they do it either.
Let's move on from her ability to parent her children and focus on her ability to lead the nation! |

Not taking sides here, but I think that you should listen to Bob, Joe. If anyone is an expert on looking stupid... |

"Here's a voice willing to admit it"
Ah, I see you've changed your cut-and-paste text since I pointed out that he isn't a "liberal blogger" as you claimed. Did you go back and change the dozens of places you pasted it with the original text? That seems to be pretty much every single comment thread on TH these days.
Don't you worry about how stupid you look, posting identical entries in every thread with no regard to topic? |

Didn't Campbel Brown just give birth to a child as well? Why did she come back to work so soon instead of staying home with her baby. |
|
|
C'mon, trolls...who is watching the children? Meredith Vierra? Katie Couric? That View chick? And why the hell aren't you leftists asking about where the fathers are while you're at it? Hypocrits, day and night! |

Here's a voice willing to admit it:
We surrendered something a whole lot more valuable than our vote. We surrendered our principles. We surrendered our core values.
We surrendered all hope. We surrendered our shared dreams that our daughters would inherit a better world, a world of promise, equality, justice, fairness and honor.
We had dreamed of a world where our 17 years old daughters wouldn't be striped naked and raped on the front page of the New York Times, above the fold.
We dreamed of a world where a candidate, man or woman, could run for the highest office in the land and not be "swiftboated" with sexual lies and slander so vicious, so cruel, so gross and destructive that they actually wither our very soul.
I actually believed we were better than that. I actually believed "swiftboating" was the sole property of Republicans. I actually believed we wanted to debate the issues. I actually believed we wanted the real change so eloquently promised by Senator Barack Obama. I actually believed we wanted a better world for our sons and our daughters.
So I thought the extremely bizarre story, so obvious a blatant lie, that somehow appeared in The Daily Kos, claiming Governor Sarah Palin had somehow faked her own pregnancy to cover up for her wayward teenage daughter would be laughed off and quickly vanish form the Kos pages like the trash it was. It was a joke, A sad, sick joke.
But instead of the aborted fetus it should have been, it was born full grown into the waiting arms of liberal bloggers and journalists, who quickly passed out cigars and congratulated themselves as proud mamas and papas. All this in spite of the fact that absolutely everyone knew the story was an absolute lie.
The only thing we aborted was the truth.
