Afraid?
Wow, she accepted the VP with her family in this current state.
She put her CAREER above her family.
Wonder what she'll do to the country.

You folks do realize that these candidates are people......just like us......with the same life problems that we have! They are no better and no worse. I am guessing given her Governorship that her husband is taking care of the family duties for the most part.

Yep, and they take time off from their jobs to deal with their "life problems" not preach.

'Tis merely part of being human. People have people. It's not funny, it's not sad. And It should be a happy thing.
I'll throw no stones at the human condition.
Of all the reasons that I could think of, this is not even close to why I will not vote Rebublican ever again.

There's kool-aide?

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

Yes I think a lot of Obamas staff are afraid of him losing. Like I said yesterday; the mud slinging will be heavy.

And on her accepting the nod as VP candidate; Its not like she can put time on hold. Life throws people curve balls. I feel she will overcome these things.

Like Larry said; How many parents have total contol over their kids??? Alaska is 14:1 in male to female ratio. She has most likely had a bunch of young males chasing her....


Just keep drinking the Kool-Aid

One of the biggest meth states, and has one of the highest alcoholism rates.

Lets not forget an extremely high divorce rate, suicide rate, and general effing boredom rate.

(Yeah I threw that last one in there...)

I'd bet half those glamorous crews on The Deadliest Catch were meth heads. Not like we need to go far to find more like them.

Can we atleast lay off the kid here for the most part and get back to the fact that mommy is one of the biggest proponents of "abstinence only" education and AGAINST all other forms of birth control?

I agree. They should lay off the kids (on both sides). The kids aren't running for office. So why did the DEMS bring it up ? Are they afraid of "Barracuda" ?

Seems this story was broken by Palin herself.
Not the dems.

The Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin has announced that her 17-year-old daughter is pregnant

And bloggers will be bloggers, they don't need the party itself to feed it info. Plenty of people on the right HATE Palin.

I believe she would consider it serving her country. Most families don't have the ability to quit their jobs to take care of family matters. I would think that she is the bread winner in the family.

I doubt they will choose abortion as a quick way of dealing with irresponsability.

And I thought you're pro-drug. Oh ya, just pot

That's just a little needling. Jim Jones got over 900 people to commit suicide in Jonestown approx 30 years ago. His followers believed him to be a prophet or messiah.

I see some of Obama's followers thinking like Jones "flock".

That would rely on there being no separation of church and state which is something the right preaches.

It amazes me the number of union/ex-union people who are supporting a vehemently anti-union party.

Like I said before I am not registered Dem or Rep. I don't believe in falling in line and following a particular party. But Obama is out of his mind with some of the things he wants. I don't want socialism and would like to keep my guns. Obama strikes out in 2 areas so he doesn't get my vote.

Mac, I think you're a nice guy, you love fishing, I love fishing, we've had a great time BS'ing away, but for christ sake do some fact checking.

http://www.ontheissues.org/2008_Politico.htm

Q: You said recently, "I have no intention of taking away folks' guns." But you support the D.C. handgun ban, and you've said that it's constitutional. How do you reconcile those two positions?

A: Because I think we have two conflicting traditions in this country. I think it's important for us to recognize that we've got a tradition of handgun ownership and gun ownership generally. And a lot of law-abiding citizens use it for hunting, for sportsmanship, and for protecting their families. We also have a violence on the streets that is the result of illegal handgun usage. And so I think there is nothing wrong with a community saying we are going to take those illegal handguns off the streets. And cracking down on the various loopholes that exist in terms of background checks for children, the mentally ill. We can have reasonable, thoughtful gun control measure that I think respect the Second Amendment and people's traditions.

Now will you PLEASE stop preaching on the whole gun thing? Its a BS fabrication by the Michigan Militia wackjobs and the conservatives to scare you. Its politics.

HE is not going to take away your guns. Your TOWN will. And given where you live I really REALLY doubt that will happen.

And socialism? YOU LIVE IN THE PEOPLE'S COMMONWEALTH! HEALTH CARE IS MANDATORY! SOCIALIST PROGRAM!
