Another 8 years of if your not with us your against us? Isnt that what the Dems are doing in congress now? Locking out the Repobs from any say in whats going on with the stimulas or the omnibus bills! Thats what the Dems call bi-partisan politics, you either do things how we want or stay out?

Yes I believe you might have something there, but they say pay back is a ... oh you know. Republicans and democrats do this all the time don't they. They simply refuse to work with eachother and then there are those that want to pretend they are above it all really crack me up, on both sides. For just today I want to pretend niether side exists. Just for sanity reasons.

Here is why this is funny.

Republican's have been howling about poor people reproducing and being a burden on society for many many years. So, who ever said in an earlier post that we wouldn't make these comments if she was a mother from the ghetto you are wrong. Republicans have been making those comments in politically acceptable but none the less easily understood code terms and not so code terms for some time.

They've wagged their judgmental fingers and refused to fund sex education programs. They talked sternly about how the public shouldn't have to support immoral behavior...yet when it happen in their own back yard it suddenly becomes a private matter?

Then worse it is used and spined and almost celebrated when republican delegates are interviewed on the convention floor talking about the kids up-right moral plans to marry? Real life they say...mistakes happen but they are doing the right thing.

The campaign made it not a private matter when they trotted that poor girl and Levi out on the stage. Shame on them...but once that door was opened by the campaign it was no longer a private matter.

Gov. Palin's belief in the just say no abstinence only approach is flawed. It doesn't work! Not even in her own house.

She made a big point of saying at the convention that they were getting married. Then republicans chirped about an unwed teen pregnancy being a private matter. Private my a$$ she used that kid as a political tool as much or more than anyone in the media or anyone who pointed out the abstinence only hypocrisy of her position.

She and the party used that kid. Except she wasn't just using her child and her off spring she was using Levi too. All to salvage some pro family, pro life political points. Shame on Sarah....that's why she is still in this conversation.

In the whole Palin "family" situation, what I found humorous was the claim by this same ilk that Bristol Palin was really the mother of Trig rumors. Idle musing/rhetorical question here, in the event they reconcile and get married will the likes of madisonman start another topic stating it?

payback is a ***** at our expense

My post was in response to someone saying Gov Palin ran on family values and they were bashing her for that so I asked if they would say that to single mothers in the ghetto. And no I am not wrong I work in the ghetto every day and see families with strong values and their kids still get pregnant out of wedlock. Please dont take my post out of context.

i still stand by my posts

You realize this is a repeat thread dont you!!

lol i do now....but this one is in full swing

Isn't it always? Was with Bush too, it's always been that way and probably always will be until we the people change our attitudes toward one another, then the government might actually reflect the will of most people in this country, but not until then. But that too is unlikely because of the very things we allow to divide us. Religion, race, class, power...... and on and on.

tell em TN meatloaf !!!!!!

seriously i do agree

Good one, I'll add that to my favorites. Toebreaker Tennessee meatloaf.. LMAO

u guys are horrible to take such joy out of anothers misfortune.

I didnt read none of the posts..I hope Im not the first one to say this....

but i wish I coulda peed in whoevers cheerios it is that thinks that this is even slightly amusing

I never saw anyone that thought it was funny as in haha, more ironic than anything. Infact I never even saw as misfortune, just something that happens, period. Most of the posts in here are just nonsense goofing off if you will notice.

Yuck pissing in some one's cheerios? Good think I don't eat cereal.. lol

in my opinion....posting this topic is somewhat gloating..

and u r right boo...its a baby...and that is never ever misfortunate.

psst meatloaf....look at the first page....and on

and i have said gloating over this isn't right IMO. and cat....stay away from my cereal lol

this is excellent and very true

also a nice comment

Well I think when it comes right down to it if we are all honest, it's not about Palin, or the daughter or her boyfriend or the baby. But I don't really want to get the whole issue of politics and choices going again. I'm in too good a mood...

hey its life...let a good mood last as long as possible
