As with most respectable people, I am completely disgusted with the left and the media's invasion into Sarah Palin's daughters life. They drove the news of her pregnancy by claiming she was the mother of her brother, and the Palins all lied about it for political reasons. When it finally comes out that she is pregnant, and believe or not, her mother is not claiming the child (I hope you detect the sarcasm), the left immediately tries using it to bash Sarah Palin's position on abstenance first education.
This argument is so weak. The argument seems to claim that if you or anyone in your family falls below your moral standards, that you should no longer have that moral standard. Can you imagine what Bill Clinton's standards would be like with his brother Rodger Clinton? Oh wait, bad example.
I guess if Sarah Palin's daughter became a drug addict, then Sarah Palin should just disregard her stance against substance abuse. She should just explain to her daughter that she shouldn't use drugs, but if she's going to, here are some clean needles and don't share them.
What should we do as a country? Should we lower our standards further every time someone that proclaims a standard falls short of it? How long would it be before there were no standards left?
