It is interesting to hear people who have had children while in High School. Usually when asked about why they didn't use some for of birth control and the result is essentially "it won't happen to me." (The same thinking applies to their driving habits, too). It is a non sequitur to connect the efficacy of birth control and whether or not it is taught in public schools. I don't think we have a situation of politicians picking on the children of candidates. We have surrogates. BTW, the McCain comment seems to be an unsourced, unsubstantiated quote. From the Salon article: "Though no tape of McCain's quip has yet emerged, this is what he reportedly said:" As far as the values of Obama are concerned, even if he turns out to be above board on his threats (which are unconvincing to me), we do still have his abortion and living children positions; his treatment of fellow Democrats in Chicago; his treatment of his friends and mentors; and his duplicity regarding his friends and mentors that he has not thrown under the bus yet. Forgive me if I don't buy that he has "more values" than McCain or Palin. Do you honestly think that kids have children out of wedlock because they don’t know about birth control?

“”Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly? Because her father is Janet Reno.”

Fortunately, Obama has made it clear that anyone on his staff who picks on Bristol will be fired. Some people have more values.

It was a mistake by dignifying her sewage with traffic. But I also wrote the news director of WRTV asking that they edit this as they would any other opinion piece they would put on the air. They certainly wouldn't let porn codes to be used for the simple purpose of driving traffic. I understand the left/Democrats wanting to do the research and digging on Palin. They should have already done it, but they are inept that way. I can even understand trying to use Bristol's pregnancy as a knock on abstinence programs. I don't understand labeling a sitting governor and future VP nominee with porn codes. Jenn should not only be removed from the WRTV blog, but she should be unable to get a job with any reputable organization. Of course she will continue on simply because she is provocative. Of course, she is not anywhere close to the worst offender on the left. But the general electorate will eventually see who lives in the gutter.

In his very own adopted home city, 20-somethings that are grandparents are not uncommon. Friend that was a CTA bus driver had a woman on one of his routes that served a southside housing project. This woman was a 25 year old grandmother. The One has a lot of room to talk. In his very own adopted home city, 20-somethings that are grandparents are not uncommon.

And nobody seems to remember what Heinlein wrote about frontier societies, young women and young men who grow up in them, and the high rate of young frontier women standing up at the altar to be married with cheerfully-ignored baby bumps. Yeah, sure, it's the 21st century, not the 19th, and birth control works a lot better these days. But who really cares? I'm a lot more impressed that she's keeping the baby and marrying the father than I am upset that she's pregnant. Let's see what happens if one of The One's daughters ever gets pregnant out of wedlock. Why do I doubt the outcome would be similar to Bristol's? And Sarah Palin's husband was arrested for DUI twenty years ago? Hell, that just qualifies him for Ted Kennedy's Senate seat. These radical lefties are sad, sad people.
