The party of "Family Values" sure had a field day a few months ago,
when 17 year old Jamie Lynn Spears got pregnant. It was absolutely
blamed on the parents doing a very poor job. They got called all sorts
of nasty names. Jamie Lynn Spears is keeping her baby, too.
Now all of a sudden, the parents of Bristol the slut are being praised
for standing by their tramp, and being such wonderful parents. Can't
have it both ways, folks. You already said that 17 year olds having
babies out of wedlock was a sign of moral decay. Not something to
applaud. Most of the advice from the right was that the Spears should
stay out of the lime light, guard their daughters privacy, and tend to
being better parents. Where is that advice for the Palins? What's
different?
And then there was Dan Quayles famous speech casitgating the fictional
character "Murphy Brown" for being pregnant out of wedlock. If he had
ever realized that Mickey and Minnie were "shacking up" there would
have been hell to pay.
There's nothing impressive about pumping out babies one right after
another, as in the case of Sarah Palin, or starting too early, as in the
case of Bristol Palin or Jamie Lynn Spears.
I wonder whether the next eldest Palin daughter will ask her girlfriends
about contraceptives or just decide it is "cool" to get pregnant.
