Because a lot of people here don’t want anyone paying attention to that. Because they are fully GOP and the more sXit they can stir up on issues like this, the more anger will be expelled on issues like this. bu the time it comes to the real issues, their hero skates because people are to frustrated and burn out.

Look back several years. It is the standard leftist tactic that goes ignored and unopposed/stopped by anyone. ESPECIALLY Palin topics.

All you have to know is that most, not all but most of the biggest Romney sycophants are ALSO the biggest PDSers. There are a couple notable exceptions but the overwhelming truth holds. And the more energy expended them and each other, as I said, the less left for fighting the problem.

Animals are pretty amazing and can sense things quite well. I have never raised a child with downs syndrome so perhaps it’s different with them.

My Aunt’s little dog shocked me as my son had only reached out to pet the dog and boom, it snatched hold of his thumb and didn’t want to let go, the mean little dog was sitting on my Uncles lap. They wouldn’t put the dog up after —so we left. (years and years ago)

I guess that incident left me a little shell shocked. A dog with food is just something I’ve done because my parents raised me with the same rule.

With horses I am careful about walking behind them because I had a kicker. Ha! My dad would put a I’m a KIKKer (radio station) sticker around her tail when I was participating in events (western).

I use my dogs as foot stools and as a pillow on occasions. One of my Boxers is such a stubborn arse that she pretty much plays dead when you want her to move— you can push and scoot her all around and she just lays there—works great! :D She is also a turd and will sit on my other dogs head if my other dog has the spot that she wants.

Interesting point, I noticed that the dog seemed very fond of Trig, but I forgot that the dog may have a special, protective interest in him.

He was standing on the dog in other pics. But while I would teach my special needs child not to do this (the boy is only going to get bigger and bigger) I also see letting the dog do the teaching. the left is still pissed that she didn’t abort Trig. Abortion is ok, standing on a patient dog is not.

That was a bad move on her part. What was to be gained by posting images of her kid standing on a dog?

The dog is smiling, and the boy is balancing himself, rubbing the dogs back with his foot. Hell, anyone can see that.

“Sarah has a deep love and respect for God, America and our Constitution.”

But, she showed bad judgment here. I’d hoped she had more common sense than that.

"So lets kick his grandma out of office. Ooops, we can’t. She isn’t in office."

Sarah is Trig's MOTHER, not grandmother.

How bout we focus on getting a RINO House Speaker removed from his position? Maybe a Real Conservative nominee as for president?

We select you for both. Now get to work raising money and your popularity.

I certainly wouldn’t bet the farm on it if it were my child. But this particular animal has likely known that kid since when. But having talked to the parents of this ASD kid, it’s their experience that animals kind of give the kid a ‘pass’.

This particular mean cat nearly chewed my hubby’s hand off once upon a time when he simply tried to pick it up out of the way. They eventually made friends after a few bouts of shrimp and tuna bribes. Said cat grudgingly subsequently accepted hubby and grudgingly allowed himself to be moved and/or handled. But forget any pettings or cuddlings. LOL. He tolerated hubby and that was it.

He avoided the kids altogether until his behavior changed with the tumor. I never had to worry about his being mean to them as he simply didn’t allow them to get close enough, he’d up stakes and move or jump somewhere out of their reach. I never allowed the kids into the ‘cat room’ and that was the first baby gate we actually installed. The cats had a place out of the way and could eat and sleep in peace there.

I was bitten by a horse. Once. Haven’t liked them since. And I was trying to be friends with the mean horse by offering it a carrot. Took the carrot and tried to take my hand as well. Mean horse. Of course, I was only special in my own mind LOL. And I had been warned about the horse. But at 10 I knew better than the owner. I didn’t do that again though.

Kinda sad when we have namby-pamby busy-body Freepers who exhibit PDS and attack Palin for this harmless post.

If the dog moves suddenly the child could take a hard hit on the chin ...

Of course, you are correct. The kid should have been bubble wrapped first.

That they ACTUALLY hate about the photo, is that most people look around and think “looks kinda like my kitchen”. They hate that with a purple passion.

Really? Going to hyperbole already?

Well its 2015 America. If you don’t put a Snell certified helmet on them at bedtime in the hyperbaric chamber, you’ll have SWAT/CPS division called on you when the NSA checks the camera in the baby monitor.

Staffed probably by the pearl clutchers on this thread.

ScottinVA is a long time anti-Palin poster, he has a habit of sniping and digging at her.

Scary thought huh?
