Sarah Palin has sparked outrage by posting pictures on Facebook of her son standing on her dog.

[Norm Lenhart]

Look at the desperation of the ‘mortified’ PETA members on this thread. The MSM has NOTHING on them RE false outrage.

[Resettozero]

I wanna be like the enlightened ones! Because CLEARLY they are smarter, more moral and have better dog skills than us lowlifes!!

You have a valid point. Yes, we all need to study their ways and byways and improve our lot. Carry onward...

I think you are flipping out more than anybody on this thread.

[Resettozero]

The “worship” reference was directed not at you, but at her church deacon.

In the post addressed only to me.

I yield to your right-of-way to plow ahead.

He is not standing on the dog. He has one foot on the dog’s back. There is obviously no weight on the dog.

This is what they do. They deliberately and intentionally misuse words. The media picks up the misused words, and the left then uses them everywhere, every time it can, and never lets go.

Truth doesn’t matter.

You are correct again.

Norm, please gather yourself together and restore the expected decorum on this thread that features some known PDSers making appearances to speak out for dog welfare and commonsense with how to raise Down Syndrome boys.

(Pen both of them up behind Bristol's apartment?)

It appears Trig sees the dog as an “inanimate object” rather than a flesh and blood dog that could be hurt.

It was a teachable moment IF she had explained to him the dog could be seriously hurt by standing on him/her. Plus, as some say, if the dog left, Trig would be on the floor, hitting whatever on his way down.

I'm neutral about Palin. She seems to talk in “catchy sayings”, rather than in specifics and that is troublesome.

LOL, what is obvious is your years of anti-Palin sniping and back biting. Exposed.

Think back of how silent tie PETA and others were when the BLM shot and buried Bundy’s cows. Both PETA and the SPCA were silent as church mice.

Not at all, that is why most of us see this as sweet and warm, they clearly love each other.

“Will she ever be required to pay rent for residing in their heads? :-D”

Nah, that’s vacant space anyway.

[Cementjungle]

It’s good to know that the left is still very much afraid of Sarah.

[Altariel]

Bingo. This is an opportunity for Sarah to explain to Trig that animals are capable of feeling pain and may *hide pain* to keep from showing weakness.

If he is literally mentally incapable of understanding that one does not treat living creatures like inanimate objects, he is not mentally capable of being given unsupervised access to the family pets (which he clearly had for him to step onto the dog’s back).

Also, since she knows that Trig likes to help with the dishes, why isn’t there a stepping stool by the sink?

[Norm Lenhart]

Yup. Remember that well. PETA only fusses cows when they benefit the right. Like with luxuries like food.

When their death benefits a Democrat? BBQ!!!

[huldah1776]

The animals probably see the kid’s three guardian angels. :-)

[Roscoe Karns]

Ellen Degeneres posted a similar picture on Twitter. No fake outrage then.

It’s called “Illustrating absurdity by being absurd”. Perhaps you have heard of the concept.

Rush made millions on it. Because it works.
