Sarah Palin Makes a Rolling Blunder at Motorcycle Rally (Scandal? Piper was on a motorcycle!!)

Girls are in far more danger when single moms allow their boyfriends to live with them. But don’t count on Ms Murray noting that.

[Clint N. Suhks]

I suspect that the bike never got over 25 mph.

Exactly! They start at the Pentagon Parking Lot on a closed GW Pky accesses road and they never go over that much. Kiddie rides at the amusement park go faster.

[jwalsh07]

PS: My 4 year old granddaughter rides with me on my dirt bike when we go for a ride. Her favorite words? Faster Grandpa faster!

[rightly_dividing]

Get a life, nuttin wrong here.

I grew up on the back of my dad's Triumph 650 back when that was a big fast bike, before the Japanese invasion of cheap bikes. There were no helmets in those days, and I was the luckiest kid in mid school because I got picked up every afternoon on a big bike.

My dad rode from the mid 20's till about 1970. I have some old pictures of him on his bikes before WW2. Before he passed away a few years ago, my best friend took his very nice HD by for him to see, and I also showed him a modern Jap rice rocket. He marveled at the changes that time had brought.

[LostInBayport]

I have many fond memories of riding on the back of my dad’s motorcycle as a little kid. That was FUN. I didn’t like wearing the helmet, but the rides were well worth that inconvenience.

This “issue” will only resonate with the liberals who encase their kids in bubble wrap for “play dates” that involve indoor activities only. Those who actually let their kids LIVE a little will smile in appreciation.

[Williams]

Plenty of people put a toddler on the back of a bike and go all over the place.

If Piper shouldn’t take a completely legal ride on a cycle, then she shouldn’t be in a “dangerous” car or bus, either.

Will bet you my house the author supports moms aborting babies.

[2ndDivisionVet]

I was watching Modern Family the other night and the homosexual couple had their little adopted daughter at an indoor toddler event or some such. What the hell? When I was eight I would be 4-5 miles away from home on my bike, all the time!!

[GOYAKLA]

Is this Murray related to the Idiot from Washington who “lies along the same fault line”.

[Jeff Winston]

Are there risks? Absolutely. But it’s a personal choice.

[Baynative]

Dear Ms. Murray,

GET A LIFE!!!

[WXRGina]

Hey, 2ndDivisionVet, maybe Ms. Suzanne Moron would prefer that Piper ride a bicycle. Maybe like this: http://www.thepostgame.com/features/201105/video-bmx-triple-backflip-makes-roller-coasters-look-lame

[LibFreeOrDie]

“Will bet you my house the author supports moms aborting babies.”

Bingo! One of her tweets links to PP:

Nah, I think Ms. Murray would’ve preferred for Piper and her siblings (especially that “useless eater, brain dead Trig”) to be aborted, from the sound of it. The Nazis may change their garb, but they’re easy to spot once you read what’s going on in the heads.

[King Moonracer]

is this witch effing kidding? 10 year olds race all kinds of motorized vehicles, and she was with her dad. These nanny state libtards need to be rounded up, sterilized, and placed under commune arrest. The libtards around here would rather keep their kids off their hogs so they can go driving in their leather costumes and pretend to be bad-ass on the weekends. Mommy, can you watch my children this weekend so I can go play biker?

[LostInBayport]

When I was eight I would be 4-5 miles away from home on my bike, all the time!!

Same here! My mother would tell us to go outside and play and come back before it got too dark. My friends and I would explore the woods, ride our bikes, whatever. And then came winter and we got out...the snowmobiles! Ms. Liberal Writer would have fainted if she saw us on those!

[jacquej]

Yep, my dad taught me to drive the tractor when I was the ripe old age of seven! I managed to keep it straight in the rows and turn at the end nicely.

Farm kids are around all kinds of dangerous machinery, and are carefully taught the dangers of each piece, what can happen if you get in the wrong spot, etc.

NYS won’t even allow “youts” under 18 to operate riding lawn mowers, or weed-whackers now!

Then we all complain when they are unprepared for the world of work, right?

[OldSmaj]

In a former life, Suzanne Murray was a lawyer, a journalist, and a green lifestyle guru.

Well, apparently, she's still a dumbass and most likely will die a dumbass.

[Lee'sGhost]

Absolute proof that Sarah terrifies the dip sticks.

The sad truth is, PIPER is more “manly” than libtards.

[M-cubed]

I just read the comments....lol...Even the Palin haters are on this jour-no-list...PDS is alive and well but even the dumb “rats” can see a public lynching...

Should be good for them...They might start to think a lil bit on their own now that they've seen the 1st beam of light...... Make no mistake...They FEAR her!!!

[Finny]

Why am I not surprised that Todd would be the one carrying Piper? I should have known in any case.

An line by Arthur C. Doyle from "The Abbey Grange" comes to mind. He "rings true every time."

My stars, how I do love good MEN.

[Poser]

It's got to be a "city people/country people" thing. There is no way anyone can be informed and still be that stupid. Pure ignorance!

[M-cubed]

My thoughts exactly....even a dumb rat, at some point, will realized that they are being lead and lied to

[hattend]

In her current life, she's raising 8 chickens and one adventurous three-year-old.

How adventurous can the kid be with a mom like this?

She probably has a leash on him/her.

[Jewels1091]

Good grief, i was riding a small motorcycle at 10 years old...without a helmet!

[Finny]

>>In a former life, Suzanne Murray was a lawyer, a journalist, and a green lifestyle guru.>>> Wow. Three losers in one, like the Unholy Trinity of Stupid.

[^ )

[unseen1]

rent free. Palin lives rent free 24/7/365 in their freaking heads...

[hattend]

Her Mom was up behind her other daughter Willow.

Willow wasn't there...politico got it wrong. The bike owner was a family friend.

[Finny]

... and in this life she is an IDIOT!

Another one that's got me giggling out loud!

[Georgia Girl 2]

I think they were going all of 25 MPH most of the time.

[danielmryan]

“In a former life, Suzanne Murray was a lawyer, a journalist, and a green lifestyle guru....”

Care to guess which one of those three decodes into "bad driver?"

[lowbridge]

[gwilhelm56]

**back then the school didn’t have any input on such things.**

I remember kids getting on the school bus with their rifles. They were going hunting right after school with another student ..and was going to ride THEIR bus on the way HOME!!!

[brytlea]

Well, I have to admit, having casual sex and being aborted seem more dangerous than riding a motorcycle. Is she against those too?

[GatorGirl]

It’s hardly MSM.

It’s a blog post on an inane women’s site.

And her readers are not supporting her AT ALL.

[Finny]

Expression on her face — and her body language. She’s good for go, as in NOW. Neat pic!

[danielmryan]

If this lady came to my house in the summer she’d have a heart attack.

And then furiously lobby for a whole new slew of laws. Those kind of people give "tireless minority" a bad name.

[bray]

This meltdown lib most likely aborted her daughter so she can lecture Palin.

Pray for America

Righty-O, 2ndDivisionVet!!!

[Kickass Conservative]

The Cop is just jealous because the Kid has a nicer ride.

[hattend]

That’s funny right there!

[madison10]

Those aren’t kids on that ummm...thing. Which was the hovering mother’s point.

One thing for sure everyone should see that cycle coming.

[NonValueAdded]

Extreme case of PDS.

[danielmryan]

She probably has a leash on him/her.

Around 1995, I almost literally saw that in a mid-Toronto suburb. Some office-worker type was riding his bike and pulling his small son along with a leash tied to the son's little bike.

I remember thinking at the time: "better get used to that leash, kid."

[Finny]

Those who actually let their kids LIVE a little will smile in appreciation.

A little city vignette, that really happened: A middle-class private school in Southern California, population about ten zillion in 1,000 square miles of city, where the "rivers" are freeways and the hardscape is asphalt. It was raining, one of those neat So Cal rains where the drops are big, generous, and continuous, and the temps are in the 60s.

Some wonderful teacher or principal had let a bunch of kids take their shoes off in the middle of the day and go romp and run and stomp and cavort to their hearts' content in the rain. A bunch of, I'd say about 9-year-old boys and girls in their blue-white uniforms, no shoes, having a blast.

It was pretty neat to see.

[piytar]

This idiot “journalist” got chewed up in the comments at The Stir. Hilarious!!!

[thecabal]

What an absolute crock. I was tearing up the orchards and fields near my hometown when I was 11 years old and riding a Suzuki 75cc dirtbike. One of the greatest times I had as a kid. My parents never supervised me. Yeah, I had a few minor injuries, but so what? I lived and learned something that today’s bubble-wrapped kids never will.

[PA Engineer]

look at the comments at the link. She’s not getting the reaction she planned on, I’ll wager. Even the self-described Palin-haters think the author jumped the shark!

Not one comment in support from the liberal registered users of the site. Half of them start out with "I don't like Sarah Palin, but". The occupation media is alienating their own supporters now. Insanity masquerading as Intellectualism.

[dangus]

Wow. Even among the Palin HATERS there’s not one supportive comment.

[LostInBayport]

That is a GREAT story. I could almost hear the kids laughing as I read it.

Imagine...letting kids be kids!

[Venturer]

Well anyway, she was hot.
