Willow Palin's homophobic slurs reflect on Sarah Palin's parenting or lack thereof talk show host Joy Behar has suggested.
Willow, the 16-year-old daughter of the former Alaska governor, attacked a former classmate, named Tre, on Sunday.
Sarah Palin's Alaska, is failing so hard right now, Tre wrote on Facebook during the premiere of the reality series.
Which prompted Willow to respond Haha your so gay and Your such a faggot.
Willow and her sister, Bristol, offered a halfhearted apology, saying that they shouldn't have reacted to negative comments.
Behar criticized the incident with openly gay comedian Judy Gold, legendary talk show host Dick Cavett and In Touch Weekly Senior Editor Erika Vetrini on HLN's the Joy Behar Show.
Their camp is saying she [Willow] doesn't use this language, this is new. I don't believe that, she's 16-years-old. This is the way she speaks, Vetrini said. And when you hear that your child is speaking this way, it's your responsibility as a parent to inform that's not the proper way to talk.
Behar agreed, adding that her use of the word faggot was beneath contempt. (The video is embedded in the right panel of this page.)
Gay GOP group GOProud saw things differently, saying that such words are only homophobic when it comes from the daughter of a conservative leader.
Make no mistake; this is about destroying Sarah Palin by any means necessary, the group said in a statement.
While the politician turned conservative celebrity has previously criticized the use of racist and anti-disability comments, she has yet to speak out on her daughter's homophobic remarks.
thats a good point, teabagger is a homophobic slur
Where was Joyless Behar when Sandra Bernhard was saying how Sarah Palin should be gang raped by her “Black homies” oh yeah, now I remember, she was laughing along right with her. Joyless Behar is a disgusting, bitter hag. I hear she has a daughter, may God have mercy on that poor child, being raised by THAT
Ghey & faggot from someone the age of willow Palin means “stupid” or “lame”.
You're right about that. I work with teens and these terms are used as generic putdowns, not in any sexual sense.
Calling the guy faggot was not a homophobic statement, because the guy wasn’t gay. It’s like a black guy calling a white guy the n-word.
And I’d be shocked if the openly gay commedian she interviewed had never used the word “faggot”.
I hate fags and let them know it, so what?
It shows she’s a young kid, that’s what it shows. We all tossed that word around at each other when we were young, nobody really believed the kids were that, they just called them that. We all got called a bunch of other things and called others a bunch of things. It’s the vernacular of kids.
Perverted people rarely like to have their perversity made fun of. Big shocker.
And when you hear that your child is speaking this way, it’s your responsibility as a parent to inform that’s not the proper way to talk.
The Joy Behar Show discussing and promoting family values. Now that’s a sign of the imminent end times.

I almost quit my job when my boss called me “dude”.
Still looking. He is too busy texting and facehumping to see the stacks of help wanted pages I strip from the newspapers at the bar every day. He is no teen either, he just hangs out with them.
Behar is a complete witch and a vicious vile ugly one at that.
Its also OK to call them teabaggers, by Joy which is even worse.
True dat blood! (Fist bump)
Pity is probably a better choice of words.
Willow says things that should make any parent proud.
Y’know, it’s individuals like Behar that test my limits for Christian tolerance. She is so full of hate and loathing, I think nothing sort of an exorcism could release the Satanic grip that has a massive hold on her soul.
Oh please, it's basically one kid calling another kid stupid, and doesn't even rise above mildly embarrassing. It's not as if she were a grown adult who appeared on national TV and called someone a bitch who deserves to go to hell, just because you disagree with their political position. Now that would be beneath contempt, but I'm sure Joy Behar is above all that.
I’ve got news for Joy Behar...that’s exactly how many many people from 12 to 24 talk....this is a story??? Facebook much Joy?
Joy Behar is Christophobic apparently.
You’re exactly right about that!
