Bristol Palin's gay marriage rant: Obama girls watch too much 'Glee'
Politico ^ | 5/10/2012 | By CAITLIN MCDEVITT

Bristol Palin thinks it’s laughable that President Barack Obama’s children influenced his decision to support same-sex marriage.

“While it’s great to listen to your kids’ ideas, there’s also a time when dads simply need to be dads,” Bristol, the eldest daughter of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, wrote in a blog post titled “Hail to the Chiefs – Malia and Sasha Obama” on Thursday.

Obama said on Wednesday that his daughers' acceptance of friends with same-sex parents helped prompt his "change in perspective." In response, Palin writes:

In this case, it would’ve been helpful for him to explain to Malia and Sasha that while her friends parents are no doubt lovely people, that’s not a reason to change thousands of years of thinking about marriage. Or that – as great as her friends may be – we know that in general kids do better growing up in a mother/father home. Ideally, fathers help shape their kids’ worldview.

In this situation, it was the other way around. I guess we can be glad that Malia and Sasha aren’t younger, or perhaps today’s press conference might have been about appointing Dora the Explorer as Attorney General because of her success in stopping Swiper the Fox.

Sometimes dads should lead their family in the right ways of thinking. In this case, it would’ve been nice if the President would’ve been an actual leader and helped shape their thoughts instead of merely reflecting what many teenagers think after one too many episodes of Glee.

Remember Deborah: when men don't do their jobs, God raises up women (cf. Judges 4-5). As far as I'm concerned, I'm a man who will take any help I can get in the culture wars regardless of anatomy.

When in doubt and all judgement fails, let a little girl decide the direction of thousands of years of culture and civilization.

Isn’t Amy Carter almost old enough to be Bristol’s mom? Why would she mention her? Amy wouldn’t even be in her frame of reference. LOL

“Bristol would be a better president than Obama!”

Yes, indeed, she would!

But, my dogs, Dougie and Mr. Wiggles, would be better than Obama/Biden, too!

Just sayin'......

Yes conservative activist Bristol Palin is the go to girl for sexual morality, she has been crusading for abstinence and pro-life, for several years as an official abstinence spokeswoman.

Obama had a screwed-up childhood because of selfish, cold, strange people who were his biological parents.

Looks like he's bent on carrying on the family tradition.

I thought parents who would take the opportunity to send their children to a Quaker school would expect more from exposure at that school than their daughters being being grossly influenced by some students gay parents.

Depends on what it means to be "Quaker" in today's world. It's possible that modern Quakers are more like Unitarians, who seem to be atheists who haven't kicked the Church habit.
