"I have said before and I will repeat again: People's families are off limits," Obama said. "And people's children are especially off-limits. This shouldn't be part of our politics. It has no relevance to Gov. Palin's performance as a governor or her potential performance as a vice president. So I would strongly urge people to back off these kinds of stories. You know my mother had me when she was 18 and how a family deals with issues and teenage children, that shouldnt be a topic of our politics."

He can afford to say it.
He knows his MSM pitbulls have his back like always.
I would wager that Obama is directing the mudslinging of Sarah from behind the scenes.
He has given the odious little POS KOS his blessings, made a special trip to the KOS convention, and has given KOS the green light to allow this.
This is the most vile, filthy, foul mouthed attacking I have ever seen. If Obama wanted KOS to cool it, the site, and the profanity and filth would be moderated, and the offenders removed.
Fast Eddie Rendell said it himself last week. “Obama has all the political instincts of a Chicago machine political thug”.
//I’m thinking the KOS animal is beyond his control anyway. //
He should have never got in bed with him then. NoBambi has terrible judgment.
Ping.
Back off means keep the smears going fast and hard . What a liar commie pig...
I don't doubt it. The misunderstanding I was referring to had to do with a poster on this thread apparently misinterpreting a comment made by another poster.
Hey Explodingspleen, I completely agree. Very good post!
Andy Martin says Obama is responsible for anti-Palin smears

Also, he says this in hopes that no one will say a peep about that big mouth he is married to. She's in the game, so she's fair game.
While at the same time trying to get the press to back off of Michelle and her radical associations and statements. However, Michelle Obama is absolutely fair game.
"'I have said before and I will repeat again: People's families are off limits,' Obama said."
I have it on good authority that this is first draft of his prepared comments on the matter:
"I refuse to mention or discuss my opponent's UNWED PREGNANT daughter, and none of my associates are going to mention my opponent's UNWED PREGNANT daughter, because if anyone mentioned the fact that she's UNWED and PREGNANT, it wouldn't be right (the fact that they mentioned that she's UNWED and PREGNANT- not the fact that she's UNWED and PREGNANT)."
"If anyone on my campaign staff mentions my opponent's UNWED PREGNANT daughter (or the staff member is herself my opponent's UNWED PREGNANT daughter), I will immediately fire that staff member. We all know that having opponents with UNWED PREGNANT daughters is a common occurrence these days, and is a private matter that doesn't deserved to be mentioned or discussed. After all, if anyone needs privacy and respect, it is the UNWED PREGNANT daughters of my opponents."
:D
Except for his timing. One of the themes from the left today seems to be that McCain should have announced the pregnancy earlier (presumably as in "Here's my VP pick and the soon to be grandmother of an unaborted out of wedlock child. Oh yes, her name is Sarah something." That probably would have satisfied them.) Meanwhile BHO let the KOS kooks slander on for 3 days before asking them to back off. If BHO responds this quickly to a 3AM phone call maybe we should text him instead, but then he already showed he couldn't text on time either.
Families are off limits, Barry? Apparently that doesn’t include your opponents spouse’s investments. You seem to think it’s funny that McCain doesn’t control his wife’s financial business like a Muslim husband. ???
It’s malarkey. Obama takes the high road, his henchmen push the smears. That’s his entire M.O. If he was serious about not tolerating this kind of stuff, he’d have to fire his entire staff.
Hasn’t Obama been personally attacking McCain based on his wife’s business investments for the last two or three weeks?
Barrack Hussein Obama has worked tirelessly to slaughter the unborn ("the weakest of these") and magnanimously Kabuki's the canned "be not of low attacks"--Yet, horrors, Barrack Hussein Obama does NOT fire Axelrod's slanderous ass nor by-name call out the media maggots who slavishly do Axelrod's bidding.
Barrack Hussein Obama, who is great friends with unrepentant terrorists and cop-killers, has personally and serially made much public mockery of John McCain's family.
I am not too impressed with the theater of Barrack Hussein Obama the crack-smoking bisexual Islamo-Commie baby-killing America-hating race-baiting liar and poseur from Kenya.
Yet I encourage Barack Hussein Obama to continue to dwell on the life events of a real human, which are vastly higher than the rape of Juanita Broaddrick by Bill Clinton, the killing of Mary Jo Kopechne by the drunken Ted Kennedy, the vile betrayal of Elizabeth by John Edwards, and the coverup of same by Obama's main moneyman to defeat Hillary and display that sexist chauvinism for which the Democrat Party is unsurpassed.
The Big O is going down low--again.
Damn straight.
He’s wetting himself with joy over her anguish.
I can not believe *anyone* seriously believed *him*.
He would guthook her and her whole family in a NY minute if he could get away with it.
A kind gesture by Obama. Now we’ll see if they stick to that directive.
I don't agree that people believe that. Chelsea was crucified during her Mother's campaign. She was called all kinds of names here because she was out helping her Mom.
