Dr. Laura's Blog: Sarah Palin and Motherhood

Sarah Palin and Motherhood September 2, 2008 on 1:35 pm | In Children, Election, Sarah Palin, Working Women Email This Post Email This Post

I am extremely disappointed in the choice of Sarah Palin as the Vice Presidential candidate of the Republican Party. I will still vote for Senator McCain, because I am very concerned about having a fundamental leftist, especially one who is a marvelous orator, as President.

......

I’m stunned - couldn’t the Republican Party find one competent female with adult children to run for Vice President with McCain? I realize his advisors probably didn’t want a “mature” woman, as the Democrats keep harping on his age. But really, what kind of role model is a woman whose fifth child was recently born with a serious issue, Down Syndrome, and then goes back to the job of Governor within days of the birth?

I am haunted by the family pictures of the Palins during political photo-ops, showing the eldest daughter, now pregnant with her own child, cuddling the family’s newborn. When Mom and Dad both work full-time (no matter how many folks get involved with the children), it becomes a somewhat chaotic situation. Certainly, if a child becomes ill and is rushed to the hospital, and you’re on the hotline with both Israel and Iran as nuclear tempers are flaring, where’s your attention going to be? Where should your attention be? Well, once you put your hand on the Bible and make that oath, your attention has to be with the government of the United States of America.

IMHO...Dr. Laura is a twit...and I’m sure Gov. Palin is not going to loose any sleep over what she thinks!

Dr. Laura is a skanky old homebreaker who needs to STFU NOW!

I’d like to see the spotlight of scrutiny fall on Dr. Laura’s life. Then let her run for elected office.

I heard Dr. Laura read this blog on-air before she posted it. Wasn’t too happy with what she said, although I have had some of the same concerns.

As for Bristol cuddling her little brother, so what? I’m fourteen years older than my brother and I did lots of cuddling. Girls/women just DO that...Dr. Laura should know if she’s such a great counselor.

Dr. Laura also needs to look into Jewish history, heck look at world history, to see that the “women at home with kids” is a rather recent development. Hasn’t she ever read Proverbs 31?

Dr. Laura, with all due respect, some women can do it all. One of those women is Sarah Palin.

Dear Dr. Laura:

STFU!

Would you be happier with Joe Biden as VP?

Dr. Laura could always offer her services as Palin’s official nanny. /s

Yes, I don’t think Dr. Laura spent her life doing nothing but baking cookies and getting the crud out of the shower when she was a “mom.” Is that really what kids want in a mother, in any case?

Wait a minute, didn't Dr. Laura have a preteen son when she went off to do her syndicated talk show? Mrs. Kettle meet Mrs. Black.

-———”I’m stunned - couldn’t the Republican Party find one competent female with adult children to run for Vice President with McCain? “-——

Palin’s nomination is flushing out the flakes....Dr. Laura, Peggy Nooner, Mike Murphy, Kay Bailey, and more that I’ve missed. Good riddance as far as I’m concerned.
