She already proved she can't handle a family (Bristol) and run for Governor. Now she wants to be President? Hah!

From your comments, I can only assume that you believe that women should just stay home, keep their kids in cocoons, and not bother their pretty little heads about the tough business of politics. Actually, there have been unplanned pregnancies in girls from families that do just that. Amazing, isn't it?

*shakes head*

And politicians HAVE brought their kids along on campaigns. Most of the time we don't realize it, because the younger candidates are usually stumping for state and local races, so they don't make national news. Most Presidential candidates have been older men, and couple of women, whose kids are either not living at home any more, or are involved in things that conflict with a campaign schedule, so they're not as present on the trail.

Barack and Michelle brought their kids along on the campaign, but you didn't hear the MSM trashing the kids continually did you?

Yeah and some of them think she’s being to thin skinned with this one. Me? I think that those who think the joke or sarcasm was funny should remember that is they are really trying to get rid of negative attitudes toward people with disabilities, ds in particular, they need to not let any jokes go through. (I don’t watch the show so don’t know) It’s kinda the camels nose under the tent type of thing.

And not all parents with children with down syndrome supported Sarah, there are many who think she needs to stay home and take care of that baby, he takes much more work to raise, etc etc etc..... My self I admire her and the support that her husband gives her to pursue her goals. And many of those moms thinking that she should stay home and take care of her children actually work out of the home. Kinda ironic how they think.

Is her image really so brittle that it cannot withstand the sort of rough talk that is so commonly used here against any number of other candidates and office-holders, both male and female?

What, precisely, are you trying to protect? Do you really want a president who has to be protected against people who say mean or inappropriate things?

Who said he's trying to protect anything? Do you understand anything at all?

The poster is acting like an @sshole, and it's being pointed out to him. Think of it as being similar to picking up the dog poo in your back yard.

Yup... hit another nerve -- which isn't hard where discussions of Sarah Palin are concerned.

Just look at how hard folks are working to protect Sarah Palin from hard words. Look at the posts on this thread, just for starters. It's like she's some fragile little thing who can't take the sort of language that's commonly employed on other politicians of both sexes.

You really ought to think about that. Is the problem that she's all that weak, or that you think she is (even if you say otherwise), or maybe both.

Since you're defending Lefty McFarlane's attempt to belittle Trig, it doesn't suprise me that you're also defending Letterman, who make jokes about raping Palin's daughter. You are a troll.

Don’t worry about Sarah being “too weak to handle it”. She’ll stomp your boy Mitt Romney six ways to sunday. It’ll be vicious and devastating. But since it will be quick, it will allow him time enough to slink away to one of his places for a few months to heal up long enough to hopefully not give a characteristically lame, weak, pathetic speech at the convention.

I’m a conservative

Your posting history is nothing but senseless attacks on Palin....except for the one post, where you foolishly attempt to defend truther Medina. Are you a Paulite?

“The second she used her kids as campaign props, she brought them into politics.”

Probably no different than Barack with Malia and Sasha, or Dubya with Jenna and Barbara, or any other politician and their kids.

“She already proved she can’t handle a family (Bristol)”

If you’re referring to her pregnancy, you’re apparently indulging in a standard liberal pastime-namely blaiming people for the actions of others.

“Now she wants to be President?”

She said no such thing. I’m a Palin supporter, but while I feel that sometimes some of her supporters can be very (maybe too) passionate, I can understand why they’d be offended by your remarks.

And there's another common and blatant idiocy among the Palin crowd. Why is it that not supporting Palin makes you assume that a person must therefore support Romney?

Why should anybody take you seriously?
