He has to say that. It was a smart move

He should let his fans do the mudslinging on his behalf.

Lindsay Lohan Calls Bristol Palin Teen Pregnancy "Distracting"

I’ve been watching the news all morning, like everyone else - and I keep hearing about the issues related to ‘teen pregnancy’- It’s all related to Sarah Palin and her 17-year-old unmarried pregnant daughter. Well, I think the real problem comes from the fact that we are taking the focus off of getting to know Sarah Palin and her political views, and what she can do to make our country a less destructive place. Its distracting from the real issues, the real everyday problems that this country experiences.

“I am concerned with the fact that Sarah Palin brought the attention to her daughter’s pregnancy, rather than all world issues and what she believes she could possibly do to change them-if elected. I get Sarah Palin’s views against abortion, but i would much prefer to hear more about what she can do for our country rather than how her daughter is going to have a child no matter what. Maybe focus on delivering some words and policy with stronger impact like Joe Biden.”

On another note-the last note- i heard a woman say on TODAY on NBC that teens are feeling as if they have to grow up faster. Really? Because, i think that girls that are CHOOSING to be sexually active and are making a conscious decision to grow up faster,  I think that parents need to recognize how important it is to talk to their children about the things that can result from being sexually active if they aren't protecting themselves (birth control, condoms, etc.)

Well, I am not the one assuming they were forced or not forced. What I am saying here is WE DO NOT KNOW SO WE CAN NOT MAKE THAT CLAIM at this time. We can not make an argument for them being forced cause WE DO NOT KNOW.

Again, you are assuming here that her daughter is SUFFERING because of her mother’s choice. I mean here we are talking of a woman who was already GOVERNOR of Alaska. Do you really think that if Palin was not running for VP, this news would have not made the news? We are also assuming that the daughter was not consulted before the final decision was made.

Well, I have a sister and we went through the same sort of situation some years ago (we were not running for VP though). I would say my mum is an evangelical and she had to deal with people condemning her as not being a good enough mother because my sister got pregnant out of wedlock. My mother had to go ahead with her plans to continue pursuing her career and we would not have had it any other way as my sister was already 17 and old enough to not need my mother around every minute to take care of her. Most 17 year olds I know are already out of their mother’s house and living on their own.

She was already GOVERNOR OF ALASKA, the controversial ABSTINANCE  AND PRO-LIFE STATE. She was already in the lime-light when she got pregnant. I don’t know what is peachy is telling you it could be one of the two and since we do not have facts, all we have are assumptions here. Never asked you to VOTE Palin or Shake her hand. Matter of fact, this has not been about Palin but about being able to accept that teenagers will always be teenagers regardless of who their parents be.

Kobojunkie:
Now are we not running away with ourselves when we say that PALIN is FORCING the girl to marry the boy or that PALIN FORCED the girl not to get an ABORTION because of her(PALINs) own belief here. there is no such report to show that this is all PALIN and not the daughter and her boyfriend willing to get married. There are so millions of Americans today who got married after discovering they were expecting. Majority when they were teenagers.


I mean she did feel the need to announce it and let people deal with it. Now, I am not saying I would do the same thing but I don’t believe if I were to put myself in the gals shoes, I would live happy knowing that I was the reason why my mother lost her chance at being VP of America. It is a tough call and we do not know at this time what went on behind closed doors with the family, to say that the girl herself did not say MOM, PLEASE DO NOT WORRY ABOUT WHAT THEY WILL SAY ABOUT ME; I AM WILLING TO DEAL WITH IT … or something of that sort.

I am not sure any of the above is based on fact either.

Its amazing how politics take the upper hand even in family and private issues. Does the guy described above come across as 'husband'? NA HUSBAND BE DAT ?. Na wa o. The main problem i have with the whole thing is the Palin's speech on it. All of a sudden, what her daughter did was now the beautiful thing to do, with her painting the 'happilly ever after' scenario

You single gals have to be careful o
some people may have dvd's stored up ready to pull it out.
It may even end up on the internet
this is a scary time to be doing the do

tpia:
she should have vouched for him at his trial.

Hannibal:
I use a journalist's tape recorder to make sure.
In case she tries to play dice with me, i fish out the tape as evidence.
To catch a monkey, a man has to be a GORILLA.

tpia:
The women can and they do.

This helen herself knows that.  Where was she when Mike Tyson was getting himself in trouble?

Asked if she reported the incidents, which took place when she was younger, to the police, the 63-year-old replied: "No, you couldn't do that in those days. It's such a tricky area, isn't it? Especially if there is no violence. I mean, look at Mike Tyson. I don't think he was a rapist."

Former heavyweight champion Tyson was sentenced to six years in prison in 1992 for raping a Miss Black America beauty contestant in an Indiana hotel room.

There lies the problem.

Question sisi, would you say a girl should alwauys expect heavy petting to LEAD to sex? If she doesnt wnat it to get past the "heavy makeout session, is it wrong for her to stop it from going further than that?

"I don't think she can have that man into court under those circumstances. I guess it is one of the many subtle parts of the men/women relationship that has to be negotiated and worked out between them."

tpia:
sisikill- why do we find ourselves at opposite ends of an argument these days?

Is it really that hard to find evidence of rape?

Any doctor can verify evidence of sexual activity in the pubic regions.

Facts and allegations are two totally different things. Thats why the man is at a disadvantage in such cases. His main defence in most instances is either to get reliable witnesses saying no rape occurred or else damage the girls character so her testimony can be disregarded. A third option is settling out of court.

GOP Establishment Wrestles With Bristol Palin Pregnancy

The Politico) The early response among Republicans to the announcement that Bristol Palin, the 17-year-old daughter of GOP VP hopeful Sarah Palin, is pregnant, has been calm and collected, although it has definitely raised concerns for rank-and-file Republicans that more unpleasant revelations may soon follow.

Responding to Internet rumors that Bristol Palin had given birth earlier this year, and that Sarah Palin had claimed the child was her son Trig, the McCain campaign released a statement saying that Bristol Palin is currently pregnant and plans to marry the father.

Republicans have either taken the line that Bristol Palin's pregnancy is a personal matter for Palin and her family, or they are suggesting that it is a situation that lots of normal Americans can relate to, either from their own family history or that or friends and classmates.

"I don't think this is going to be a big deal down the stretch" of the 2008 election, said a top House Republican aide, speaking on the condition of anonymity.

"It's nobody's business but the Palins," added another Senate GOP leadership staffer.

But it does create a level of uncertaintly about Palin, among Republicans and the media, and that can be a huge negative for Palin's candidacy. Combined with Troopergate, the allegation that Palin fired the top Alaska state police official because he refused to fire Palin's former brother-in-law, a trooper.

"Clearly, yes, absolutely," said a GOP strategist when asked about whether Republicans were afraid more negative stories about Palin would emerge soon.

"Palin can get through this, but what you don't want is a level of uncertainty about her, about whether she should be on the [Republican] ticket. That's not a good thing for any candidate."

Obama Says Palin Pregnancy “Off Limits”

Barack Obama addressed a gaggle of reporters this afternoon to discuss the latest goings-on with Hurricane Gustav. After brief opening comments on the much-hyped, overly politicized hurricane, reporters were curious about one thing: 17-year-old Bristol Palin’s pregnancy, made public today.

“I have heard some of the news on this and so let me be a clear as possible: I have said before and I will repeat again, I think people’s families are off limits, and people’s children are especially off limits. This shouldn’t be part of our politics,” the Democrat said forcefully. “It has no relevance to Governor Palin’s performance as governor, or her potential performance as a VP. And so I would strongly urge people to back off these kinds of stories,” he continued.

The candidate who himself was born to a teenage mom, reminded reporters, “You know my mother had me when she was 18, and how a family deals with issues and you know teenage children, that shouldn’t be the topic of our politics and I hope that anybody who is supporting me understands that’s off limits.”

When asked about an “unnamed McCain advisor” accusing the Obama campaign of spreading despicable rumors surrounding Bristol Palin online, Obama interrupted the reporter mid-question. “I am offended by that statement. There is no evidence at all that any of this involved us,” he said directly. “Our people were not involved in any way in this, and they will not be. And if I ever thought that it was somebody in my campaign that was involved in something like that - they’d be fired,” he added.
With that, Obama boarded his airport-bound bus to head to Milwaukee for a rally.

I mean if a woman accuses a guy of rape, then its up to him to prove himself innocent.

Sometimes its not always about whether or not a woman led a man on. A lot of (black) men have fallen into this trap, which is very unfortunate. Life isnt always fair.

oyibo women especially- if they say stop then stop. Even then the man may still get into legal trouble like Kobe Bryant.
Black women may overlook a lot of things, but not every woman is like that.
