This is quite unfair that everyone is trying to use this issue on her it has nothing to do with the public they are just trying to find dirt on her so that they can use it against her and if OBOMA gets in we are screwed!!

having just returned from my 7th trip to Africa where I work with HIV/AIDs affected & infected orphans & families, it is not that condoms are ineffective... it's that they are not used correctly. PLUS the HIV virus is actually smaller than the molecules that make up condoms. It is true that abstinence is the ONLY effective way to 100% prevent pregnancy and the contraction of STDs, but in all reality... not everyone will stick to that method. I think that in proper education abstinence needs to be taught and the values that go along with it, but protection also needs to be taught for those that could care less about abstinence...

In regards to Palin's daughter... her daughter's choices should not be held against her. This isn't something that should affect her ability to be a candidate. The fact is... there isn't a person out there without something in their background to piss off somebody.

And Holly... no, I still haven't completed all my Palin reseach... I told you I would start here... ;)

Honestly I think that the Repoblican approach to this whole situation is so hipocritical. They have never been known as a party that has shown sympathy to single mothers. Anyone remember Reagan and his welfare queens line? ad Bristol been black or Latina they would be asking who is going to pay to raise this kid?

Obama definitely took the high road on this. It's good to see a politician that avoids personal attacks on other politicians. That's only a small reason why Obama has my vote!

And to think I was worried about telling my mother that I was pregnant ... without being married ... at 35! *lol* Anyway, Obama's statement concerning this story raises my opinion of him.

I honestly dont see the importance as to whether or not Gov. Palin's daughter is pregnant, regardless of age. As for Mr. Obama's comments, its good to see someone finally stand up and say the right thing, even if it's only a pr stunt.

Congrats to Bristol, and I think Obama's certainly right about this.

oh i just posted a link to that in a reply to you! i think Obama handled it quite perfectly.

as to the abstinence only approach, i have nothing but terrible anger and frustration knowing that there are parents condoning teaching their children (among other unrealistic things) that *condoms are ineffective*. yes! that's what they tell them! they tell them condoms aren't any good, like that's going to prevent them having sex. all it's going to do is discourage them from using protection, when it could quite literally save their lives. and even in these hopeful days when advances in "drug cocktails" have enabled some HIV and AIDS sufferers to survive in the long-term, for the uninsured, under-insured, or those without tens or hundreds of thousands of thousands of dollars a year to pay for these advanced therapies, it's still a death sentence. and let's not even get into the thought of teenage girls giving birth to HIV positive babies.

to tell a child that condoms are ineffective is criminal. it's child abuse. the law dictates that we put helmets on our children's heads when they ride bikes, and strap them in car safety seats when we drive them. we've placed limits on teens with new drivers licenses. why on earth is it not mandatory that children receive an appropriate and honest sex education, including a stern lecture on the terrible danger of failing to use a condom?

i have much sympathy for Bristol, but not nearly as much as i do for the young girls out there who suffer an unwanted pregnancy without the family support and resources that Bristol has. if she chooses to complete her schooling and attend college, she won't be struggling to work two jobs and pay for child care, or forced to get by on food stamps and welfare if her baby daddy bugs out on her. sure, her unfortunate situation is national news right now, but there are worse things than that. there are far, far worse things.

and i really, really wish the 'pro-lifers' would just STFU. either that, or get out and protest this stupid war, stand up and make your republican overlords listen and take action to end this terrible slaughter of the already born! if you're gonna be pro-life, you should damn well be anti-war, specifically this war which we got into because our administration LIED to us. good men and women are being killed every day because of these *lies*. anyone who is in favor of life, should be deeply offended at that thought.

This is a plus. As Mark Steyn points out in his recent best seller, America Alone, if our western civilization is demographically to survive in the increasingly “hostile to the west” islamic world — and not end up like the sinking European populations — these are the precise people (the Bristol Palins’) we should thank for increasing their progeny.

Honestly, this story is absolutely ridiculous and has no business being a news headline -- "staunch, conservative, anti-woman, anti-choice politician" or not. Furthermore, realizing that killing an unborn child is wrong doesn't make anyone "anti-woman".
