The 17-year-old daughter of John McCain’s running mate Sarah Palin (a.k.a. Governor MILFalicious) is reportedly five months pregnant. The McCain campaign revealed the news to rebut rampant rumors that Governor Palin’s infant son is actually her grandson and she faked her pregnancy to protect her daughter Bristol. You seriously just read all that, and I’m now 90% positive John McCain’s research involved picking this woman’s name out of of a hat. Reuters reports:
The Palins, in a statement released by the McCain campaign, said Bristol “came to us with news that we as parents knew would make her grow up faster than we had ever planned” and that their daughter “has our unconditional love and support.”
“We ask the media to respect our daughter and Levi’s privacy as has always been the tradition of children of candidates,” their statement said.
Senior McCain campaign officials said McCain knew of the daughter’s pregnancy when he selected Palin last week as his vice presidential running mate, deciding that it did not disqualify the 44-year-old governor in any way.
I know the knee-jerk reaction will be to point out the hypocrisy of Governor Palin’s faith-based public views on supporting abstinence-only education and overturning Roe v. Wade. But let’s not lose sight of the real issue. Which is Sarah Palin shot a moose.

They are not called parents that is childishly redundant (or republican). They are called fools. One must assess a situation with not logic my friend, not emotion. Hoping that a young person will be able to control their hormones is a mindless assumption and is therefore ignorant.
Vote McCain. Even though he is clearly not very bright and is of no value to this country. He demonstrated that already with being one of the Keating Five and now look at his judgement call on a VP!!!!!!!!!!!
extracheeseplease | September 2, 2008 at 9:09 am
Her daughter is a 17 year old! hold up wait a minute, this VP selection is the equivalent of Lynne Spears. 5 kids, one of them with Down’s Syndrome and a pregnant teenager. Lynne spears has a retarded daughter and had a pregnant teen

McCain is a disgrace and not qualified | September 2, 2008 at 9:11 am
Presumed Republican presidential nominee John McCain believes that Czechoslovakia is still an existent country, despite the fact that it has not been for 15 years. This makes him the type of person that one might charitably describe as a dum-dum.
Now, I know what some of you are thinking. Some of you are thinking: “Hell, I didn’t know Czechoslovakia isn’t a country anymore, either – and, darn it, I’m no dum-dum!” Well, maybe you are and maybe you aren’t, but it’s rather beside the point since you’re not running to be the president of the United States, which is one of the most globally important jobs on the planet.

I’m referring to the young people who end up pregnant. As in, do you know what they call people who use withdrawal as a form of birth control?

Sexuality is genetic. That’s why 90% of kids in abstinence only programs have sex as teenagers. Why the stupidity of upholding anti-contraceptive views when they so easily fail?
Judgement | September 2, 2008 at 9:25 am
Fuckin Republicans and their hypocrisy! It’s typical of them to preach all that “morals” shit and “rightgeous living” and then they can’t even get their own children to follow it.
If this would have been Barack’s 17 year old daughter, they would have painted him out to be the worse person/parent alive!
crabby old guy | September 2, 2008 at 9:26 am
The pompass f-tards on the left who bash a 17-year old’s life changing situation are as stoopid (if not more so) than a pompass f-tard on the right who would bash her if it was a Dem candidate only serve up additional proof that what this country needs is a good enema.
A facist “Father Government” of the Left is as big a horror as Uncontrolled blind greed of the equally self absorbed jags on the Right.

How could it be hypocritical? Gov. Palin is anti-abortion and her daughter will be having a baby. I think that it is honorable that even though Bristol’s pregnancy comes at the worst time in Gov. Palin’s political career, she is first fulfilling her role as a mother and supporting her daughter. Seventeen year olds make mistakes…and it shows the strength of family that she has the support that she needs. If Palin had kicked her daughter out of the house and disowned her, THEN I would call her hypocritical…

Wait…Palin is against sexual education at school…so here you go.

Funny how Sarah Palin opposes sex education for high schoolers.
Poor daughter. If only her mom had let learn about birth control, this could be avoided.
Ted Kennedy's tumor | September 2, 2008 at 9:35 am
At least she is not going to murder her unborn child as most libs would do and will keep the child. From what I hear, she and the boyfriend will get married. So that will be one less single mother in the world.
I am no Obama fan at all, but he did a classy thing by saying that it is a matter between the parents and shouldn’t be the topic of our polotics.

Haha, a 17 year old marrying the father of her unborn child. “So that will be one less single mother in the world.” For about …I give them 18months…and then she will be “One less married woman with a faithful husband and a great marriage”.
Come on, you do not think this works, do you?

Desert Rat | September 2, 2008 at 9:47 am
Hey, ya know, maybe if Sarah Palin and/or her husband spent more time at home being involved in their 5 childrens lives, and less time promoting themselves, their careers, and shooting mooses (meece?), young Bristol might not have made this mistake. Or more to the point, wouldn ‘t have had the opportunity.
At any rate, I think it is perfectly valid to judge parents by their children, as they are primarily responsible for shaping their characters. In this case, young Bristol demonstrated that she totally does not respect any of the ‘values’ her parents espouse.
I guess it just goes to show that people are sexual creatures, and our mounting hysteria over under-age sex, birth control, abortion, etc. just highlight how completely dysfunctional our culture has become.

#12 Osama/Obama thinks that there are 57 states in the US, which is clearly less informed than thinking that Czech is still a nation. Last I checked, he was running for the president of the US, I think you need to understand the breadth of the land you intend to lead before grasping nuances of other countries.
#32 My real world example is 18 years and still going. Just because YOU would personally leave the girl you knocked up, doesn’t mean everyone is a piece of shit too.

What’s so wrong with wanting to have your baby and not run out and kill it? I don’t get you, Americans.
Everyone goes all ape shit if someone is not for abortion. YOu should thank your mother she didn’t abort you.
There are girls who have babies young all over the world. Heck your mom was probably 17 when she had you.
So wow….we call her a hyprocrite because she doesn’t want to MURDER her child. Wow. So full of love and morals we are.
Whatever. Go have unprotected sex and then go run out and kill your baby because you’re a coward. GO MURDER! YYYAAY!

Obama'saracisist | September 2, 2008 at 10:02 am
Sarah is not for teenage pregnancy, just the government shoving their ideas and condems down people’s throats. Parents should educate their own children on sex. Doesn’t mean teens won’t get pregnant either way. The left wingers just encourage their kids to kill their babies.
Why was Chelsea Clinton off limits, but this girl is not?
The haters are sweating. If she is so “imcompetent”, you should be thrilled with this choice.
By the way, Obama’s parents were never married. No one has said a word about that.

shante mcnasty | September 2, 2008 at 10:02 am
Everyone rags on Sarah because she only has 2 years of experience as a governor. Well wake up, Obama was only a SENATOR, he’s never even been a governer.
He stands to socialize a nation. Do you guys even know what that means? I swear it’s like you idiots prided yourself on ignorance.
A young girl gets pregnant and has her baby? How is that hypocritical? Do you even know what hypocritical is?? Hypocritical would be this…her daughter has an the baby and then kicks her out of the house or doesn’t love and support her….that is HYPOCRISY.
You people are so uneducated. I’m not saying McCain is the best pres. electorate….but damn…
Like we needed TWO MORE old fogie geezers to get up in the White House and drive our country more into the ground. So what if there is a president up for election.
Men you hate on this all you want…I’m sure Sarah won’t have stained pant suits because she gets it on with some intern and can’t discipline herself and embarrass not only her family but a nation.
Get a grip you whimps and stop applauding people who kill their children and have the balls to not abort them.
Seriously. I’m sure you’re on you’re on your way to WalMart to buy some of you Obama signs because someone in China probably made it while being whipped with stick while their fingers lay bleeding at factory….you know…because you’re not a hyprocrite or anything.
Our nation is weird.

If this Palin can’t get her own daughter to practive abstinence, then how the fuck can you justify teaching federal abstinence only sex-ed programs????
Go look at how the STD rate for high schoolers has skyrocketed since no one’s wearing a fucking rubber anymore. Thankfully that hasn’t showed up in the junior highs yet…
