Sarah Palin. Some more. Some guy made a documentary to show media bias against her. Liberal, mainstream media. Palin, in an interview clip, said McCain's handlers made her continue with another one or two interviews with Katie Curic after the first one didn't go well and she, Palin, didn't want to continue. But Palin didn't refuse. She didn't take much credit for screwing up. She did blame others.
And the shocking horror of people discussing her unmarried, pregnant teen daughter. The issue is the ramming of absestence only birth control education by the religious right on the public at large represented by the very fundamentalist Christian Palin who's religion and abstinence programing doesn't seem any more effective than planned parenthood methods. But nobody talks about this. They only argue about the correctness of mentioning her daughter's slip or not mentioning it.
One of the problems with teen pregnancy is the tolerance for it. Her daughter's been sanctified by the right when the right are the ones who scream the most about it, blaming the left. They can't control it either.
Why shouldn't people talk about her. They keep snarking about Hilary's pantsuits. And the teen pregnancy speaks directly to Palin's politics. Her right-wing, religious politics. A national candidate? She's too Alaska, a very rural, small town state. Parochial. Well, I sure spelt that wrong.
