Ok. So when Bristol and her dude get married, will they have medical insurance after she no longer is on Governor Dearests’ dime?

Jamie Lynn Spears sent Bristol a baby shower present. Cool!

Wow…I guess I’m wrong and overestimated this. They were indeed that stupid…

OK, this is a crazy thought, but what do you think the odds are that we’re in for a “just kidding” kind of moment at the convention?

Everyone is talking about this being a stupid choice and that she’s, well, a loon. And yet McCain’s campaign has been really smart, winning all of the all-or-nothing states when Romney should have had the nomination handily.

Could this be a fundraising ploy to draw attention and energy away, rattle the ultra-conservatives into donating (i.e., give or get stuck with her) and then they spring Lieberman?

I can’t believe anyone is taking her seriously. Or any republicans for that matter.

Man, as a human services worker, mother and woman- that makes my blood boil! She is like the worst of any of my horrific woman bosses all rolled into one! (Not that there aren’t many bad men bosses or great woman bosses!)

Covenant House is a Christian organization. This is exactly the kind of program someone with her supposed values and ideals should be supporting. The more I learn about Sarah Palin, the more dangerous she sounds.

I saw that last night. Yeah, I would say that that is relevant.

Yes, take that line of thinking and go with it.

Compare the teen-pregnancy and future prospects of the Governor’s daughter to that of thousands of other 17-year-olds in the same position.

Find out how many other young mothers-to-be go through their 9-months without any pre-natal care because they can’t afford it, and then show how they struggle to care and raise an infant, now dealing with the worries of two people without health care.

And compare the life of the teen mother to the potential life she could have had, if she was given access to birth control.

I have three children (who were planned thanks to birth control), and the only money I spent for health care during my pregnancies was for vitamins and iron supplements…and I guess you could include the gas to get me to my pre-natal appointments.

Not allowing access to birth control, and then not assisting with the medical (and other) expenses of a pregnancy is outrageous.
