The rape of Sarah Palin

We did you a favor with Kerry, admit it.

Just wanted to save this little quote. I guess was can use it if we want to start attacking McCain's service?

Or maybe it's a justification for Sarah Palin that you so desperately want to protect as her cyber knight in shining fucking armor.

Give me a break. You people trashed multiple war veterans in the last 8 years. You refused to give more funding for veterans. You are too cowardly to do the right thing so you make the National Guard do multiple tours of duty in an ill-planned, ill-conceived war. You doctor intelligence.

You let veterans come home and leave them in a very poor VA system, you keep them living at or below the poverty level, you try to scrimp them out of what they are owed when they are wounded.

And then you play party of the patriot and do nothing but trumpet the value we place in our servicemen nonstop.

And that's not even mentioning the "T" word which was noticeably avoided by Bush and Thompson.

I gotta channel me some Dennis Kucinich here.... WAKE UP AMERICA!

Uhmm, Bristol Palin was not, or is not running for any public office.

As I see it, the word "rape" was used as a metaphor.

Where was Bristol mentioned in this?

Rape was a stupid and completely unnecessary choice of word to use as metaphor.
 
I care more about Palin's judgment as a mother than her daughter's judgment as a girlfriend and sex partner.

Is this what you are saying? You think her daughter getting pregnant was a lapse in her ability as a parent and therefore disqualifies her to hold political office?

Or she shouldn't subject her family to the media rape?

Correct me if I am wrong.

  • Or she shouldn't subject her teenage daughter to the media wolves?

Correct me if I am wrong.

FYP

That one.

Are you saying that it's Palin's fault her daughter is pregnant? If you are; are you not a parent? Were you never seventeen?

A poor one in this case. The word doesn't even remotely apply here, not even metaphorically.

This might be a good place to point out that Biden had his own experience with unwanted scrutiny from the "liberal media," when he was the same age that Palin is now. It wasn't unfair then, and it isn't unfair now.

I'm a parent, and I was seventeen. And even my conservative Republican parents made sure I knew about birth control and how to get it. They didn't want me having sex, but they didn't think I should become a teenage mom (or die), if I chose to do so.

Is it Sarah Palin's fault her daughter had sex? No. Is it Sarah Palin's fault her daughter had unprotected sex? Possibly, at least to some extent. And she wants to make sure my daughter, at 17, has the same lack of choices and information. That's the kicker for me.

My old man always told me as a teenager, "If you get a girl knocked up, that's fine, but you WILL be joining the military or working in the salt mines to take care of it!"

Must be nice to have such a cushioned lifestyle that "oh well, mommy and daddy's money can take care of my baby".

Aren't the nights like 6 months long? I couldn't afford to buy rubbers for all that down time.
 
I'm in the shit heap right now.

That you are.

In my brief time here, I have yet to see another thread that managed to offend so many so entirely...and for good reason. Wtf.

You've never struck me as one of Lit's whackos. So to look at it in a light most favorable to you, it was, at best, ill-conceived and foolishly delivered. So the question becomes, how do you redeem yourself? An apology to every rape victim here would be a start; another apology to every woman here would be a great idea; an apology to every man who found the use of your "metaphor" (an iggy for Garbage Can by the way) offensive to women and to themselves as men who respect women might be an adequate finish. Might. It tends to be a little unforgiving around here.

Now, if you really believe that the media scrutiny that Palin is under, by her own actions, is equivalent to rape, then there is no redemption.

How you handle the shit heap you now occupy will show what you're really made of.

In a heartbeat this same poster will tell you why it's one hell of a good idea to let Washington DC run your heath care the way they've run it for the people who got shot instead of aborted, because, as we are learning, only the stupid, or desperate, fight for what they believe in...

Are you incapable of teaching your hypothetical 17 year old daughter about unprotected sex?

By his own admission, he's not here for a popularity contest. So he should like being on the shit heap since it doesn't matter to him. And he can fucking stay there if that's his attitude.
