" I think those who have been able to make the choice and then want to take that same choice from others are hypocrites. "


I think that is a little harsh.

I don't know too many pro-life people who try to push their stand on everyone else.

So, if you only take her at her word, it is "ambiguous" for her to say that the people of Alaska should decide?

That's good.

We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures.

"I don't have to like or approve of anyone else's choices to understand they have the absolute right to make them."


That is true on this issue, not necessarily on all others. It is also true that I am not obligated to provide the means for anyone else's choice.

I also feel pretty sorry for the kid. Personally, if she were my child I would have pushed her to have and abortion. If she was decided to go through with the pregnancy I would have insisted on an adoption. Children should not be raising children and it is not fair to dump kids on grandparents.

Everyone seem to be giving Palin a pass on parenting. I don't think she does such a bang up job. She sent her oldest son to Michigan for his last year of high school. http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080829/NEWS15/80829051/1215/NEWS15
From the comment in the paper it doesn't look like she visited him a lot. There are a number of internet rumor that he got into all kinds of problems in Alaska.

Personally, I see her a someone who is totally absorbed in herself. She seems mean, selfish and vindictive and perhaps a little off. Remember sociopaths are very charming people.

I believe that her record as a politician alone was adequate to keep me from voting for her.
