No one is attacking the 17-year-old pregnant kid.

We're going after the hypocricy of the family values crowd.

1. Exactly. I have yet to see people actually attacking her daughter.

[Balderdash]

2. Leave the family and the kids out of it

Ask Obama. As far as hypocrisy goes, lets really examine that; the kid did not have an abortion, she will keep the kid. She will marry the father. So far it sounds like anti-abortion and "family values" (Republican version)rule the day.

4. Why'd she parade them around the other day then?

doesn't seem to me she wanted them left out of it.

5. An unwed pregnant child represents traditional family values? nt

[Virginia Dare]

3. Exactly, plus the repubs were going to run her as SUPER MOMMY..

and it also shows McCain's horrible judgment.

6. How about the Baby Daddy? Shouldn't be off limits, he's 18

Obama wants fathers to be responsible for their offspring. The kid needs to step up to the plate and marry Bristol sooner rather than later. How about they get married at the Republican National Convention. Then they can ship Levi off to Iraq. With Secret Service protection.

Oh yeah, this is the kid whose Facebook page says "I want to hang with my buddies" and "I don't want kids."

7. I'm afraid that that's not true.

Take a look in these threads.

DUers are criticising and condemning not merely Sarah but also Bristol (many of them doing so while maintaining that they're just going after Sarah).

Any mention whatsoever of Bristol, or of Sarah's parenting skills, should be completely off limits, as Obama has asked for it to be.

8. I agree.

It's vile to even bring up the teenager.
