The Left Do What They Do Best: Smear… and stare at 16-year-old girls’ bodies
By Brian "The Squeaky Wheel" | Monday, September 1st, 2008 | Catch-AllIn the past 24 hours, the left have gone beyond their usual lying, sick selves. Allen Colmes of Fox News wonders if Gov. Palin caused her child’s downs syndrome (he took the post down, but not before a screen shot was snagged), CNN’s John Roberts openly wondered if Gov Palin was a fit mother to care for the child and the fine folks at Daily Kos accuse Gov. Palin’s 16-year-old daughter of being the mother of the baby.
The latter is the worst. The post that throws this rumor out there spends an awful lot of time examining pictures of the minor child. They go into deep examination of this childs abs, breasts and hips. They stare and gawk at the body of this 16-year-old. Of course what they fail to mention is the family picture they cite a “baby bump” in is an Anchorage Daily News photo from 2006. Wow that is a long pregnancy.
In all of this we see the usual “enlightened” discussion we have become accustomed to from the left. The only question left to ask is, will the debates be on the news, or Dateline NBC.
To bad McCain’s daughter is over the age of 18. She is too old for the liberals to stare at.

Ooops, time for another complete reversal.
(I feel bad for the kid. She shouldn’t have to suffer for her mother’s ridiculous choices in life. But she has and will. And now so will the rest of you, who find yourselves yet again defending the indefensible. Go team!)
The left is just mad because no one had an abortion.
Reversal how? Bristol is only NOW pregnant, not giving birth four months ago. Not only does it show how far the Left will go to smear, but it refutes the very foundation of the smear, that Palin would feel the need to cover up her daughter’s pregnancy for the sake of political points and security. It’s bull, through and through, and now everyone knows it.
If this was a movie no one would believe it.
I believe the baby has Downs Syndrome as well, a regular occurrence for women over the age of 40 giving birth.
From Politico:
“I have said before and I will repeat again: People’s families are off limits,” Obama said. “And people’s children are especially off-limits. This shouldn’t be part of our politics. It has no relevance to Gov. Palin’s performance as a governor or her potential performance as a vice president. So I would strongly urge people to back off these kinds of stories. You know my mother had me when she was 18 and how a family deals with issues and teenage children, that shouldn’t be a topic of our politics.”
On charges that his campaign has stoked the story via liberal blogs:
“I am offended by that statement. There is no evidence at all that any of this involved us,” he said. “Our people were not involved in any way in this, and they will not be. And if I thought there was somebody in my campaign who was involved in something like that, they would be fired.”
BIG difference between a 17-year-old being pregnant and accusing a mom of covering up a 16-year-old by claiming the baby is her’s.
And we are talkiong about Daily Kos… People who think it is OK to joke about being a POW with headlines like
“You know, there was a time when he didn’t stare at an ass for five and a half years… “

Ass holes
Thanks for the Obama statement Squeaky, i hadn’t seen that.
SW,
Nice job. Too bad you link to Kos and not Politico. I would have done it the other way around.
It’s sad, but the left is finally learning from the right’s terrible example of 2000 and 2004 (and 2008) that nothing is off limits…
Thankfully some responsible individuals like Barack Obama are still fighting to keep this race out of the mud. Thank you Sen. Obama.
It’s awfully difficult to take you seriously, Ragnar, when you take a swipe in the process.
What attacks on a candidate’s family did the right do? I hate to ask, but I’m just curious. I just don’t recall anything but the “swift boat” issue, which was a legit question on the ethics of Kerry.
I don’t remember attacks on Gore’s family; I don’t recall anyone going after the Kerry’s.
What the left is doing here is WAY different.
I also, applaud, Obama’s comments. However, I also look at them with a degree of skepticism.
Obama’s statement was only made so later he can say “Don’t blame me… I told them not to”
Here is a place with Obama’s quote
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0908/13062.html
JR – are you serious? Between the right’s attacks on Obama for being a Muslim, supporting the terrorists, having a secret Muslim agenda, questioning Barack’s patriotism, being a communist/ socialist – his mother being a some kind of a freak for marrying two men from the third world – the attacks on Michele Obama, and that’s just the past few weeks…
But, regardless, what I think is that the right actually leaked the story to do what they do best: distract us from the real issues. They get the info out, which would have happened anyway, then they blame someone else for making hay – then, while we are busy arguing about these issues, we ignore the real issues of qualification, etc (think Clarence Thomas):
1. Sarah Palin’s incredible inexperience
2. Her abject lack of foreign policy experience – she even admitted that she has only left the USA ONE TIME
3. Her earmark efforts which brought home over $36,000,000 to her town of 7,000 while she was mayor (how is she a “soulmate” to McCain??)
4. Her working to have a state trooper fired b/c he was in a messy divorce with her sister
5. Her former membership in the Alaska Independence Party (please explain to me how any sensible American can support electing anyone to be VP who once hated America enough to want to secede????)
6. Her support of teaching creationism in the schools
etc.
I’d actually love to write a post about this if I can get the website to work for me…
Wow. Dems MUST be worried to be THIS negative!
A few observations:
1. For sake of discussion, let’s assume Obama and Palin have equivalent experiene (I think she has more useful experience, but I’ll agree to say they are even). The REP ticket has the experience at the top with the added bonus of a VP with some style and personality. The DEMS on the other hand have whatever style or personality tied up in the “clean” guy at the top. Their trove of “experience” is in a file cabinet named Biden who suffers from terminal foot in mouth disease.
2. The Hollywood glitterati (who support DEMS almost exclusively) have kids out of wedlock for fun. Everybody is expected to talk about how wonderful all that is. The DEMS are now upset a member of the REP VP family will have a baby out of wedlock and therefore is trampling on DEM turf.
3. Palin has “no foreign policy experience”….welll, she is Governor of a state COMPLETELY SURROUNDED BY OTHER NATIONS. Considering the unique position of Alaska in the national defense equation, I would find it hard to believe she has not had numerous briefings on U.S. military operations in and near her state. Obama has not been in that any circumstances that place him in that position. I’ll take “not much” experience over ZERO anytime.
4. I have no problem with a mayor or a governor requesting funds for a wide variety of projects. It is the job of the chief elected official to lobby on behalf of their constituents. The ultimate responsibility and therefore the fault lies with Congress AUTHORIZING earmarks for projects of limited or questionable merit. It depends entirely on which side of the situation a person represents.
