Muscatine

Nedl is right on the nobama making his kids part of this. Weren't they in a political commercial?

Yeah, I saw them all together several times. Can't remember the events though. Seems Obama was first to do that though.

In Springfield, IL the whole Obama family  appeared when NObama announced that he, indeed, was a candidate for POTUS. I think as long as this campaign has been running I think that announcement was about 10 years ago!

My point (and some of you are just too dense to get it) is that we  and the media were asked to respect the family's privacy and let them deal with this.  2 days later the pregnant teen is being trotted out to for all the world to see.  This is somehow supposed to make Palin look like she's just another American mom dealing with every day issues.  She's  proud that her daughter chose to keep her baby, she's thrilled to become a grandmother, and she's letting a 17 year old get married?  Yea, that'll fix everything.

Sorry, but most  parents are smart enough to arm their kids with knowledge and protection in the event they engage in premarital sex.
