Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I was off drinking beer in Atlanta and wearing silly costumes, kind of like attending a national political convention.
And, of course, I take a few days off to have some fun and what happens? Sarah Palin, the hottie Alaska governor, gets the veep nod from McCain, gets accused that her newborn son is actually the son of her 17-year-old daughter, refutes those claims, admits that the same daughter - Bristol - is pregnant and unwed, and that the kid will marry the father, who describes himself on MySpace as a *&%@& redneck."
You can't make this stuff up.
But wait, it gets better, because Palin is in the party of telling unwed teenagers that premarital sex is bad. It's even part of their platform. The only natural thing to do in this situation is to close ranks around Palin and her family, loudly declare that they're proud she's decided to have the kid and virtually demand that the media give them the privacy they so richly deserve.
Really? It appears that Bristol did have sexual relations with that redneck. We threw away privacy for family members with the impeachment of Bill Clinton. Chelsea deserves questions about how her father's infidelities affect her mother's campaign and Palin and McCain deserve, and will receive, questions about Bristol.
But seriously, what did you think the Republicans were going to say? "Bristol has betrayed our trust and we disown her?" During the convention? Get that girl an au pair from England and lets roll on to Nov. 4!
Rednecks are welcome.
