If we are going to verbally attack girls under 18 who get pregnant before they are married, perhaps we could start with Barack Obama’s mother. Yes, check your facts on that one, it is true!FIRE LETTERMAN! He is crass, tasteless and out of touch with all women.
Barack Senior did the right thing and married Stanley A Dunham. Why doesn’t Levi Johnson do the right thing, oh wait because Sarah doesn’t want Trailor Trash marrying her daughter Bristol! http://www.shortpeopledate.com/
Yes, Jonas, BO senior married the teen who he knocked up and took her back to his home in Africa. But soon he left her and went on to be “Baby Daddy” to a few more. But I’m looking for the jokes here…where are the jokes??? Not so funny a subject when it is about someone you support politically. I think it is called HIPOCRASY!
I don’t like EITHER Obama or Palin. However, Palin does run on an absitence-only, no abortion, “family values” platform, and that SHOULD be made fun of, when such a person has a daughter who can’t keep her own pants up. I myself was raised by a single mom, but she’s not a bible-thumping hypocrite.
As for Obama, he’s a liar and a stealth Muslim who let slip in an interview his true allegiance, and THAT ought to be made the target of scorn as well.
No politician is, or should be, sacred.
Verbally skewer them all, keep ‘em on their toes.
There’s only one legitimate place I’ve found to see the real clip of the JOKE and the video of him apologizing, the rest seem like scams :-/ You can see it over here though: http://vostuu.com/carradine.jpg
They make you do a little survey but after that it’s good to go
Is there anyone here that has had someone in their lives who had a baby before they were married? Maybe you yourself? Maybe your sister or brother? Maybe a close friend? If you have, then is it wrong of you to stand for family values? Are you the cause of your families faults? If you wish for a higher standard, do you yourself have to be perfect? President Obama smokes, yet he is against smoking in his policies. Does that make him a hypocrit or someone who wishes better for the people? I guess none of your daughters are having sex. And if they are, then YOU are a terrible parent. Right?
If the family were liberal and they ( both girls) were liberally educated to taking the pill or using rubbers the joke would not have been valid at all. The joke was about conservative sex abstinence values not working. Conservatives want to (and have) de-funded family planning programs etc, they use their 14 year old to promote those politics. But nobody can debunk their politics by pointing it out in a ( not literal ) joke that they are pron to getting knocked up? That is total BS. Plus I would raise my daughter to be able to laugh at a joke. even that joke. I would have told it to my 14 year old – don’t get knocked up to A-Rod while you’re at the game dear? laugh. Big deal! Sometimes a joke gets the point across. Don’t get pregnant until you can be responsible. It doesn’t mean to lower self esteem or anything else. In fact acting like they can’t handle a joke, lowers their self esteem more.
