Question: If it had been one of Obama's daughters who'd become pregnant as an unmarried high-schooler, would any of you, on the right or left, change the statements you've posted above?

I think the question is would Barack Obama change his position. He has stated publicly that should one of…

This woman Palin is no Hillery (sp) Clinton.

If I had to make a comparison at this point in time I'd say she is a female Teddy Roosevelt, the American president I do believe McCain has said he admires most.

President-for-Life Vlad Putin poisons his rivals, has Russian journos assassinated and also provides military aid to Zimbabwe and Iran because, well, his fears of NATO member nations encircling his vast empire.

This woman Palin is no Hillery Clinton.

I can think of no higher praise for a woman in politics, liberal or conservative.

McCain defends VP pick, to a record crowd of 20,000 in Missouri today.

"...As one veteran of Missouri politics said, that's the sort of crowd usually seen in October for a president — not in August for a candidate..."

"...I stand by my earlier posts, if you bring a disabled child into the world that child's needs must come first..."

It's not yours or the government's place to decide how she and her husband and/or their extended family will raise the child.

"... just the clips of Palin shooting an automatic rifle must have shook the foundations with glee for certain in holed up in the basements for duration of the run-up to the elections..."
