The Myth of Conservative Morality

So Sarah Palin's young, unwed daughter is pregnant... I will leave the attacks to someone else, but I would have you think about what the neo-fascist conservative talk radio hacks would say if one of Obama's black daughters was unwed and pregnant. Obama says family is off limits, I say, "Cry havoc and let loose the dogs of war!"

But let's look at something else that is more telling. The Conservatives would have you believe that the Liberals are killing the American Family. Let's run a little scorecard:

DIVORCE:
Sen. John McCain - Check (and he divorced his crippled wife to boot!)
Sen. Barak Obama - Nope

EXTRAMARITAL AFFAIRS:
Sen. John McCain - Check
Sen. Barak Obama - Nope

FAMILY LIFE:
Sen. Joe Biden - raised sons for 5 years on his own after wife died in car accident. Result - no pregnancies
Gov. Sarah Palin - eloped with husband; raising family together. Result - unwed pregnant daughter

SCANDALOUS BEHAVIOR:
Sen. Joe Biden - Nope
Gov. Sarah Palin - under investigation for firing trooper who would not support her vengeful acts against sister's ex-husband.

FINAL TALLY IN BAD BEHAVIOR:
Conservatives - 4
Liberals - 0

Hey, life is hard. Things happen. But when you are pointing fingers at the people who are screwing things up, point them at the Conservatives, not the Liberals.

And keep a skeptical ear for when people talk about "Real Family Values."
