Heehee, I was going to ask "for the kids or the balloons" then saw he added to the post.

I was thinking the balloons. They're just begging to be punctured.

That original vagina/ clown car does make me laugh.
I don't think Palin's family is extreme enough to lay that on her though. And neither do I think having a baby at 17 makes you trash. Intellectually suspect in my book, morally different, but not trash. She's going along with one of the tenets she was brought up with after all.

I know it's just a joke, but I too don't think Palin and her family are trash. I don't think having a child at a young age makes you trash. It happens. Teenagers have urges. Some follow through. Some pregnancies occur.
I remember them, the urges, not the pregnancies! :p My beefs with Palin are beefs with her, not with her family. In fact, she has some cute girls there, and they may be very nice people. Remember how they slaughtered poor Chelsea? That was just wrong wrong wrong.

Maybe she likes babies. Maybe she likes sex too. oooh, white trash. So yea. The judgements are sexually based, proving my point. Sexism is a-ok now....Now that someone you don't like obviously does the dirty deed, it's not ok....I think she should spread her legs all she damn well pleases, and she obviously is making an attempt at taking care of all 5 if she's a fucking governor. I'm no Pialin fan, but I'm getting sick of these sexually based attacks. You are no better than Pailin for engaging in that activity.

I have a problem with that stance too, Cicero. When Palin first hit the news there was something about her hair. I was like "who gives a flying rat's ass about her hair? What's SHE about?"
Turns out I don't like her politics. But look how they painted Hillary: a cold fish bitch who would just as soon cut your dick off than listen to you. That's sexism too. I'm sure women in public office are prepared that it's going to happen, but it doesn't make it right. We've come a long way, baby, but we've so far to go. Is this a good spot to once again remind everyone that women didn't get the vote until 1920, 50 years after the 15th amendment asserted the following: The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. Women are still scorned, subjugated, and disrespected. We have oh so far to go.

Wow, apologies again for derailing this fine thread.
However, I don't see where the sexism comes from. It takes two to make a clown car and the husband is in each motivational poster. They can have all the sex they want, the poster is talking about how many children is too many (and apparently the cellar has determined it's somewhere between 5 and 18 ). And at the end of the day, it's all In Someone's Honest Opinion so I defer to the water balloon poster... |

I agree with cicero and shawnee. and that the marital and up-the-duff status of her daughter have nothing to do with her ability to be VP. Her actions/statements may make her a bit of a hypocrite, but not much -her daughter's old enough to make up her own mind and you can only shape your children's futures and choices to a certain extent. And while we're at it, white trash is racist.
Now can we get back to the funny stuff?

You're not derailing and there is no need to apologize. You have opened up a discussion on what is fair in the political arena.
I don't give a shit about the clown car poster. I was talking about the Palin poster. I think 18 kids is some kind of illness, trying to fill a hole, or keep your hole from being empty: or religious fanaticism. I don't find it admirable. I find it selfish and misguided. By the way, those clown car people are posers: they'd need 4 MORE kids to make it to 18. That is a big difference from 5 kids, imho. Crack welfare hobags excepted (and I mean those who have kids to get more bennies then don't take care of the kids) 5 kids probably means you love children. Nothing wrong with that. But 18? I was raised Catholic. I get the concept. I know we don't live in biblical times anymore and I know you can't make kids slave in the fields all day anymore. And you've made the dried up old bat hillary references before, cm.
