Conservatives have complained mightily about David letterman's single, probably misinterpreted, joke. Conservatives have complained endlessly about the treatment of Sarah Palin and her children by liberals.

Now we can see how conservatives on the Free Republic blog respectfully deal with the spouse and children of a politician.

Conservatives might it be wise to clean up your own house before whining about every little event that offends your delicate sensibilities?

Not at all, they were just demonstrating their conservative family values.

So I keep hearing.

It all goes back to Sarah Palin, is that the new conservative "truth"?

Why, to hear most conservative commentators talk you think most of "your side" just can't get out of bed in the morning after crying yourself to sleep at night, just frightfully upset over those nasty, liberal evildoers and their horrible attacks.

....Still, I guess such treatment is preferable to the ugly attacks Chelsea had to endure as a young teen living in the White House.

 In 1993, Rush Limbaugh reached an all-time low when he said the following on his show: "Everyone knows the Clintons have a cat, Socks, in the White House. But did you know there is also a White House dog?" He then held up a picture of Chelsea.

Can you imagine how vile a person would have to be to say that about anyone, much less a defenseless 13-year-old girl who was already struggling with typical adolescent concerns about her appearance?

Status: offline 		yet, somehow, these kids, on both sides, are pretty amazing. i recall when someone asked Chelsea asked if she thought her mother's credibility was damaged by the Monica Lewinsky scandal. my jaw hit the floor. While yes, she was campaining for her mother at the time, and an adult, somethings should fall into the realm of what is tasteful.. and that definitely wasnt. and it wasnt a reporter who asked.

Chelsea's answer, for those who dont recall this incident.

quote:

"Wow," said Chelsea, "you're the first person actually that's ever asked me that question in the, I don't know, maybe 70 college campuses I've now been to.''

Then, she fired: "And I do not think that is any of your business."

The reply drew loud applause. Then, she added, "And I also don't think that should be the last question."

She fielded one more, on global warming, and wrapped it up. Quite neatly.


Now, THATS a class act!

rob, any time I hear the "He started it!" line, I punish both kids and tell them to quit.  But if there is no specific evidence shown regarding the first incident, I'd be liable to just punish the one whining that the other started it.

Thank goodness I like the middle!

Where was the outrage when the Palin kids were attacked? Across many liberal fronts, and not just one commentator making a joke?

How many of those comments about the Obammy chillins were made by nationally known personalities on the blog listed? Does anyone here even know any of the people positng there?

You're claiming lots of liberals attacked Palin's children? Prove it. And since you set the bar there I expect it to be something more than anonymous bloggers.

Many of the comments on that link are blatantly racist and very nasty.

How many people who have to travel on business spend their own money to take family members along so they can have some time together?

Chelsea handled that question very well, good for her.

And as I have said many times here, the family members of politicians, especially the unmentionables, should be off-limits.

Just a couple of questions subrob,leaving aside for a minute your knee jerk reaction of "well they did it too"....What did you think of the remarks?
Did you have a problem with my use of the word disgusting...or did you think I was too harsh.

Nice try. I did like the two links to whines about the same photo.

However the first link should have edited the caption out so it wasn't clear the picture was an attack on Palin and had little if anything to do with the baby and also left out the revealing info that the stuffcame from the somethingawful forums. SA is not a liberal or conservative site and viciously attacks anybody that draws their attention.

The second manip is sort of an attack against trig, it protrays him as crosseyed, but precisely how is that comparable to calling an 11 year old 'whore' and 'trash?' Furthermore how do you think those two photos compare to the manips posted on Free Republic attacking Michelle and Malia?

Status: offline 		       I'm having a very strange glitch with your link, Ken, and it is annoying.  I don't wish to see these comments so I can defend them, but so I can say they are negative, unwarranted, nasty, vile, or whatever the case may be.  In other words, I'm completely prepared to offer the sort of response that I would have expected from decent people on the left regarding the attacks on the Palin clan.

      The page won't load properly for me though.  It starts fine, and I see that it is comments regarding President Obama's daughter in a "peace" t-shirt and shorts, but then it shrinks to an illegible point, and I can't expand it sufficiently to read.  Sorry.  I can't comment.  I believe there is something there that bothers you though. 

    (Whatever the glitch is, it doesn't affect anything else I do on the internet, so please don't suggest I reconfigure anything.)
