stories on the pregnancy of Sarah Palin’s seventeen year old daughter, two above the fold. The liberal collection of helium known as the blog Daily Kos ran with conspiracy stories that Sarah Palin’s youngest son was actually her grandson , which seems to (alarmingly) be where the MSM started their hunt. Local liberal bloggers claim that this evidences some sort of conservative hypocrisy, which leads the pack as to all the mind-altering, inane conclusions.

Of course, hypocrisy would be choosing abortion over life, a position the far left would usually celebrate.

Unbelievable.

We are told that children are off-limits in politics. Except, of course, when we are talking about a Republican woman and her daughter. To Barack Obama’s credit, he did not assert that Bristol Palin was being punished with a baby.

This sort of ill-placed vitriol will backfire.

The truth is that the Palin family is as morally consistent as one could hope. In two instances, life has been chosen over convenience and ambition. If anything, we know we have someone principled in the vice presidential slot. Historically, America does not take well to the unfair criticism of those who hold to their beliefs. In this case, expect some public outrage, and a marked increase in those who know Sarah Palin and like her.

In the meantime, we should all be disappointed that the outfit who claims “all the news that’s fit to print” made this story its lead, even over the transfer of Anbar province, the province that held the heart of the insurgency, from American to Iraqi security forces.
