I can’t stand it when anyone prefaces a comment like that. Actually if you’ve thought enough in advance to know what you are about to say is rude, just don’t say it. I mean, if you don’t want to be rude that is. I just watched 10 seconds of Larry King to see the Liberals all giddy and snide about Sarah Palin’s 17 year old daughter being pregnant. Two of the guests prefaced their comments with “I don’t mean to be rude, but…” with such a satisfied little smirk. So I have to ask myself, if the shoe was on the other foot would I be all over this too? Say Barack has a teenage daughter and turns out she’s pregnant, would I be on my moral high-horse about it? I can honestly say I wouldn’t. As a mother I just think kids are off limits. Its vile and trashy to strike out at someone by attacking their kids. The fact that this story came out after rumors were flying around that Palin faked a pregnancy to cover her daughter’s pregnancy is just sick. Photos of the kid comparing stomachs to her mom? I just think its pretty low. I don’t think that kind of ugliness wins people over…not for long anyway.
