Democracy Waning has been watching the Republicans in St Paul and …..

It’s the second day of the Republican Convention. They had to curtail their festivities on Monday because of the hurricane in the gulf.

Yes hurricane Gustav reminded Americans of the sorrowful reaction to hurricane Katrina by the current Republican administration and the republican leadership didn’t want to be seen on split screen TV telling the world of their accomplishments while another group of poor people drowned in N.O. But since the hurricane was not as severe as thought and since there were too many republicans with too much time and too few un supervised public rest rooms in St. Paul they thought they would rather get back to crowning McCain as the heir apparent.

Now with the weather news they have got an unwanted forecast from their Vice President candidate.Yup, Sarah Palin’s daughter is with child.

She has been bumping uglies with a man who is a self proclaimed “Northern Redneck”. And I’m sure they will have an interesting baby. 

The redneck 18 years old and the daughter 17 years old will avoid the questions of statutory rape by getting married in Dec.

Now a young girl getting pregnant is not the story except for the comic relief.( Like when she carried a baby to block the baby she was carrying) The story here is that Sarah Palins has tried to deny sex education for teens. She believes that only abstinence works.

Sarah doesn’t believe in giving out birth control or condoms only in putting her foot down holding her breath and demanding that teens abstain from having sex.

No family planning or education for kids. Well Mrs. Palin, hows that working out for you?

Since your way of education doesn’t have any secondary plan no back-up it always leads to an un-wanted pregnancy. The other part of this story is that she, Mrs. Palin still doesn’t get it. This out come, on which she now  has a front row seat, has had no effect on her beliefs in abstinence . She still thinks you only have to yell it louder or more often to make abstinence work. She is unable to modify her views even in the face of the changing situation in her family. This doesn’t bode well for her leadership ability.

How can she change America when she can’t change herself.?

Democracy Waning thinks: It’s ok if she wants to “shot gun” her kid and some other horney red neck smuck into premature matrimony and parenthood. But she if she gets the chance, will she do the same thing to your kids?

Peace Out!
