About Politics
By Micah Halpern

Tuesday September 2, 2008

I've Been Thinking:

The Palin announcement was short and to the point.
The Palin announcement was a political bombshell.
Bristol Palin, 17 years old daughter and 5 months pregnant by her boyfriend Levi, intends to marry Levi and bring the baby to full term.

Barack Obama reacted politically, politely and debonairly.
He said leave the candidate's family alone, my mother was only 18 when I was born.
But the problem is bigger than that.
The problem is that teenage pregnancy is a very serious campaign issue.
This pregnancy is going to be the backdrop of almost every discussion on family values, on parental influence and on education. It cannot not be.

Who vetted Palin?
How could they not see this on the horizon - didn't anyone talk to the kids' friends?
For days now the web has been filled with rumors that the youngest child of the Palin's was really the child of their daughter. Some of the discussions date back to before the announcement of the Republican vice presidential candidate. The material was there to be raised and yet, it was not.

This is a real blunder.
Just remember, Sarah Palin has not yet been officially nominated.

Read my new book THUGS. It's easy. Just click.
