Apparently Bristol Palin is an easy target, if you know what I mean.
lolol
I'd do her
She's almost as feminine as Caitlin Jenner.

There once was an un-written political rule that involved courtesy and descency, one that simply stated kids and family members were off limits. As Liberals' ...POLITICIANS'... ethics, morality, tolerance, and descency sank lower and lower they ignored this rule more and more. Liberals / politicians believe in pushing the boundaries and continuing the 'deed' and it will eventually be accepted. If it isn't, they protect themselves from criticism yet pounce on and punish anyone who does the same thing. Some things never change...and no matter how many times they continue to do it, it still isn't ethically acceptable. Actually its pretty PATHETIC.
If you can't win an election on your own merrit, if you have to stoop to personally attacking children and other family members of your opponent to somehow prove you are 'better' and more 'worthy' than they are you have done nothing but prove the opposite.
I don't care who does it - Hillary, Obama, Bush, Cruz, Trump, Sanders...whoever - if you want to prove you deserve the Presidency, or any office, it's really simple: Tell me why I should consider YOU. Why should I vote for YOU! Tell me what YOUR ideas are. Don't tell me the problems we face - we are all well aware of that. What are YOU going to do about it? If you have to deviate from that, if you have to mention anyone else's name you have just proven yourself unable and unworthy of holding the office you are seeking. I don't want to hear about anyone else, not from YOU...I want to hear about YOU from YOU!
The moment I hear a politician anymore say anything negative about another politician I say in my mind, "F* Off" and turn THEM off! If more Americans would do the same thing, TEACH them we want no part of THAT kind of politicis, things would get better, and we would have better candidates!
Dear

What I WOULD criticize the Left on is how easily they overlook jumping on Sarah and Bristol Palin with sexist remarks targeting and degrading women,
but complain when this tactic is applied to Hillary Clinton or someone on their side.
I actually pointed this out at a liberal feminist women's group when I heard them repeating insults about Sarah Palin. I confronted them, saying if you didn't approve of people making such remarks about Hillary Clinton, why are you teaming up and bulling Sarah Palin based on remarks that can be taken as sexist?
I think you have an argument there!
And please note, sexism isn't excused if it's women instead of men doing the bullying ad targeting of women. Regardless of the gender or race of the people
doing the bullying, if you are targeting victims of harassment by their race that is still racist, or by their gender that is still sexist. It depends on the nature of the comments made that are taking advantage of someone's race or gender to disparage them on that basis.
People complain all the time of Blacks being racist against other Blacks,
and getting away with it. Nor should women get away with targeting other women based on gender.
Honestly, if you ask me, I'd say it's better we all shift away from this media culture of harassing and disparaging people or groups for the negative publicity and hype.
We have the gifts of free speech, free press, right to petition and democratic due process. Why not use our words to lift each other up, share solutions and encourage better working relations and collaboration to improve situations and problems we all agree are otherwise costing us resources we can't afford to lose.
I'd like to see the media shift in that direction, and politics along with it.
Maybe on behalf of the Clintons and Palins used as easy target practice,
I should invite posters here to join in a challenge to pick a member you have difficulty seeing eye to eye on, find an issue you equally care about, and
write a petition, letter or start a media campaign asking others to fund a solution.
the diversity and courage to put aside the conflicts
in order to focus on a solution might attract public sympathy,
attention and even financial support if you find a smart solution.
My friend Juda and I are polarized opposites on the issue of abortion.
She doesn't even want abortion legal for rape and incest,
and I don't believe any laws should be passed without consensus
by the public since these involve beliefs, so I am prochoice to an extreme.
If we can agree that health care and social benefits should be
divided by party, so people can fund the beliefs of their choice,
how many people would join us in a class petition to BOTH parties
to separate funding and policies, and manage programs that the
constituents can voluntarily fund and deduct from our taxes
either as business or charity, depending on what each party sets up for its members. Why not petition the party leaders to put the money where their mouths are and practice what they preach, as well as fund it directly?
Wouldn't that stop most of the bullying if we weren't forced
to be under the policies of the other group, so the attacks would stop??
