Not the explanation I wanted to hear for his, IMHO, tarnished legislation.
And, Cassie, I think for that argument... we need to examine every working mother, every family, every working woman for that matter to determine if she should be employed. There are female physicians, engineers, line cooks, actresses, heavy equipement operators all with families or responsibilities and we haven't told all of them how they should manage their lives. It is obvious that women must be totally scrutinized and judged by our very skewed opinions as to whether they should hold the job they seek. (Men, you get a free pass here...) It is very elitist to suggest that some woman should stay home with their children and others better get to work if the income is needed. Let's get to the meat of the election and not examine Palin's private life lest your private life or my private life be examined too!

Peachie, very well said. I sincerely doubt that the pregnancy of Palin's 17 year old daughter is going to lead to the deterioration of the moral fibre of the nation's teenagers.
