"And boy, you'd better hold Bristol's hand like you wuz stapled to it!" - Cecily

@Cecily: Super glue, please. Staples would be too harsh. :) - Jason Shultz via twhirl

Liking for the comments! (Funny stuff) - Abby Martin

I hope my son doesn't get into these new "family values." He's 14. Ahh, the fun of being a parent in today's world. - Robert Scoble

you know what is odd to me: why are they dressed like they are at a funeral in all black? - Ruth Ferguson

I wonder if buddy boy had to be shown how to tie his tie?? :) - Steven Hodson

Ruth, I wondered why they were all wearing black, too. - Trish R

that's hilarious...i can hear the PR people in his ear, "hold on to that hand. if you let go, we'll bury you in the vegas sand quicker than you got her prego" - Don Martelli

LOL, it looks like a funeral. - Edgar Rodríguez

hahaa nice..yeah I also hope my 2 teen sons don't follow suit here either. - Rich Harris

He'd rather be playing hockey. - Jason Shultz via twhirl

@Jason, I imagine any teenager would rather be anywhere than sitting in the front row of the convention of either party. I feel sorry for them. - Trish R

@Cecily and @Don made this image perfect for me. - Steve Spalding

I wonder how many minutes it'll be before someone Photoshops a shotgun toting Sarah in behind this couple? - Robert Scoble

Campaign commercial, Robert? Lets see, um, family values? - Roberto Bonini

I think they just showed the kid those caribou and moose hunting photos of Sarah and he was ready to rush to the altar. - Andrew Leyden

Once again, you folks demonstrate that you don't even know how to respond to to Palin. As a Republican, I'm so happy to know that the only thing you can think of is to flail against her children. You're only helping my side! - Jim Ierley

"What? You're pregnant??? Ok, listen. Instead of me killing your right here & now. Just get married to the dude for few years, mumble some stuff about family values, and I'd even through a new Dodge pickup to the deal! how'bout that?" - Eyal Hertzog

that'll work out, long-term. those relationships always do, right? - सत्याग्रह [Bren]

Jim Lerley, this is a reaction to so many years of having "family values" and cutbacks in sex education and profilactic funding shoved in our faces by the religious right, er, the Republican Party. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/... is the way we should really respond, though. - Robert Scoble

Hello again, Robert... are you referring to the photoshopped Palin head on a chubby bikini woman on that page? Is that the right response? BTW, my last name starts with "I", not "L". - Jim Ierley

Well considering Obama was doing cocaine at 17...... - Spencer

@Jim Ierley - yeah because when Republicans are campaigning or commenting on the Dems..they never nit pick crap that doesn't matter, focusing on it and beating it into the ground farther than it needs to go....lewinsky? My making fun of Palin's crap is more to be silly...bottom line is...every human being has some stupid crap going on in their personal life, in their family..so in the end who cares...no one has the Beaver Cleaver family....even that family was jacked. :-) - Rich Harris

My point is that Palin is driving the Left insane. It hurts your cause in the same manner that Republicans went nutzo over Bill Clinton with those stupid conspiracy theories. GWB was able to beat you guys precisely because of Bush Derangement Syndrome, so I'm content to let you all repeat history. - Jim Ierley

Did I accidentally stumble on to DailyKos? - Brian Newman

It'll all be fun to watch in November....like UFC and South Park. - Rich Harris

Do you remember what Obama said about not getting the children involved? Well, I guess some of his supporters don't even want to pay attention to what he said. - Molly, the Merry Maker

my intention for posting this was not to ridicule the kids. it was just an observation. the blog linked to, raises a legit concern about the conduct of the adults in the GOP who have preached one thing and when the situation hits home, the tune changes. Does not mean others don't do the same but given their treatment of folks over the years..... - Ruth Ferguson

his "supporters" weren't the ones who placed her and her issues on stage and in front of the camera for the world to scrutinize - Cee Bee

No one is having any problems with the special needs baby being publicized or the son in the military being deployed to Iraq highlighted in a campaign speech. They are her children, too, and she is the one making sure the press continues to focus on them. - Trish R

I think his blazer is navy, not black, though it is a little difficult to tell on this monitor. - Mattb4rd

I find it hilarious that the rabid liberals are trying to tell the Republicans how to behave. As if it wasn't obvious enough that they don't know what they're talking about! It just shows how little effort people make to actually attempt to *understand* an opposing point of view; they're willing to float along in willful ignorance pretending to know what's best. - Glen Campbell
