From NPR:

Obama: Leave Bristol Alone

Barack Obama was asked in a news conference today about Sarah Palin’s teenage daughter’s pregnancy. Via NPR’s Don Gonyea:

Obama said the media should back off the story, and that it has no bearing on Palin’s performance as Governor of Alaska or what kind of Vice President she would be. He denies anyone in his campaign is responsible for spreading rumors about Palin, and adds that anyone caught doing so would be fired.
Obama told reporters, “people’s families are off limits, and people’s children are especially off limits.”

    The pro-lifer have to be swooning over this, what is it, no contraception, absolutely no abortion and then if you get pregnant you deal with it…as an adult?

    The pictures of Bristol holding Trig with a blanket and her watching the big screen…as the sister has this look on her face…as if Willow is thinking I can not believe this.

    This is nothing new is it, a familiar America story, the story gets told over and over and it nothing new, she is going to marry the father whose name is Levi, then Palin says she will now have to grow up faster.
