(Fast forward to 2:22 before Sally begins knawing her own well turned heel, bathes lavishly in her title of "Liberal Elite Media", reminds us that her husband was the editor of The Washington Post and that she too, had a "learning disabled child" (as if). Only then does she stoop to call Bristol Palin (but for being on the wrong side of Feminist dogma) "a seventeen year old child".
Let's get something straight, Ms. Quinn. You would be nothing but a second rate Georgetown, Martha Stewart cocktail circuit hack if not for your husband--much the same as another Post Modern Feminist and Presidential wannabe we must all suffer.
As if placing blame for women's opression squarely on the shoulders of men wasn't enough, you have to grind your Jimmy Choos into their clavicles to reach your own brass ring. Wouldn't Susan B. Anthony be so proud?
Many in your coven believe that the age for abortion on demand without parental consent should be as young as fourteen, only to patronize Bristol as "a seventeen year old CHILD" when it provides convenient cover for keeping the only Authentic Feminist in this race chained to her stove.
But how can this be? Which is it, Ms.Quinn? Is Bristol Palin, or is she not, old enough to choose to carry her baby and not be a burden to her ambitious mother? If she wanted an abortion, say, if she were Chelsea Clinton, she would be termed "a seventeen year old young woman" plenty old enough to exercise her "choice" and conveniently uncoupled from her mother's sphere of responsibility.
Choice, Ms.Quinn, true individual liberty, is not summarily dictated by any National Organization, but exercised after the rational consideration of personal problems, priorities and possibilities.
Great analysis, Janie!!

A 17 year old in not an adult. That is a fact. I think it is great that Bristol Palin has a supportive family for her child. But I think was more needs to be done to make sure teenage girls (yes girls) have access to birth control information & choices about their lives.
[JANE SAYS: You are correct, 17 IS a CHILD. And even if she was a Liberal, she would STILL be too young to cross state lines and commit infanticide without parental permission.
And I DO support CHOICE, honey---BEFORE THE ACT, NOT AFTER THE FACT.
Abstinence works 200% of the times it is tried---"birth control information and choices about their lives" MY ASS.
What part of this post did you miss, Little Miss Brain Trust?
What the INTELLECTUALLY DOSHONEST COVEN OF WITCHES at the NOW refuse to answer is WHY CHELSEA CLINTON would have been PLENTY OLD ENOUGH (at seventeen)TO CHOOSE TO COMIMT INFANTICIDE, but Bristol Palin is sooooo young as to still have to be an albatross around the neck of her ambitious (but Conservative) mother.
Sarah Palin shames the Gender Baiting Whores at the NOW because she ISN'T one of them, and SHE WILL BE THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
DEAL WITH IT. ANd if you are an AUTHENTIC Feminist, like myself, you will celebrate that inevitability.
