  • Palin Teenage Pregancy.

    What no one is considering here is the possibility that this young girl could have been coerced/pressured by her boyfriend into having unprotected sex. She also could have been raped/incested. And given her mother's zero tolerance stance on abortion, that would mean that the possibility exists that this young girl is being forced by her mother to ...

  • Bristol's Pregnancy is Not the Issue

    I don't question Bristol or the decision to keep the baby. I wish Bristol and her baby the best. God bless and godspeed. What I do question is abstinence-only as public policy.
