This image, taken from Michelle Malkin's blog illustrates, perfectly, the difference between how Republicans and Democrats view pregnancies.
To Republicans, a pregnancy, no matter the circumstances, is a blessing.
To Democrats pregnancy is a curse.
Malkin goes on to quote Palin and Obama to further show the contrast.
Quoting Palin on her daughter's situation,
“We have been blessed with five wonderful children who we love with all our heart and mean everything to us. Our beautiful daughter Bristol came to us with news that as parents we knew would make her grow up faster than we had ever planned. We’re proud of Bristol’s decision to have her baby and even prouder to become grandparents. As Bristol faces the responsibilities of adulthood, she knows she has our unconditional love and support.
“Bristol and the young man she will marry are going to realize very quickly the difficulties of raising a child, which is why they will have the love and support of our entire family. We ask the media to respect our daughter and Levi’s privacy as has always been the tradition of children of candidates.”
Quoting Obama on the possible pregnancy of his daughters,
“Look, I got two daughters — 9 years old and 6 years old,” he said. “I am going to teach them first about values and morals, but if they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby. I don’t want them punished with an STD at age 16, so it doesn’t make sense to not give them information.”
Punishment or Blessing?
