Is Bristol Palin a Pinhead too?
Bill O’Reilly is no friend of permissive culture. He’s got no use for the drugs, the loose morals, the abortions or the media that glorified it. On Jamie Lynn Spears’ pregnancy, he had this to say:
Now most teens are pinheads in some ways. But here the blame falls primarily on the parents of the girl, who obviously have little control over her or even over Britney Spears. Look at the way she behaves.
I wonder, then, what Mr. O’Reilly thinks about 17-year-old Bristol Palin’s bun in the oven? Her mother, the Republican nominee for Vice President of the United States, ostensibly does everything “right” — she’s pro family, pro-life and a strong supporter of abstinence-only education in our schools.
Maybe permissive parenting isn’t always to blame. Maybe teaching abstinence as the only choice fails to educate human teens who will eventually get into situations that are hard to resist.
I will give credit where credit is due. Bristol is keeping her child and while I may disagree with Sarah Palin’s socially conservative agenda, at least she’s not a hypocrite.
