Sarah Palin's 17 year-old daughter becoming pregnant becomes a moral issue not because you, I and the Democrats make it a moral issue.

It becomes a moral issue becuase the Republicans have always made it a moral issue.

It becomes a moral issue not because that 17 year-old's getting pregnant is going to make any difference in your lives or mine. It becomes a moral issue because it reeks of hypocrisy within the Republican party.

The Republicans can't get tired of blaming the 17 year-old black girls in the south side of Chicago or New York's Harlem for getting pregnant during teens.

And when Palin's daughter does the same thing as those black girls, suddenly she becomes unreproachable.

Those who have raised Palin's daughter's pregnancy as an issue are not saying the family should not support her. They are not saying it should be an election year political issue. They are talking about it because McCain's campain made it an issue -- by releasing a press statement saying that the girl is pregnant.

Why did McCain's campaign thing that you, I and the all the sundry had to know who is pregnant and who is not?
