As long as it is being allowed the pack mentality prevails. Children should not be talked about like they are have been and continue to be. It does not matter that the kids will be able to read what is said. Who cares anonymity right!
I agree with you, Miborn! It also should follow that the parents make the children a little more anonymous.
Well, I would point out that all of us who have been participating in this thread are guilty.
I think most of the criticism has been about her mother. Frankly, while I think (and posted) that moms tend to be d***** if we do and if we don't, I think some of Sarah's decisions were inappropriate.
Picking on the mother is fine- but picking on Piper for wearing her mother's shoes and criticizing her for answering in her interview with "Yeah" rather than run on sentences like her mother is wrong.
For the 100th time, I'll say that Sarah is a wealth of ammunition to criticize. Nobody needs to resort to making fun of her children.
I'm sure that all the candidates kid's get behind when their parents are on the campaign trail. Who cares? Sounds like the tolerant leftist bunch just can't help but hate someone.
Attacking children is simply below contempt. I have lost whatever little respect I might have once had for HuffPost and the Obamabums. It's one thing to slander Palin, and it's a whole other thing to sling mud at her children. Whoever wrote this article is a dirt bag and anyone involved in spreading this is equally guilty.
Huffington Post again. Palin REALLY scares you guys, doesn't she? Otherwise you wouldn't be posting this stuff STILL.
Yeah, she does. She should scare you too. Someone that dumb, divisive (first speech to the US insulted Community Organizers and anyone not from a small town) and abusive of power being that close to the presidency is a very scary thought. She's clearly a bad mother, her son was known as "The bad boy of Wasilla" and was shipped off to Iraq to "become a man". The next in line got pregnant in HS (probably twice with the DS baby being born while the girl was on a mysterious 6 month leave from school) and dropped out. Now we hear that another child is flunking. Seriously, if she can't even raise her own kids, how can she be a good leader?
Clinton and his wife were quite busy, but Chelsea went to Stanford. Even one of the Bush daughters was a good student at Yale.

I do not disagree. Not everyone who had posted prior to your post criticized the kids.

You should be ashamed.
All the article does is quote Piper telling Matt Lauer that she missed a lot of school. That is the same thing that was shown on the "Today" show. It might be better to question why Sarah and Todd allowed the "Today" show into their house with cameras, to interview them and their children.
