Sorry , the cat was out of the box when the media and the dems went after W. Bush's girls.

And as usual the left somehow wants to "forget" the treatment the Palin children got.

Should they be in the news, NO, unless it is something major.

The other side is that when politicians bring in their families for GOOD publicity they become fair game.

Sorry, that is the way it is.

The dems do this all the time.

They complain when the repubs do something, AFTER they have done it themselves and you KNOW they WILL do it again.

Look at the Supreme Court nominee story for one.

If you can't take it DON'T dish it out.

All you parents on here are FAILURES! Lol.
So, all this makes it OK?

I hope you don't, or ever will, have kids!

The press can be vicious. They were mean to Chelsea, even going so far as calling her ugly when she was twelve, they picked on the Bush girls, they picked on the Obama girls for not being respectful enough at a stupid turkey pardoning a few years ago...

I guess if we'd stop watching / buying / clicking they'd stop doing stuff like this. It really is tasteless to go after politicians families. They didn't choose to run for office.

Experimenting with pot and partying are normal behaviors for a teen.

I am absolutely certain most of us are so glad we didn't have press capturing our every move when we were 18.

They get paid a salary, so I don't think they got paid any more of your money that they always would.

You don't get my point.

Of course it's a non-issue. However, when has the MM, left or right ever dropped such a story within days?!

The same way you guys criminalized gay people with anti-sodomy laws?

The source said that Barack went into crisis mode after the “First Wild Child” had to be hauled out of a house party on Martha’s Vineyard — just before local cops went in for a raid!



Can't argue with him here... other than maybe he's a little late tightening up the reins a bit. But yeah - gotta deal with this.

Hopefully he did not frame the chastisement in terms of ruining things for him and his legacy.


Barry is a hypocrite. Did he tell her about his days in the "Choom gang"??

You don't care my butt.

Anti-sodomy laws were put in place in a dozen states by you conservatives. They were only declared unconstitutional in 2003 by the US Supreme Court. And every step of the way, you guys fought tooth and nail to keep those laws in place, including GWB.

Speaking of telling people what they can and cannot do in their personal lives, you conservatives are kings and queens at it.
