Can anyone explain to me what the point is of alleging Sarah Palin has taken a leaf out of Bree from Desperate Housewives book? Even if it were proven to be true I mean. If I had a vote in the US presidential election I would be using it for Obama, but I don't really see how Palin comes out of this particular story looking particularly bad either way. While dragging a sixteen year old into their parents' political story more than is inevitable is generally considered a bit shitty, no?
Incidentally, the (until-recently assumed) fact that Palin had a Downs child was said to be evidence of just how strongly against abortion she is. As I understand it, her views are indeed as strong as they get, but that particular point seems slightly dodgy logic to me. Surely being pro-choice doesn't require you to abort your fetus when you find out it has Downs...
