    Married at 17: trailor trash

    What kind of kid pregnant at 17 decides to keep the baby and get married? The issue isn't abortion--she could have given it up for adoption and pro-life people would have called her a heroine. A girl who decides to throw her life away like this, to raise a kid when she's in her teens--no college, no career--is junk.

    I'm amazed that an ostensibly middle class educated mama like Sarah Palin would tolerate this. It reflects adversely on her and on her family.
