    The Boyfriend - Redux

    The "Boyfriend" (father of the child), is a freaking douche bag. I feel so sad for Bristol Palin and actually angry that she is going to get "married" to this turd. I hope to God that her mom is just "saying that" to appease people who this might matter to, but is carefully planning for the marriage to fall through at some other later date.

    I still can't get over the fact that if John McCain isn't lying, then Bristol's mom knew that she was pregnant and still accepted the nod, even knowing how it was going to utterly devastate her daughters life. This woman is either an evil vindictive bitch ("How dare you get pregnant!") or one of the most narcissistic "mothers" (mother "something" for sure!) that have ever existed.

    This is just such an evil, shitty, douche-tastic situation that I can't even experience any schadenfreude at John McCain's ill-fortune. Maybe this is what makes me a "pussy liberal", but I honestly feel really sad for that poor girl.
