Oh, so I should take their accusations that Sarah Palin had an affair with her hubby's business partner seriously?

Perhaps he should have made it private before his girlfriends mother was going to run for VP, but he didn't. Perhaps he should have put omg I'm going to be a daddy, I'm so excited! But he didn't. I don't see anything wrong with a seemingly typical MySpace page for an 18 year old boy/man regardless of his impending fatherhood.

Oh noes! This kid has an immature MySpace page! Let's all judge him and his babymama via their MySpace page for choices her mother is making. It's not like any of us have experience with being judged or ridiculed or having the wrong person see something on the internet.

Really people. Who the fvck cares what he has on his fvcking MySpace. Seriously.

Oh wait.

What percentage of males at 18 said I'm ready to have kids. Maybe he didn't think to change it. How often do you update your MySpace page so it's 100% accurate all the time.

Oh, I missed this one. Really, I could give a shyt- I don't even have a Myspace page, so I am unaware of the mechanics of the site and thought it was like LJ where you have to actually type something like that in for it to show. Still, he's gonna be a daddy here real quick, so maybe he needs to clean it up a bit. People get fired from their jobs for less.

I just caught two episodes of West Wing on Bravo. It was the two that take place at the Democratic National Convention - where Santos becomes the nominee. Very topical.

I miss that show. It was so cool.

I certainly don't care that an 18 year old said he didn't want kids, and I don't especially care that he said what he said on a My Space page as opposed to in a bar or to a hooker or anywhere.

I half wonder if he said it at all. It almost sounds like it could have been written as part of the campaign to paint the election as a Lifeboat-style choice between well-mannered f*gs and rough and ready (Christian) hellraisers. If McCain and Palin are asked to comment on what he said, I assume they'll praise it and call for the appointment of judges who will hold statutes criminalizing asskicking unconstitutional except when done by black people.
