Sarah Palin's 17-year old daughter is five months pregnant. This is not a secret. It's on page one of the New York Times.
Personally, I think such things are, well, personal. Every family has its dramas. Yours does, too.
And as a gay person, I think it's extremely dangerous to start being judgmental about somebody else's sex life.
But that's not what this story is about. It's about the hypocrisy of the Christian right, the danger of opposing abortion when young lives are ruined and unwanted babies are born.
And most of all it's about the now questionable competence of John McCain, who chose Sarah Palin without adequate background investigation.
What was he thinking? Or wasn't he thinking at all?

Bob, another thing related to this issue in the media in the US, is the fact that Palin backed abstinence-only education. What do you think of that?
