I really don't either. My judgment of Bristol Palin's boyfriend is that he left
her after making the baby. I don't think men should be exempt from taking
responsibility for their actions either.

Same here.

Exactly.

Bingo.

Exactly right. They claim it is about love, but in reality it is about
entitlement.

 TR> It has nothing whatever to do with `equal rights'. Its about MONEY!

It always comes down to money.

 TR> Teenage pregnancy is the responsibility of the girl's parents. Parents of
a

age

That should be up to the parents.

It should be the responsibility of the girls parents. Morality is the business
of the church.

 EH>> Apparently the thought of teens having sex excites him.

It certainly seems that way.

Of course. And if is had been the teen daughter of Obama, it would have been
even more so.
