Liberals Don't Get the Palin Difference

Posted by: Mike Spence | 09/03/2008 1:10 PM

 

The headlines were unbelievable. "Conservatives Mixed On Palin". This all over the revelations about her daughter's pregnancy and her husband's drunk driving charge.

Liberals think they know more than all of us and assume that conservatives must think like they do, but are wrong on issues.

The difference is and the Palin difference will be is that we know what we would like everything to be like, but realize it doesn't always work out that way. In short we aren't perfect families, but we are American families. 

In every church of any size, including mine there are people that fall short. There are pregnancies, drunken driving, drug abuse and other family problems of more severe or less degree. The difference we try to be better personally, not better than everyone else.

The other difference is religious conservatives believe in redemption. You can free your self from these problems repent and move on.

Liberals just don't get that and that is the difference.

If they thought logically . . . . they wouldn't be liberals . . . .

The issue is that the Neocon idiots were all trashing everybody for having a complete lack of family values, berated Jamie Lynn Spears for getting pregnant, then their holy grail of hope for 2016 has a defect...she's just like the Democrats.

It's not the liberals, it's called turnabout...when you hold others to an unfair standard, you wreap what you sow. In this case it's criticism for chosing a candidate that noone has met.
