Bristol Palin outraged over girls receiving free birth control
Ana Kasparian had this article in Raw Story today;
Youd think that someone who had her first child as a teenager and then managed to get pregnant again by someone else out of wedlock would be a staunch supporter of birth control. But Bristol Palin never ceases to amaze the public with her ill-advised blog of buffoonery, where lessons are rarely learned.
In her latest nonsensical rant, Palin targets the contraception policy in Washington state, which gives all girls free access to long term reversible birth control like IUDs. Since Washington and 25 other states dont require parental consent in the matter, Palin is outraged that girls between the ages of 10 to 20 can get an IUD without their parents knowing.
Do you remember what it was like to be a 10 year old? I remember being an unabashed tomboy concerned with playing outside and acing 5th grade, Palin wrote. But life isnt so innocent and carefree for some 10 years old in Washington State.
Bristol Palin everyone! The expert on childhood innocence!

Absurd. I also doubt "unabashed" creeps into her vocabulary regularly. What an ass. n/t

Samuel Clemens would've died of shame if he had seen the Palins.

If it wasn't for him and his dumbass move of picking Princess Dumb Fuck of the North Woods as his running mate the Palins would not have been as well known as they are now.

They believe they have a sacred duty to outbreed the nasty black and brown people in order to make America "great" (ie white) again.
