Wendy Davis: Bristol Palin's Parenting Diss 'Not True'

CATHERINE THOMPSON – JANUARY 28, 2014, 12:08 PM EST

Texas state Sen. Wendy Davis (D) said Monday that she is "very proud" of the job that she's done as a mother after the daughter of former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, Bristol, accused her of being a bad parent.

Fusion's Jorge Ramos asked Davis to respond to Palin's tweet linking to a blog post she wrote that characterized Davis as a woman "whose ambition and ego were so big she couldn’t have both a career and kids at the same time:"

Gosh, children are sooo inconvenient, huh? I’m glad my mother didn’t put motherhood on the shelf when she was elected to City Council, then became our mayor, then Governor. Oh sorry – I mentioned my mother… Have you liberals gone into a tail spin of hate already? Did I lose you?

I know you would rather think about Wendy Davis, so let’s get back to her. She’s more your type of woman. She left her kid, husband, made it into a false “made-for-tv-movie-type-tale” and then demanded that Texans have the right to kill babies. That’s the woman you libs can really get behind!

group of mongrels that have ever plagued America. They wear their ignorance with the pride of the typical serial killer who gloats over their genius in killing innocent children or unsuspecting and trusting people who have never harmed another soul. I didn't believe, until I read this piece, that hate, vitriolic behavior, and stupidity could be genetic traits.
