Sarah Palin: A Morally Sloppy Person



This "morally sloppy" woman, who is admired by the evangelical Christian right, gave her blessing and endorsement to Donald Trump. And he happily accepted it, which shows how shallow and fraudulent those who pretend Sarah Palin and Donald Trump represent " Christian family values" are.

It is strikingly evident to anyone with a moral compass that, compared with the evangelical Christian right's heroes, Palin and Trump, the Obama family is far and away better at parenting than Palin would ever hope to be, and the Obamas are a far better model of marital fidelity and devotion than Trump is. 

IOW, it is Barack and Michelle Obama who are the models of decent family values. Compare them to the brawling, messy Palins and Donald Trump's three marriages, the last to a center-fold model. (Not that there's anything wrong with that, but can you imagine the evangelicals' outrage if Michelle Obama had posed semi-nude then had the temerity to become America's FLOTUS?) They popped their corks when Michelle bared her arms but seem to be oh so tolerant with Melania baring her ta-tas and hoo-ha.

It shows, again, how the so-called "family values" right is not about family values at all, but all about political expediency and alliances to further their agendas.  They value morally sloppy candidates over the real deal.

Speaking of morally sloppy

... and the Teabags will still demand that Planned Parenthood lose funding.
I don't expect this to get big coverage in the "leftist media".

Ducky, I was watching lefty news last night and saw an extended piece on this...

What we probably won't see on leftist news site are reports coupled with the government conspiracy theories about why the indictment was handed down...

I have nothing against center-fold models. A moan is better than a screech.

Palin is a morally repugnant human being.

You're being copied and pasted again over at the Stench Trench Shaw.

FreeThinke finally made the move to a "team members" only blog. Guess he prefers an echo chamber and a well trained choir over honest discussion. And he calls himself FreeThinke.

I'm with Octo on the centerfold thing.

And in a recent WAPO poll, Palin is admired by almost 60% of Republican voters...

That says a lot...

Then why are liberals writing about her everyday as if she is running for president?

Anonymouse,
Why are all news outlets writing about the Zika virus?

Because we love that the GOP finds someone so empty headed so wonderful. The thought that someone with no ability to put together a cogent sentence round be a VP running mate is incredible.

Anon @11:20 AM,

People write about Palin because she's made herself a news item by endorsing Trump, who is NOT an evangelical, but who will get a lot of support from them because this morally sloppy woman endorsed him instead of Ted Cruz, who actually IS an evangelical Christian.

Palin is an obvious hypocrite, selling herself to whoever will get her the most attention.

"You're being copied and pasted again over at the Stench Trench Shaw."

I've been aware for a long, long time that almost everything I write or my commenters write gets copied and pasted at the Smut Hut/Stench Trench/Skank Tank/Shit Pit under fake names or some version of my blognym. Also the little dickens do this on other rabid right wing blogs as well. They're devoted readers of my blog, and my ideas and opinions get published without my having to sully myself by going there.

They are really adorable little nut muffins, aren't they?

Those "Family values" people support celebrities (which is what their politicians are) who have had messy adulterous affairs. And condemn the first lady for wearing sleeveless dresses or wanting children to eat healthily.

But for the most part they are also "Christian values" people whose values are the opposite of those the Bible shows Jesus Christ to have.
