Lindsay Lohan’s latest MySpace blog?
Is about Bristol Palin, of course.
THERE IS NO OTHER NEWS THIS WEEK.
I’ve been watching the news all morning, like everyone else – and i keep hearing about the issues related to ‘teen pregnancy’- It’s all related to Sarah Palin and her 17 year old unmarried pregnant daughter. Well, I think the real problem comes from the fact that we are taking the focus off of getting to know Sarah Palin and her political views, and what she can do to make our country a less destructive place. Its distracting from the real issues, the real everyday problems that this country experiences.
I am concerned with the fact that Sarah Palin brought the attention to her daughter’s pregnancy, rather than all world issues and what she believes she could possibly do to change them-if elected. I get Sarah Palin’s views against abortion, but i would much prefer to hear more about what she can do for our country rather than how her daughter is going to have a child no matter what.
Maybe focus on delivering some words and policy with stronger impact like Joe Biden.
See below for Barack Obama’s thoughts:
From Alexander Marquardt
CNN
MONROE, Michigan (CNN) — Sen. Barack Obama said firmly that families are off-limits in the campaign for president, reacting to news that GOP running mate Sarah Palin’s 17-year-old daughter is pregnant.“Let me be as clear as possible,” Obama said. “I think people’s families are off-limits, and people’s children are especially off-limits. This shouldn’t be part of our politics. It has no relevance to Gov. Palin’s performance as governor or her potential performance as a vice president.”
Obama said reporters should “back off these kinds of stories” and noted that he was born to an 18-year-old mother.
“How a family deals with issues and teenage children, that shouldn’t be the topic of our politics, and I hope that anybody who is supporting me understands that’s off-limits.” »
On another note-the last note- i heard a woman say on TODAY on NBC that teens are feeling as if they have to grow up faster. Really? Because, i think that girls that are CHOOSING to be sexually active and are making a conscious decision to grow up faster….. I think that parents need to recognize how important it is to talk to their children about the things that can result from being sexually active if they aren’t protecting themselves (birth control, condoms, etc.)
So-those are my thoughts for the day. Enjoy the music :) xoxo
OMG.
Lindsay Lohan knows who Joe Biden is.
My head just exploded a little.
Thanks Anna!
of course most teen girls today are CHOOSING to be sexually active, did lindsay think that the woman on NBC thought that girls just unconsciously start having sex??? and yeah most teens do feel the need to begin sexually active, drink ect to feel more grown up. teens naturally want to become more independent and learn to make decisions for themselves but most think that becoming independent is synonymous with becoming an adult. look at todays pop culture! music, movies, and tv shows(gossip girl, the secret life of the american teenager) aimed at teens talk about sex so casually, which of course may get teens thinking ”hey, if everyone else is doing it, maybe i should be doing it too.” most of the time entertainment is the only way teens learn anything about sexuality because a) their parents dont talk to them about or b) they just feel they dont need to talk to their parents about it or take anything their parents say seriously. this is why i dont believe in abstinence sex ed, because the truth is teens ARE going to have sex and a lot of times irresponsibly, like Palin’s daughter is a perfect example of. i personally believe in abstinence because i think sex is really special and shouldn’t be wasted but obviously today its seen as something casual and theres not much anyone can do about it. but as far as teen sex goes there still is hope that teens can be taught to be responsible sexually.
first of all I gotta have proof that she writes it herself
as for sex
it’s something you do
no one wants to make it a special issue nowadays
something to be remembered
people are more into trying and comparing
let’s try this one now and see how he/she performs
hence the problems, the diseases, the surprise embryo
Dear Skye,
It says “Leave a Reply” not “Leave Every Fucking word you know!”
I think that Lindsay’s response is more coherent and humane than about 99% of the people I’m hearing speak. Good for her.
I agree with mambaX. This sounds like it was written by a publicist. If not, then LL has her head together better than I thought.
Can you not use this same picture over and over, it’s ugly.
all the lindsay lohan news has been so good recently. please don’t go back to snorting coke off the bathroom floor at the palms. trying your best to be a grown-up is good enough for me.
I agree with bsm it’s a good time for Linds.
I think teens have always been active. In the older days, they got married at 15 and 16, and had babies. Who knows which was first, but they were married younger then. Then in the sexual revolution days, teens were having sex, and just using more birth control. But still yet, many many were having babies at 17 and 18.
So it is really the same old story, only population is much larger, makes the problem seem bigger.
But now, it is blown up, because they should know better by now, what makes a baby and how to prevent it.
I like Lindsay more and more everyday. First lesbianism and now intellectual (and realistic) beliefs/thoughts about teen pregnancy and politics. Good job, Linds.
Funny, in the 1950’s hardly anyone had sex before marriage even though there was no birth control or sex education. Now it seems like everyone over the age of 14 has had every kind of sex there is so maybe there is just too much info out there for kids to properly process. Too much trash on the tv, in the movies, people like Lindsay setting a bad example and getting rewarded for it and too many parents who have just throw their hands up and caved in. Maybe the answer is for women to quit their jobs and stay home like they did in the 50’s so they can focus of the kids. Palin should have done that.
It’s very obvious that Lindsay didn’t write that herself. The girl can barely form a complete sentence. Did she even graduate from high school? I highly doubt it. And, how can she claim to know anything about politics when all she does is shop, eat at restaurants, and parade around L.A. with her girlfriend?
Oh really? And how the hell would some “Anonymous” know ANYTHING about that? Let’s just face it, we’ll never know wether or not she wrote that by herself. Peeeeriod.
However, if she wrote that by herself i’m impressed, she’s defienetly intelligent for her age.
ha ha ha! I was sort of undecided until NOW!
But if Lindsay Lohan sees something or someone as ‘bad’ then it MUST be “good”!
If she thinks McCain/Palin are bad for the country, then they MUST be good for the country!
The most astounding thing about her post – I never knew she was capable of writing or thinking past the 3rd grade level.
I’ve never seen or heard anything to make me think Lindsay is unable to write coherently. She can make dumb choices and still be able to put a sentence together. Geez, proper spelling goes a long way.
@slammed: At least you realize there’s something wrong in what you’re saying. The fifties weren’t some great idyllic time when families were perfect. The rampant abuse and alcoholism were just much better hidden. People who think the world is going to hell simply weren’t around in the “good old days”. If a girl got pregnant it was quietly taken care of, not made into a political statement. I’m not saying you don’t have a point with today’s oversexualized media, but saying we should go back to the fifties is not the answer. And if you think women are going to go back to the kitchen and have babies all day you’re a moron. I like my career, thanks.
