You mean someone who isn't pro choice, though I'm not sure what that has to do with giving a kid a stupid name.

And YOU claim to be pro choice, so I guess that excludes you from being "someone who doesn't believe in abortion for convenience"....

 This appears an attempt of hers to get back to portraying herself in a family/motherly setting with a bit of controversy to make her newsworthy again.

What divorce? Post a link. Let's see some proof.

I would agree that not too much has to be made of this, if Palin warned the child that he should not do that, because teaching children to correctly treat animals is very important. Especially for a special needs child.

I also think it would not have been such a lighting rod if Palin had not used this as a lesson/plan for the year 2015.

And I am still left with one question, was Palin lucky enough to photograph this (in other words, was she photographing the child already) or did she stage this after the fact to have photo's of what the child did (in other words was the dog stepped on twice, once because of the child's spontaneous actions or did he do it and then told to do it again so that Palin could take pictures of it).

Why don't you contact Palin and ask her?

Then you can post her response on this thread.

I believe in everyone having free choice and I particularly respect those, like Sarah Palin, who make the unselfish, human choice. You erroneously believe that pro-choice by definition means pro-abortion in all its forms. It doesn't.

Sarah Palin Posts Photos of Son Trig Using Family Dog as a Step Stool - Kids & Family Life, Pet News, Sarah Palin : People.com


Pic is at the link (which I'll include). So why put this in Polls? I'm curious if the story, to put it bluntly, pisses you off because I gotta admit, as an animal fan, most especially dogs, it kinda pisses me off. Not at the kid, of course, but I know, if it were me, I'd teach my kid to not stand on the family dog.

Sorry about the weird font and sizing. It did something weird when I copied the quote.

Attaching poll.

I can fully understand the progressive's need to obsess over every petty thing that comes out of the Palin household. If my hero of the day had run the country into the ground as badly as has Obama, I too would be grasping at the limp straw of the activities of a failed presidential candidate from six years ago and who has not one iota of control of any public funds. it is whistling past the graveyard, making a a demon to hide the fact the demon has already destroyed the country with a goal of $24 trillion in debt and a steady flow of illegals.

This should answer your question.

‘Gimme a break

scroll down a bit and you'll see that there was a pic taken while Trig was in the process of stepping on the dog.

It's no biggie, but I'd lift the boy off and explain he shouldn't do that. Going to get a camera and posting the picture seems like an odd way to handle it.
The boy did learn something.

Yes, he learned when something is smaller and weaker and it's in your way, step on it. Kid's on his way to making a fine Republican. :lol:

Of course, I'm joking.

Well, I haven't read this entire thread but I think it is more the mother that is getting the blame, because the child is as said special needs and cannot be held accountable for that and bringing it in the media is entirely down to the mother, not the child.

I think that question could much better come from someone who lives in the USA and is a registered republican.

I know there were pictures taken, I saw them. But were those pictures of the fluke action of the child getting on the dog in the first place or were they pictures taken by Palin to recreate the event.

That's what I was wondering. Mostly all I saw was alot of people saying that clearly the child doesn't know any better, and that using this as a learning experience, and not a photo op, should have fallen on the parents.

Thank you and no offense taken if you like it. :mrgreen:

It was just too nice of a set up to not take it.

All of her children have names that are a little odd. But that, again, would fall on the parents and not the child.
 
Re: Sarah Palin Posts Photos of Son Trig Using Family Dog as a Step Stool

Palin could post a picture of her coffee pot and someone would find something wrong with it. Maybe even start a thread over it.
That dog would be the first to tell the child if he was in discomfort. Evidently the dog would not get out of the child's way who was determined to help with dishes. I imagine if the dog wasn't laying there, the child would have dragged a chair from the kitchen table to the sink.

I have seen kids do a lot of things to animals that were not especially kind and they learned quickly what is acceptable and what isn't. If at anytime that animal felt discomfort, it would have let the child know.

I've known several dog owners, some pretty big dogs confined to cages for most of their life while the owner is at work. And then again at night. They have to go to the bathroom they have to deficate in their cage if they can't wait for dear master to get home in time to let them out. Cause we can't have dear doggie taking a crap or peeing somewhere in the house. And if they are lucky the master will actually take them for a walk before returning them to the "cage". That's animal abuse in my book.

Then you have those who dress their little pooches up in clothes. It's one thing to put a sweater on them to go outside when it is cold. It is altogether something else to dress them up in costumes on a daily basis. That's animal abuse in my book.

Then you could make the case that cutting the balls off a dog or cat, or spading a female is rather abusive too. ;)

You are saying that she knew that brain dead Sarah Palin haters would react the way they did so that conservatives can make fun of them for being brain dead Sarah Palin haters? I think you are seeing something that isn't there.She has no hopes of winning any other election.She threw those dreams away when she quit being governor of Alaska over lib-tards saying mean things about her.
 
Re: Sarah Palin Posts Photos of Son Trig Using Family Dog as a Step Stool

Do I think that having the kid stand on the dog is a good idea? No. Do I think that public figures need to think about what they post? Yes. But it surely doesn't piss me off
