Yeah I don't know how something as inconsequential as this gets so many people riled up or even attracts that many people into the thread. I've noticed that poll numbers have been really large lately. Either a lot of non registered users have decided to start voting or someone's been abusing the system.

I am sorry but I think you are wrong on this issue. This is not a coffee pot but an animal which is being used by a child as a stepping stool, something animals are not meant to be used as. And you say the dog would be the first to tell the child if he was in discomfort? Well, usually that would be a bit or growling, something that is very bad with a child that is a special needs child and usually the dog would get the blame.

And what kind of insane statement is that? Obviously the dog would not get out of the way of the child who was determined to help with the dishes? Are you for real? So that means you just step on the dog? What if it had been a cat or another little child who was not getting out of the way? The alternative for not having a stepping stool is not using a dog for a stepping stool.

A child of his age could way as much as about 50 pounds which is a lot of weight if it stands on you (being a dog that might weigh about the same).

Also, this is not a "regular" child because it is a special needs child and he should have been told immediately to get off the dog and that he should never do it, it is not a photo op.

What if what if what if...............

Here's a picture posted on Ellen DeGeneres Show Facebook page from her show album and as of July 1, 2014 it received 262,948 "likes".




We have no way of knowing if this child is mentally impaired but at least Palin's son was barefoot. PETA didn't comment in outrage over this picture nor did it even make the news.
That's the difference between having the last name Palin versus DeGeneres.

Re: Sarah Palin Posts Photos of Son Trig Using Family Dog as a Step Stool

Typical response.

It's boring. She thinks she's being clever, I guess. It would have been better if she got smarmy about mentioning how healthy and happy the dog is, and how Trig is the bomb, and will soon be cooking moose chili in a beaver skin hat while standing on his Uncle Tripp.

Yet it is a child using a dog as a step ladder posted on Ellen DeGeneres Show album and received almost 293,000 likes almost 6 months to the day. And NO ONE started writing articles of outrage over the picture. Why? Because Ellen's last name isn't Palin.

I wouldn't allow a child to stand on a dog, pull its ears, tail or do anything else that kids often do to animals. But I think the double standards need to be addressed.

You are absolutely correct. Palin has entered the Kardashian Zone. Once you enter the Karashian Zone it is virtually impossible to exit it.
Nobody would ever take a Kardashian sister serious even if she buckled down and obtained a PhD in molecular biology.
Like it or not Palin has made a fool out of herself with publicity stunts she is forever in that Zone.

You expect there will be more stupid stunts by the Palin family and they won't disappoint you.

i admire her in a way
for someone with so little going for her she made a mark
of course, if she had studied a wee bit more she might even be able to write her name, instead
but she has good political instincts and massive ambition. and it's paid off for her ... financially, at least
from little wasilla basketball player with no wealth or connections to state governor to national vp candidate is quite a personal climb
and she is willing to do whatever it takes to preserves her final moments of fame ... while simultaneously soliciting some income for her efforts
she became and remains the figurehead of the fading tea party movement
while mocked by many she is admired by some of us for making much out of so little

She created the schtick, she signed on for the publicity, she milked it for all she could.

For her to be indignant, is hypocrisy, she created the image she flogs, good and bad....she takes the money, she better be prepared to take the criticism.

But...but...that's different! Ellen is gaaaaaaaaaaaay! And, anyone criticizing her is a homophobe, unless she mistakes a black person for a waiter. Race trumps sexual orientation.

She's kind of like that guy Rush Limbaugh, say or do something you think will inflame people, and sit back and watch people implode or react over it, it's kind of like trolling. She might have mastered it when she called Obama a terrorist.

Gosh, I hope she runs for prez this time, or even better would be for a republican to pick her for vp.

Because if there was no name associated with the photo most people wouldn't give two ****s about it.Those who are giving a **** about this photo do so out of their extreme unhealthy hatred for Sarah Palin.

Dogs are not stepping stools and even special needs children need to be taught that this is not the thing to do with pets.

Children do all sorts of things to dogs.They try to ride them like horses, pull them by their tail or ears,give them candy, eat the dog's food and all sorts of other **** they shouldn't. If the dog was hurt by the child the dog will let the child know.

Very good point.

I think she lives up to that old adage of "give em what they want". The timing was just right for someone like her at that time when the Tea Party surfaced.
All of this was obtainable with Sen McCain bringing her into the main stage. I don't really think she could have obtain any of this without him.

In that same light I think one could say the Kardashians are filling that role of "give em what they want" . This family has no talent but can't help but become pseudo celebs.

The Kardashians and Palins are like that car wreck along the interstate that you pass by. You know it is going to be ugly but you just gotta slow down and twist your neck to see it.

That is just nonsensical to the extreme.

1. if this would have been from a nobody it most likely would not have made the media but if the child of Obama had done this, the child of Brad Pitt/Jolie would have done this it would have been just as big an issue for most people, just as big an issue as it is from Palin.

2. you are totally lying when you are saying that only people who hate Palin would give a crap about this photo, I do not hate Palin but I give a crap about this picture and many people feel the same way.

Maybe it is the other way around, only people who love Palin are stating that this photo is not an issue because out of a misplaced love/respect for Palin they are justifying or making this less of an issue because of Palin, not because of what has happened on these pictures.

Well, stepping on a dog is unacceptable. Riding on dogs is most often not the right thing to do, pulling of tails, giving them people's candy/chocolate etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. is not the right thing. Just because you think Palin is being attacked for who she is rather than what her child did, does not mean that what her child did was right or what you state is what children do to animals.

Children should be taught not to pull ears, tails, give them candy and all other bad things do to pets, it does not need to be minimized because you like Palin.

Palin might be the greatest woman on earth to you, but that does not mean that this is acceptable behavior.

If someone like Wim Kok, a man who I respect greatly as a great leader and politician would have posted something like this on facebook I would have crucified/been very negative towards him.

This is not a political issue about Palin, this is an animal welfare issue and nothing more.

I greatly prefer to see the scenario swapped around. Dogs standing on people.

Thank you for that post as it is a wonderful example of liberal outrage. For it is always aimed at the conservative individual, and never at the act that they supposedly found so outrageous. In fact most of the things they pick to have such faux outrage over, they themselves couldn't pass the same standards they demand of the one they have targeted. If your name is Sarah Palin and your daughter has an out of wedlock baby, she is a slut...a whore, and Palin is a terrible mother. But let the same happen to a liberal politician and it is no big deal. Have one of Sarah's kids get into trouble while drinking too much beer at a party and it is played over and over again in the news but at the same time her kids show bad behavior, the Vice President's 40 year old son gets busted in the Navy for cocaine use and it is a non-issue. Sarah Palin's email account gets hacked and personal information is spewed all over the news and Palin haters loved it and met each morsel with faux outrage. But the one who hacked her account was the son of a liberal Democratic congressman. Were they outraged over his illegal behavior? Hell no. While the left was trying to push a story that McCain had fathered a black child, the left liberal John Edwards was running for president and actually did father a child through an affair he was having while his wife was dying of cancer. The media all knew, did they cover it? No. The story was broke by a tabloid.

So this Kardashian Zone you claim Palin is in, is of the left media who have promoted it with their double standards. Why have a single standard for all when double standards are so much more fun!
