Isn't that Special?

I heard an interesting little ditty on NPR this morning while driving to the city. They played a snippet of a the question session at the end of a recent McCain rally. One woman spoke up with a comment for the media, not the candidate. She said (and I quote because I just listened to it again on the Morning Edition webcast) "We want the media to start doing their job and stop picking on little children because of their age and their pregnancies. Shame on you! Shame on all of you!", said to a ringing round of applause and catcalls from the audience (she starts talking at 1:50).

Oh. Really?

So it is no one's business who gets pregnant how and at what age except for the kid in question and the kid's parents, eh?

Tell that to all the teen moms that have been vilified by the Religious Right, the media and the Republican party for a couple of decades now.

Wait, those wicked teen moms made the mistake of not being privileged white kids of respected parents.

Hypocrites. Shame on you. Shame on all of you.
