There is no way to know if Sarah Palin would be a good or a bad vice-president or pre

What?


What the hell? When did we step back to the 18th century?

I'm going to respect the Mayor's rules and leave colorful language out of this. Anyone who thinks this should never be a parent. Both my wife and I shoulder the responsibility of raising the kids, and without a joint effort it would be tough at best.

Parenting is a joint effort. Can Barack Obama be a full time dad to his kids and be POTUS? A man with children should devote all his time to the kids, I can't imagine a man who has chidren wanting to do anything else.

It's the 21st century, bub. Care to join it?

Bravo LH. On this subject, we are in total agreement.

A bunch of cats with claws! If you have children -- stay home with them, love them and rear them properly! What's wrong with you?

You really have no damned idea who you're talking to.

Here's a buck, go buy a clue.

In your case I think I do have a clue.

Now I know that we all make typos here. No big deal, but grammatical errors or inexcuseable. It should be: "You have no idea to whom you are talking." Never end a sentence with a preposition.

I figure I would stay at the level of your, ummmm, "point".

By the way, Willow Oak: I know one woman who has four boys. The eldest of them is a Downs Syndrome child. If you ask her, or her husband, he was the by far the easiest of them to care for as a baby. And yes, both she and her husband work, and yet this DS boy has gotten plenty of care, goes to school, and plays with his brothers, all of whom are growing up knowing that some people are different, but in many ways are the same as the rest of us.

Yes, talk about the pot calling the kettle black......

[caseysmom]

Yes one must be very careful pointing out grammatical errors not to make any at said calling out Decreases credibility substantially.

WO: You certainly have the right to your opinions. I respect that greatly. You should be allowed to say what you want, within reason, and not have to apologise for anything other than violating the Mayor's rules.

I am concerned because you mentioned possibly leaving the board. We've seen people get upset and never come back. I didn't want you to be one of those people.

This is such a controversial subject, and, it would get heated fast. I hope everyone can just have a discussion and no one decides to leave the board. We don't want to lose anybody. I just met you and would hate to see you go.

[Lady's Human]

I don't give a rat's tail if I end a sentence with a preposition or invective. This isn't English 101.

You started the flames with your neanderthal opinion of parenting. Frankly, you have much to learn. It's called reality. Both parents are needed, and both need to spend time parenting.

Maybe Sen. Obama's going to leave his chillun's with a nanny? Or is it just Gov. Palin who's gonna leave the chillun's with a nanny?

McCain has a daughter under 18 perhaps he shouldn't run either

Oh no, you're right! Ok, new law then? Anyone with minor children must not run for pres. or VP - or even have a job for that matter!

I'm not going to bite my tongue while this fool speaks.

It offends me as a father who takes just a tad more than 5 minutes a day to be a father.

It offends me as the son of someone who took just a few more than 5 minutes to be a father.

Parenting is a joint effort. While I'm typing this, my wife is working, and I'm taking care of our children. I also worked last night, and put in 50-60 hours/week. Does that disqualify me from being a father? No.

Regardless of whether my wife was working or not, I'd be active in parenting. It's a sad commentary on society that this pervasive crap that a woman's place is in the kitchen still exists.
