The most recent Palin family babymommadrama: Sarah Palin’s son Track has been married for two months! ...to a wife who’s been pregnant for several? Because abstinence-only sex education is a better solution to extramarital pregnancy than condoms are. How could I have been so blind?

This is, of course, none of my (or your) business. What Britta & Track do in their bedroom & what they do about what they’ve done in their bedroom is of no direct concern to me. It does, though, reflect problems with someone who has been & continues, per her own volition, to be influential in American political life. Sarah hasn’t commented on this debacle, but I’m sure she still maintains that abstinence only sex education is the best way to keep away unwanted pregnancies, even though her own household has now twice proven her wrong. It matters to the country that a politician wants to base legislation for millions of strangers on logic that doesn’t even work for the few people under her roof.
On the bright side, Britta’s too old to be manipulated into nonsense campaigns against extramarital sex (even though the self-same “Abstinence Ambassador” a.k.a. Bristol Palin is on record saying that abstinence for all teens is “not realistic”) &, on a more serious note, this is Track’s high school sweet-heart, so maybe there’s some longevity & ostensible stability they can count on. One can only hope for the child’s sake.
& remember kids, a baby does not a marriage make.
