Throw Down


Lindsay Lohan has gotten into a war of words with the family of Sarah Palin. It all started because Lindsay criticized Sarah and her pregnant daughter Bristol on her MySpace blog. Lindsay wrote:

Political Blog

I've been watching the news all morning, like everyone else - and i keep hearing about the issues related to 'teen pregnancy'- It's all related to Sarah Palin and her 17 year old unmarried pregnant daughter. Well, I think the real problem comes from the fact that we are taking the focus off of getting to know Sarah Palin and her political views, and what she can do to make our country a less destructive place. Its distracting from the real issues, the real everyday problems that this country experiences.

I am concerned with the fact that Sarah Palin brought the attention to her daughter's pregnancy, rather than all world issues and what she believes she could possibly do to change them-if elected. I get Sarah Palin's views against abortion, but i would much prefer to hear more about what she can do for our country rather than how her daughter is going to have a child no matter what.

Maybe focus on delivering some words and policy with stronger impact like Joe Biden.

I'm not sure Sarah was the one who actually drew attention to her daughter being pregnant. Matter of fact, I think Sarah would've been happy for no one to mention that - but Daily Kos got on the whole Trig rumor thing and then people from Alaska started mentioning Bristol being pregnant and Palin's people consulted with McCain's people and decided to get ahead of the whole story by just announcing the pregnancy. But whatever. Whether Lindsay's criticism is valid has no bearing on the amusement value here. The funny thing is the response from Palin's 13-year-old daughter Willow, who posted this on her blog My Life as Willow Palin:

thanks everyone for the nice comments and I like to ignore the rude ones, anywaze! thanks for sendin me all the info, I search alot on my computer but u guys find info really quick!

Well linsday lohan decided to comment on my mother blaming her for not focusing on real issues….so it’s my mother fault? No it’s people with the WRONG views on things that are basically attacking my sister for creating life, i know what they say about you linsday, you are a lesbian and god does not like that all at, you don’t know anything about famiy, i know you don’t get along with your dad, well my family will be together forever and so will bristol’s and levi’s! so how can u even comment? my mom is about real issues hopefully she gets a chance to tell them without being attacked by crazies and homopeople


This little girl is fantastic. She is going to be president one day and probably put Lindsay and me and the other crazies and homopeople in jail. I hope Lindsay reads that and tries to respond - because she has no chance. She has been utterly out-classed. You go Willow! I don't even care if you hate me and think my entire existence is an aberration and that God is going to come down one day and shoot me in my naughty parts with lightning. You are too cute to hate back!

Thanks Elisa
