Bristol Palin: Parenting Expert and Queen of Irony

Let’s get one thing clear right off the bat.  I don’t have a problem with people who have an opinion that’s different than mine.  After all, it’s the people with differing opinions that create so much useful discussion on a lot of topics.  I do have a problem though when that opinion comes from a position of obvious hypocrisy.

Enter Bristol Palin.

Now, I’ve tried to give her the benefit of the doubt in the past ever since she became an abstinence advocate following becoming a teen and unwed mother herself.  But since then she seems to be channeling her mother’s ability to put her foot in her mouth a little too often.  Instead of sliding into the background, she’s found a way to stay in the spotlight by feeling the need to comment on current events that she really ought to keep quiet on.
