Lindsay Lohan Gets Political
Who knew Lindsay Lohan blogged about politics? I thought she only used her blog to argue with her dad and send thinly veiled love notes to Samantha Ronson. But even LiLo can surprise us. Today she posted some commentary about vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin’s pregnant teenage daughter.
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.
On another note-the last note- i heard a woman say on TODAY on NBC that teens are feeling as if they have to grow up faster. Really? Because, i think that girls that are CHOOSING to be sexually active and are making a conscious decision to grow up faster….. I think that parents need to recognize how important it is to talk to their children about the things that can result from being sexually active if they aren’t protecting themselves (birth control, condoms, etc.)
Wow… LiLo sounds… knowledgeable? Intelligent? Like someone I could agree with (on this issue at least)? I guess election years make pundits out of all of us!
