Bristol Palin Is A Huge Hypocrite For Opposing Gay Marriage

Single mother Bristol thinks heterosexual couples make better parents. Oh, and watching Glee might make you gay. How absurd!

The internet has been abuzz ever since celebuspawn Bristol Palin went off on a hypocritical diatribe opposing gay marriage in response to President Obama‘s recent announcement advocating same-sex marriage rights.

Bristol feels the President is a poor leader because he took a stance on a controversial issue after conversations with his wife, Michelle, and young daughters, Malia and Sasha.

If Bristol wants to oppose gay marriage, that’s well within her right, but what does it matter what event spurred Obama to go public with his beliefs? “So let me get this straight – it’s a problem if my mom listened too much to my dad, but it’s a heroic act if the President made a massive change in a policy position that could affect the entire nation after consulting with his teenage daughters?” wrote the 21-year-old spawn of Sarah.

“While it’s great to listen to your kids’ ideas, there’s also a time when dads simply need to be dads. In this case, it would’ve been helpful for him to explain to Malia and Sasha that while her friends parents are no doubt lovely people, that’s not a reason to change thousands of years of thinking about marriage.”

Being an unwed mother with zero connection to her babby daddy, Levi Johnston, one would think Bristol would be a little compassionate (and accepting!) about non-traditional family structures. And really, is there only one correct way to raise a family? Isn’t it better to have two loving parents of the same sex than an overwhelmed teenage mother? Lots of gay couples supported Bristol on Dancing with the Stars and now she’s turning her back on them and questioning their values.

“We know that in general kids do better growing up in a mother/father home. Ideally, fathers help shape their kids’ world view,” the single mother argued.

So then why aren’t you married to your son’s father, Bristol? Is Levi hard at work shaping Tripp‘s world view? No, he’s out fathering more children and writing salacious tell-all books about your dysfunctional relationship!

Unlike Bristol, who ditched her kid to compete on a reality television show, Obama actually takes the time to sit down with his children and have discussions with them about serious issues. Despite running the freaking country, he listens to their concerns, addresses their questions and provokes a conversation.

But that’s not good enough for Bristol. “Dads should lead their family in the right ways of thinking,” she advocates. “In this case, it would’ve been nice if the President would’ve been an actual leader and helped shape their thoughts instead of merely reflecting what many teenagers think after one too many episodes of Glee.”

Yeah, because gay marriage is a fad, just like teen pregnancy.
