    I blame Obama.

    You got me. I incorrectly assumed you didn't know how to use the now 13-month-old quote function in your veteran age. :)

    The difference between T&F and Jones Ramsey?
    One still has a heartbeat.

    And I believe Bristol is pregnant with her third child by third baby daddy. Family values. Abstinence education. Personal responsibility. All traits the great former governor of Alaska and conservative warrior instilled in her kids.

    Anyone else finding an AR-15 and alcohol a curious choice of treatment for a vet with PTSD?

    She'll be in a trailer park with her mom Snow Barbie in 10 years, tops. Their 15 minutes have lasted longer than I thought possible.

    Maybe instead of blaming the president who ended the war, she should blame the president who started the war?

    There's been one hell of a backlash by veterans to Mama Bear's comments.

    I keep waiting for Dwayne Elizando Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho's endorsement of Trump. That's how otherworldly this whole experience has become.

    Lovely that Mrs. Palin saw fit to slam every veteran by insinuating that they're likely to commit domestic violence just because they went to war.

    Awesome. And since the dumb bitch brought it up, once again I'd like to see proof of exactly what kind of harrowing combat conditions Track was actually under.

    My bet is it probably consisted of playing video games in the barracks.

    Eh, I'm sure that combat veterans are much more likely to commit domestic violence, because PTSD makes them more likely to commit violence, period, I would think. It's rough coming home. This has been covered ad nauseum. If she had talked about that issue, I'm fine with it. I'm even fine with a general statement saying veterans need more support dealing with these issues. Hell, that was the point of the New Yorker's Chris Kyle/Eddie Ray Routh piece a few years ago, and that's not exactly The National Review.

    Where she made an indefensible turn was using the incident to indict Obama, specifically, and then to pivot to Trump, who she had endorsed the day before. Just unfathomably crass.
