Family Values

Maybe a Republican can explain what 'family values' mean to them. I am confused.

Standing on the stage is a woman who eloped with her boyfriend, had a baby less than 8 months later, and now has a 17-year old daughter that is unmarried and pregnant. To the Republicans that is being upheld as a wonderful depiction of family values.

Hmmmm, now if Obama and Michelle were standing there with their unmarried and pregnant 17-year old daughter, would they be saying what a wonderful depiction of family life that was?

I thought Republican family values were all about abstinence and getting married before consumating a relationship and certainly before getting pregnant.

The hypocrisy of the Republicans drives me nuts!
