Leave the Kids Alone: Part 2

I agree that the children of candidates should be off limits. Bristol Palin and her family are in a tough situation and comments from the peanut gallery won't help.

However, Republicans aren't innocent on this at all. Here Rush Limbaugh attacks then 13 year old Chelsea Clinton...

Columnist Molly Ivins reported (Arizona Republic 10/17/93) this incident from (Rush) Limbaugh's TV show--"Here is a Limbaugh joke: Everyone knows the Clintons have a cat. Socks is the White House cat. But did you know there is a White House dog?" And he puts up a picture of Chelsea Clinton. Chelsea Clinton is 13 years old.

And this comment from John McCain about then 18 year old Chelsea Clinton is despicable...

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly? Because Janet Reno is her father".

-John McCain, 1998
