Baby Shmuley steals the show!

[wanzakalekye]

I am not a fan of hers but I do agree that attacks on her kids are horrible and should stop. There's enough to disagree with her on policy without attacking her family. Raise the level of debate to politics and policy not family.

[forloveiwill]

You are very intelligent and well spoken. I also agree with your point of view. The comment by rv(smthg) shouldve/couldve/ would've been mine ...!!!! He stole my words!!;) jk Continue having children and give them the love you hope to see manifest. God bless. (btw- she is super cute)!!!! Shalom

This is still relevant today; the attacks have gotten worse.

And Also America can feed half the world without even trying.

That's why when an environmental crisis hits the secularists would become extinct, and it would be the third-world Christians and the Muslims who reproduce like bunnies who would inherit the Earth.

When you define your validity on the basis that you have given birth to children..... people will then look for further flaws based on your own most declared and prized assets that make you a "successful" politician worthy of contributing to world politics. The "mother" brought it on herself, if her family is the reason why she can do what she does then people should be allowed to have that forum to criticise.

[darkvoid86]

Unfortunately the families of politicians is flaunted to the media to increase popularity. They are manipulated as tools to manipulate the public. When you have Sarah Palin, a politician who is legitimately berated over her qualifications as vice president of the United states, the sheer audacity to have her as a candidate at all is an insult. When asked directly why she is qualified she says "Because I am an Alaskan Mom". When you define your validity on the basis because you have had kids

The Feminist movement from the beginning has been a visceral hateful group of people who decided that the best way to make a better world was thru contraception. Voila! Have at it. Please.

[soloinpomona]

Rabbi, you hit it right. Feminism doesn't see men as important or necessary.

[rvhelm]

I really resonate with you, Rabbi Smuley. Political views and disagreement have their place. Even while disagreeing with Sarah, one can have proper respect for her person and that is a healthy attitude. Then there are those who by attacking her family have some kind of hope of winning some kind of victory. One must question what that particular victory is that they hope to win by doing this.
