Governor Palin

Title- Palin's Budget Cuts Affect Teenage Mothers

Response-
After reading this article in the NY Times one could only question Governor Palin's budget cuts. Obviously not everyone is going to wait until they are married to have sex so by Palin stating that she wouldn't support sex-education in schools is absurd. I mean her own  daughter is pregnant! Not to attack her daughter and what she is going through, but  I think by Palin being so pro-life she has lost  respect and created controversy surrounding  John McCain's campaign.  People make a lot of choices in their lives good and bad, and to not provide sufficient money for Covenent House Alaska is terrible in my mind. Educating teens about sex is one of the most important things adults can do for children  because if they aren't educated well in the topic, it could lead to more unplanned pregnancies and things of that sort. So yes i think this article is bias because it's not promoting the governor in any way to the readers eye but what do you expect from the journalists. This is something very controversial that should be addressed and people should know as much possible about the candidates before election time.
