Pray for Bristol Palin

*
According to ABC News tipsheet The Note, Bristol Palin will appear with the stupid, mostly leftist harpies who host ABC's "The View" Wednesday.

Combine stupidity, ignorance and nastiness and you have View host Joy Behar. She's famous for saying of the term used to describe the Friday following Thanksgiving, which is the beginning of the traditional Christmas shopping season, "Isn't it a little racist to call it Black Friday?" Whoopi Goldberg had to school Behar that, no, it is not even a little raaaacist to say that.

But that was a case of the blind leading the blind, as Goldberg is no Mensa candidate herself. Nor is she the pinnacle of moral insight. Whoopi demonstrated the ethical bankruptcy of Hollywood by defending confessed child molester Roman Polanski, saying what he did to a 13 year old girl "wasn't rape rape."

For anyone who ever doubted the courage of the teen mom who is Sarah Palin's eldest daughter, Bristol's willingness to walk into that den of iniquity should lay them aside. Doubtless she had little choice in the matter, as her role as an ambassador for The Candie's Foundation likely requires her to go where they say.

Still, we will pray for her, and hope that you will do so also. No praying for Tripp to burp up his strained beets all over Joy Behar and Whoopie Goldberg on the set of The View, however. That would be a sin.
