TYT: Sarah Palin: Track Punched His Girlfriend, Thanks Obama

[WhoIsNumberNone]

Sarah Palin has responded to her son Track punching his girlfriend in the face and threatening to kill himself with a gun to his head. By blaming Obama. John Iadarola (ThinkTank), Jimmy Dore (The Jimmy Dore Show Podcast), and Jayar Jackson, hosts of the The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

"Former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin suggested Wednesday that President Barack Obama was to blame for the arrest of her son Track on domestic violence charges.

Palin noted during a political rally in Tulsa that her 26-year-old son had served in Iraq. “My son, like so many others, they come back a bit different. They come back hardened,” she remarked in a video published by Right Wing Watch.

Palin said her son suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder, and that Obama had made his situation worse by allegedly disrespecting veterans.”*

1. Okay, so Track Palin get's a pass because he's an Iraq vet....

What were Bristol, Todd and Sara's excuses for turning a party into a brawl in 2014?

2. Nope

I'm hoping it's tongue-in-cheek here, but as a combat vet of OIF3, nobody, especially veterans get a pass for smacking their girlfriend, wife, child or otherwise. And to use PTSD as an excuse only makes dealing with PTSD all the more difficult. But truth be told, I do sometimes daydream about flaying Darth Cheney with a bicycle chain for a week or two.

3. Service

Rumor has it that Track was stateside during his "service" (Thanks, McCain) since he has had drug and anger issues all his life. Can someone review his record, tell WHERE he was actually stationed? I think the PTSD was caused by toxic mom $carah. He seemed to spend a LOT of his service time in Wasilly. $carah claims he has been in Iraq more than once. He kicked his girlfriend when she was on the ground, too. Nice guy, Palinfdamily values, no doubt. Once Todd and Bristles had a fight, and she grabbed him by the cajones, when he dragged her around by the hair.

4. A Joke

How disturbing that no one is speaking about the victim in this situation.
