Bristol Palin suggests that President Obama’s daughters Sasha and Malia are behind his embrace of same-sex marriage rights, and she thinks that’s a shame. In a blog post titled “Hail to the Chiefs – Malia and Sasha Obama,” the 21 year old daughter of former presidential candidate Sarah Palin criticized the president for being overly influenced by his family. ”While it’s great to listen to your kids’ ideas, there’s also a time when dads simply need to be dads. In this case, it would’ve been helpful for him to explain to Malia and Sasha that while her friends parents are no doubt lovely people, that’s not a reason to change thousands of years of thinking about marriage,” wrote Palin, a single mother. “Ideally, fathers help shape their kids’ worldview. In this situation, it was the other way around. I guess we can be glad that Malia and Sasha aren’t younger, or perhaps today’s press conference might have been about appointing Dora the Explorer as Attorney General because of her success in stopping Swiper the Fox.” She continued, “sometimes dads should lead their family in the right ways of thinking. In this case, it would’ve been nice if the President would’ve been an actual leader and helped shape their thoughts instead of merely reflecting what many teenagers think after one too many episodes of Glee.”
