James Dobson Responds To Palin’s Daughter’s Pregnancy

COLORADO SPRINGS – Focus on the Family founder James Dobson is praising the way Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and her husband are supporting their pregnant teenage daughter.

Dobson issued the statement Monday after Sarah and Todd Palin announced that her 17-year-old unmarried daughter is five months pregnant.

Dobson said the Palins should be commended for living out their “pro-life and pro-family values” even in trying circumstances. He said no one should paint Palin as a hypocrite because of her daughter’s pregnancy. He says being a Christian doesn’t mean you or your children are perfect but that there is “forgiveness and restoration when we confess our imperfections to the Lord.”
