Double Standard

Ok, so we've all heard the choice for Vice President on the Republican side's 17 year old daughter is pregnant. Big whoop, I say. But everyone was treating it like it was some kind of big deal, including people in the media.

So, one would venture to say that when the Vice Presidential choice of Joe Biden's daughter is ARRESTED, I would expect more media coverage right?

Well, I'm willing to bet that this is all we'll hear about it:

The daughter of Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr. (D-Del.) was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of obstructing a police officer outside a Chicago bar.

Ashley Blazer Biden, 21, of Wilmington, Del., was with a group of people on a North Side street where several bars are located when someone else threw a bottle at an officer, police said.

When police tried to arrest another person, Biden blocked the officer’s path and made intimidating statements, officer JoAnn Taylor said.

Biden was later released and is scheduled to appear in court Sept. 20.

Sen. Biden’s spokeswoman, Margaret Aitken, declined to comment, calling it a private, family matter

.

Threatening a police officer? Good idea idiot. She's lucky he didn't taser her. Then we'd all hear about how she was "brutalized by police" and all other sorts of bullshit.

Instead, we get a few paragraph article that will probably only be mentioned once, and won't make it to the front page like the 17 year old pregnancy issue.
