From Bristol Palin's
blog:
Yesterday, I was at Track’s house for his last night in town before
he deploys back to Afghanistan. That’s where I got an e-mail explaining
that Mike Huckabee had just told his radio audience that he was very disappointed in me. Here’s what he said:
We had earlier in the hour that Bristol Palin would be joining us about a new reality t.v. show that she’s going to be doing.
And apparently, she just didn’t show up.
So guess what? I don’t guess we’ll be watching tomorrow when her new show lines up.
Too bad.
He
goes on to say that he doesn’t believe children of politicians deserve
to be criticized for their parents’ decisions. He regrets his own
children have suffered for his own choices as a politician.
There’s
a different story once the child decides, “Hey, I like this spotlight. I
like the limelight. I want to have more of it,” then, you know, they
become fair game.
Then they are there by their own choice and
their own volition. So if you go on Dancing with the Stars, or go on a
lecture tour, or do a reality show, then, all bets are off…
He continues by saying he didn’t think David Letterman was fair to me during the 2008 campaign. However:
I
hope she’s ready for it, because now it’ll come not because of what her
mother chose to do but because she’s said, “Hey, I want to be in the
spotlight.
I understand Gov.
Huckabee has a huge challenge creating a radio show he wants as the
alternative to Rush Limbaugh. I understand he wants to fill his show
with a little controversy – and what better way than to create headlines
telling the world he now considers me “fair game.”
