Movieline's Favorite Palin Feud of the Day: Keith Olbermann vs. Bristol

This rarely recurring feature was once called "Movieline's Favorite Celebrity Feud of the Day," but since all feuds lead through Wasilla nowadays, let's just change the title accordingly. This week, MSNBC anchor Keith Olbermann railed against former Dancing with the Stars finalist Bristol Palin because she still preaches about the effectiveness of abstinence (preaching made difficult by the child in her arms). Calling Bristol the "worst person in the world" was taking it a bit too far, however, and so Bristol replied to Olbermann the way most Palin's express themselves -- with a missive on Facebook.

Wrote Baby Mama Grizzly in an impassioned note:

Accusing me of hypocrisy is by now, an old canard. What Mr. Olbermann lacks in originality he makes up for with insincere incredulity. Mr. Olbermann fails to understand that in order to have credibility as a spokesperson, it sometimes takes a person who has made mistakes. Parents warn their children about the mistakes they made so they are not repeated. Former gang members travel to schools to educate teenagers about the risks of gang life. Recovered addicts lecture to others about the risks of alcohol and drug abuse. And yes, a teen mother talks about the benefits of preventing teen pregnancy.

I have never claimed to be perfect. If that makes me the "worst person in the world" to Mr. Olbermann, then I must apologize for not being absolutely faultless like he undoubtedly must be.

To Mr. Olbermann let me say this: you can attack me all you want. But you will not stop me from getting my message out about teen pregnancy prevention. And one day, if you ever have a daughter, you may change your mind about me.

Tell you what: That's a fairly on-point rebuttal of Olbermann's complaints -- one that didn't resort to any homophobic slurs. Hooray! She might still be missing the bigger picture -- after all, duh -- but calling out Keith's messiah-complex is totally accurate and sorta funny. If only Bristol's mother and sister knew to show as much class on the social networking site. Bristol in 2012?
