Why isn't the media all over this?
Apparently this happened in 2002 and I agree that it's is a family matter so why doesn't the same apply to Bristol Palin's pregnancy?

Sen. Biden’s Daughter Arrested in Altercation
August 04, 2002 in print edition A-15
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.

That's because it means nothing Joe. Just like bringing up that Palin's husband had a DUI. Much more serious issue than a bar incident, for someone who was 21 at the time.
The baby issue is obvious because she is not married and 17 yrs old.
Obama called for everyone to back off Palin's daughter and family. You and your commenters were on it just like all the other media.
As to your question, why not be all over this?
1. It was 6 years ago. Biden didn't have the VP nomination then.
2. Biden didn't try to make policy for others' lives with regard to this with one standard for his family and another for the rest of us.
Like father, like daughter.....Joe Biden is an arrogant know it all who didn't even like or agree with Barack Obama until he was chosen to be vp.
I don't remember hearing anything on this one. Again, NO respect for the police. She deserved to go to jail. She's got that "Daddy" will save me syndrome that many kids have today.
When Obama heard about Palin's daughter's pregnancy, he said that children should be off limits in this campaign. I agree. The candidates and their platforms are different enough that voters can choose for whom to vote without involving the offspring.
