There are certain parents out there who view children as chattel, as pieces of property to be vicariously lived through.  These are parents who are the coldest of the cold.  Sarah Palin is one such mother.

A federal judge correctly mentioned how Trigg was used as a prop.  I'll be specific.  At the RNC, the kid was scripted to be in Todd's arm at an exact time the camera was on.  When that time passed, Todd immediately dumped the baby off to the 5 year old as if he was holding a bunch of manure and he was saying to himself, "Get this thing off of me."  We then see Trigg's hair being combed by the saliva of a 5 year old as Todd is elsewhere.

When you see Sarah Palin hold Trigg, she holds him as if she is holding a bag of clothes from Macys.  Now if the clothes were Nieman Marcus, Sarah Palin would show more concern for that bag than Trigg.

The lack of love with Palin was also shown through her treatment of Bristol, who is really getting a raw deal.  Palin was willing to sell Bristol under the bridge for her own ambitions.  This is not dissimilar to when Isiah Thomas recently claimed that his 17 year old daughter overdosed from drugs when in reality, it was he who overdosed not the kid.

Sarah Palin is just a plain evil person.  There is no love, decency, or humanity inside this Wasilla wacko.  Children to her, even her own, are nothing more than props.
