In the current case, the NRA is saying that if it's morally acceptable for Obama's family to enjoy the peace of mind that comes from armed security, then it's morally acceptable for anyone else to come to that same conclusion.
In Palin's case, folks on your side called her daughter a slut, and claimed that her handicapped son was not actualy her son, but rather her grandson. That speculation served no public policy purpose except to attack Palin personally.
Obama's family is not being personally attacked by people sympathetic to the NRA. Not even remotely close.
Apples and oranges. Nice try.

Its not my side - I've voted R many, many times in the past.
So at what point is ok to discuss family and how far can you go? How about Amy Carter and Chelsea Clinton?
