Britney’s little sister Jamie Lynn Spears may not be old enough to vote, but she’s found an unlikely ally in Presidential nominee Mike Huckabee.

Huckabee, who is a Republican Baptist minister, took a moment to discuss Spears’ situation at a rally in Iowa. Shouldn’t he be talking about things far more important than Britney’s little sister?

He said, "It’s a tragedy when a 16-year-old, who is not really prepared for all the responsibilities of adult life, is going to be now faced with all the responsibilities of honest-to-goodness adult life."

He added, "I think that is the right decision, a good decision, and I respect that and appreciate it. I hope it is not an encouragement to other 16-year-olds who think that is the best course of action, but, at the same time, I’m not going to condemn her.

"I just hope that she will make another right decision and that’s to give that child all the love and kindness and care that she can."

Isn’t it sad that she’s old enough to bring another human being into the world but she’s not allowed to vote or smoke a cigarette or have a drink? She clearly has the financial means to support her child, but babies shouldn’t be having babies.
