Bristol Palin, the opinionated oldest daughter of former vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, is latching on to an uncovered email from Hillary Clinton that she believes proves the former Alaska governor is a force to be reckoned with.

In reality, the email was a forgettable correspondence. Clinton wanted to know who within the State Department changed the department's terminology from "mother" and "father" to "parent one" and "parent two." While State Department staff were likely trying to be sensitive to same-sex parents, Clinton thought the rightwing blogosphere, including Palin, would jump on the small policy change.

Clinton said she wanted to avoid a "huge Fox-generated media storm led by Palin et al."

Bristol Palin took this as proof that Clinton was in fear of her mother. She wrote the following on her blog:

"Hillary's greatest hits just keep coming... and this time, they reveal that she is terrified of my mom! First of all, Hillary Clinton, the great tolerant one with rainbow Twitter avatars granting open-mindedness to any family formation under the sun, seems a bit more traditional in private than she does in public.

One might call it hypocritical if it didn't come across as so focused on self-preservation instead of any actual policy stance. But this is just more of the same of what we've come to expect from Hillary Clinton. Does she actually believe anything or is she just seeking power and trying to avoid embarrassment?

Liberals like Hillary Clinton would have you believe all sorts of lies about my mother. But, behind closed doors, we find out all sorts of truths, including the fact that Hillary fears my mom's power... millions of Americans know that what my mom talks about in public is right and what Hillary pretends to stand for is wrong."

Just to be clear, "traditional" family defender Bristol Palin has two children born out of wedlock.
