She can deliver misogyny on a pretty, pink platter. She serves it to the masses with a smile and a wink, allowing them to deepen their prejudice against our gender. Palin is the perfect running mate, the perfect puppet if he dies and she becomes president. Perfect for the Republican party. Now, lets continue to support our female leaders in the hopes that they too will be so unabashedly forthright about their beliefs. No one needs to appear demure anymore. It's time female Democrats stand up to Palin and the Republican machine. Palin can spin and spit out Right wing propaganda as well as the next one.

She is every bit as incompetent, arrogant, hypocritical, with a flippant ignorance-is-bliss expression, a perfect specimen of the <i>GOP</i> and the neocon-agenda, as the Manchild-in-Chief. Just different chromosomes this time around. But hey, the <i>GOP</i> is all about diversity this time! (eye-roll) McBush might as well have just gone all the way and picked Phyllis Schlafly.

Cowards! Ooooh, big girl with big gun is afraid of the press. That's red meat for the press, and you know what happens when the press smells blood. Sp's so convenient with that great big family -- she's a got a family member to appeal to every special interest: special needs child, son AND nephew going to Iraq (they won't be going into combat if their mom and aunt makes it to D.C. though), adolescent daughter who 'got into trouble,' a sister who started a new biz (which evidently sp had a 25% share in and they went bust or something -- maybe it was a different biz, a car wash that wasn't the gas station sp stated?), husband in the erl biz and total sportsman, they all have guns and shoot them. They just don't have anybody that fits into the LBGT slot. Dang. But the young 'uns have time yet .... Is that a fair remark? Considering how they've put that family front and center as THE REASON SP IS QUALIFIED FOR THE OVAL OFFICE, why yes, it is fair to itemize how appealing they are to the voters. Love, C. No Press Questions Or Meetings To Be Allowed With sp, according to the rnc.

Cowards!

Ooooh, big girl with big gun is afraid of the press.

That’s red meat for the press, and you know what happens when the press smells blood.

Sp’s so convenient with that great big family — she’s a got a family member to appeal to every special interest: special needs child, son AND nephew going to Iraq (they won’t be going into combat if their mom and aunt makes it to D.C. though), adolescent daughter who ‘got into trouble,’ a sister who started a new biz (which evidently sp had a 25% share in and they went bust or something — maybe it was a different biz, a car wash that wasn’t the gas station sp stated?), husband in the erl biz and total sportsman, they all have guns and shoot them. They just don’t have anybody that fits into the LBGT slot. Dang. But the young ‘uns have time yet ….

Is that a fair remark? Considering how they’ve put that family front and center as THE REASON SP IS QUALIFIED FOR THE OVAL OFFICE, why yes, it is fair to itemize how appealing they are to the voters.

Love, C.

(Note: Doing well in Washington is not the same as competency in leadership.)

Troopergate Librarygate Babygate Calling rival "bitch" and "cancer" gate Husband in a secessionist party-gate Made McCain's pork-barrel spending list-gate Got Wasilla $20 million in debt-gate Doesn't actually do anything with the National Guard-gate Went to 5 schools in 6 years-gate Didn't get her passport until 2007-gate "Has foreign policy experience because Alaska is next to Russia" gate "I don't know much about Iraq" gate "What exactly does the VP do?"-gate Some of these, like the pregnant daughter and the multiple schools, I don't necessarily judge. But taken all together... McCain has absolutely lost his mind to pick this woman. Absolutely lost it. And I'm not even getting started on the double standards here. How many “Gates” have come out since Palin was selected?

Troopergate
Librarygate
Babygate
Calling rival “bitch” and “cancer” gate
Husband in a secessionist party-gate
Made McCain’s pork-barrel spending list-gate
Got Wasilla $20 million in debt-gate
Doesn’t actually do anything with the National Guard-gate
Went to 5 schools in 6 years-gate
Didn’t get her passport until 2007-gate
“Has foreign policy experience because Alaska is next to Russia” gate
“I don’t know much about Iraq” gate
“What exactly does the VP do?”-gate

Some of these, like the pregnant daughter and the multiple schools, I don’t necessarily judge. But taken all together… McCain has absolutely lost his mind to pick this woman. Absolutely lost it.

And I’m not even getting started on the double standards here.
