New Republic: Why Sarah Palin's Image Does Not Advance The Cause Of Working Women

[ljb6599]

linymo....I guess it is all a matter of opinion.I find Sarah Palin to be obnoxious not Joe Biden.

Again the campaigns sound alike. Obama and his "if I can make it and I''m black, why can''t other blacks get off their behinds and work too" to Palin and her "stop whining and get on with it" to poor women.

Both make a good point of do it yourself and stop asking for a hand out fromt the Government. We are turning into a Socialist Nation and not a Democracy. People, no one told you to have children you can''t afford to take care of. There should be free abortions for all black and hispanic women and poor white women. Let''s get rid of society''s burden. Pay your own way!!! Stop depending on other peoples taxes to support your mistakes.

PS Just like on Saturday Night Live - it''s one thing for them to stick up for Hillary at a liberal institution in a liberal industry . . . they are NEVER going to stick up for a Republican. It''d be career suicide.

Could be - I just thought it was the case of The Nation having liberals as their core group of readers such that the hires are all core liberals who don''t understand the views of the other side of the aisle.

There''s a better non-partisan argument to be made, but why pony that up to the guy in the race who only talks pay-parity but in reality doesn''t walk the talk?

Although who knows - most women with strong party affiliation seem mired in the defense of proclaiming publicly that they are MILES apart from Palin''s, or that they are COMPLETE OPPOSITES, or that they don''t agree with ANYTHING she says when the reality is that leaders rarely govern solely on their beliefs. Legislators might, but at the Executive level with a diverse group of people and a mixed upper branch, it''s virtually impossible, so belief aren''t really as relevant as what a politician intends to do and how likely they are to stick to their word.

You should not let someone like this make you feel bad.

Sarah uses the system and gets paid per diem to live in her own house.

You can be good at killing animal too.

Just by a BB or pellet gun and have someone drive you around and you can shoot dogs and cats.

Now don''t you feel better.

Your posts are repulsive - and I don''t just mean the gory way in which you seem to love to paint abortion - I mean in your lack of sense and your lack of truthfulness.

Barack Obama has said many times that he would oppose late-term abortions if there were an exception for the life/health of the mother. So, you have taken a position of compassion for the mother and turned it into gory serial-killing, as only a rabid anti-choice person can do. Would you rather the mother died?

Shame on you.

or go dwell on the 5000 babies who died in Iraq and Afghanistan because of you nut job, lying republican hawks, chasing after Iraq''s oil, and profit from your investments.

[sleepyric]

hey Scaredgirl,,,why don''t you go raise those 5000 babies, who if not wanted, and make it to adulthood, will in turn breed 5000 more babies, and so on, and so on,,then you republicans can *** some more about welfare in this country.

While McClone whines and whines about a supposed insult to poor sensitive Sarah Palin, McClone''s surrogates and cat''s paws on the Internet spew any and all vile racial insults against Obama--McCain pretends he has nothing to do with it--comments about fried chicken, Stepin Fechit, and all the other White Supremacist code words the Neocon Fascists trot out to insult Obama as an African-American.

These were the good conservative White Christian folk who operated the terrorist organization the KKK, the crooked cops who looked the other way in Alabama as Black heros were murdered by thugs, and the rest of the slime.

But question Palin''s or McCain''s credentials, and these vermin are all "outraged".

It would be funny if it weren''t so pathetic.

Did anyone besides me notice when they announced that Bristol was PG that they claimed it was Bristol''s choice to have the baby. Do you really think she had the choice? I think not.
If my daughter was PG at that age I would have told her she did not have to have the child there are choices. Abortion should be the last option but these people want to ban any choice of even birth control if they could. Which to me prevents the whole issue of unwanted children they claim will leach off the system. We need modern thinking people in this modern world, not those that think we should get back to the 50''s mentality. Which by the way had just as much *** going on then as today just it was not in the open. Grandma''s raised grand kids as their own to prevent others from finding out that the daughter''s were unwed mothers. This was after the daughter was sent away until the child was born.
Many think that *** is in heaven why would it be then if it is only for pro creation.
