Sexism the new POW excuse?
can't ask about vetting process because it's sexism

can't ask about her qualifications because it's sexism

can't ask her anything about foreign affairs, the economy, Iraq, Afghanistan because it's sexism

can't ask her about her family because it's sexism

so what does that leave? weather? nope, asking her about weather may be sexist because of hurricanes....

give me a freaking break...




meanwhile, I caught one group of repub women asking that we stop the politics of personal destruction -- seems they don't like it when they are the targets

1. Actually, tit for tat -- their criticism of Obama -- racism.
They apply one standard for a fundamentalist female and quite a different one for a black male.

Alaskan: Governor Babe for VP!
February 28, 2008

**RUSH: The babe is the icing on the cake aspect, something the Democrats can't claim on their side.

**CALLER: She can't take a bad picture not even from the back end.

Palin's Media
FEBRUARY 26, 2008 - 12:05 PM
From Sean Cockerham in Anchorage --
http://community.adn.com/blog/24417?page=33
Sarah Palin is getting all kinds of media during her D.C. trip.

Check out this gushing piece in the American Spectator that declares "Sarah Palin, the beautiful conservative Republican governor of Alaska, would be an ideal choice to help McCain slay this unholy ObamaOprah beast."

"Gov. Palin could become the Republican Party's Segolene Royal, the French Socialist Party's glamorous leader known for her heels and political bite. She is the perfect antidote to Sen. Obama's cheap thrills, and would help rejuvenate conservatism."
