Dems are Sexists, Racist, Homophobes.
Pray for America
In the America of old, or a sane world, which is what America used to be, a congressman (or woman) who refused to fill out the census form would be crazy. Ms. Bachmann showed incredibly good judgment by not giving away her personal info, because it WOULD have ended up in the hands of Acorn. What kind of world do we live in where a bitter, radical, criminal left wing organization like Acorn can pose a genuine threat to a member of Congress, and no one will stop them?
“where the gray-scale crowd of totalitarian-oppressed automatons watch a dictator lecture them on the giant viewscreen, when suddenly a beautiful young woman burst onto the screen - pursued by stormtroopers - and destroys the entire hypocritical fraud that is the regime”
I always thought that commercial was the highth of hypocracy. After all, it was Apple (who ran the ad) which did not allow any freedom in tailoring the system. Apple was the one who said this is all you can have/do. The mean evil ‘dictator’ (IBM) was the one who gave the computer user the freedom to mix and match components.
But to the point of your post. There were only one reason the feminists opposed Palin and that was abortion.

You get what you ask for.
It’s the abortion business. Not just that Palin is against abortion, but that she didn’t have one when she was “supposed” to.
Yes, they do hate attractive articulate conservative women, and they are going after them hammer and tong.
But this also reflects a change in the nature of the Democratic Party. It isn’t your Uncle Harry’s party any more. We’ve seen the politics of personal destruction before as they’ve gone after individuals and torn them to shreds, but its being ramped up to a permanent state of warfare. We saw the Clinton’s war-room style of attack politics, and now we are seeing the ACORN style of attack politics which looks a lot more like soviet agitprop than anything I’ve seen in a long time.
So now anyone who dares to question them or dissent is being attacked, even physically. We saw this during the primary and its ramping up now.
The “new” Dems see politics as warfare. You are not their fellow citizen anymore. They will not try to persuade you; they will shout you down, expose you, rough you up, shut you out, sic their lawyers on you, sic their mobs on you. They’ll distort who you are every day in the press and in the entertainment media until even your pet dog won’t want to be seen with you. This is what they do.
When you have any of the above mentioned qualities, you can't be squeezed into a "victim" category and they don't know what to do with you. You have to be labeled with some affliction that surely came as the result of persecution by men.
If the woman is attractive, they'll ignore the issues and just mock her for her good looks. If the woman is unattractive, they'll ignore the issues and mock her for her not-so-good looks. Either way, her intelligence and common sense is thrown out the window and the debate becomes about her looks, sex appeal, fashion sense...or lack thereof.
I was told by a fake feminist that I owed it to other women to support abortion and other man-hatin' agendas. I replied that the women in my family in previous generations didn't fight for their rights just so that another woman could tell them what to do, think and how to vote. I have no doubt that Mr. Kenny Gladney was specifically targeted this past week because he is a minority that "stepped out of line." That's how they work. I wish him a full and speedy recovery.
