Keep piling on, fools! You're costing your boy millions of votes, but either you just can't see it, or you can't help yourselves!

In Palin I recognize a fellow traveler

Quindlen, don't flatter yourself.

(Is it just me, or do these laudatory articles on Palin give you the creeps?)

What a ‘tard. The PTA was just the beginning. The executive experience came from being mayor of Wasilla (now my hometown) and governor of Alaska.

[rbbeachkid]

They so don’t get it.

It’s sad how women empowerment is about political party to some and not actual empowerment.

Don’t hate yourself too much Anna, Sarah is trying to be strong for you too.

[Tzimisce]

We’re watching the death of feminism and the left is alienating everybody one at a time....

[Question Liberal Authority]

Anna Quindlen is so much better now that she’s mellowed.

[Hugin]

The governor's two years leading Alaska, which in terms of citizens served is the equivalent of being mayor of Poughkeepsie, N.Y.,

Ploughkeepsie: POPULATION: 30,498

Alaska: POPULATION 670,053

Another math challanged liberal.

I must say, I'm really savoring the bitter, toxic disappointment of the left. They were hoping to wind the country up into a primitive, stereotypical witch hunt, and instead wound up looking like narrow minded inquisitors themselves.

"What if we threw a stoning and nobody came?"

Now they feel silly. They were hoping for their own dark fears and pathologies to be confirmed. They were really hoping that the average American was a Neanderthal jerk. The kind they could manipulate into a frenzy, and then sit back and watch in their own smug satisfaction.

Now they're *disappointed* that there was no burning of witches or hurling of stones, and *embarassed* because they tried to rouse the rabble, and failed. Guess what, lefties? This ain't the 1950s anymore. Get over it.

I guess its "sexist" to be conservative, religious and pro-life - if that means being a woman. You're not sexist if you're a conservative man. The true specimen of womanhood must today, tomorrow and forever be a member in good standing of the liberal feminist sisterhood. That's not hypocrisy to Anna Quindlen!

Oh, I can see how they are all confused. They set up a straw-man Republican and a straw-man Christian and proceeded to malign them for years.

They just neglected to check whether their assumptions about Republicans and Christians were correct.

[Kickass Conservative]

That's a man baby.

[Enchante]

"The governor's two years leading Alaska, which in terms of citizens served is the equivalent of being mayor of Poughkeepsie, N.Y."

A statement of such staggering, breathtaking imbecility that the person uttering it can never again be taken seriously on any subject at all. Way to go, Anna!! You have proved that you are not fit to judge the Miss Poughkeepsie beauty pageant, nor anything else!!

[Darkwolf377]

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Another lib whose every line should read "Only liberal women are REAL women!!!!!"

I tried reading her stuff some years ago and literally could not get all the way through a single column of hers. Still can't. What a bore! Her positions are trite and completely predictable.

James Dobson of Focus on the Family

The libs always pull out their half-dozen go-to guys, and forget the fact that most PEOPLE let alone conservatives can't be pigeonholed so easily. But such lazy thinking is necessary to get another boring column out each week.

I for one have nothign to do with Dobson--sorry, Anna, your cliched thinking only applies in your liberal fever dreams that The Right is made up only of those you fear and hate the most, without any room for individuality--that quality that keeps me from every wanting to be a dem.

Since B. Hussain cites his run for the presidency as his executive experience, how about Kucinic, he has more executive experience than the CEO of Exxon.

Ms. Quindlan - you’re just jealous.

Oh, I can see how they are all confused. They set up a straw-man Republican and a straw-man Christian and proceeded to malign them for years. They just neglected to check whether their assumptions about Republicans and Christians were correct.

So true. They finally started believing all the hit pieces on Christians that they have been writing for the past 20 years.
