The first time I can remember feeling personally insulted by a political commentator was back in 1988. It was the Republican Convention and they named George H.W. Bush their nominee for president. He chose the little-known Dan Quayle as his running mate and some wonk commentator said that Bush could then count on the women’s vote because he had selected such a handsome man to run for vice president.
Ouch!
What a condescending and ignorant comment! I couldn’t believe that this guy thought women were so stupid, superficial and shallow. He dismissed women as critical thinkers and implied that women don’t worry about the economy, foreign affairs, health care, education, or justice. The TV anchor indicted women as easily swayed by unimportant physical features.
And now we learn that in the last 20 years virtually nothing has changed.
Can you tell me what Sen. John McCain sees in Sarah Palin?.....
(Excerpt) Read more at bangornews.com ...
“John McCain, I know Hillary Clinton, Hillary Clinton is a friend of mine, and Mrs. Palin is no Hillary Clinton!”
Pat, I know weekly syndicated columnists, Weekly syndicated columnists are friends of mine. Pat, you're no weekly syndicated columnist.
I would take the headline as a compliment.
Thank God.
You issued the barf alert - but the headline sounds like a campaign slogan to me!
And on behalf of all the strong, independent mothers and women of the world....thank GOD the Governor is NOT hilllreee. Ha,ha,ha,
Ahh, it is now the season when the WOMEN libs are sent out as attack dogs against Ms. Palin, since the MSM pundits were exposed as the misogynists they are.
Ms Palin is attractive, smart, able to raise 5 beautiful children. She is no Hilary Clinton that is for sure....
Thank you, Lord Jesus. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you
Amen.
Bet your sweet bippie Sarah is no Hillary ... why should Sarah stoop to that level?
I would definitely agree with you on the headline. But, reading Pat’s column made me wanna blow chunks.
It’s Maine, fer cryin out loud—even the Massholes are embarassed by how liberal most of ME has become.
This Pat LaMarche broad is a member of Maine’s Green Party.
During the last election cycle, she ran for Governor of Maine on the Green Party ticket.
Thank God in Heaven Sarah Palin is no Hillary Clinton.
When I saw that headline, my first thought was “Yes, thank God she isn’t!”
I expect to see a lot of this. The PUMAs are a bigger threat to the Obama ticket than the MSM would like you to believe.
Scolding the PUMAs again. They’re not falling for it (thank God).
Thank you Lord. One Hillary is more than enough.
Thank you, Lord Jesus. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you
Amen.
