A woman — but why this woman? [Sarah Palin]
The Baltimore Sun ^ | 1 Sep 2008 | Susan Reimer

Posted on 09/01/2008 8:37:27 AM PDT by maica

So. This is what being pandered to feels like.

John McCain picked Sarah Palin, governor of Alaska and mother of five, to be his running mate to woo women like me.

He seems to think that my girlfriends and I are so disappointed that an utterly qualified woman is not going to be president that we will jump at the chance to vote for an utterly unqualified woman for vice president.

You gotta love a guy who thinks things are that simple.

Women already outvote men in this country, and it isn't because we like voting for all those women on the ballot.

Does McCain think we will be so grateful for a skirt on the ticket that we won't notice that she's anti-abortion, a member of the NRA and thinks creationism should be taught alongside evolution?

You can add Harry Truman’s accidental presidency to your list.

Leftists don’t have a vocabulary problem as much as an honesty problem. They lie to themselves and then believe their own lies.

That is a maelstrom from which they cannot find a way out, so they just thrash around.

Further proof that mainstream feminism is not about gender equity but is about liberal / leftist policies.

I think your report is much more likely in homes across America than the nastiness of Susan Reimer and her age group of committed-to-the-cause-of-abortion women.

And I think the dems know it! and are already in mourning!

btw, Nancy Pelosi is also the mother of five, so they cannot use the number of children to criticize Sarah.

I stopped reading when I saw it was from the BS (Baltimore Sun), second only to the NYT as a Dem party organ. I prefer not to read blatant propaganda so soon after breakfast.

Agree with you totally about the SUN.

I heard about the article on a morning talk show. The host just mentioned it, intending to do “labor day special’ topics. His callers kept on this dreadful column for the whole three hours.

Comments on the Sun’s website about this article have passed 400.

There are so many vile people in the world, that it is probably not a wise idea to publicize the image and whereabouts of either military son too much.

Thanks for the picture.........when I read the article, an image of what the author must look like popped into my head, and this is along the lines of what I imagined.

Nothing surprising about this article. Her picture explains it all.

Sarah Palin disqualified herself from wooing the vote of Susan Reimer when she decided to not abort even one of her children.

I absolutely hope that everyone will notice it. I still believe that those are winning issues.

Half the population (approx) is for abortion.
Half the population (approx) is female.

So for anyone to believe that all women are for abortion, they have to believe that all men are against it.
It doesn't work out that way.

I won’t even pick up the Baltimore Sun’s free paper. Give me the D.C. Examiner.

Never saw a copy but I probably wouldn't read it if I ever had. A decade or so ago, I had a Clinton joke page on the web. It was a personal thing with a little bit of a following (I had 2 million hits by the time I closed up shop on 1/21/01.) When the Lewinski thing hit the fan, I got a sudden influx of interest. Here's the thing, I managed to keep in G or PG rated as far as the jokes went. And I didn't fall into the trap of doing Lewinksi jokes because that would've been letting Bill and Hil off the hook. Not my goal.

Anyway, I was interviewed by phone by Jeff Upton (IIRC) who spent most of the call inquiring about doctored Monica porn images. I didn't run that sort of thing. He really didn't care what I did run.

Oh, and I called him in response to an email. He never offered to call me back so that the call would be billed to his office instead of mine.
