Palin’s ‘pit bull’ line is dog of GOP convention
Kansas City Star ^ | 9/14/08 | RHONDA CHRISS LOKEMAN

Posted on 09/13/2008 10:11:08 PM PDT by DallasBiff

No matter what the Republican revisionists say, history will record that it was not a Democratic man who threw the live grenade of sexism into a crowded national political convention in 2008. It was a Republican woman.

It was Gov. Sarah Palin, John McCain’s impetuous pick to be his vice president.

In an otherwise punchy acceptance speech by a relative unknown, Gov. Palin chose to mar her big moment with a wink, a smile and a pox on all her sisters’ houses.

Thanks to her and the rowdies at the GOP national convention, we finally have the answer to that metaphysical riddle: “Who let the dogs out?” Some of us have been losing sleep over that one. Well, that and why community organizers have become the Willie Hortons and welfare moms of this election cycle.

Palin’s “pit bull with lipstick” line surely will go down in history — if not the Feminism Hall of Shame — as one of the dumbest things a trailblazing smart woman ever said in public on this side of Stepford.

OMG, this is crazy. She was telling a joke that is common among hockey moms. Most people have heard it before, and this bitch (sorry) needs to get a sense of humor.
I love how the media try to paint Sarah as dumb and unsophisticated. She’s smarter than they will ever be.

Where are all of these African-American “writers” coming from? I don’t remember there being this many of them prior to Sarah Palin’s selection as VP.

You can always tell a liberal woman by how many last names she has.

It’s hard to get ahead of the pack on absurd Palin stories/editorials but this woman goes to the head of the line.

I wonder who the lucky man is for this jewel of humanity?

i’m sure her own racism escapes her self awareness

Sounds like major PMS to me .... but what do I know. I’m only a guy that’s been married for 32 years.

My wife joined the GOP and is ordering Palin t-shirts since the convention. Prior to that she could have cared less about politics. I bet there are millions out there like that. Obama is in big trouble.

It was a Republican woman.

OK, so now the left is admitting Sarah is in fact a woman?

“I love how the media try to paint Sarah as dumb and unsophisticated.”

Yes they think this is a good plan. What they do not realize is regular “folks” across the country relate to her and therefore find these little attacks insulting. Quite frankly I hope they never listen to Kristen Powers, because she seems to be 1 of about 4 of them that get it.

Didn’t the “Palin makes me sick” column come out today too? Geez, they are really losing it.

I know 3 woman at work just like that. They did not relate to or care about any of this until Sarah.

Wow, the hatred goes SO deep, it’s amazing. How could a woman they say they don’t know fill Leftists with such hatred?

Oh - prejudice. That’s how.

Damn, lady, it was a JOKE! You know, surely SOMEONE has told you one at some time or other—a friend, neighbor, colleague, husband (probably not)? I fail to see how this has endangered the reputations of thoughtful, professional, committed women everywhere! I think it is more a case of disingenuous, faux feminists realizing they have been “outed”. The panic among your ranks tells us who you really are—rabid liberals who are realizing there probably won't be an Obamification of the planet!

Looks like an Obama convert and follower...

Consider the source folks...
