“It is an honor to call her a sister. . . America, this is what a feminist looks like.”
-Shelly Mandell, president of the National Organization for Women’s Los Angeles chapter

“Wow, and thank you too Shelly for that kind introduction, and thank you so much for your endorsement, and with your help, Shelly, in November, all of us, who consider ourselves progressive, yet at the same time we can be conservative, we’re gonna shatter the highest, hardest glass ceiling in America.

I was looking at Shelly’s resume before I came out here and I thought ‘Woo, there’s some diversity! I like this, it’s good.’ And, because, maybe this is the only time that I would get an endorsement like this, or an introduction, I’ve gotta share with you, it’s like kinda providential, yesterday what happened to me, I can use this today after that introduction from Shelly, I’m readin’ on my Starbuck’s mocha cup, okay, the quote of the day? You’ll never believe what the quote was. It was Madeleine Albright, former Secretary of State, and U.N. Ambassador. And Madeleine has as her quote of the day for Starbuck’s — now she said it, I didn’t — she said, ‘There’s a place in hell for women who don’t support other women.’

Okay, now thank you so much for receiving that well. I did’t know how that was gonna go over. And now, California, let’s see, what a comment like I just made, how that is turned into whatever it’ll be turned into tomorrow in the newspaper.”

(According to CBS News’ Scott Conroy, Palin got the quote slightly wrong. Albright actually said, “There is a place in hell reserved for women who don’t help other women.”)

- Sarah Palin, Rally 10/04/08

What are you trying to say Sarah is a liberal? Man that's so weak it's almost comical. Talk about PDS. You go ahead and post this nonsense for the next two years and when I find out who your candidate is they'll be on my ____ list. Pitiful argument.

Is this the best you got? If you are going to label her as a political progressive, you better have something relevant.

I certainly would agree with the context of her speech that she is “progressive” in the societal sense of not being representative of a “traditional” female role, wouldn’t you?

I think your point is ridiculous and unfounded.
