Before I get into how the DUmmies are already attacking Sarah Palin, let me congratulate the Democrat ticket of Obama bin Biden for choosing Beaver County, Pennsylvania for their campaign kickoff. That is why Li'l Beaver is making his cameo appearance in this edition of the DUmmie FUnnies. Okay, now for Sarah Palin. Oddly enough, your humble correspondent was good buddies as a youngster with an Eskimo from Alaska. And the strangest thing about this is that this was when I was living in Puerto Rico. Fred Duncan might have been the ONLY Eskimo in Puerto Rico. I sure...

I just went over there to look at their "Latest" page..of 45 articles posted, 34 were about Sarah Palin (AND her husband, AND her daughter), (could be more but I didn't click the titles to see what they were actually about), 2, count them, 2 were about Obama, the rest are other stuff.. McCains choice has certainly knocked the Anointed One off the radar, even to those dedicated followers.. heh..I said it earlier, this was a brilliant move by McCain..

Not Every Woman Supports Women's Rights August 29, 2008 Statement of NOW PAC Chair Kim Gandy on the Selection of Sarah Palin as John McCain's Vice Presidential Pick Sen. John McCain's choice of Alaska governor Sarah Palin as his running mate is a cynical effort to appeal to disappointed Hillary Clinton voters and get them to vote, ultimately, against their own self-interest. Gov. Palin may be the second woman vice-presidential candidate on a major party ticket, but she is not the right woman. Sadly, she is a woman who opposes women's rights, just like John McCain. The fact that Palin...

Women are not fungible. I don’t know if anyone sitting around with John McCain in the last few days has explained that to him; frankly, I don’t know if there even were any women sitting around with John McCain in the last few days. But, I think I understand a few things about Hillary’s base in the Democratic party, and why so many women have been so loyal to her, and if John McCain thinks that simply picking another person with similar anatomy is going to win their votes, he’s about to learn a very important lesson in gender politics....

“Not again!” I thought to myself this morning, as news trickled out that John McCain was set to pick Alaska governor Sarah Palin as his running mate. Not again, because too often women are promoted for the wrong reasons, and then blamed when things don’t go right. Don’t get me wrong: what I know of Palin (which admittedly isn’t much), I kind of like. I don’t agree with her politics. But in her two years in Alaska’s state house, she’s shown herself to be a scrappy reformer, a no-nonsense manager, and a consistent conservative. She’s also a mother of five,...

CNN's talking head has twice suggested that Gov Palin will either be neglecting her children if she is VP or won't be able to do the VP job because of her children. He especially focused on the Down's Syndrome child because of the child's special needs.
