Newsweek: Palin 'Inflicts' Her Religion on US, She's 'Not a Woman'

The racist Reverend Wright wanted God to "damn America." Jesse Jackson called New York City "hymie town." Various Evangelical preachers have been heard to utter some pretty nasty comments here and there, as well. So, flawed as we are, apparently being religious doesn't preclude a venomous diatribe now and again. And now comes hate wrapped as political commentary from another supposed person of faith, this time in Newsweek. Wendy Doniger is a columnist for Newsweek's "On Faith" beat and is also the Mircea Eliade Distinguished Service Professor of the History of Religions at the University of Chicago’s Divinity School. But that doesn't seem to have made her less of a venom spewing, wiled-eyed Republican hater, unfortunately. Naturally, like all women such as herself, all her hate is directed at Governor Sarah Palin -- also showing that these sorts of women aren't interested in helping strong women to public influence but only their kind of mindless ideologue is acceptable.

Doniger starts her hate-filled rant in All Beliefs Welcome, Unless They are Forced on Others with what will shortly turn out to be a lie compounded by a blind assumption based on no proof to shore up her claims that Sarah Palin's exclusively allows her religious beliefs to direct her public actions....

She claims to be "religious"? She is just a hater and little else. What a scum-bag.

Democrat Feminism = riding your husbands name, money and coattails to prominence.

Republican Feminism = Making it on your own credentials

Well, of course not. The University of Chicago Divinity School is a haven for atheists.

It is unfortunate that such scum have infiltrated our formerly great universities. She has her own version of the world as her foundation for teaching religion. She tells others how to solve problems of the world; problems she avoided by becoming a professor.

U of Chicago? The same Chicago Barry comes from?

Who'd a thunk it?

Cheers!

Slobs like this SOB use any excuse to make garbage statements about Palin.

Even on ESPN this morning, while I was eating breakfast, I was watching the Mike and Mike show and ESPN gave the updates portion of the show and some guy named "Michael Kim", a Korean I think, said something about "change needed with some team" and then stated: "and not lipstick on a pig change." A direct slam at Palin and on a sports program also. They are all pure garbage. Even the so called sports people at these TV networks are liberals. This is not the first time I have heard shots at a republican or conservative on these puking sports shows.

U of Chicago is the leader in free-market thinking. Obama was just a part-time lecturer there.

“She’s ‘Not a Woman’”

Dick Cheney in drag?

The University of Chicago Divinity School is a haven for atheists people who believe in their own divinity.

Lonely, bitter woman with a house full of cats. Just a guess.

Could it be that Doniger is just a camouflaged version of Madalyn Murray O'Hair?

Oh ... wait ... Doniger is alive, isn't she?

Sorry ... I couldn't tell from the picture.

"Her greatest hypocrisy is in her pretense that she is a woman"

That sentence is so bizarre it's impossible to comment on.

[WakeUpAndVote]

She would look good in a burka.

[oblomov]

WAS the leader in free market thinking. It has been infiltrated by crypto-Keynesians in the interest of “diversity”. The torch has been passed to George Mason University and Auburn.

[Reaganesque]

...claims that Sarah Palin's exclusively allows her religious beliefs to direct her public actions....

And if this were true...so what? If she believes in certain principles, why wouldn't she act upon them both privately and publicly? See, most of us peons see that as "walking the walk". I guess this Lib is admitting she prefers only those who "talk the talk" and nothing more. "Just words..."

RE “Joe Biden’s views are most relevant to the question at hand, since, as a Catholic, he shares much of Palin’s embryological theology: he believes life begins at conception. But he has gone out of his way to insist that he would not impose his personal views on others, and has indeed voted against curtailing abortion rights and against criminalizing abortion. That is the right answer. It’s in the Constitution. It’s not in the Bible, or the Qu’ran, or the Bhagavad Gita. It’s in the mother-lovin’ Constitution.” (the link you give)

The two things that get me in this are pro-life is ‘personal views’ and ‘it’s in the constitution’. I am not anti-abortion myself but this is pure crap, taking other peoples opposing political views and defining them ‘personal’ and ‘unconstitutional’. What constitution? The Human constitutions : Ginsberg, Breyer, Chuck Shumer???

Neoliberalism is truly a mental disorder.

And this feminazi can certainly be religious, in the Religion of Liberal Democrat Abortive Feminism.

LOL!
Ever notice the women who make whacko statements like this have a similar look to them?
