“What would you suggest she do, resign her governorship?”
________________
What does a charity event, right to life dinner, Down’s syndrome event (GOP fundraiser where Gingrich spoke, Baseball game with Guliani) have to do with her governorship?
How many times did she attend charity event, right to life dinner, Down’s syndrome event before she had been the VP candidate?
I don’t even know what the hell you’re getting at. Are you suggesting that using her fame to raise over a million dollars for charities she believes in over 5 days is somehow her fault for inviting media scrutiny?
I’m very sorry I even bothered responding to you. Good-bye.
Calm down and take a deep breath.
My comment is completely pro-Palin.
She would be better served, and her 2012 ambitions would be better served, if she were less exposed. She does not need national publicity in 2009. It is a no win situation at this point. All if does is make her a target for the left and MSM and has no up side for her.
Is it really presidential for her to get in the gutter with a late night talk show buffoon (Letterman)? Does it help her to have a public brush up with GOP members of Congress and Gingrich?
Return to Alaska, do a fantastic job and come back in 2011 with a long list of accomplishments to crow about. Things that she did as a successful governor while the Dem whitehouse and legislature runs the country into the ground will be refreshing.
IF she is over exposed she will end up looking like just another politician rather then an outsider.
Palin is a faithful wife and mother of five. She dresses nicely, but not provocatively. She is beautiful and not afraid to show her femininity. How this equates to being “slutty” or “sexualizing” a campaign, I don’t know. I so admire how she doesn’t feel like she has to look like a man or sound like a man to be taken seriously. She is an amazing WOMAN, not a feminist man wannabe, who eschewed a husband and family for “bigger” things. I think this has more to do with Kathleen’s jealousy of Palin’s looks, family, and success compared to her own. Dave is just a hateful, bitter, misogynist pervert. No “conservative” should lend credence to anything he has to say.
Maybe she's just one of those moderate extremists like Colin Powell. The ones who are *allegedly* Republican or conservative, yet somehow never seem to anything but sandbag their own side.

Politics is their job. Do regular folks haul their kids around with them on work days?
That aside, Letterman is still a sleazeball and I have written letters to CBS and to some of his show's sponsors.
If Letterman had made a comment like that about one of the Obama kids, he’d be hanging from a lampost on 57th street, DEAD, right now....
Letterman is a has been ugly not funny fool!
SHE ASKED FOR IT.
NOW says that there is no such thing as a c*cktease. That rape is rape. So is verbal sexual assault.
I totally disagree with you. The Palins should stand up for their family. They have been hit time and time again by lame comics who get laughs by stupid crowds of drones! Sarah Palin should do just what she is doing and most of us respect her for sticking up for her family.
>>Politics is their job. Do regular folks haul their kids around with them on work days?<<
Why yes, we do. If it is a special occasion, like an award or presentation.
I saw Palin live. She didn’t have any of her children with her. At the conventions or when she accepted her nominations, it was correct for them to be there.
I was with my Dad when he received a man of the year award at work. About the same thing.
"Kathleen Parker: After Interviews, Palin Should Bow Out"
Staggering bigotry of Kathleen Parker - UPDATED"
Yes, and we should stand up, too. We need to strongly attack the double-standard in the media and not let it continue any longer. We tend to say "oh, that's the way it is."
IMO we need to stop this appeaser's approach to these things and kill the double standard once and for all.
When you write for a living and you’re not very good at it, this is what you have to resort to. Otherwise, she’d have to light her hair on fire to get any attention.
She’s a non-entity. The “conservative” columnist that no conservative had ever heard of. Like a more masculine version of David Brock.
the usual suspects
RINOs, antiPalinites, and .... none other than Mitt Romney (again, and again and again).
******************
Oy vey. I should have known.
Sarah most certainly did not "sexualize" her candidacy, unless simply being an attractive woman makes one guilty of self-sexualizing. I guess Kathleen Parker thinks Sarah should have disfigured herself or worn a bag over her head. The left gets scarier by the minute.
I hope KP doesn’t tell the 20k people that went to see the Gov in NY last weekend that she is fading. May come as a shock to some of them little peons.
Please IGNORE this nobody. Don’t give traffic to her online articles, or send complaints to her. That is what she wants. She does outrageous attacks on Palin to increase her own visibility. Let her wallow in her obscurity, as she craves media attention.
