Sarah Palin: Libs Hate Her Because She's Beautiful, Not Like That Michelle Obama

The Houston Press ^ | 6/23/10

Texas Tech, that bastion of Americanism way out there in Lubbock, has done it again.

This time they're not protesting a statue that allegedly features Commies and lesbians, nor are they linking tattoos to social deviance.

This time, they're saying liberals hate Sarah Palin because she's beautiful, and libs prefer dogs like Eleanor Roosevelt, Hillary Clinton and Elena Kagan. Well, at least one Red Raider is.

A.W.R. Hawkins writes an online column for the conservative Human Events and proudly lists in his bio that he has a Ph.D. in military history from Tech. Which makes him an expert on dames, apparently.

Libs and Dems hate Sarah Palin because she's for smaller government, he writes in his latest column; they hate her because she didn't go to an Ivy League school and they hate her because "she chose to carry her Down Syndrome baby to term instead of aborting it. (That last one really drives them crazy.)"

But what really sets these abortion-loving atheists off? "[A]ll these reasons are trumped by the fact that they despise her beauty," he writes.

As a member of the media, we supposedly knew this already:

The double standard resides here: When Palin dresses in nice clothes reporters act like she's being ostentatious, but when Mrs. Obama does it reporters are taken aback by her glamour. Yet the dirty little secret is that Palin could don a $90.00 dress from Wal-Mart and steal the show from a diamond covered Mrs. Obama any day, and the media knows it. Got it. The analysis goes even deeper, hard as it may be to believe:

[T]he left criticizes that which they fear. We also have to keep in mind the fact that all the names they throw at Palin are really code words for "Dang, that woman looks good."

And who can blame them for noticing? After all, since the 1930s they've spent their time supporting women who looked like Eleanor Roosevelt, Hillary Clinton, Janet Reno, Tipper Gore, and Elena Kagan.

Suffice it to say there isn't a lot of pinup potential in that list. Texas Tech represent!!! No fatties allowed!

She could be “dryin’ out” too.

I don’t get why Sarah would be compared with Michelle. Michelle is a nice looking lady. Sarah is a beautiful lady made more so by her inspiring and energizing countenance.

Neither lady needs to worry about their looks or feel competitive toward the other.

According to the Time Magazine caption, she was “sliding into position” on the stage.

Time Magazine:
“The First Lady slides into her spot alongside other G-20 spouses before a group photo at the Royal Opera House.”

But I think somehow a sizable portion of the public hears that voice and decides she is “stupid,” which she most certainly is not.

She wouldn't disclose her reading list to Katie Colonic and the leftist meme is that she's illiterate.

Who wants to give the NYTimes website et al a bump/plug?

Meanwhile our quota president has NOT read the Arizona bill he so strongly opposes yet he managed to get around to reading an interview with a General in Rolling Stoned Magazine.

President GW Bush was a voracious reader yet the media never much commented on it.

"Could it be what Sarah says and stands for, and the lefts knee-jerk reaction to anyone and anything decent, rather than her looks? Michele and what she looks like is a non-issue in my opinion."

I believe it's a combo of both. Sarah IS a beautiful woman....inside and out. She has a large family, including a down syndrome baby, which the left DESPISES she didn't abort, as most of them have done.

We talk about michelle my belle's looks because the lame stream media talks about how beautiful she is and how well she dresses.

We MUST ALWAYS combat lies!

She slides into every appearance?

That is like when the media claiming that Jackie Kennedy was “going for help” when she got the hell out of the moving limo because shots were being fired.

Whatever she was doing, it obviously wasn't very lady-like.

IMHO what inflames liberals about Sarah Palin is that she is not only attractive but does not come across as the blithering bumpkin they expect in their stereotypical view of conservative women. Liberal women, including my wife and her sister, ridicule everything Palin says as being stupid, idiotic and uneducated. Michelle Obama and Hillary Clinton do not come across as being that smart and have made some terrible gaffs in public statements. The Obama's in particular have made some terrible faux pas overseas and in the foreign press are ridiculed as clods.

Dear God. I always thought that was Photoshopped.

Depends on the lady:

You're not alone. Took me a while to track down the source (Time Magazine).

MO takes tons of makeup, wigs, straps, belts and numerous artists to make her look good.

She can’t don a simple outfit and a small amount of makeup to look good like a Sarah Palin. It probably takes hours to fix up MO before an event.

I guess it is a testament that talent can make a sows ear appear as a silk purse for major events.

Sarah is not only good looking, she is tougher than Barry or Michelle.

[chris_bdba]

It’s true. Just look at any liberal woman over 35 and you will clearly see that few are attractive. It’s as if the ugly inside makes it’s way out? I truely think it is the happiness factor. Liberals are never happy even when they get what they want.

[<1/1,000,000th%]

The left doesn’t like Sarah because she can beat Obama at basketball.

She actually played.

Palin is hot. She also loves America. Michelle is not. And she hates America. Predictable that liberals would prefer Michelle. Normal that real Americans would LOVE Palin.
