bttt
Once Rush or The Great One hold forth there is very little to add.
Thanks for the ping.
The insiders know the ladies will put an end to their chicanery.
Does She ever take a bad picture, Onyx? Honestly, there must be one somewhere. LOL
As a male conservative I am only too willing, and happy, to wrest the helm from the men and let the gals steer. The latter certainly could do no worse and in all likelihood will surpass their male counterparts. Especially that wee lady up there in Wasilla.
Thanks for the ping! Sarah is going to be in Waco tomorrow night. I wish I could go to the event!
And it's not just the democrats, but some on our side as well. I don't dispute the blogger's assertion that the left and some on our side's obsession with Sarah is due to status anxiety. But the blogger doesn't get to the root of the problem: their sexism. That is, that such status anxiety is a manifestation of a sexist problem. So the core of the problem is rooted in their sexism, which leads them to their status anxiety. These individuals, mostly men, feel threatened of being displaced in the hierarchy of society by a woman, and some women have a problem accepting another woman as a political leader as well.
Notice how the attacks by these individuals aren't simply directed at i.e Sarah Palin's, Nikki Haley's, Christine O'Donnell, and Sharron Angle's policies, but rather are pointed at their sexual nature: sexualizing them and diminishing them by depicting them as sexual objects, sluts, and bimbos (as they call them). They hardly ever discuss them in term of their policies but rather made up stories, 1/2 truths, and lots of sexual innuendo about them in an effort to minimize them and their impact. Unfortunately, this animus has taken not just the crazy leftists but includes some of our own, self-described conservatives.
However, those who are secure in their manhood or womanhood don't have a problem with a politician that happens to be a woman and a leader, so any discussion and analysis is directed at their politics, policies, and issues instead of their sex.
