"Palin should be laughingstock to all feminists" is the title of Mary Mitchell's column in today's Chicago Sun-Times. In that calm, detached tone readers have come to expect, Mitchell begins:
Sarah Palin makes me sick. I hate that she was able to steal Barack Obama's mojo just by showing up wearing rimless glasses and a skirt.
I hate that she makes Joe Biden look like John McCain and John McCain look like the maverick he is not.
I hate that Palin reminds me of Susan Sarandon's feisty character in "Thelma & Louise." I loved Sarandon in that movie, yet I couldn't stand Palin's feistiness at the Republican National Convention.
Sarah Palin makes me sick -- not because she may speak in tongues -- but because she is a fast talker.
Not even ABC's Charlie Gibson can slow Palin's mouth.
There's yet another reason Mitchell's feeling nauseated:
Sarah Palin makes me sick because although black Democrats have been responsible for giving white candidates the boost they needed to beat their Republican opponents in tight races, these voters are now being insulted by feminists who say they will cross over into the McCain camp because of her.
So we know Mitchell's primary symptom, but what's the underlying cause? As it turns out, it's an all too common complaint among the many suffering from Palin Derangement Syndrome:
"Frankly, Sarah Palin scares me."
Don't feel lonely, Mary. It's going around these days.
Former New York mayor Ed Koch says of Palin, "She scares the hell out of me." Actor Matt Damon calls the GOP vice presidential candidate "terrifying." New Republic editor Noam Scheiber writes:
The reason Palin scares me has more to do with mechanics than demographics: Palin is such a sensation, and draws such large crowds, that anything she says--particularly attacks on Obama--immediately become part of the campaign conversation.
"Rock matriarch" - I guess that's a nice way of putting it - Sharon Osbourne admits, "I’m scared of that woman with the glasses and gun! Ugh!"
And at a Web site that boasts "the latest in green gossip," we learn that singer Pink "is terrified of Sarah Palin, says she 'hates women.'"
The fear and terror engendered by Sarah Palin among Obamatons make Adrian Monk look like John Wayne. Then again, this could be an opportunity. Over at the official Barack Obama site, there's a group designated Pagans for Obama. Perhaps the campaign could institute a group named Sissies for Obama.
Or would that be redundant?

Susan Sarandon's character was in the car that was intentionally driven off a cliff at the end of that movie. I can't think of a better example of liberal feminism at this juncture in American history.

September 13, 2008 - 12:55 ET by IamTinmanTheir original "Sarah Palin hates Eskimos" didn't fly. Every comment made by an opponent of Obama (first the Clintons and now the McCain/Palin campaign) is being parsed to see if it can possibly be construed as racist. Then the magpies in the media start pushing it out on the airwaves. It's just a tactic meant to minimize criticism of Obama.
That's hilarious!
September 13, 2008 - 17:28 ET by motherbeltMy other opinion is why would an individual who, to my knowledge, has
not hired any African-Americans on her gubernatorial staff, insist so
passionately on being on a television show owned and operated by an
African American, Oprah Winfrey?
Oh, please do....let's talk about hiring black people!
Oprah Winfrey has only one black person on her staff. That's right, one... Her hairstylist, Reggie. (That's probably because no white hair stylist can be trusted with African-American hair.)
And you can hear her crowing about it .....All these white folks, workin' for me!!! (Low volume...turn it up.)
Yeah, please, Ms. Juneteenth, let's talk about hiring black folks.
Right Kind Of Black
September 13, 2008 - 12:12 ET by Secret ConservativeJNoble: If Sarah was black, they'd just say she wasn't black ENOUGH, or she was an Uncle Tom or a "House N___" like they do with other black conservatives. So, just like attacking a woman is sexist and evil, unless said woman is a conservative and a Christian, attacking a black woman is racist and evil, unless she is a conservative Christian. Then she is fair game.
I love that the libs are self-destructing over Sarah Palin and showing their true "colors..."

Translation: "Where's our spoils of this racial politics war we've been marching in lock-step with you for all these years?"
Note the transference; Mitchell blames Palin for the supposed "betrayal" by her supposed "allies." The party of 1000 "alliances" is crumbling. It was never a "melting pot," and now the fractures are becoming apparent.
Mitchell's a bore... and a boor. It's always about race with her, especially when race has nothing to do with the story.

September 13, 2008 - 12:05 ET by smartestmaninamericaYou know, I can't think of a single reason feminist would hate and fear Sarah Palin other than the abortion issue.
I mean, in every other way, she is the feminist ideal: self-made woman, stands up to men, successful, working mother and so on.
And yet the hate and fear her? All because of abortion? They all scream that Sarah is a bad mom because her child didn't (effectively) use birth control. Exactly how many abortions are these women having and why aren't THEY using birth control?

September 13, 2008 - 14:00 ET by robert108Actually, the real reason is that Sarah's a Republican; worse yet, she's a conservative. So-called "feminism" has always been about the left wing.

September 13, 2008 - 12:01 ET by OklahomaIsShapedFunnyI am nervous about tonight.
Me = Palin-ite AND longtime SNL viewer.
I think this show and Tina Fey feel as if they will need to step up the ridicule to new heights tonight. I feel a thrashing of Sarah a-brewing.
It's expected. It's not going to be "news". But it's going to be echoed.
They were a "hit" last fall when they were the first to really play up the media's obsession of Obama. I think they want to have just as much impact in "taking down" Palin.
I'm going to watch. I'm going to barf.
SNL, I can't watch
September 13, 2008 - 12:10 ET by exLibWatching the Daily Show is like getting peed on and then laughed at while they are doing it.
I am sure SNL will be no better. I saw Tina Fey on WND's most dangerous liberals list. Her whole stint as "anchor" of SNLs "news sketch" was one long anti-Gop rant.
Figure this, it will be Personal and will be one huge chariacture of the liberal view of a stupid, redneck, racists Republican.

BTW, did you notice, all of a sudden Bore-ack is too pre-occupied by "Ike", and canceled his appearance?? I can just imagine someone in the campaign who pulled his head out for a moment of lucidity and said, "what the hell were you thinking?" If Obamatron had gone forward with this......another 3 to 5 % drop in his numbers. As it stands now....depending on how vicious they are, I predict this will turn more people off.

None of the Republicans I know HATE Obama, we just don't want to vote for him.
Still, everytime we see an article like this, it is a few more points for McCain/Palin. In their vitriole, the MSM is literally giving us this election.

What we were saying 18 months ago about Obama
September 13, 2008 - 12:07 ET by exLibFunny how experience didn't matter for 18 months for the PRESIDENT and now all of sudden the lack of experience of the VP "Frightens" Liberals the World Over".
We were all freaked out how the MEDIA gave Obama the "Rock Star" treatment and gave him a pass from day 1 and tried to put him in the White House. Yet along comes Palin, a grass-roots phenom, that the media tried to shoot down from day one, is popular despite all the HATE coming from everyone with a microphone.
As I have said before, with Liberals it's always personal. It's never about issue, it's I HATE PALIN. Did we say we HATE Obama? No, we hated the Media giving him a free pass. We hated his associations and policies.
Stewart on the Daily Show trotted out the "Palin is so extreme in her views on abortion". When Newt Gingrich tried to say that it was a POLICY Debate about abortion, since Obama was for infanticide, Stewart wouldn't let him speak, mocked him and the audience booed him. THAT is scary.
What is scary is that Obama NEVER gets serious media scrutiny, so if he get into the WH he can do whatever he wants. As we have seen Republicans get the magnifying glass on ALL aspects of you life from day one.
McCain has to get a copy of Monty Python's Holy Grail and the Bring out your dead sketch, with McCain being the one tossed on the pile and McCain saying "I'm not dead yet!!" That should be the new commerical.
Finally, isn't it ironic that every election cycle one of the biggest tatics of Democrats is to say that Republicans use "fear" to get votes? Now what are the Dems doing?

I really LOL's at a co-worker yesterday
September 13, 2008 - 12:31 ET by exLibThe "new" tactic is Palin vs Obama.
Somehow, the real "hypocrisy" now is that Republican wants the President to have some experience.
McCain, you see, is going to die, it has been ordained by the ones who know best.
The fact is, we all know either someone personally or through others that passed away at a young age and we also know people who have lived into their 100s.
My grandfather-in-law could have run and served as POTUS at age 90. It wasn't until he reached 101 that he started to lose it.
Also, they won't even entertain the idea that the VP could have some OJT.

Here is an observation:
September 13, 2008 - 12:34 ET by c5thenNotice how the "party of inclusion" of "tolerance" of the "rainbow coalition" starts more and more of their sentences with "I hate _____" and/or "______ makes me sick ..."?
I've also seen how many of the self-proclaimed 'feminists' are outraged at Governor Palin because she has the temerity of being a Republican and a conservative. Apparently their feminists views only extend to liberals and democrats. So they are exposed as partisan hypocrites.

September 13, 2008 - 12:41 ET by vtbse99c5then,
That's b/c the best place to hide is in plain sight. So if you're truly a racist and sexist, you hide with people who claim to be against racism and sexism. It's like the movie Bulletproof Monk, the human rights violators hid behind the human rights organization. It's the last place anyone would expect.

Quotes
September 13, 2008 - 13:14 ET by saw the light"...Palin is such a sensation, and draws such large crowds, that anything she says--particularly attacks on Obama--immediately become part of the campaign conversation."
Hmmm, does that sound like anyone else involved in the campaigns that have been going on since early last year? It seems that B. Hussein O. received the same treatment, although it is pretty much fact that the media covered and ran interference for him and are actively attacking Palin.
"I hate that she makes Joe Biden look like John McCain..."
Excuse me, Ms. Mitchell. Joe Biden couldn't clean dog crap off of John McCain's shoes. Biden has done nothing in the Senate for the past 36 years but talk incessantly.

So she's mad at Palin because feminists are going to vote for her over BHO. Aren't you mad at the wrong people? Shouldn't you be mad at the shallow feminists who are going to vote genitalia over skin color? It's not Palin's fault that Dems have banked on the wrong minority status.
She's Sick??
September 13, 2008 - 13:21 ET by northoneWhat's really making poor Mary sick is the fact that Palin is such a threat to The Great One. It's hilarious that the MSM is finally admitting it.
Keep 'em on the Plantation
September 13, 2008 - 13:42 ET by Copperhead Ridge"Sarah Palin makes me sick because although black Democrats have been
responsible for giving white candidates the boost they needed to beat
their Republican opponents in tight races, these voters are now being
insulted by feminists who say they will cross over into the McCain camp
because of her."
Democrats think everything should be for the party. I know Dems who make me think they have telescreens in their houses and salivate at each day's "Two Minutes of Hate."
Don't think for a minute that they do anything out of the goodness of their hearts (collective, of course). Remember when they lost the 2004 election, they started whining about how much government assistance goes into states that voted for Bush.
So, they expect a return on their investment. Only, the investment is made with other people's money.
Democrats are big spenders when they are spending other people's money. They like to write big checks when the money is coming out of someone else's bank account.
I guess I'm just a prole.

I think Michelle Malkin hit the nail right on the head with the title of one of her books...she called this phenomenon afflicting the left, "Unhinged", and she was right.
While there is a small measure of those on the extreme right that venture into "looney" territory, it is nothing that even approaches the level of what we see on the left.

September 13, 2008 - 15:32 ET by Mike BatesFor someone from Chicago who must know what a lousy job Barack did as State Senator to want him as President is unimaginable.
It may have been lousy, but we know he was at least "present" almost 130 times.
Right...
September 13, 2008 - 15:56 ET by PrairieSky"...but we know he was at least "present" almost 130 times."
That fact, among many, many others, is what should give people pause about voting for Obama. What a wimpy thing to do-Vote present? Geez, guy, take a stand and declare yes or no!
What's Obama going to do as president when faced with a tough decision that he's struggling with? As president, to quote an old football-related phrase, you can't drop back ten yards and punt...You have to take a stand and make the tough decisions. There is no voting "present" in the oval office.

I will never EVER understand the left. Do they want our candidates to be socialistic, coke-snorting, spouse-beating, tax-cheating, lying criminals? Is that it? Their hypocrisy simply knows no bounds.

What A Bimbo
September 13, 2008 - 19:49 ET by SquonkamaticOK so last week I defended Roger Ebert's opinion piece begging voters to "save the republic" from Sarah Palin, saying that Ebert's opinion should be respected so long as it was framed in the context of an opinion piece. Yes he was hard on Mrs. Palin and cited her lack of world travel as a disqualifier for her candidacy, which is absurd (did Abraham Lincoln do Europe on $5 a day while in his youth?), but his piece was written with a conviction that while I disagree with I could respect. That's just Roger Ebert for you.
THIS woman's comments however are disgraceful, insulting, miniscule, paranoiac, base, derogatory, petty, vindictive, prejudicial, groundless, infantile, self serving, poorly written elitist bullsh*t. I am not familiar with this writer but the Sun-Times should be ashamed to have her speaking for their paper. Shoe is on the other foot this time. Then again I must be a sexist and a bigot for pointing out that Roger Ebert -- while misguided and too preoccupied with a side issue that isn't relevant -- actually knows how to write a decent editorial that won't make readers roll their eyes at being patronized. I hope this dimwit and all the other dimwits cited continue to let their tongues wag, it will only motivate more people to realize aside from a few exceptions how infantile and untrustworthy the left is.
Anyone who thinks up this kind of crap has to be some sort of retarded idiot, and the only people who will believe any of it are also retarded idiots. I hope.

These are not things feminists approve of. Although Ms. Mitchell is wearing lipstick, it isn't doing very much good.

Not that long ago there was speculation that the democrats would pick up more seats in the congress and now it is a real possibility that they will lose some, I don't know yet if we will regain control but at least now it is a horse race, since the democrats approval numbers have been and still are in the tank.
