So predictable that the slinging now extends to Palin's first dude hubby. The entire article is so sneaky with an obvious intention to imply that Palin has a hubby puppeteer that directs and manages her governmental actions and affairs. Oh this is such a clear sexist messaging that Palin can't do much without the husband taking on a co-governer role. What? Another Hillary scenario rearing its head? The gal has a meddling husband as does Hillary and neither woman can control their spouses even though they have run campaigns, launched complex policy, been elected by entire states? Oh my, they are such damsels incapable of thinking on their own...

Ok, so you get the picture. I am tired of the heavy-handed media sexism that is being manufactured to intentionally malign and downgrade the sheer will and talent of these two great women candidates (political positions aside)

Stop this shit.

Nice article, but the logic goes awry when we just stop and realize how the very man the voters are going to endorse in this election, Obama, does not believe in gay marriage and has been highly visible in many forums stating such. The idea that the followers of Obama, will override his very explicit endorsement of gay bigotry at the Saddleback forum, in which he exhuded confident and exacting religious views that specifically exclude lesbians and gays from legal marriage, for example, and vote against the vehicle that aligns them with their leader's views is highly unlikely. No, it is more likely that the real Obama Effect will be one that kills the very notion of the equality that has been so hard fought here in California. Who is responsible? Obama. He did not come through for gays and lesbians when it really counted--when he was asked to help more fully. He instead sent mixed messages that were dependent on his audience. Yes, the audience. God knows Obama works the audidence with whatever he can. In the end, when he said that "I believe that marriage should be between a man and a woman" he really did throw us all under that sweet bus called *opportunism" and there is nothing else to say except that he must accept his role in propagating this bigotry against us.

Please understand folks that this is saying, "Yes, we are going to have a KKK president giving the invocation at the start of the inaugural ceremony (yes they wrap their events up on god and country too by saying the pledge of allegiance and praying at their events too), but we will have a Civil Rights leader at the end of the inaugural to close the ceremony."

So tell me, how is this a good thing and how does Obama justify this? I for one do not like to associate with people who compare homosexualiy with pedephila and beastiality, which Rick Warren has. But apparently Obama seeks approval from these father figures. I think it his need for this approval from those who don't like him that will be the biggest problem of all. Obama has a pattern of needing this acceptance. I think it is because he never had a sense of place, and so he seeks it through people who would otherwise find him unacceptable. He has no core values in this way. He is demonstrating this with Rick Warren. I find it disturbing, cowardly, and dispicable. I will not be watching this innaugaration and I know many others who won't be either. Maybe it is just a few percent of us folks who will stand our ground against blatent bigotry. So be it. Someone has to and it won't be our leader, Obama doing it. No, he is clearly embracing bigotry. That is the truth.

Hillary continues to amaze us with her resiliency. She is a courageous, brilliant woman and if there had not been an overwhelmingly unfair, sexist, biased media dragging her down into the mud, she would have been our president. The best of us were fooled into the Obama-Rama. There is no doubt. Yes, Obama will always be special, but because of his race at this point, not policy, as he has none at this point. He cannot be pinned down on much. He has done nothing to have the adoration that he has at this point in his political career. His work has been thin at best. He has few opinions and weighs in on very little that is difficult or risky. He will always be adored because he is the first black to gain the presidency. Let's see if he actually EARNS his stripes with something memorable in terms of policy. At this point, he is still a bunch of pretty talk, while endorsing everything he said he would not. What's that all about?
