I'm not a Sarah Palin supporter, but let's not as progressive people use sexist images to tear a woman down when it's convenient for our purposes. Imagine our outrage if the conservative media started dressing Hillary up in S&M drag!
wow, check out the transphobia here. in my view, you're a woman if you say you're a woman. and you're a good model if people like to look at your pictures.
also, for the trans-ignorant: stop calling isis a "preop". as if the "op" - or the genetalia - are the end all be all of gender identity.
isis is a woman and, to be frank, more feminine than many of the lumbering rednecks ANTM has on this season. and she knows her stuff. so give her some respect.
I'm not a Palin supporter, but having lived in Alaska, and being aware of the history and effects of colonization there - I can certainly understand the movement for succession. And I dont think those sentiments are at all extremist in the context of Alaskan culture and politics - esp if you husband is a Native Alaskan.
I agree that Palin has given a good media performance to date, however much I may dislike her stance on social issues. Had Obama been a bit more wise, he would have chosen Hillary for VP and captured media attention by pulling together the highly-anticipated and highly-unlikely "dream ticket". I have no idea what was happening behind the scenes there, but Biden is no substitute for the spark that could have been.
