Original article: Sexism and Sarah Palin

Ah, yes...here is some sexism.

The pomposity of Obama. With his elite family background in which his father abandon's his mother. Being raised a black child by a single white mother, then by his maternal grandparents. What nerve...how dare you attend Ivy league schools without a famous or rich lineage.

Too bad gay marriage wasn't around back when he was younger. He could have married Bill Clinton to get his political credentials.

Of course, maybe you enjoyed watching Obama being taken to the shed by the "Naughty Librarian" Sarah Palin. Maybe that is a fetish of yours.

@The Nortorious W.E.S.

Original article: Britain to ban sexist ads?

Attention George Orwell...

your needed in G.B. Big Sister wants to make sure that the little girls aren't offended. Revolting.

Original article: What do we want? Firepits!

What really should offend you...

is that 80% of all purchasing decisions are made by a population that purporedly earns only 78 cents per dollar. Isn't it shameful that a particular part of the population spends so much money in such a frivilous way? I mean really. Rampant consumerism is repugnant.

Original article: Wanna be on top?

Yay!

Now that women have made in roads into traditionally male jobs, it is time for us faux girls to make in roads into traditionally female activities.

Agrarian soceity is not the human default.

I would like someone smarter than me to explain how this fits in with the most primitive types of social constructs: hunter/gathers. For instance, the Yanamamo Indians beat their wives regularly, and the women in that society expect to be abused. When I say abused, I don't mean the expansive definition of upper class white woman of abuse, but abuse in the form of being chased out of your house with a machete. Warfare is common in the society, as is raids for stealing women.

Woo hoo!

Yay! for our side.

It will be interesting to watch if white women...

slit their own throats. If healthcare, equitable tax policy, social services, legititmate regulation of markets and industry, infrastructure and a belief in "We The People," gets trumped by Palin's vagina, I will laugh my ass off, in order to prevent myself from crying.

Original article: A pile of Palin sexism

Forget whether...

I demand to know

whether she wears boxers or briefs...er..huh, how she looks in a bikini before I vote.

Talk too much?

Yes

It is a testiment

about the MSM, corporate media, and access journalists that it took The View to ask McCain any questions of substance. American media sucks. Like CBS News chief foreign correspondent Lara Logan told Jon Stewart on the Daily Show, if she was forced to watch Amercian media, "I'd blow my brains out."

Old people's fascination with teen sex...

is more fascinating than the teen sex itself. It is the one outrage creepy conservatives and shoulder pad feminists can share.

heterosexist here.

I object to calling same sex unions marriage, and I will vote for proposition 8, here in California. Good for the couple. If they get enough press, I am sure plenty of others will consider voting yes on 8 as well.
