loved this article rebecca! you told it the way that it should be said!

anyway, about palin and her attitudes. in some ways, I can identify with sarah palin on a few things. the disdain of metropolitan people and their often phony, corporate lifestyles seen from the small town, " simple" way of life. that,and her disgust with community organizers. many[ but definitely NOT all!] whom, at least HERE IN CONNECTICUT, a supposedly " liberal" , mostly metropolitan, stuck-up rich people's corporate-ruled state; are the most UN-inviting, bullshit fucking people I have ever known!

this being something I feel more strongly about after attending last night's LGBT [ political] Issues Forum at the new haven[CT] gay and lesbian center; which was sponsored/co-sponsored by ' Love Makes a Family' and the 'CT TransAdvocacy Coalition'. [they hosted both the CT republicans chairman, christopher healy[ a strong mc cain/palin supporter!] and nancy di nardo- democrats chairwoman[ obama 100% and pro- equality/choice]

but here is where sarah palin, and I differ. this besides myself being a transwoman having NO civil rights in 36 states! and she, biologically-born so with all those right wing, seen as " god blessed upon";physical rights of womanhood bestowed upon her when she was born!

I am not one to play into the system, a system generally run by a male establishment consisting of so called "moderates" and right wing extremist business-men. being a right winger, she not only is "one of the boys" whom wears the lipstick; but she is definitely a part of that very same establishment! she got here by " playing by the rules"[ a common saying we often hear from many republicans like bush the 1st, and bush the 2nd]

even long before my MTF transition, I was never a part of that same, white male establishment. like way too many women and blacks often seem to feel; even though I was supposedly born "white with all the privileges"; having ADHD, I was always better able to relate to both feminist women and blacks like the rev. wright!

so why should I , or any other woman,and yes I consider myself to be a woman, or WOMYN! ; feel any bit of sorrow for sarah palin???? you'd never see hillary rodham[ clinton] taking any of the fucking bullshit she takes from john mc cain! hillary would stand up and let " Grandpa Mc Viagra" have it in spades, even if that meant her being seen as " less of a lady" [ similar to how jerimarie of CT TransAdvocacy, and the rest of the "connecticut establishment" LGBT advocates seem to see me; as " the bitch who does not belong!"]

mrs. palin is a conneiving, rotten woman whom will do anything that she has to in order to get her way, just like that sneaky, lying asshole of a " war hero boy" whom she is running with for VP! she does NOT stand for women's rights! well except for the " right to get back in that kitchen and make him[ mc cain] a sandwich!" I hope joe biden brings this out in detail tonight!

about Hillary Clinton's "It's because I'm a woman that you're picking on me!" meme - and in response, pointed out Indira Ghandi, Golda Meir and Margaret Thatcher, all of whom had much harder rows to hoe than Ms. Don't-Call-Her-Rodham Clinton had...or Mrs. Palin has now.

This poor excuse for a candidate needs to tap her ruby slippers together and say, "There's no place like home." I, too, am saddened at the affirmative action re-programming the republicans have foisted on this ignorant and overly ambitious female. But am I sorry for her? Do I think she should be relegated to the "special ed" side of the political aisle? Not so fast....

Our born-again Barbie is the manifestation of hubris, chutzpah and misplaced arrogance. I feel not a whit of pity for Sarah, who might actually be enjoying her extreme makeover at the hands of her captors. With so many jumping on the pity bandwagon, this so-called debate tonight will just be another travesty. Her conniving handlers will drill her to death and hand her a few nasty catch phrases to hurl at Biden, Obama and the democrats. She will never address any real issues; she'll probably avoid even talking directly to Biden at all. Instead, Biden will be too polite. Don't get me wrong: I love Biden. He's a smart, savvy, experienced politician who's lived through a lot of life's untidy tragedies. But he can be sharp-tongued, imprudent and sarcastic when discussing our nation's sorry state. And no doubt, HIS handlers have warned him to tread cautiously.

But my question is: When the heck will Obama & Biden come out fighting? I almost puked each time Obama uttered various permutations of : "You know, John's right on that point..." All the while McCain was slamming him with rights, lefts and roundhouses. Please make the BAD LADY GO AWAY! It's 5 a.m. and Auntie Em is still sitting on a bar stool in Wassila, crying for Dorothy-Sarah to get her ass back where she belonds.

"More" should read "for" of course.

No, that's not a fun-house mirror you're looking at -- it's YOU!!! On the serious side though. I'm asking more a moratorium on Traister's gaggle of middle-age fat mamas. Starting at midnight tonight ad hominems on Beautiful Sarah may be posted only by young svelte beauties. These young goddesses must also post a certifiable full-body photo. This is to continue for 3 days, at which time we will determine if there has been a considerable drop in posters. Even though some of you may not vote for gorgeous Sarah, I know you all wish her well tonight. You may each have 3 large pizzas tonight as you watch Sarah demolish the plagiarizer.

If any of you feel the least bit of pity for this beauty queen, chase it away by remembering the white faces of those Republican delagates at their convention as this smarmy woman smirked her way a la W ,any of the blonde Fox bimbos, Ann Coltor,the Rove twins, KKKarl and Rush as she mocked her way through the speech written for her,making fun of 50% of America,spewing hate for the underclass while portraying herself as Joe 6-pack. hang this Marie Antoinette with all of the other monsters.
