    Naughty, naughty...

    Shame on you, Gary Kamiya and shame on you Salon for subjecting all of us to this fluff piece that singlehandedly sets feminism back. I am an avid Sarah Palin hater, a feminist, and do have a domme streakm myself, and I was appalled at this article. There is absolutely no reason with the laundry list of terrible stances that Palin presents, that this article focused on the libido of the general voters and the general appearance and demeanor of Palin. Besides, she is far more suited to the standard English governess than the leather maiden displayed in your picture.
