I wish she had also pointed out the generals’ place- namely, under CIVILIAN command.
Now this is the way for the GOP to win back all those women and minority voters.
Don’t they care anymore how many people they turn off with their stiff white man 1950’s lingo?
I guess at this point they have nothing left to lose since it’s down to the birthers and Beckers.
Good response to the Christian Sharia advocates
Fitting a website where the patrons are so comppletely obsessed and strangely enthusiastic about trashing Sarah Palin at every opportunity wants to lecture anyone about misogyny.
She should have gone Joe “Goodfellas” Pesci on them:
“I am the muddaf–kin’ Speaker of the muddaf–kin’ House a’ Reps! Don’t like it? You can kiss my muddaf–kin’ ass!”
And that applies doubly to you, Dennis. Can I get a second on that?
Dennis, please explain to us in detail what is misogynistic about not liking Palin?
When Speaker Pelosi mentioned decades, it reminded of a bumper sticker I used to see many years ago – A woman’s place is in the House … and the Senate!
about trashing Sarah Palin at every opportunity wants to lecture anyone about misogyny.”
Except Sarah Palin is not being told “she needs to be put in her place.” Not liking a particular woman doesn’t make you a mysogynist. Not like Pelosi doesn’t make you a mysogynist, but suggesting a woman should be “put in her place” most definetely fits the bill.
Reminds me of an almost-classmate from college days, now an activist on science issues in politics, but also a mountain climber, as in first American and first female ascent of Annapurna. She has been known to wear a T-shirt emblazoned with “A woman’s place is on top.”
But Pelosi’s gentility does grate a trifle. I’d almost like to hear Randy Brown’s version in reality.
Dennis: Fitting a website where the patrons are so comppletely obsessed and strangely enthusiastic about trashing Sarah Palin at every opportunity wants to lecture anyone about misogyny.
Holding her to the same standards any male politician should be held to is misogyny?
How is what you just did any different than all those folks who cry “racism!” at the drop of a hat when Obama is legitimately criticised? (Which you’ve complained about.)
Randy, I second that….
‘Fitting a website where the patrons are so comppletely obsessed and strangely enthusiastic about trashing Sarah Palin at every opportunity wants to lecture anyone about misogyny.’
When Nancy Pelosi quits her post as Speaker, claiming she was hounded and misunderstood by the Liberal media elite and then has someone ghost write her book that basically claims she’s the second coming of Jesus, then you can make the comparison.
Otherwise, nice try.
I don’t recall anyone telling Palin to stay in her place, which was presumably dragging McCain to an all time low.
Protocol prevents me from reminding you of what an idiotic statement that is jrfunkenstein, much like your claim that Michael Jackson was the first black singer not to have all his songs covered by white singers on the radio.
But when liberals castigated Sarah Palin for not being a good mother to her five children and speculated as to how Palin could possibly balance her responsibilities as a mother of five with the vice presidency, or whether her daughter “strayed” because her she was too preoccupied with work, it was without a shadow of doubt telling Palin to stay in her place, and you couldn’t possibly argue otherwise. Your flip retort here is nonsense; something we’ve become accustomed to with you.
And what is your issue with having someone help her on her book? Do you have the same issues with JFK and ‘Profiles in Courage’? Do you have the same issues with Hillary Clinton and ‘It Takes a Village’? Would you have problems with Barack Obama if he had assistance with his books?
And what the hell are you talking about with saying her ghost writer ‘basically claims she is the second coming of Jesus’? Could you explain that with any detail other than your typical liberal blog commenter gibberish?
You and Zython both throw out garbage from the farthest left of the far left fringe blogs and pretend they’re the truth, then you never back it up with anything concrete.

Need we remind you, Dennis, that you’re the one who suggested that Palin was a liar.

Citations? Links? Details? Who were these shameful liberals?
Never said she was a liar, faffy.
Never said she was a liar, faffy.
You certainly suggested it.
When Alan Grayson said that the GOP plan for health care amounted to “Don’t Get Sick or Die Quickly” you said that he was doing exactly what Palin had done, and you clearly implied that Grayson was lying.
You went on to write:
So what Palin said about “Death Panels” was less of a lie than what Grayson said? How could a statement be less of a lie than another, and still not be a lie?
You know, come to think of it, you never did answer any of these questions in that thread. You just kind of cut and ran.
So Dennis, was Palin lying about “death panels” or not? Because you can’t tell us that Grayson is a liar but Palin isn’t, even though you also think they were both doing the same thing.
So, Dennis, since your very concerned about smears against Palin, maybe you should better explain your position.
Oh and speaking of smears, that’s also the thread in which you embraced guilt by association as a valid line of attack. Bravo.

‘Protocol prevents me from reminding you of what an idiotic statement that is jrfunkenstein,’
Like that’s ever stopped you before.
‘much like your claim that Michael Jackson was the first black singer not to have all his songs covered by white singers on the radio.’
I never claimed that.
‘Your flip retort here is nonsense; something we’ve become accustomed to with you.’
The irony of that statement is blinding.
‘Would you have problems with Barack Obama if he had assistance with his books?’
As you can’t prove he had assistance, what is your point? That he’s as incapable of writing a coherent sentence as Palin? Nice try.
‘And what the hell are you talking about with saying her ghost writer ‘basically claims she is the second coming of Jesus’? ‘
That’s not what I claimed; I claimed Palin HERSELF insinuates she’s the second coming of Jesus, much like her followers; it’s called sarcasm.
‘You and Zython both throw out garbage from the farthest left of the far left fringe blogs and pretend they’re the truth, then you never back it up with anything concrete.’
Coming from you, that’s rich.
What was your point? Did you have a problem with Kennedy and Clinton hiring ghost writers? And would you have a problem with Obama having had help on his book, as he likely did?
Just more nonsense from you. And am I to assume that since you replied in exactly the same nonsensical manner as Zython that that was sarcasm, too?
What was your point?
Precisely, Dennis. What exactly was your point when you said that Palin was not as big a liar as Grayson?
