Is comparing Sarah Palen to Hillary Clinton an insult to women?
It is an insult. Hillary would be nothing if she wasn’t married to Bill Clinton. That’s why she didn’t divorce him when he was caught in adultery. Hillary insulted all feminists by defending her husband and stood against the female victims of her husband. Sarah Palin is her own success story. She has no ties to special interests groups. She became a governor on her own merits.
Each should be evaluated on their own merit. Hillary has political experience but she can’t be on the ticket so we have to move on. Palen is called, fire and nice, by her peers because of her ability to work with both sides and isn’t just a Republican, but an American. To say that she couldn’t run the white house is an insult to all us women who have children and run a household. At least we know how to balance a budget, make peace, multi-task, clean up messes left by others. Sounds like they may have found just the right person to tackle their Washington mess.
Comparing the diversity of women only serves to show that we are a strongly diverse bunch – that’s not an insult. Saying that, I still have my opinion on the matter 🙂 I applaud Palin for not resorting to man-suits and man-manners but being proud of her status as a female. Hillary is always using every means possible to man-ify herself so she can get the male vote. I am rather proud that in my (and Palin’s) gender/age role full of extreme liberalism, there are some women out there who stand for the original meaning of woman’s rights – the original feminists WERE feminists for life and didn’t degrade themselves with murdering or letting people kill their babies. Of course, the media loves to dig up dirt on Republicans – I wish there was a way we could force a balanced media – the only place I don’t see favoritism towards democrats is the PBS station! I haven’t heard yet about a tin can in the plastic bin, but I’m sure Palin’s nephew’s uncle was the one who did it!
Yes, it is because Hillary Clinton is nothing like Palin. Hillary is pro choice and supports women’s issues. Palin is anti-abortion and does not support women’s issues. Heck, she doesn’t want to have sex education in schools or want people to have access to birth control. If McCain thinks women will support him because he selected Palin, then he must be really stupid or flat out insane.
