Gotta love this condescending, smarmy hit piece by left wing moonbat Maureen Dowd, attacking Governor Sarah Palin for being too...too...regular womanish?
The guilty pleasure I miss most when I’m out slogging on the campaign trail is the chance to sprawl on the chaise and watch a vacuously spunky and generically sassy chick flick.
So imagine my delight, my absolute astonishment, when the hokey chick flick came out on the trail, a Cinderella story so preposterous it’s hard to believe it’s not premiering on Lifetime. Instead of going home and watching “Miss Congeniality” with Sandra Bullock, I get to stay here and watch “Miss Congeniality” with Sarah Palin.
Sheer heaven.
It’s easy to see where this movie is going. It begins, of course, with a cute, cool unknown from Alaska who has never even been on “Meet the Press” triumphing over a cute, cool unknowable from Hawaii who has been on “Meet the Press” a lot.
Americans, suspicious that the Obamas have benefited from affirmative action without being properly grateful, and skeptical that Michelle really likes “The Brady Bunch” and “The Dick Van Dyke Show,” reject the 47-year-old black contender as too uppity and untested.
Instead, they embrace 72-year-old John McCain and 44-year-old Sarah Palin, whose average age is 58, a mere two years older than the average age of the Obama-Biden ticket. Enthusiastic Republicans don’t see the choice of Palin as affirmative action, despite her thin résumé and gaping absence of foreign policy knowledge, because they expect Republicans to put an underqualified “babe,” as Rush Limbaugh calls her, on the ticket. They have a tradition of nominating fun, bantamweight cheerleaders from the West, like the previous Miss Congeniality types Dan Quayle and W., and then letting them learn on the job. So they crash into the globe a few times while they’re learning to drive, what’s the big deal?
Obama may have been president of The Harvard Law Review, but Palin graduated from the University of Idaho with a minor in poli-sci and worked briefly as a TV sports reporter. And she was tougher on the basketball court than the ethereal Obama, earning the nickname “Sarah Barracuda.”
Methinks that Maureen Dowd is just a touch bitter. Could it be that she sees a woman who is way more attractive and successful than she will ever be, and is jealous? Note the arrogant jab because Governor Palin "just" went to the University of Idaho. Remember that liberals love the working folks? Yeah right. Liberals despise working class people except in concept and as long as they never have to deal with one. A regular person as Vice-President? The horror! I mean, she went to the University of Utah for crying out loud! Dear me, I think Ms. Dowd is being, dare I say, a little catty?
It has never been more apparent that the leftist media establishment women care nothing about real women and their issues. All they really care about are politically charged issues. What the feminist agenda is all about is not the issues that women care about, they are socialist political items that disproportionately impact the female gender. There aren't legions of feminists lined up to celebrate Sarah Palin, because she isn't the right sort of woman, just like the liberal long knives came out for Clarence Thomas because he wasn't the right sort of black man, and had strayed from the liberal plantation. Liberals love minorities as long as they smile, keep their mouths shut and pull the right lever on election day. But woe to the woman or the minority who dares hold a different position, because you will see the Maureen Dowds and Anita Hills coming out of the woodwork.

I've always found it amusing that feminists claim to be all about women's rights but ostracize and criticize women who choose to do things that don't seem progressive or feminist: like not only having thir babies but actually staying home and raising them!
