I’m not sure if your comments got rejected but when I post it shows up immediately.

Compared to the language in some of the other posts here, my comments were quite tame. But I guess being critical of Palin isn’t allowed on your site, is it? So much for being non-partisan.

If you’re not conservative, anti-Obama, and pro-Palin, there really is no place for you on this site. Which is fine, except when you profess to be “non-partisan.”

A conservative website posing as a “non-partisan organization dedicated to improving the lives of women and girls….” is more than just disingenuous, it’s an outright lie.

And no, I don’t expect you to post this comment either, but I figured I’d give it a shot. What can I say? I’m persistent like that – after all, I AM a feminist. Just not one that’s allowed to crticize Sarah Palin here.

Yes, women really are damned stupid. Sarah Palin is smart and strong and successful. MOST men and women would have left the arena never to be heard from again after the attacks, but instead she comes back full force. You won’t hear from Bill Richardson or John Edwards again….I can promise you that.

First point I want to address is why some of you feel that Sarah is not a feminist or pro-women. Name ONE topic other than government intrusion into the topic of abortion (which, for the record, Sarah Palin fully supports women having the right to deal with this medical issue privately and that the government should have NO input positive or negative; in other words, it is a private medical issue between a woman and her doctor which is exactly the same opinion I have and I am a radical feminist) that makes her un-feminist. She is a strong, smart and successful woman who has a loving family and a good job. She speaks her mind and holds her own. She is spiritual. She can shoot a gun. She doesn’t take crap from anyone. She is grounded ethically. What about these qualities is so upsetting or so anti-feminist?

As far as Nancy Pelosi goes, however, she is a liar, a cheater, a hypocrite, and through her lies and bad acts stole a presidency and is killing this country. I don’t care if she is god herself I wouldn’t and couldn’t support her. This is not an issue of women supporting women this is an issue of survival. Feminism is all about changing the power paradigm but we won’t change a thing–in my opinion–supporting evil people even if they have wombs. Criticizing Mrs. Pelosi is the proper thing to do because she is doing bad things. Period. This one was easy.

You didn’t see Obama fondled, dressed in short shorts, made into a movie by Larry Flint and you won’t because that is how sexism works. Even though we have no information about his true educational background other than he went to Occidental College with a C average and somehow got into an ivy league law school (NOT) and he has never been hired or held a job (and a visiting professor part time is not a job give me a fuggin break) he is smart and she is dumb. Even though she held a job, and won an election, and had a 80% positive rating, but somehow he is smarter and better. And she is dumb. This is sexism people. Same way Hillary was mean and Obama was cool. I saw a lying sack of shit and the media told me he was the second coming of christ. This is sexim people.

And while I think Janis is one of the most amazing writers I have read in a long time and I agree with her on almost everything, we part ways on this support every woman thing. I only support people who are good and support women and issues i believe in. Sarah Palin believes that this country should have a balanced budget, that the middle class is getting screwed, the women are getting screwed, and that we should protect our borders and have a strong presence militarily. Versus the idiot bowing and groveling and apologizing to countries whose track records would make Hitler blush. And she’s the idiot. NOT. YOU ARE THE IDIOT if you cannot see what is happening and we do not have time to spoon feed you anymore.

Sarah is good, Obama is bad, and Hillary is great. Nancy and Michelle suck rotten eggs. Get it, good….

This is why you’d goddamned well better defend women against sexism just because of their gender, you damned shortsighted dumbasses! Because it’ll be you tomorrow! Why is this so hard to understand! Is it so satisfying to you to watch a woman you hate be raped that you’ll sentence yourself or your own children to suffer the same way?! What the hell is WRONG with you people?

I need to go get coffee and crochet a little. This topic makes me sick to my stomach. Women really are stupid.

Jesus Christ. I’m going to go get coffee and crochet a little. This whole topic makes me sick to my stomach. Women really are damned stupid.

Christ, it’s a good thing Jonas Salk was a man or else we’d still have polio. If he’d been a woman, she’d only have wanted to inoculate her friends, and let her enemies die … And allow the virus to thrive and survive among them. And then wail and whine and write sob books and bad poetry when her kid got laid up in an iron lung. I’m sure there were people in the government and in his neighborhood who resented what he was doing for some stupid reason. Thank fucking GOD he wasn’t stupid and shortsighted enough to say, “They tried to get in the way of my research, so they DESERVE it!” And we’d still have iron lungs in this country because the virus doesn’t fucking care!
