The crap attacks on Gov. Palin, that is. A lot has been written about this, I know, but after getting TWO crappy articles from my sister with blatantly FALSE attacks on Governor Palin, I feel compelled to say more about this. And no, I'm not referencing the assholic articles she sent, but at least one came from a source I turned her on to a while ago: Alternet. When their articles started attacking Senator Clinton non-stop, I quit my subscription to them. Judging from the articles my sister insists upon sending me, they have gone WAY over to the Rabid Voldemort side, with lots and lots of women-bashing to make their point. I am sure you can find it easily enough, if you really want your blood pressure to rise that much.
I'm sick of it. And sick of the blind acceptance of all attacks on Palin (or Clinton, for that matter), especially of the misogynistic variety. Heck, that seems to be most of them.
The kicker on all of this is my sister attacking ME for not supporting Obama when I was a founding member of my city's first NOW chapter. I am not kidding. Not that SHE ever marched for Equal Rights, like I did, or helped women through Operation Rescue lines, but since I would not give my allegiance to Voldemort, all of a sudden, I am no longer a feminist. Because feminists can only support LIBERAL women, which I did not know until just a few months ago. Gee, was I ever living in a fantasy world before!!
Anywho, I am sick of all of the blatant lies smearing Gov.Palin after the election. So is one of her oldest friends:

Thumbs up Rev.!! another fine post!
You are too kind, Type! Thanks! I appreciate that.
And, I really appreciated your comments on the whole issue of McCain apology or not. I can see both sides on this. On the one hand, I think I would like for someone to stand up and speak out abt the horrific treatment, but probably after I had my say first, naturally! Anyway, I thought your comments today were good.
I appreciate your engagement on these issues. If only more Americans were as knowledgeable...
