I’m amused by the vitrol thrown towards Palin.

So far it’s:
1. She’s a Woman!!!
2. She’s got Children!!!!
3. She’s married to some dude!!!!
4. She’s a puppet of someone mean!!!!
5. She’s stupid!!!
6. She can’t talk!!!!
7. She’s a beauty contestant!!!!
8. She didn’t like when her nephew was tasered!!! Or when some family member had their life threatened!!!!

It’s absolutely disgraceful, this treatment. For all the talk of racism, it’s pretty clear that sexism is alive and well in politics. Although it’s pretty telling that American media doesn’t seem to notice that Israel’s Livni is a chick….
