Sexism!
Sexist!
“Enough is enough The Mc Cain campaign’s attack tonight is a
pathetic attempt to play the gender card about the use of a common analogy
– the same analogy that Senator McCain himself used about Senator Hillary
Rodham Clinton’s health care plan just last year. This phony lecture
on gender sensitivity is the height of cynicism and lays bare the increasingly
dishonorable campaign John McCain has chosen to run,” said Obama campaign
senior advisor Anita Dunn.
I mean, really. Who floated this one up into the political wind in the first
place?
“You know what they say the difference is between a hockey mom and
a pit bull? Lipstick.” Sarah Palin

A well known St. Louis radio host, Dave Glover, used to say of me that I was
a “pitbull with lipstick.” It’s a common phrase used often. But now,
since McCain – Palin have inaugurated their faux feminist campaign, every little
gesture or comment towards Governor Palin is made into an sexist assault. The Republicans
have hit a new low in politically correct hysteria, hoping to drag the public around by their sensibilities to win the election.
The McCain-Palin team went to school on what actually happened to Hillary,
and are now trying to manufacture the same thing out of nothing, with a ready made
machine to hit back, while milking it for all the pr they can get. The people hyperventilating about it, especially Sean
Hannity, have said the most insulting things about Clinton that can be uttered. Now
the McCain-Palin camps are feigning outrage over fantasy flaps. Rush will likely retire
“feminazi” and “infobabe” for the duration of the presidential
election season.
I didn’t hear anyone bitching about the phrase or accusing McCain of
calling Hillary a pig when he used it to target Clinton’s health-care plan.
Circa
2007:
McCain criticized Democratic contenders for offering what he called costly
universal health care proposals that require too much government regulation.
While he said he had not studied Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton’s health-care
plan, he said it was “eerily reminiscent” of the failed plan she
offered as first lady in the early 1990s.“I think they put some lipstick on a pig, but it’s still a pig,”
he said of her proposal.
Where was everyone when McCain laughed as a supporter asked “how do we beat the bitch?”
Where was everyone when McCain told the Janet Reno – Chelsea joke?
John McCain didn’t give two hoots about sexism until he thought he could ride Hillary’s supporters into the White House. Some are actually falling for this nonsense, with women the most desperately gullible among the insulted.
What the McCain-Palin teams are doing is so transparent. I saw it coming a mile
away.
