The Mad Rants of an Unconventional Soccer Mom

Poor Wolf Slayer. She is now the victim of the mean, mean, evil, chauvinist left and the press and they’re not going to take it!:

ST. PAUL -- Female Republicans embraced identity politics with gusto today, touting the virtues of presumptive vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin and suggesting that any attempts to question her qualifications amounted to blatant sexism.

In a "hear me roar"-style press conference, a parade of elected officials and GOP operatives issued a lengthy defense of the Alaska governor's credentials, and former Massachusetts governor Jane Swift said Palin has been the target of "an outrageous smear campaign."

"She has taken on the corrupt special interests in Washington and Alaska. She has stood up for families and made a difference," Swift said. "She is more prepared than Barack Obama to be the president of the United States. ... The Republican Party will not stand by while Sarah Palin is subjected to sexist attacks."

Boo, fu*k'n hoo!  The Republican Party, that after 196 years, finally got around to putting a woman on the ticket? The Republican Party whose platform is that women should not have the right to choose what happens to her own body? The Republican Party that has nominated the man who said this about Chelsea Clinton…the man who called his wife a C*nt…the man who told a joke about a woman being raped by an ape. Righhht, they really care about women and would never degrade them.

And I wonder what the Wolf Slayer will say about this line of defense since she had no problem ripping Clinton when she tried that defense:

During the primary Sarah Palin chided Hillary Clinton for complaining about sexism.

"She does herself a disservice to even mention it, really," Palin said. "When I hear a statement like that coming from a woman candidate with any kind of perceived whine about that excess criticism, or maybe a sharper microscope put on her, I think, 'Man, that doesn't do us any good, women in politics, or women in general, trying to progress this country,'" Palin said. "I don't think it bodes well for her."

Crickets... I guess she's not a maverick after all.  She's just a girl and you better play nice with her or she's going to cry.  I sure hope if she becomes VP (god forbid) that Putin plays nice with her and doesn't make her cry.  We wouldn't want her smearing all that make-up.
