ENY,

lol,
I was only trying to let you off easy by not getting into the Afghanistan war, but by all means, fire away…

I also see I must have hit a nerve with the Palin issue with you.
As I stated before, I really don’t think Palin is the standard bearer of Republicans or Conservatives, I am simply pointing out the hypocrisy of the National Organization for Women not speaking up in her favor as a woman, while folks were attacking her about her marriage, her looks, her speech and most deplorably about her Down’s child.
I would have no problem having the Left talk about substance, but most of the time all I heard on the nightly news was about her hair.
You would think that NOW would come out with a public statement about how an American woman running on the Republican ticket doesn’t merit more than fashion police, no?

who even heard of a ‘Woman of the Year’ award…from whom?

And let’s please not get into a war debate on this.

Why not? You start a rock fight and then want to say “OK, I quit.”?

That would never fly in ENY, Legion. They’d be chasing your ass all the way home.

“the berating and mockery she took froms
every late night talk show host, every comedy
show and every female in the democratic party….”

…Was justifiable, considering the surprising lack of knowledge and insight she showed in early interviews. To date she will not sit down with a reputable publication/journalist for an interview. Those jokes didn’t develop out of thin air, Legion.

“My main point however is that they should
speak to the issues not try to portray her
as an ignorant boob, especially since…”

….she’s quite capable of handling that herself.

Most indefensible liberal bias incident involving women’s rights was when Condi Rice didn’t get woman of the year when she became Sec’y of State.
