Quotes of the day
posted at 10:36 pm on September 8, 2008 by Allahpundit
“In democratic systems, politics often throws up women like Sarah Palin. They look and sound very different from the men around them — Palin seems to have taken a conscious decision to wear skirts, unlike Hillary Clinton and her jokey ‘sisterhood of the travelling pantsuit’ — but their agenda is even more anti-feminist than their male peers…
That is what makes right-wing women so dangerous to other women. They have perfected the trick of stamping a feminine image on male power and selling it as something new, when what they are in reality the most fervent upholders of the status quo or even determined — as Palin is over reproductive rights — to turn the clock back.”
*
“But central to Palin’s red-state appeal is her earthy embrace of motherhood. She differs from mainstream feminists in that her sexuality and fecundity are not in tension with her achievement and power. If anything, they rise out of them. Instead of holding her back, her five children embody her energy, competence, authority, and optimism…
Still, whatever the appeal of red-state feminism, it should bring no comfort to anyone in favor of a more mature political culture. Red staters share with their blue-state counterparts a tendency to sentimentalize and trivialize politics. They heighten the salience of Lifetime Television–style personal stories and gossip. They reduce candidates to personalities, lifestyles, and gonads. Some blue staters got behind Clinton because she was a woman; red staters want to vote for Palin because she’s a mom. Both positions are misguided. Multitasking your kids’ homework and dinner is nothing like weighing contradictory advice from your advisors for a decision that will change world history, and estrogen levels do not correlate with experience, judgment, and wisdom. In the long run, the blurring of celebrity and politics hurts everyone, women and men.”

Uhhhhh
Can somone please translate this steaming pile for me?
Markvike on September 8, 2008 at 10:40 PM
Sarah appeals to me because she is pro-life, knows energy, and shoots guns.
The rest of the babble contained in this “quote” is noise made by a fem-bot who wouldn’t last a month on the tundra.
sven10077 on September 8, 2008 at 10:40 PM
If she had aborted her five kids, Palin would be a hero to the left.
Lib women look at her baby, Trig, and feel disgust, Sarah looks at her baby and sees a life that will be challenging but full.
I know already of a website that is vicious in smearing Down’s Syndrome kids, specifically Trig, and if I didn’t think I would get my butt kicked by Allah I would post it. The left knows no shame.
Bishop on September 8, 2008 at 10:42 PM
Translation: 1) Conservative women aren’t really women. 2) The little people (whether red state or blue) are stupid.
D0WNT0WN on September 8, 2008 at 10:42 PM
Wouldn’t last 10 minutes if she got a flat tire on the freeway and her cell phone battery was dead….
BigWyo on September 8, 2008 at 10:44 PM
I hope the author doesn’t include herself in this group. She hasn’t learned how to communicate yet.
tommuck on September 8, 2008 at 10:44 PM
Maybe when Sarah is older and doesn’t need it, she can plant her uterus somewhere in Chicago…
SouthernGent on September 8, 2008 at 10:45 PM
Palin is appealing because she is the master of herself.
People were excited in Dayton because she was a surprise, a woman, a mother, young, and blindsided the know it alls in the media.
People fell in love with her in St. Paul because under the highest scrutiny, she dominated the situation that was supposed to be her downfall. That’s what highly successful athletes are trained to do.
We love her because the situation didn’t control her, she controlled the situation. Add in the charisma and forget about it.
The ‘Cuda is something we can believe in.
Metro on September 8, 2008 at 10:46 PM
I’ll let those who are 2/3 hours behind the East Coast take over on this one. I’ve already done my share of work on it today.
Connie on September 8, 2008 at 10:46 PM
Steaming pile is right.
They just can’t admit that a conservative woman could be competent, can they?!
Fie on them.
Bob's Kid on September 8, 2008 at 10:46 PM
What ridiculous analysis. I’m voting for the ticket because both McCain and Palin brings a certain quality to the Executive Branch that is absolutely necessary to create a leadership stream, that is, energy. They are both energetic, optimistic, hard driving and obviously will take the fight to the enemy, be they Jihadists or Democrats (yes, I have some difficulty telling which is which).
I like the fact that Palin is an unabashed enthusiastic mom, but there are bad mothers too so that argument is the purview of morons. In short, I love the whole package, what Republicans are finally presenting now. I can work for that ticket.
JonPrichard on September 8, 2008 at 10:46 PM
I just talked to my mama tonight, who lives back home in OKC and has been pretty disaffected by the McCain campaign, but in her own words today “Sarah has given the conservative movement a well-needed shot in the arm.” You gotta know this is coming from a nurse.
I have a great mama, as do Sarah’s kids.
MsUnderestimated on September 8, 2008 at 10:46 PM
I want to vote for Palin because she caused several members of her own party to be jailed over sorruption. Everything else is just icing on the cake.
Buford on September 8, 2008 at 10:46 PM
Translation Sarah is more of a man than HILLARY!
Translation: being pro-life means you have turned in your membership badge in the “Ovarian Interdiction Sisterhood”
Translation: Freak semi-cute woman enjoys and thrives because of her kids…makes menfolk happy to see what we fembots know must be a lie.
translation: you damn men…listen no matter how smart and effective she may fool you into believing she is we need someone who has shown an ability to manage complex systems into the ground Like Barry O’bama…..
Blue Staters may back Hillary because she is a woman but you red rubes back Sarah because you saw her on TV when you were watching lifetime(translation is odd)?
Anyway CELEBRITY IN POLITICS FAVORING GOP BAAAAAAAAADDDDD YOU BREEDERS!
sven10077 on September 8, 2008 at 10:47 PM
Sarah is a beautiful, positive, Christian, pro-life, self-made woman. She loves her country and she loves her family. She represents everything that the liberal left is against.
She is a heroine to the regular folks.
She inspires people.
A natural born leader.
She wears skirts and clothes bought off the rack.
She is confident, but not arrogant.
She is intelligent, but not an intellectual.
To liberals, a nightmare and to republicans a dream.
carbon_footprint on September 8, 2008 at 10:47 PM
Hell, sounds like items 1,2 and 3 at a NOW meeting.

MarcusBrody on September 8, 2008 at 10:48 PM

sven10077 on September 8, 2008 at 10:48 PM
Crap! I thought I was enlightened… I’m really glad we have the Joan Smith’s of the world to set us dimwits straight.
Chicost84 on September 8, 2008 at 10:48 PM
Liberal drivel. The woman has the nerve to say “more mature political culture”.
Lady, that’s all we’ve been asking for, but you and your crazy friends won’t allow it.
Hog Wild on September 8, 2008 at 10:49 PM
FWIW, Greta Van Susteren’s show this evening had a number of old interviews with Palin from a couple of months back. In one, she was asked about competing in a beauty pageant. She kinda joked around when answering, which was fine – but she was also sticking out her tongue and biting it (!). It made her look very silly, and hopefully she’s recognized this bad habit and doesn’t do it during the Gibson interview! Of course this shouldn’t be a big deal, but no doubt she’d be mocked for it should she do it in a higher-profile interview.
fiatboomer on September 8, 2008 at 10:49 PM
Nah, it’s simpler than that, really. If Palin were a liberal, she’d be a hero to the left and they’d be lauding her “strength of character” for keeping and raising Trig while running for VP.
holygoat on September 8, 2008 at 10:49 PM
Very well put metro, very well put.
JonPrichard on September 8, 2008 at 10:50 PM
That was easily one of the weakest arguments I’ve ever read. The only people who will agree with it are people who emote in the same way the author does.
j_ehman on September 8, 2008 at 10:50 PM
There has always been a long-standing feud between camps in feminism.
Some women, like Cady Stanton, Emmeline Wells, (and presumably our current VP candidate) always argued that the roles of mother and wife were empowering, noble, and inherent and ought to be regarded on a level equal with the roles of men.
Susan B. Anthony (and Steinem, Friedan, et al) argued that those roles WERE the problem, instituted by the patriarchy and parity with men would only be achieved if they were destroyed.
When boiled down, the second version is basically Marxism in drag. The failure of Marxism (and the rise of evolutionary psychology which discovered – shocker – that men and women really are different) really has shown the second branch to be the sham that it is, a pretense to revolutionary politics that have always ended in failure at best and horrors like the gulag at worst.
Palin is a threat to the very foundation of that form of Feminism. She must be stopped at all costs, because if for a moment, she is allowed to succeed, the myth of women being oppressed by the traditional roles of motherhood will be shattered and there goes the women studies depts.
tlclark on September 8, 2008 at 10:52 PM
When you have to use words like “fecundity” in your argument, you’re in trouble.
BacaDog on September 8, 2008 at 10:52 PM
I wouldn’t vote for her just because she’s a mom. She’s a pro-life, pro-family, pro-gun, anti-corruption, anti-taxes governor. What’s not to like?
Vanquisher on September 8, 2008 at 10:52 PM
They reduce candidates to personalities, lifestyles, and gonads. Some blue staters got behind Clinton because she was a woman; red staters want to vote for Palin because she’s a mom.

So no matter who women pick they are screwed unless it a man?
What a piece of crap.Obama write this?
Gracelynn on September 8, 2008 at 10:53 PM
Summary:
Sarah’s not a LGBT professor of womyn’s studies, so wtf is all the fuss about?
jeff_from_mpls on September 8, 2008 at 10:53 PM
In the long run, the blurring of celebrity and politics hurts everyone, women and men.
Wow, that was a nice hit on Obama!
Everything they say about the ‘Cuda can be thrown right back at 0′bama, yet they just keep on falling right into that trap.

In the long run, the blurring of celebrity and politics hurts everyone, women and men.
The great thing about liberals is, every time they try to take a shot at Palin, they wind up shooting their own candidate.
Dagnar on September 8, 2008 at 10:55 PM
Sarah Palin is rapidly becoming a national Rorschach test on feminism and the very meaning of American womanhood.
JonPrichard on September 8, 2008 at 10:55 PM
It’s feministspeak for: She’s attractive and getting laid regularly and I’m out of batteries.
ManlyRash on September 8, 2008 at 10:55 PM
Exactly, but those are the libs. No attempt to be persuasive… just explain how they are right and you are stupid.
Chicost84 on September 8, 2008 at 10:55 PM
Good grief. And we wonder why they produce candidates like Obama? Well no, actually we don’t wonder that, we know why.

Red state, red state, red state…..
Who the hell assigned this color to conservatism? Understandable why the left doesn’t want the color red assigned to them but it is high time that the right takes on a color other than that associated with communism. My personal choice is purple because it is generally assigned to the middle ground. Let the Dems wallow in shades of blue without the ability to call some of their crap “purple.” Failing that I say go for some color like Cyan where the left is having to differentiate between competing shades of blue.
highhopes on September 8, 2008 at 10:57 PM
“it should bring no comfort to anyone in favor of a more mature political culture.”
I am afraid that Ms. Hymowitz is going to have to give me examples of what she considers a more mature political culture, and then explain to me when and how she set the perimeters. Her lofty tone barely separates her from the rest of her left wing crew from Kos or DU.
Cindy Munford on September 8, 2008 at 10:57 PM
I’d guess she’d last at least as long has her ammo.
johnsteele on September 8, 2008 at 10:58 PM
The far left will never understand Sarah Palin.
She is NOT a victim!
The far left is nothing without victims. The left is afraid of strong women.

Red is emblematic of the blood spilled by American patriots for freedom. That’s why we have red stripes on the flag. I can live with that. Nay, I can celebrate that with gusto.
JonPrichard on September 8, 2008 at 11:01 PM
Since she’s British, apparently Joan doesn’t understand the way the U.S. system works. So here are a few pointers, sweetie.
First, all VP choices these days are handpicked by the presidential candidate. Sarah Palin was handpicked by John McCain in the same way that Joe Biden was handpicked by Obama, John Edwards was handpicked by John Kerry, Al Gore was handpicked by Bill Clinton, Geraldine Ferraro was handpicked by Walter Mondale, etc. Second, if Sarah Palin becomes the Vice President, it will be because the American electorate voted her into that office. Third, American voters have already had the opportunity to vote for Hillary Clinton — those elections were held last Spring and they were called primaries — and Hillary Clinton lost to Barack Obama. Hillary was eliminated as a candidate for President in the general election because her campaign adopted a foolish strategy in the primaries — and not because of any patriarchical conspiracy against her. OK?
AZCoyote on September 8, 2008 at 11:02 PM
I ignore the verbiage, laughing at the pic.

Correct. Same goes for those race traitor ‘uncle Toms’ who leave the plantation. That’s why they hate Condi TWICE as much.

That’s it. I’m not votig for Palin.
davidk on September 8, 2008 at 11:02 PM
Makes me want to vote for her all the more.
Hey sweetie, get me ‘nother beer.
Mojave Mark on September 8, 2008 at 11:02 PM
Plenty of strong women on the left. I think Michelle Obama is one. Unfortunately the men on the left are basically neutered.

If she had aborted her five children and three more, she’d be Whoopie Goldberg!

And from another article,

The American electorate is allowed to vote for Sarah Palin, if it so wishes, but not Hillary …
As the Coyote said, this Brit doesn’t get our system. She’s never heard of the ‘write-in’ vote. Thank GOD the EUROs can’t vote in our election!
Tony737 on September 8, 2008 at 11:06 PM
fiatboomer on September 8, 2008 at 10:49 PM
Please don’t worry about her, she will be great. You need to be prepared for her being mocked no matter what. I thought her facial expressions were fine and in context to what she was trying to convey. This is not her first time at the rodeo.
Cindy Munford on September 8, 2008 at 11:07 PM
That was from “samtheman” who posted a comment to the piece cited by Allahpundit. Personally, whatever moose ate Palin’s homework has just gotten smarter to the tune of trillions of dollars — far smarter than “samtheman” ever will be. Palin seems to have judged the economic situation to a T. We taxpayers will all be paying the bailout for all those bad mortgages for years to come, just to hold up real estate prices so only the rich can buy homes. Personally, I would have let FDR’s legacies fail and permitted the economy adjust itself — and allowed housing prices fall back to where their true value lies.

As the first sentence in Laura Ingraham’s book Shut Up and Sing starts: “They think you are stupid.”
carbon_footprint on September 8, 2008 at 11:08 PM
If nothing else, Palin as them so jacked up even the feminists can’t agree on what feminism is anymore.
Mini14 on September 8, 2008 at 11:09 PM
“She differs from ‘mainstream feminists’ in that her sexuality and fecundity are not in tension with her achievement and power”
WHY SHOULD THEY BE?!?!? YOU STUPID HARRIDANS ARE THE ONES WHO CREATE THAT TENSION — and i’ll let you in on a little secret — you do it by throwing the men in your life out on their ear!!
Saracuda still loves her man! and lives life WITH him — that’s why she’s [shudder] HAPPY doing what she’s doing!

Buckaroo on September 8, 2008 at 11:10 PM
There is a definite line between “Strong woman” and “Angry, bitter, castrating b!tch.”
Apparently, Michelle crossed that line when she enrolled at Princeton.
ManlyRash on September 8, 2008 at 11:10 PM
That columnist sure is an arrogant, condescending one, ain’t she? I guess she put all us Rubes in our place! Yes, ma’am, I’ll get right back to the servants’ quarters, sorry to have intruded on your deep thoughts and contemplations with my excitement about a true conservative like Sarah Palin being nominated; my apologies.

I live in a blue state but my heart is conservative red state all the way. Oh but I am a woman. Therefore I must be a dumbass loser. I am glad that is cleared up, apparently I have been laboring under the delusion that I was a productive and competent member of society.
HawaiiLwyr on September 8, 2008 at 11:12 PM
Well said.
These are things the women who write this tripe not only cannot understand but concepts that they cannot even fathom.
Then again, a cloistered life in cosmopolitan America tends to warp people’s perceptions of reality so it’s no surprise that they cannot understand these concepts or the exact nature of Palin’s support amongst the public, not that they’d care either way.
They really don’t think they’re the ones that are out of touch with the public, because they believe that their own little cloisters of ivory tower intellectuals, trial lawyers, glorified activists, and the rest of the cocktail set are representitive of the public.
Let them sneer. Let them smirk.
Let’s see who’s laughing on November 6th.

“I am a single, bitter academic with two cats in my apartment who writes theoretical books about feminist issues. If I write an article about Sarah Palin, some people will actually pay attention to me.” – Attila
Free advice for women in this dilemma: Get rid of the cats, get a dog, take a shower, shave your legs, take the dog for a walk in the park everyday. you’ll meet men, you’ll get dates and you’ll get laid. You’ll forget all about the silly issues that keep you up all night petting your kitty.
Tony737 on September 8, 2008 at 11:21 PM
One question. What’s your stance on illegal immigration? I know you want to drill in ANWAR which might temper McCain’s views on that subject. But, what is your sanctuary state’s governor’s views on illegal immigration?
I’m looking to see if you might temper McCain / Kennedy’s views on this as well.
BowHuntingTexas on September 8, 2008 at 11:22 PM
O/T, but Ace reminds us that this is the fourth anniversary of Rathergate. He even started a Rather Retirement Watch back then, concluding that Rather would be out soon. The first comment on the thread?
Pessimism is chronic.
amerpundit on September 8, 2008 at 11:23 PM
You’re evil AP. You truly are evil. You might be right. But you’re evil. Sarah may be different, and you like the rest of us need to be patient enough to wait and see. She is a reformer and I don’t care if she’s a stripper or a Catholic nun. If we don’t reform we’re doomed.

CapedConservative on September 8, 2008 at 11:24 PM
I think she is very capable, though there is a long road of minefields and vipers in front of her. Hopefully she’ll handle the press and kick Biden’s aft all over the place at the debate.
fiatboomer on September 8, 2008 at 11:26 PM
QFT.
Notice- Clinton was getting trounced until she started playing the victim and weeping about how hard it was to run for president.
That’s all these hippies understand. Victimization. Whales are victims, polar bears are victims, poor people are victims, the Democratic party are victims, the American people are victims of that evil George Bush and Darth Cheney… even the planet Earth is a victim.
Left wing philosophy isn’t about shattering glass ceilings, it’s about lowering the bar.
It’s the answer to everything
- equal pay= pay me the same BECAUSE I am female, not because I do the same work
- affirmative action= give me opportunity BECAUSE of my skin color, not because I am the best qualified
- education= (just happened in Dallas) give kids 3+ chances to pass tests rather than give them the education and sense of responsibility to achieve anything.
Damiano on September 8, 2008 at 11:28 PM
Hmmmm.. what does that even mean?
I live in a blue state one that Reagan didn’t even win, and I’m as Conservative as they come.(I must admit however, I wasn’t born or raised here.. however i have lived here for over 10 years)
Chakra Hammer on September 8, 2008 at 11:28 PM
Human society has certain things that are lasting about it.
To wrap our brains around Sarah Palin even knowing all the crazy dirt, many are reaching outside America and even back hundreds of years for good examples. That shows you how rare this woman is in her character. Margaret Thatcher and Joan of Arc have been mentioned. I think she could hold her own in any era in any nation which allowed her a shot at leadership.
This woman is leading men and women equally and completely shifting our entire culture in one week. Basically it’s a supernatural thing that just happened if you want to know the truth. That’s why it’s all so surreal. It may be feel more normal in the future but that’s just because we’ll get used to having her around, be more critical and take her for granted. But I don’t think the core of who she is would change even as President and one of the most powerful woman in the history of the world. It won’t go to her head because she’s a solid “Christianist” just following her career path for the glory of God and not her selfish will.
And if she felt God didn’t want her to run in 2012 nothing would convince her to run. She’d say thanks, but no thanks.
econavenger on September 8, 2008 at 11:30 PM
Sarah Palin is ‘attractive’ (in the truest sense of the word) be cause she seems to be an EVERY-WOMAN. The kind of person you’d like to meet. The kind of woman you’d trust your kids with.
The kind of woman you meet every day in your local grocery store.

“….estrogen levels do not correlate with experience, judgment, and wisdom.”
I hope we’re not saying that testosterone levels do.
Because several thousand years of history would appear to indicate otherwise.

Hello disenfranchised voter.
Been there myself when living in California district where the liberal whore elected to Congress was focused on getting federal dollars for tattoo removal for gang members.

Sarah Palin,A Woman to make Enlightened Voters Shudders.
————————————————————
On paper,the new darling of Christian ticks all the right boxes as only a media-taunting,oil-drilling,gun-toting,ab
ortion-hating,creationist mother of five could.
————————————————————
Equally at home posing for photographs with her children and
dead animals,she sends an irresistible mating call to evange
lical voters who suspect that John McCain is secretly too se
ular for their taste.
————————————————————
The bottom line,is that a Right Wing Republican Women has her act together,and if you don’t think so,tread very,very

Wiki states the colors for reporting political party wins in states were mixed in various elections and sometimes even in the same election by different news outlets. With 2000, the colors became ingrained in people’s minds. Remember the maps showing the US county-by-county with red for Bush and blue for Gore.
Somewhere quite a while back I also read that one color was traditionally used for the incumbent party until 2000. (I don’t remember where I saw it and can’t vouch for it).
Then there’s always the theory that the Dems will do anything they can in order to not be associated with the color red!

It’s OK. I understand your view and don’t expect you to understand what I see.

All that being said, I think the GOP should demand that they should be represented by the primary color green instead of red.
Think about it.
