Women against Palin are sexist?

Just as the subject line above states, there are women in the media and sites across the world wide net, being called sexist for standing up and saying " Palin is not for me"!
I personally have received about 20 emails now on various sites about how my views are " sexist".

There are mothers, feminists and working moms standing up around the country saying " say no to Palin" and the GOP and thier followers are crying foul.

I know that most women I talk to will not support her because they see her as the wrong lady for the job. Plus as a " working mom" she makes them look bad.

I can sit here all day and link you to sites that are against palin and have quite the following.
Yet, what does this mean to the GOP? Will we really see a difference at the polls in November?

She's not the woman for me for her views on sexual education and religion. That's not sexist.

Biden was one of the big pushers behind the Violence Against Women Act and he calls it one of his proudest achievements. Palin wants to recriminalize abortion. I think it's rather obvious which VP candidate has better women's issues credentials.

Allow me to paint a brighter, sharper line between them.

In 2005, Biden wrote a change into his VOWA update that made it so federal money grants of a kind couldn't be collected unless a state could prove it funded it's rape kits through any means other than billing the victim.

During Palin's tenure, the police chief she hired decided to enact a policy of billing the victims.

Sharp bright line enough?

Palin is about as much of a Feminist as Obama is a Muslim.

Sadly, some people will believe both of the above traits.

I dont like her because she does want to take away a womans rights to choose. She is a religious nut that would put creationism back in schools ( I am not at all christian and dont think children have to be taught that. The basics on most larger religions are taught in schools for social studies. That's enough for me.)
Her ignorance on foriegn policy is astounding and it scares me.
The rape kit thing made me feel sick to my stomach. ( Especially those who say she had nothing to do with it. I dont know how she couldnt of known what was going on!)
Then there are her poor personal choices that I do not agree with, that speak to me as a mother, that makes me question her judgement.

No woman should EVER knowingly board a plane to fly ANYWHERE after her water has broke. I'm sorry, its just wrong, unsafe and stupid. I have talked to all my doctor friends and they agree that no doctor worth thier salt would say " Your waterbroke, but its a slow leak huh? Hmm.. Okay I think its a good idea for you to fly home."

But enough of that, I wont get up on my soap dish about her mothering skills , even though my opinion on the matter is valid.

My hatred for her, and yes, it is hatred, can be described thusly

I do not actually think that mustache-twirling cartoonish evil actually exists. but she is so bad, so vile, that she is making me reconsider that particular worldview.

You need to join the Werewolf game so you can wreck unholy carnage among people just like her and worse. Dig up Alaskan wilderness? Not after you're disembowled.

You know, I never thought of the Werewolf game in that light...

Polluters, supernatural or corporate, are enemy number one. It's every Garou's duty to fuck their shit up. It's like blood drinking to a vampire. If you're not doing it all the time, you're not playing the game right.

So... this would be a bad time to inquire where my laptop components were built, right?

It's the same thing I said about Hillary Clinton: I find the assumption that I should support a candidate because her genitals match mine to be incredibly sexist.

That being said, Palin isn't the person for me. Even considering that the VP does nothing but break the incredibly rare tie votes in the Senate and wait for the real president to fall over.

Are you Kidding? McCain has had bouts with Cancer and is frankly in frail health as it stands right now. I'm betting that the stress of the Presidency will outright kill him in under 2 years.

Ladies and Gentlemen if McCain wins this election Palin will be President before 2011.

If that happens, it will become pretty much impossible for me to live in the US...
