Palin is such an incredibly stupid vapid bitch
I have absolutely no qualms about calling her a bitch because she's the one who described herself as a pitbull with lipstick.

She's incredibly stupid because she doesn't know what the VP's job is, she didn't know what the Bush Doctrine was, she thinks the Ukraine and Georgia are part of NATO, and she thinks you can actually see Russia from Alaska. Well, there's a LOT more reasons why she's stupid, but this is just from tonight's interview. No fucking wonder McCain doesn't want to expose her to the media.

6. agreed
or at least hopeful that what you said is true. She made her convention speech and then disappeared, for the most part, until the Gibson interview, which she made a mess of.

Her true colors will show. She's uninformed and unqualified to be VP.

38. I hope so
But considering how long we've been under the rule of Wanker, I'm not sure how much faith I have in the public to see past vapid but "pretty." I hope I don't hear anyone saying they would like to have a beer with this woman or something equally asinine.

Actually, while I'm thinking about it, I don't really think Failin' all that good looking and her voice is annoying but I digress.

Regards

4. Well, you may have "no qualms", but as a woman, I have objections.
I think Sarah Palin is a vapid, shallow, ignorant asshole -- and an egoistic phony, to boot.

But I'm damn sick of ANY woman being called a "bitch", and I simply will not condone it, period.

29. What's wrong with "asshole"? Why do insults have to be gender specific?
She's a useless sack of shit. A waste of skin and oxygen. A jerk, an ignoramous, a sorry excuse for a human being. Her gender is meaningless, she's just another rw asshole.

So in this case, it does fit her.

I can't stand Palin but she doesn't deserve to be called that. Find something non-gender specific.

Edited on Fri Sep-12-08 09:14 AM by Fla Dem
It has ugly implication. Criticisms can be made against women without resorting to gutter labels. I totally agree with you and wish DU would institute restrictions on using that word to describe women.

7. It's going to get worse for Palin.
We now see why Palin went to 5 schools before graduating; studying is not her strong point. She's had DAYS to cram for this interview and what we see is someone that doesn't know their head from their tail. She's going to have to speak to the MSM on their terms eventually or the scrutiny will get worse. I hope she understands what's about to happen.

I doubt that she even cares about her answers, because she's the darling of the right. She could be Betty Boop and they would vote for her.

Or Limbaugh.
Or Hannity.
Or any of the other douchebags on tv or the radio.

However, if you think them reading DU is so damaging to our efforts here, then don't post here.

75. I think they deliberately put troll posts up here...
so they can express their faux outrage over them.

39. Would you have a problem if I called McCain a 'prick' or a 'dick'?
The term 'bitch' doesn't refer to all women, it's used to describe a particularly mean or vicious woman. Just like the term 'prick' is used to describe a particularly mean or vicious man.

It's perfectly acceptable to call male politicians "assholes" so "bitch" should be acceptable too.

I'm not here to argue or even criticize but I think it's better to attack her performance and not her personality. There's so much about her to put heavy criticism on, why just call names cuz you're angry?

44. New DU Rule: Sexist terms like "Bitch" are OK when used against Repub women.
Cuz then it's not really sexism, and, you know, she asked
for it sort of anyway, and she called herself a pitbull already, so ...

Usually there is zero tolerance of hate-words here on DU - for example when they are directed against a black person or a gay person.

But a woman is fair game as soon as she is on the GOP ticket? :eyes:

I see no advantage for our side in resorting to this kind of aggressive misogyny.

80. They look to the young men running the joint.
I like to think I'm not sexist myself, but we all have a lot to learn.
I agree that similarly hateful words would not be tolerated toward
minorities. In allowing it here against a Repub woman, what is missed is
that the language of hatred excuses bigotry and in this case sexism,
and cannot be contained to that one target person anyway. It spreads
inward & outward. It's not a good thing & certainly mocks the notion of
progressive politics, when the language of hatred is used to narrow
in on a person's gender, sexuality, race, etc. and is permitted. It's
basically encouraging such language. Have you ever heard somebody
justifying the N word by pointing out that they only use it toward "a
certain kind" of black person, not all black people?

Edited on Thu Sep-11-08 11:29 PM by FightingIrish
The Diomede Islands, one ours and one theirs, are about three miles apart. The natives who live on the islands travel freely across the channel that separates them and neither government cares much about these forsaken indigenous people. The communication between them has everything to do with families and nothing to do with foreign policy.

46. To quote another post- McCain could have done better through a temp agency.
You know, this is so ripe, it's hard to wrap my head around the possibilities. Moose in headlight moment. At least Dan Quail had actually served in the Senate. Or like those posters on Dailykos mentioned, Miss South Carolina talking about why people can't find America on the map. Well...um...because some people don't have maps?

the stuff she was supposed to say. Sorry, if I were her I would have seen through this charade and just said no. Hey look, I got 5 kids, one is pregnant, I'm the Governor of a small ass state, I don't know all that foreign stuff, you're not going to have me out here looking stupid. Thanks but no thanks!

53. i'm female and i think she is a bitch also
i use that word to describe Bush and other males also so i don't view it as sexist in my use.

i think she is an asshole also and many other things.

but mostly she is a disgusting piece of shit dumbfuck. i know more than that dumbfuck.

i'm disgusted that the hag McCain picked someone who knows far less than i do to be VP and so close to the Presidency.

the whole thing is a joke.

I don't agree with people using the b-word about a female candidate.

I respectfully disagree with many of Governor Palin's positions.

If we can't win this thing on the issues then we don't deserve to win.

65. No, she's not stupid.
You can't build a political machine from scratch, even a small one, by being stupid. No, she's smart enough to use Alaskans' ignorance and jingoism to consolidate power.

She's just never had to study any of this hard stuff that dear Charlie dangled before her, and it was painfully obvious. Given time, she could doubtless study up and learn the art of tap-dancing even on subjects she's unfamiliar with.

But it looks to me as though she won't have that kind of time before being sent home to Alaska in defeat. Look for her return in 2012, armed with all the right slogans and a passing familiarity with issues of national and international import.

77. Why would you say that?
Again - it's not a term for ALL women. It's a term used to describe a particularly mean or vicious woman. Just like you would call a particularly mean man a "prick". Do you have just as much of a problem with that term? If not, why not?

Why would I call my mother, wife, or sister that name?
