Conversation with my wife

Some of you may know her. She goes as LapisLzi on these boards.

Anyway, we were talking about the Palin pick, and she asked a good question:

"If Palin were a man, what would he bring to the ticket?"

The answer, if you're honest, is "not a damn thing."

So, logically, the only reason she's on the ticket is because she's a woman. And the Republicans (as usual) figure that women are just stupid enough to vote for another woman regardless of her positions.

It's just more of the same bullshit from the crowd who owns the franchise.

1. It's so obvious it's an insult to the intelligence of even the mentally challenged.

It's an insult to women that he OBVIOUSLY thinks they're just a commodity - one the same as the other. It's an insult to the voters who care about competence and a demonstration of concern for the plight of the least advantaged. It's an insult to ALL of us.

6. That's like asking if Obama were white would he be on the ticket, n/t .

7. It's a fair question...

And the answer is: Yes, he would.

Anyone with that message and those gifts would be on the ticket.

Or, do you really think we only voted for Obama because he's black?

8. well, I guess some women who vote are swayed by good looks

or what they are told is good-looking...same as men. So maybe the DILF vote?
