If Rape didn't exist Right-Wingers would never have Sex

"You want me to hold the aspirin?"
"I want you to hold it between your knees!" Vulture Capitalist Foster Freiss is a Rich Old White Man, Scion of the Patriarchy, and Billionaire Backer of Sick Rantorum. So Shut Up Women He Knows Best!

Repulsive Wretched Right-Wingers Rejoice in Rape. Conservatives in this nation are so eager to redefine rape because without access to rape a conservative would never have sex. Raping women and then banning them from getting abortions is the way Right-Wingers propagate their degenerate DNA.

Liz Trotta of Faux News is the epitome of the Modern Conservative.

"I think they have actually discovered there is a difference between men and women." "[W]omen in the military who are now being raped too much." "And the sexual abuse report says that there has been, since 2006, a 64% increase in violent sexual assaults. Now, what did they expect? These people are in close contact..."

Back in Liz's day conservative women like Phyliss Schlafly fought to make sure women were raped just right. Liz Trotta wants to bring back the ERA, The Equal Rape Amendment!

However, don't be fooled. The Patriarchy gives a select few women extreme power in the party with the tacit understanding those women will work to undercut, dominate, and render docile and sevile all other women. That's what Liz Trotta is doing. She's put on Faux News to be the power woman enforcing the Patriarchy's Will.

So while Liz, Sarah Palin, and Michele Bachmann fight to remake women into second-class citizens, these modern day Phyliss Schlafly's, don't run the Party. White Old White Guys Do! Thus enter Darrell Issa.

Issa is famous for not being able to pin any of Bush's massive failures onto President Obama during his tenure as Chair of the House Investigations Committee. But, what he can do is convene Meetings of the Patriarchy to debate women's healthcare. Issa of course, brought religious authorities to his 9 Man panel and excluded any women from testifying at his Inquisition.

When Chief Inquisitor Darrell Issa was asked why he excluded women
from his Tribunal on Women's Health, he said women "really didn't
belong on that panel for obvious reasons."

Issa and the Republicans are so stupid the committee was called House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing on the contraception mandate. So, if this issue is really about religious freedom why isn't it named House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing on religious freedom? Because this was a council of Patriarchs determining women's healthcare. Everyone knows this is a Modern Witch Tribunal and just like in the 17th century, Old White Men are the Power of the Inquisition to determine if the Witch Slut has defamed religious freedom!

While Liberals knew the Tea Party 2010 elections were lying about the economy, everyone in America is aware the Focus of the Teahaddists is to Eliminate Civil Rights and push through a Totalitarian Agenda of Reactionary Religious bigotry and sophist anti-morality. The 2010 elections, were a chance for Republicans to push through their Pro-Rape Agenda.

Just read in horror the vicious pro-rape laws Republicans are pushing:

In Texas and Virginia (and now Iowa?) women must subject themselves to Republican Sponsored Rape, in the form of Trans-Vaginal Ultrasounds. Here's what it partially entails;

A probe is inserted into the vagina, sending sound waves to reflect off body structures to produce an image of the fetus. Under these new law, a woman’s vagina will be penetrated without an opportunity for her to refuse due to coercion from Republican Lawmakers Rapists.

Ron Paul declared,

"If it’s an honest rape, that individual should go immediately to the emergency room, I would give them a shot of estrogen."

Honest Rape will, of course, be determined by the Patriarchy. Perhaps a special Witch Finder can be brought in to do the examination.

And just last year House Republicans decided a new amendment was need to Federal Law to change the definition of Rape. Rape would only really be Rape if it involves force. There was no definition of what constitutes "Forcible Rape" in Federal Law last year but we all know the Republican Patriarchy would determine what does and does not constitute Rape.

The Modern Conservative Movement cares not one whit for the 99% of Americans struggling through the Republican Recession. All they are interested in is exerting Totalitarian Control over the Nation, especially sexual control over Women. Right-Wingers are bringing back the Inquisition and the Witch Trials so they can exert dominance and control over Women's Sexuality and so Republicans can Rape Away. Because without Rape Republicans would not be able to Reproduce.

Update:
Here is the Vomit-inducing Dana Loesch, dutifully fulfilling her role as handmaiden to the Patriarchy, by proclaiming a Forced Transvaginal ultrasound equals Sex."

"Wait a minute, they had no problem having similar to a trans-vaginal procedure when they engaged in the act that resulted in their pregnancy."

200 million a day (the lies told by Michele Bachmann)

The Republican Party, feeling giddy from their election victories, is going for the coup de grace against President Obama. And they have no trouble fabricating outrageous over-the-top lies to accomplish their Coup.

Whenever the Republicans need to attack they employ one of their Wicked Witches, in this case Michele Bachmann, to do the dirty work. Republicans feel using a woman to slander and lie provides them cover and they have a stable of Phyllis Schlafly clones more than willing to engage in slash-and-burn rhetoric. The latest lie Bachmann has been sent forth to push into the political debate is President Obama's diplomatic trip to India is going to cost 200 million USC per day. 200 Million. And when confronted with her complete fabrication Bachmann doesn't bat one of those mesmerizing eyes of hers,

"Well these are the numbers that have been coming out in the press," she drones.

Additionally, besides the deranged lying Michele Bachmann, R. Limbaugh, Fox News, and conservative bloggers are claiming 34 Naval vessels (the equivalent of 3 Carrier Groups) are tasked, 870 rooms are being rented, and 3000 people are going at a total cost of over 2 Billion USC.

It's the Judith Miller Media Loop.

Republicans push a complete lie into the Media and when the Media starts discussing it, Republicans point out the Media is discussing the lie so it must actually be true. Yeah, that is your Liberal Media at work. And, don't claim developmentally disabled Michele Bachmann is insane because whenever someone dares to point out the imbecilic insanity which comes beaming forth hypnotically from Michele Bachmann's giant tarsir like eyes the Very Serious People in the Liberal Media get upset (with criticism of Republicans).

While the lies are utterly ridiculous and have been easily disproved, the DoD has said no Carriers will be in the area, the Hotel President Obama and his staff are staying at has around 560 rooms, the Secret Service states it's a wild exaggeration, it doesn't matter. Such is the utter lack of shame of Republicans and the sad state of the battered conservative voter.

The Republican Party is comprised of the most scurrilous, disgraceful, bigoted liars and thieves ever to walk America. What is most important to Republicans is control of the Federal Government in order to steal as much as possible and oppress and enslave as many as possible. If they have to burn down America and kill every American to get what they want they will.

If you're not Rich Republicans Loathe you and want you to Die

"...being a liberal is the best thing on earth you can be. You are welcoming to everyone when you're a liberal. You do not have a small mind." ~ Lauren Bacall

However, unless you have a giant off shore bank account the Republican Party hates you and wants you to die. Here are a typical pair of Republican constituents: Charles and Samuel Wyly, who along with their wives, have donated $2.5 million to more than 200 Republican candidates and committees over the past 20 years, including over $1.3 million to the Republican National Committee. And guess what??? The two have been charged by the Securities and Exchange Commission with orchestrating a massive securities fraud scheme that netted them $550 million. Who would have thought Rich criminals would steal millions and then use those purloined riches to support Republicans??

And after Billionaire Criminals have purchased Republican politicians what do they do with that power? Well, that's the real question isn't it.

As we have seen over and over when Republicans are placed in control of Government they actively obstruct regulations and enforcement on Big Business. And the results are devastating. Not just mega murderous disasters at the Upper Big Branch Mine and the 2005 Texas City BP Oil Refinery Explosion or the near-destruction of the Gulf but also incidents such as the TVA Kingston Fossil Plant coal ash spill and TVA Widows Creek coal waste spill, which released over 1 billion gallons of toxic coal sludge into the Watts Bar Lake and the Emory River and 10,000 gallons of toxic gypsum material into Widows Creek, respectively [SourceWatch].

These are just a couple of the most egregious violations. Republicans actively tell Wealthy Business Owners to cut corners, eliminate safety and squeeze every bloody dollar from the lives of their workers they can.

But for Republicans it's not enough they kill Miners, Oil Rig Workers and other Americans they have to emotionally and ideologically stunt them as well.

So, inhuman scum merchants like Don Blakenship, Charles G. Koch and David H. Koch also use their stolen blood-soaked Millions to push lies and retard the intelligence of their blinkered conservative servants. Blakenship and the Koch Brothers are famous for pushing the global warming is a fraud meme, which is understandable because they make their money by raping the earth and destroying eco-systems. So, any legislation that would hurt their bank accounts must be stopped. As everyone knows Republicans and Conservatives place their Money above the Life and Health of every living thing on the planet.

Conservatives value Property over People. And every Republican, having been bought and paid for, then turns around and votes to ensure the rest of the American People are oppressed or killed and kept under the lash of Wage Slavery.

The Republican Party wants to return the World to a state of Feudal Dictatorship in which Racist Conservatives lynch and enslave society for the amusement of fat-faced, flabby-assed, cowards.

But, while Republicans bandy about millions and oversee the transfer of Trillions of Dollars of the world's wealth to their Plutocratic Oppressor Overlord Class they continue to stoke fears of ethnic and class by invoking "Unmarried Mothers" and Welfare Abuse.

"All welfare goes to unmarried moms," says the evil Phyliss Schlafly, whose anti-human violently stupid ideology birthed Michele Bachmann and Sarah Palin.

What a load of manure. All the money ever spent to alleviate the Iron Heel of Republican Oppression doesn't add up to the money purposefully lost and stolen in Iraq during the Bush Cheney Regime. Republicans are scum who make it their mission to kill and oppress everyone.

Liz It Up

That Evil Asshole Liz Cheney The Torturers' Daughter is at it again. Even with no job experience other than riding Dick into a Government Job, Fascist Fox News continually puts Liz on the air to lie and incite Sedition.



Liz had to lay low for a couple months when the Al Qaeda 7 Attack Ad she and Chicken Hawk Bill Kristol crafted backfired and got them flak from Iran-Contra Traitor Ted Olson (widowed husband of the ardent anti-Clinton Barbara Olson who was killed on 9/11), BJ Prosecutor Kenneth Star and 9 Bush Administration Legal Experts. But, it doesn't matter. Liz Cheney is part of the Team crafting a Conservative Narrative.

Liz's role is to Attack to foment discontent by lying about everything every time she is invited on air. Republicans and conservatives realized years ago that by making outrageous accusations against Liberals, even when those accusations were shown to be 100% false, which they most often were, the accusation itself carried political power. And that is how the idea came to create an Alternate Conservative Reality.

In this alternate reality Conservatives and Republicans are Heroes and not the liars, criminals, thieves, self hating homophobes, chicken hawks and murderers they in fact actually are. The alternate reality is a short hand in which 'Ditto Heads' can ignore history and believe fantasy.

Of course, Republicans and conservatives are not content with merely living in their own Oxycontin addled fantasy realm, they must drag down the rest of America as well. So conservatives take the long approach of doctoring textbooks to prove Newt Gingrich and Phyliss Schlafly birthed America after slaying the dinosaurs who had eaten the all the Indians and were trying to stop Adam and Eve from bringing the Constitution to Jesus in Washington DC which was built by happy young Africans only too willing to Come to America!

I'm posting this from Driftglass:

only Fox News would have the huevos to task Liz Cheney with leading the charge with statements like this:

"I think there are some things that clearly rise to the level of needing independent investigation."
And this:

"There is not an impeccable record of integrity there on the part of the former president."
And this:

"Clearly, you need somebody to come in and take a look at exactly what happened."
And this:

"There is a lot here that just smells funny."
And this:

"I want to know what the president knew."
And this:

"This is very reminiscent of the campaign finance scandals back in the mid-'90s when they were selling the Lincoln bedroom."
And this:

"I think the American people have a right to know here."
And this:

"Were any laws broken? Was an offer made?"

Yes, that's Liz-Spawn-of-Dick Cheney -- the degenerate daughter of the depraved, unrepentant and conspicuously uninvestigated, unindicted traitor and war criminal of a Vice President -- who is calling for independent investigators.

Liz-Spawn-of-Dick Cheney -- whose entire professional life is nothing but the poison fruit of her Daddy's bloody, treasonous career -- who insists that this all "smells funny".

Coming of Age in the Plague of Reagan and Bush
Watching Capitalism gun down Democracy ~ Your Next Bold Move, Ani DiFranco

Democrats have won the Presidential Election Popular Vote in 1992, 1996, 2000 and 2008. The only reason Bush managed to win in 2004 was because Redupelicans used Bush's Abject Failure of SEPTEMBER 11! Shouting it every time they could and frightening the evangelicals by making scary noises about Marriage and threatening them with catching TEH GAY.

As the election power of Screaming September 11 fades the Republicans fall back to the classic move of blaming their failures on the Democrats. Liz Cheney is the latest Republican, joining Dana Perino, Mary Matalin, Rudy Guiliani in claiming they weren't responsible for the failure of 9/11. [When is it no longer Bush's Fault?]

However, it's only a part of the Grand Strategy of the Republican Party. Republicans and Conservatives are engaged in a generations long struggle to create a set of facts which they can reference and continue the duping of their followers. From this set of facts, Redupelicans can continue to get Americans to vote against their interests.

It's a brilliant strategy. The constant repetition of the Center Right Republican truth, the false piety, the Talk Radio invective, the Fox News blather, the mass produced propaganda books (Liberals are Fascists! Liberals are Godless!) have allowed Republicans to steal the wealth of America and funnel Trillions of Dollars to their Corporate Controllers for over a 100 years.

However, the Right's greatest recent success has been in taking over the Texas State Board of Education which exert extreme influence over the information which goes into Nation-wide K to 12 Textbooks. With their school board power the Right has succeeded in reducing the age of the earth, highlighting the strengths of Creationism, glorifying Newt Gingrich for freeing the slaves, praising Phyllis Schlafly for saving American Women from the Perils of Learning and correcting the record of racist Republican Bigots who loved Martin Luther King Junior so much they wanted him to die to truly appreciate him.

Conservapedia, perhaps unsurprisingly started by Phyliss Schlafly's son and while widely panned and recognized as a joke has still garnered the support of the extremists on the right for their de-liberalization of the bible project; stating Liberal bias has become the single biggest distortion in modern Bible translations. While this is absurd it's not what current people or Theologians believe but whether or not the Conservatives can brow-beat their children and future ones into accepting the Conservative Bible.

Both parties are made up of people who view themselves at the top of the American Social Stratification ladder; Especially when they reach the level of the Federal Government. And like all rich powerful self-important people they don't believe the regular laws apply to them, however, the Right shields and defends their members when they transgress because they view the exercise of political power as the highest good, when the Republicans are doing the exercising.

That way when the Bush unleashes the Smokin' Gun Mushroom Cloud lie and Dick Cheney simply states, there is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has weapons of mass destruction, the Right is more than willing to believe those lies or if unable then to accept the Noble Lie Theory.

Unlike the bigots who suddenly emerged for fiscal responsibility when a black man became President, but looked the other way when Republicans stole Trillions, I will hold the Republican Party responsible for their lies.

Evolution of the Bible and Creation of Origin of Species

The mob, having heard Christ, turned against him, and applauded his crucifixion. What it yearned for was the old comfortable balderdash under a new and gaudy name. The result was a code of doctrines so discordant and so nonsensical that no two men since, examining it at length, have ever agreed upon its precise meaning.

~ H. L. Mencken, Notes on Democracy

Conservapedia hath begun the de-liberalization of the bible; stating Liberal bias has become the single biggest distortion in modern Bible translations.

It's an evolving 10 step process starting with Framework against Liberal Bias and ending with Prefer Conciseness over Liberal Wordiness.

It's an admission from Conservapedia of their desire to have a different set of "facts" from which to believe in, a further insulation of mind, an ossification of their belief system.

But, the perhaps unthought implication which escapes the anti-liberal hate foam sloshing 'round the brains of the Conservapediacs is that the bible is not actually the perfect word of god. So where does it's authority come from?

Similarly, Ray 'Banana' Comfort and Kirk 'Croc-a-Duck' Cameron have created a new and improved Special Edition of Origin of the Species in which Darwin's ties to Hitler, ignorance of DNA and the axiom evolution=racism are explored, through the addition of a special introduction. Comfort and Cameron will distribute the 50,000 altered texts on 11/22/09 at dozens of universities.

On the plus side, fortunately, and despite British fear of invasion and reconquest by the religious fanatics who fled across the pond to America, the Darwin film Creation finally got a US distributor. So Americans can perhaps think of Charles Darwin in human terms (he was a human being with a family and passions, thoughts, torments) and not view Darwin through the christian fanatics prism of Ultimate Evil!

The fervent need to change ideas to fit one's own prejudices is strong in humanity. It's a human failing that once you come upon an idea or belief it is very hard to shake that belief and contrary evidence often serves to reinforce the belief. Unfortunately, the petulant ignorant religious fanatics who ignore and distort evidence don't go gently into that good night and would rather burn down The Library of Alexandria than allow knowledge to exist when it does not conform to the bible or koran...

You Are Unwise to Lower Your Defenses

There She Breaches! ~ Moby Dick, Herman Melville

When Sarah Hot and Palin inexplicably stepped down as Governor many thought she was finished. But, Sarah Palin like a Herpes Sore is never really gone.

Palin will continue to get funding, speaking engagements, support seemingly for a run in 2012. She is the strongest candidate the Republicans currently have... no one knows why. But the prospect of a Palin run is not one I look forward too. It is a situation which fills me with trepidation not giddiness. And for once I agree with the Skinny Blonde Harpy Who Shall Not Be Named the fear exists because She Just Might Win...

Palin won't even have to run against Obama in 2012 if the Republican plan to have him "removed" from office by a rabid Birther. She'd be running against Biden and she'd win. A Palin Presidency would be like having Tipsey Canoe with more tits and winks and less speaking ability.

From the guided palm of Sarah herself:

President Obama can try to gloss over the effects of government authorized end-of-life consultations, but the views of one of his top health care advisors are clear enough. It’s all just more evidence that the Democratic legislative proposals will lead to health care rationing...

Obama wants to kill You. You will stand before the 'Death Panel' wherein Obama will have the power to determine who lives and who dies. And since we already know ObamisHitler and the Democrats are Nazis you are justified in your resistance to them, however far you want to take it.

As an aside, the Right has begun to push back and claim it's a Democrat agent provocateur providing the Obama is Hitler and Nazi imagery, this might be believable if Republican County Clerks in Indiana had not begun Obama is Black Hitler prior to his election, if the quivering R. Limbaugh wasn't pounding away daily the Nancy Pelosi and the Democrat Party are like the Nazis and if this had been stated by a Democratic US Congressman - "That's exactly what Hitler did in Nazi Germany and it's exactly what the Soviet Union did," Broun said. "When he's proposing to have a national security force that's answering to him, that is as strong as the U.S. military, he's showing me signs of being Marxist." - Republican Congressman Paul Broun. Who proudly stands behind his comments.

So, Palin and anything associated with her (tip jars, divorce rumours) elicits strong reactions. But, despite the entire circus surrounding her, she is the best shot the Republicans have at winning in 2012 so to off-handedly dismiss Palin or officially declare her mystique over is a mistake.

bible

Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway ~ Epic, Faith No More

2010 has been proposed, by Representative Paul Broun (Yes That Paul Broun of the Obama is exactly like Hitler and exactly like the Soviet Union) to be the Year of the bible.

Of course, fortunately this means mankind can claim the next 5+ Billion years of our Sun's life span for reality.

However, in light of the recent important fossil find of Ida (go here for list of media/blog coverage), erroneously trumped up as the "missing link" and the outrage Google caused by it's Ida-inspired fossil logo which dishonored and angered god and brought man one step closer to righteous destruction, I am loathe to admit that the bible hath been proven true.

Here is the proof from Mr. Andy Schlafly. Italics to accentuate the logic.

James, you've been misled in your education. The Bible is the most logical book written. People have a free will to reject logic, and reject that 2 and 2 are 4, but that doesn't change the logical truth of it.--Andy Schlafly 22:03, 7 April 2009 (EDT)

Andy Schlafly, would you do me the honor of explaining why the Bible is the most logical book written? ShmuelB 22:58, 7 April 2009 (EDT)

God created the world, and then man. Man incurred the ultimate offense against God, and that required the ultimate sacrifice to redeem it. God intervenes with miracles from time to time as He likes. This is completely logical. Now everyone has free will to reject this and conjure up any alternative theory they like, but Christianity is the most logical religion and the Bible is the most logical book.--Andy Schlafly 23:30, 7 April 2009 (EDT)

I placed this under my Argument from Authority label but really what do you call this? Argument from the Neener Neener? Argument from god, bible and logic are in the same paragraph? Presto?

This lovely bon mot of wisdom comes from the egregious Conservapedia Liberal Page. I guarantee hours of stupefying enjoyment from perusing the site. The Liberal and Evolution pages are especially gratifying since they prove all liberals equal socialist atheists who, in turn, equal Hitler.

And as Paul Broun proved in 2008 Obama is exactly like Hitler.

Sowing the Seeds of Hate

Update:
Well, since standard red-baiting Obama is a Socialist isn't working why not just claim - Obama is League with Lucifer! Could Lucifer play a role in this presidential election? So asks James PINKerton.


You want this, don't you? The hate is swelling in you now. ~ The Emperor

Vote for McCain or get the Fuck out of My Country, you fake american, socialist, communist, anti-american, god-hating muslim!

The face is revealed. The spittle-flying vitriol has spouted fancy buds. No longer do we have fringe chemically imbalanced persons like Ann Coulter She Who Shall Not Be Named calling the other party Traitors, it's permeated and become the mantra of an entire political party.

It started with Sarah Palin and her gosh-golly darn-it, I'm so folksy and hot and Obama's-a-terrorist speeches and extended when both she and McCain equated Obama with socialism. I'd love to hear Sarah Hot Piece define Socialism it would probably be as understandable as her definition of what the United States Vice President does.

Of course, the most egregious example is Michelle Bachmann's call for an investigation of anti-american's in Congress. But if you listen to her closely not only does she believe Obama is anti-american, to Bachmann anti-americans can be found many places; "some of these people have positions teaching in institutions of higher learning, but, you'll find them in all walks of life all throughout america."

Uh-huh. Bachmann has no idea what she is talking about. Watching her vapid stare, listening to the pauses, the set patterns of speech, the stilted way she responded to questions which differed from her set talking points it appeared Bachmann had been given the RNC text of; equate Liberal with anti-american at every opportunity. She's a tool or a fool.

Absolutely, I have concerns Barack Obama has anti-american views. ~ Michelle Bachmann

Good. Use your aggressive feelings. Let the hate flow through you. ~ The Emperor

But, it didn't stop with Bachmann, who actually has continued her Obama is anti-american talking points. McCain advisor Nancy Pfoentauer divided Virginia (again) into real and unreal parts and the Real part supports McCain.

Robin Hayes stated unequivocally "Liberals hate real Americans that work and accomplish and achieve and believe in god", then lied, then claimed it's the fault of liberal bloggers. Dang those liberals! Not only do they hate real americans then they lie about it and slander a real american like Sarah Hot Piece and Robin Hayes!

And as a minister in an Iowa McCain rally pointed out, everyone knows the false faiths of the world yearn for an Obama victory.

Of course, claiming one's side has the Mandate from Heaven is not new in politics it's one of the oldest arguments for claiming power.

And the mobs which have been taken in and read the "works" of Coulter she who shall not be named, Michael Savage Weiner Liberalism is a Mental Disorder, Sean Hannity, these comments help whip them into a hate-filled frenzy. Socialist! Communist! Terrorist! Anti-American!

I'm sure if Bachmann was given her script and told to include the following words, she would find them and the men who penned them and stood in armed conflict against their government to be anti-american:

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

I'm sure she would declare this to be against the right of center values which in her mind alone real americans hold dear.

And a note on Bill Ayers and the Weather Underground. The Weathermen twice destroyed a hypocritical statue of a police officer which stood in Haymarket Square, taking this action alone how is it different than when the American Founding Fathers and Patriots destroyed a statue of King George III, which stood at the foot of Broadway on the Bowling Green in New York to make bullets?

If Sarah Palin has Nothing to Hide Why the Furor over her hacked Emails?

I have reasonable suspicion there is something criminal or at least untoward in Sarah Palin's emails. If Sarah has nothing to hide why not make your emails public? Huh? Prove you aren't a criminal. And if Sarah proves she's not a criminal by showing all her emails, letters, bank statements, then I'll apologize for my reasonable suspicions.

The Abu Gharib fall "guy", former US Army Brigadier General Janis L. Karpinski wrote a piece which sums up Sarah Palin the potential criminal nicely.

There is something almost sinister in Palin's attempts to seduce the voting public. She has a "come hither" look all of the time, and dares anyone, men or women, but especially men, to approach her or challenge her....

She uses her sexuality, and men's vulnerability, to intimidate them and expose their weaknesses...

She encourages men and women to be drawn first to the sexuality and beauty of a woman before making a decision about her credibility, intelligence and leadership.
