Palin Jealously is Such an Ugly, Hilarious Thing

| August 29, 2010 | Comments (6)

Let me sum up this air-biscuit of an editorial in today’s New York Times thusly:

Sarah Palin is is a mean, racist, stupid conservative who is bad for women but who has, due to powers we are quite willing to attribute to witchcraft, inspired more women to get involved in politics in just a couple years than decades of our inspiring, sunshine and free ponies feminism has and we just hate her. Oh, and we want a Sarah Palin, too.

Far be it from me to school two such accomplished feminists on what women really want, but I will suggest that what women do not want is to be patronized by a couple snooty elites who can’t envision a world where women derive strength from themselves and the families instead of an all-controlling Big Daddy government.

I sense more than a little bit of high-school jealousy from the authors. Sarah Palin is more accomplished, happier, and more popular than both of them combined. She chose her own route, made the best use of her own abilities, built a family to whom she is fiercely devoted, and, worst of all, has a vibrant and loving partnership with her husband, whom she considers indispensable. She’s the girl next door who is just at home in heels as she is mud boots, who can go out off-roading all day with her family and show up that night as a fancy dinner and wow everyone she meets. And she does this all without an expensive liberal girls’ college education or years marinating in the poisonous stew that is modern feminism.

It’s a shame that the authors can’t say what they really feel: for all they say they hate Sarah Palin, deep in their heart of hearts they want to be her.

    You left out hot.

    But you nailed it. Seething jealousy. It just continues to eat them up.

      I admit, I'm not at all sold on Palin, politically. However, she'd be someone I'd want my daughters to know and emulate as they grew up.

  2. You nailed it, Jimmie. Sarah is a breath of fresh air.

    Great article Jimmie, but you know I have to ask…

    What about her politically aren't you sold on? I'm just a curious you have read her book, and really looked at the accomplishments she made as a governor? This woman has run a business, run a state government, fought off big oil and helped secure oil royalties for every Alaskan. I'm just not sure what it is that people expect from their politician? What politically is more important than prosperity, fairness and the good of the people that elected them?

    The feminazis whine and wail about their own "rights" to kill their unborn fetuses being threatened while not making a peep about the public stoning to death of their "sisters" in Iran and Pakistan and forced declitorization in Muslim African countries. Not a whisper about "honor killings" even of American-born Muslim teenagers.

    Nothing to say outside of their narrow self-absorbed autistic careerist ambitions. And they wonder why serious people regard them as whimpering narcissistic nobodies trying to play a "victim-card" role. How can anybody take these professional grievance jockettes seriously?
