Fri, 20 Nov 2009 11:07:45 +0000 http://www.celebitchy.com/?p=63162#comment-530834 How can you write that someone is an idiot for criticizing the likes of Palin? If you want to get into it...I think that Palin being elected for V.P. is about as ridiculous as Matt Damon being "elected" as the "Sexiest Man Alive". Are you kidding me? He is 7 on his best day. No offense, I am sure he does (or did) fine with the ladies...but c'mon!!! If I was him, I would apply the same logic that used in outing Palin (as the nimrod that she is) toward himself and give back that title! I mean let's get real, I don't like much about Palin...but even she is more deserving of any sexy titles that are up for grabs than Damon ever should be. People just hear that he is "The Sexiest Man Alive" and then they think it too...out sheer lack of imagination...kind of like how Palin won over her masses. And I agree with Sudini 100% on the rest...There will be hell to pay before Americans let another idiot like Bush or Palin run the country...it is time for "old school" Republicans to fade away. Just look at them! From their bad hair cuts to their evil greed - they are actually upset that millionaires are going to get taxed 5% to help with a new health plan for the U.S. - IDIOTS!!!!!!! 1/3 of this population is lacking adequate health care...and these stupid f&*$s are worried about things like abortion...how about we worry about the Americans that are already WALKING the planet first?! HUH? How can you write that someone is an idiot for criticizing the likes of Palin?

I mean let’s get real, I don’t like much about Palin…but even she is more deserving of any sexy titles that are up for grabs than Damon ever should be.

The examples I gave were to show Palin's lack of interest in women's rights. I don't want a woman in office just for the sake of having a woman in office. When I said "right person for the job" I meant a person who proves she is capable of being in the position. I want women to have the best possible representative. I don't want to see someone like Palin, who is SO cloistered and inexperienced (she didn't even have a passport until a few months before running for Vice President of the United States!) I'm sorry, but to have someone run a country when the most they've seen of the world outside of their own country is Mexico? She has nothing to offer our country other than some folksy, badly written script thats made to appeal to the "common man" with no real substance behind it. So yes, it gets my fur up when she was obviously picked very hastily by the McCain campaign simply because she was a woman and he wanted to look like a "progressive" ticket. It's almost as if the said "cue the broad! we need to look provocative and new!". And I think it does the women's movement a HUGE disservice to use such an unqualified person as Palin as any kind of role model for women's progress in politics or positions of power in general.

That means you are not for women in power, you are for LIBERAL women in power. Sudini, so you are for women in high powered position but only the “right person for the job”.

I think if anything, Palin sets the women's movement back. She's small minded and not at all the kind of person I want representing women in the political arena. She's not been any kind of proponent for women's rights at ALL (ie. she's anti pro-choice, and she sat by and did nothing while rape victims in her state were being forced to pay for their own rape kits). I'm a huge proponent of women having more high powered positions. But first and foremost they need to be the right person for the job. Otherwise, they only stand to feed all of those masogynistic stereo types we've been intent on proving false all these years.

He wasn't to know that by doing so, he empowered others to speak theirs. All I can is thank to the higher powers that Palin simply hung on the rope that was given to her. I didn't really think much of this actor, until I saw/heard him when he did that interview. As a person anyway, he certainly made me take a second look :) He had the courage to speak his truth.

He's not even pretty anymore. You can (and I do) think Palin's a complete writeoff, but this jackass wrote off women in general. Of course he's surprised how much attention it got, it was nothing vote-swaying, it was just plain women bashing under Palin's name. He's always been a dork, he's just an old dork now. The only thing I've ever liked him in was Sarah Silverman's video. He's a twit. He’s an idiot – what he said about Palin put the women’s movement back a century more than Palin managed to do herself.
