> [@Diogenes\_the\_Cynic](#): > > She’s an unqualified airhead chosen for a job because of her looks and her gender. She’s a bimbo. It’s not sexist, because it’s not a word that can be used to apply to all women. No, she isn’t an airhead; she may be unqualified for the job of Vice President, but so are lots of people who aren’t stupid. There’s no evidence she’s got a low IQ. If anything, she’s rather clever, especially with regards to furthering her ambitions and crushing people who get in her way. It’s a sexist comment. It’s funny how you, more than anyone else on the board, keep getting called out for bigoted comments, and you’re always dodging and weaving and coming up with new definitions for words in an effort to avoid the truth. ---

_There’s no evidence she’s got a low IQ_ Except her complete lack of intellectual curiosity, which is the best measure there is. She doesn’t strike me as someone who’s ever read a book she didn’t have to read, and does strike me as someone who didn’t bother to read a few she was supposed to. ---

In 1996, evangelical churches mounted a vigorous campaign to take over the local hospital’s community board and ban abortion from the valley. When they succeeded, Bess and Dr. Susan Lemagie, a Palmer OB-GYN, fought back, filing suit on behalf of a local woman who had been forced to travel to Seattle for an abortion. The case was finally decided by the Alaska Supreme Court, which ruled that the hospital must provide valley women with the abortion option. > > At one point during the hospital battle, passions ran so hot that local antiabortion activists organized a boisterous picket line outside Dr. Lemagie’s office, in an unassuming professional building across from Palmer’s Little League field. According to Bess and another community activist, among the protesters trying to disrupt the physician’s practice that day was Sarah Palin. > > Another valley activist, Philip Munger, says that Palin also helped push the evangelical drive to take over the Mat-Su Borough school board. “She wanted to get people who believed in creationism on the board,” said Munger, a music composer and teacher. "I bumped into her once after my band played at a graduation ceremony at the Assembly of God. I said, ‘Sarah, how can you believe in creationism – your father’s a science teacher.’ And she said, ‘We don’t have to agree on everything.’ > > “I pushed her on the earth’s creation, whether it was really less than 7,000 years old and whether dinosaurs and humans walked the earth at the same time. And she said yes, she’d seen images somewhere of dinosaur fossils with human footprints in them.” I have no problem if you are keeping your beliefs to yourself, but people that work towards imposing their faith on others have no respect from me at all. ---

First, I’m not a “pub” or “wing-nut” or “rightie”. Being Peruvian precludes it. **garygnu** , you’re right, although the whole navy thing must count for something. Also, the experience/qualification thing is not mine I just thought it meant something. **DtC** Wow! Did you feel a “burning in the heart”? Did you see a “burning bush”? Was it more “Damascus-like” and you were blinded? Let’s see. 1. _Governorship is inconsequential_. I imagine there is a minimum number of years and a specific list of states that “count”. Please, enlighten me, you _Servus servorum Obamae_ as to those requisites (I mean minimum number of years and the list of “real” states) I never said “outweigh”, at most I said “count”. 2. I see that diploma from expensive universites are also a requisite in order to speak for those who don’t have enough money to buy the pen for the application form the get a bum license. 3. \*Princess, snowflake, Barbie \*are the others you use are clearly sexist, but of course I am wrong, for I haven’t been baptised in His name. 4. Tell me, please, what scientific, peer-reviewed, double-blind system you have used to ascertain the levels of intelligence of Mr. Obama and Ms. Palin. Since in countless other threads about countless other subjects you have demanded the same, please don’t say “_it’s obvious_”, show me the scientific proof. 5. I cannot imagine that a preson of your intelligence, wit and qualifications does not get the obvious (even if bad) puns about Obama being some sort of Messiah and you some sort of apostle. This must surely be a leviathanical woosh. 6. In the unimaginable case that your superior brains did not actually get what I meant when I said \*“ **DtC** , I know that you have seen the light of “The One” and cannot 
 
 Obama (and other miscellaneous election stuff).” \* I meant that your political preference for Mr. Obama is so high that, in your mind, of all those who do not share your view must be stupid or evil. 7. A word that specifically means “stupid woman” is not sexist, “ugly” isn’t, interesting
 . You can call a man a Bimbo no more than I can call the Mississippi river a linebacker; you can, but it doesn’t mean it is right. 8. The level of hatred you spew to the city and citizens of wherever Ms. Palin was mayor of is astonishing coming from a guy who votes for “change” and “the little people” against “Big business”. 9. If by “weaseled” you mean “running against her own party’s candidate and winning”, yes, a weasel. 10. You **do** give a shit about her baby. She’s the worst type of pro-life, she actually followed her conscience. If she’d been pro-choice and democrat, you’d be saying that it proves that pro-choice doesn’t mean pro-abortion. 11. Your horse
I’m guessing at least 25 hands, a bit more and you’d get “soroche”. ---

> [@Aji\_de\_Gallina](#): > > If she’d been mildly pro-Choice (and, of course, aborting the clump of cells that turned out to be her extra-chromosomed kid) adn at least neutral on the gay marriage issue, noting else would matter. One of the few things I respect about Sarah Palin is her choosing to keep her child. There are a lot of people who speak out against abortion, but when it’s their pregnancy (or their daughter’s) it’s a different situation, and they’ll be the first to go visit the clinic to get it take care of. Sarah Palin had three valid reasons not to go through with her pregnancy - she already had four children, she’s very old to be having a baby, and she knew her baby to have a genetic defect. She’s at least consistent on her views on abortion. And please, stop mimicking that ridiculous campaign ad that is a blatant attempt to reference the “Left Behind” novels and paint Obama as the antichrist. It makes you sound ridiculous. ---

I have also never read the “Left Behind” novels (although I know what they are), and surely I don’t think Mr. Obama is the antichrist.

Cite on the bold? Particularly cases of behavior that are not common to any popular political campaign? It’s nothing but swiftboating. Turning strengths into weaknesses. In Obama’s case, it’s the fact that he’s popular and people like him that’s supposed to be a fault. Thank God for those reasonable people who show no such hero worship (cough). ---
