Another Person In My Skin

[herwickedness]

Laura Ingraham, and I have no idea who she is, took over hosting for Bill O'Reilly last week, when Mr. O'Reilly was apparently not at work, because he had people to annoy or something.  So she spent part of her hostessing duties talking about why it is that feminists hate Sarah Palin.  www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/sexist/2009/11/04/feminists-

That...hurts me.

I don't hate her, and I never have. I feel she was a poor choice for Vice President because of her politics, her lack of experience, and her lack of polish. She said things that made her sound dumb, whether she actually is dumb or not.

She made choices in office that I found reprehensible, and she made choices in her personal life that left me questioning her overall judgment.

But...hate? She's not worth the karma.

It's easy to deride your opponents by portraying them as frothing, hateful, jealous people who can't get past irrational dislike to see how wonderful your candidate/position/idea is, but the reality is that most women, feminist or not, don't have to hate her to feel she's a poor leadership choice.

Much love,
Rowan

I can't believe that a news show was dedicated to this crapola.

And I agree - hatred? No. If I'm gonna waste my hate, I'll waste it on Saab drivers. Who cut me off. And then drive 20 miles under the speed limit.
