I confess, it was pretty riveting when John McCain trotted out Sarah Palin for the first time. Like many people, I thought, "Damn, a hyperconservative, fuckable, Type A, antiabortion, Christian Stepford wife in a 'sexy librarian' costume -- as a vice president? That's a brilliant stroke of horrifyingly cynical pandering to the Christian right. Karl Rove must be behind it."

Palin may have been a boost of political Viagra for the limp, bloodless GOP (and according to an ABC/Washington Post poll she has created a boost in McCain's standing among white women to a 53 over Obama's 41). But ideologically, she is their hardcore pornographic centerfold spread, revealing the ugliest underside of Republican ambitions -- their insanely zealous and cynical drive to win power by any means necessary, even at the cost of actual leadership.

Sarah Palin is a bit comical, like one of those cutthroat Texas cheerleader stage moms. What her Down syndrome baby and pregnant teenage daughter unequivocally prove, however, is that her most beloved child is the antiabortion platform that ensures her own political ambitions with the conservative right. The throat she's so hot to cut is that of all American women.

Now this person, one Cintra Wilson says that if you find her public thrusting offensive why you are one of the "backwater, atavistic, evangelical Christian Taliban zealots everywhere."

Now, I don't know if Mrs. Palin will INSIST by dint of law if others cannot have an abortion FEDERALLY SANCTIONED, and paid for from FEDERAL COFFERS, which is all she can TRY to do. But I would suggest that as of today, neither does this Cintra Wilson. In fact the only extrapolation we can make is that as Gov of Alaska she upheld the law there despite her personal belief which APPEARS to be that abortion is murder.

I disagree. But that's just me. Never the less, I acknowledge she may be right, and she acknowledges she may be wrong by upholding the law

That would be called tolerance.

You know, that thing this Wilson needs to have her consciousness raised on.
