I love liberals. sarah palin is annoying, so I ignore her. however, liberals, women especially, take hatred to a whole new level. the OP basically saying that palin should not be allowed to talk. what the hell is that all about? there isn't a more hateful group out there than liberals.
IMO and experience, I applaud Sarah Palin for her "GUTS" in standing up, ignoring the ignorant and being honest and forthright in her support of our Constitution. She fully understands the difference between Federal, State and individual rights guaranteed by our Constitution.
I've been around long enough and had to deal with women in positions of power from organizations to corporations/business to political and I know there are very few women capable of shedding the "genetically-inherited" female thinking/actions in order to function in positions of power. Sarah is one of them. Margaret Thatcher is another, as is Queen Elizabeth II. Hillary Clinton is NOT!
Yes, she scares the bejeezes out of most politicians and has most of the female population (especially the Women's Lib segment) scared to death. In women it is usually jealously!
Comapring Palin to Thatcher??? What an insult to Thatcher!!!
Palin did not even know who Thatcher was...
Report: Sarah Palin 'had no idea who Margaret Thatcher was'
Early in the 2008 campaign, when John McCain's aides discovered that Alaska-size gaps existed in Palin's general knowledge (among those previously unreported: she had no idea who Margaret Thatcher was), they from time to time would give her some books to read in hopes of improving the candidate's learning curve. On one such occasion, Palin accepted the books, set them aside, and for the next 25 minutes was held rapt by one of her three BlackBerrys.
Eventually, an aide asked, "What are you working on?"
"I'm reading these great e-mails," she said, "from the prayer warriors."
Thatcher was not an end of times believing nutjob that salivated like Pavlov's dog at the sound of money rolling in as Palin does.
Palin is an opportunistic, self serving, mean spirited woman that has yet to show her concern for anyone else but herself. Will she speak out at her 9/11 appearance with Beck about how the Republicans are not voting to give 9/11 first responders the benefits due them. No she wont! Next you'll be claiming that this witch is Eleanor Roosevelt incarnate. Give me a break. Palin advocates to "pray away the gay" Someone should pray her away.
Palin blasts Schwarzenegger for tweet (http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2010/09/10/palin-blasts-schwarzenegger-for-tweet/ - broken link)
Just who in the hell do you think you are, woman? You have some gall, BRAGGING about Alaska's multi-billion dollar surplus versus California's deficit, when Alaska is literally a Federal WELFARE state, taking $1.84 for every dollar put in, when California only gets back 78 CENTS on the dollar. Why don't you return some of OUR money that your state has been "STEALING", b****?
It's especially galling for you to ask what Governor Schwarzenegger has been doing, when he's actually been WORKING while you've been gallivanting around the country making millions of dollars lying to the morons who swoon over you. What did you do in the 3 minutes you were Governor? Oh yeah, you lobbied the Federal Government for money to build your "Bridge to Nowhere", before taking off to run for Vice President, while lying over and over and over and over and over about saying "thanks, but no thanks" to your pet bridge project, then quit before your term was even finished!
Just shut UP already!
Yeah, yeah, I must be jealous/envious/terrified of her, blah blah blah.
I love, this post. Sarah Palin is a lunatic, who shood stick to hunting caribou [or whatever].
Besides, how hard could it possibly be to run Alaska? Don't the oil companies own that state [and Texas too]?
California has 37,000,000 people, and at least 10 of the nation's largest cities [LA, SD, SF [and Bay area]. Alaska has Anchorage and Wassila. Christ, more people live in metro Fresno than all of Alaska.
She was mocking Massachusetts a few weeks ago, for being liberal enough to elect Mr Centerfold, Scotty Brown. Saying, "they [MAers] don't have the common sense that Alaskans have." LOL, everyone outside of Alaska has the common sense to not live in Alaska.

the first statement is biased foolishness and the second is just laughable.

The gratuitous Alaska bashing does get rather stale.
It's quite a beautiful state, actually. For the most part the people are great, too.

Perhaps you should compare the percentage to the total number of women trying to assume leadership roles around the world! In addition, most of the people you list are too short-termed to have any record. I speak from over 50 years of "experience" and from having had that experience in several countries around the world! Do you?

The course you need to take is "comprehension." I did not "compare" anyone to anyone. I stated a fact that very few women can shed the natural and genetically inherited female manner of thinking and acting in order to function at the level of leadership.
What leadership? In which great and noble cause? Tell me please...I'd really love to know. This nitwit rallyed behind Dr. Laura and Dr. Laura said that a woman with an autistic child should dump the kid. I thought Palin supports parents with challenged kids, so what was up with that? Palin does not know her a$$ from her elbow and it is shameful that there is a portion of people in this nation that actually look up to this ignorant and selfish woman. Again, which noble cause is she leading? I've heard nothing but lies and rhetoric from her crooked mouth and her forked tongue.
