Yeah, sadly…I think they might be. I hope they aren’t.

I listened via NPR last night for the 1st time while out & about. After an hour I was so angry, I had to turn it off.

Are people really this dumb? God help us all.

Palin spent a lot of time trying to convince me that she was just like me, a Mom, a Wife, interested in her children’s education, etc. But let me tell you something. I want someone who is, literally, a heart attack away from the presidency to be smarter than me, not “just like me”. Those fucking hockey Mom’s can have her! She does nothing for women, except keep us in the mini-van. No Thanks! Oh, and at 9 o’clock at night, your five month old should be in bed, not getting pet by Cindy McCain,

It did seem that most of Palin’s speech was about talking down the opponent with very little substance other than the fact that she is God’s right hand woman and believes oil will save us. Those positions seem to be more than a bit dated.

I think I’d want to hear from the librarian before I accused Palin of book banning. I do, however, think her views on sex education and reproductive rights are totally archaic and damaging to women.
