Like so many posts on right-wing sites it’s full of sarcasm; why is that?
Quote: “I don’t owe them anything, and I’m certainly not going to be worshiping at their altars as if my life would be nothing without them. I am the master of my own destiny, and it only makes me love Sarah Palin that much more to know that she feels the same.”
See the pattern here?
It’s the extremist patter, the hate or love, good or bad, God or devil platitudes. Immature, silly and covertly angry.
She doesn’t say admire- but “worship”…she doesn’t say the author speaks of a debt of gratitude- she says “as if my life would be NOTHING without them”…and this piece is titled “Women HATE Sarah Palin” and at the end of her post she of course says she LOVES Sarah Palin!?
My wife is not a feminist but she is a smart strong, career woman. She doesn’t care for Palin’s anti-women stand on the issues…that’s it. Yes, she thinks the winking at the camera and the Katie interview in which Sarah stumbled clownishly over some simple questions didn’t help, but “hate”, never!
