Really, Salon?
September 9th, 2008 7:10 pm by Kelly G.The dominatrix
Sarah Palin is trying to seduce independent voters. But she comes across like a whip-wielding mistress who wants to discipline a naughty America.
Seriously? Palin as dominatrix? Sure you don’t want to rethink this one?
Hohum, guess not. I see you’ve already committed yourselves to it, Photoshop graphics and all.
Seriously, tho, listen up. Better yet, look up. There’s Sarah Palin. The first second* viable female VP candidate. On the Republican ticket, to boot!
And there you are, reducing her to a sex object.
Nice to know that no matter how far a woman comes, she’ll still be a sex toy and sperm receptacle to a majority of the population.
(Need I remind y’all that Salon is supposedly a member of the “liberal media” cabal? Ain’t nothing liberal, progressive or otherwise hippie dippy about acting like a misogynist douchebag. “Liberal media” my ass. And if members of the so-called “liberal media” feel no qualms about loudly and publicly displaying their disdain for women…well, just sit back and imagine what the rest of American thinks of us.)
And, hey. In addition to being woman-hating fuckwits, you fauxgressives might also just win McCain the election.
It’s true!
Personally, I think Palin’s a despicable excuse for a human being - but this shit makes me feel more than a little empathy for her. Granted, I’ll never be outraged enough to vote for her (since she’s a misogynist fuckwit herself), but some women might well be. Especially those still stinging over Hillary Clinton’s treatment - by the media, left and right; by Republicans and conservatives; by the Democratic Party; and by our supposedly liberal progressive allies. Hey, the misogyny jerk-fest over Clinton’s pantsuits, shrill voice and cankles almost convinced me to vote for her. Just because.
And Joe Biden and Harry Reid ain’t helping. Just saying.
* Updated to add that I am, in fact, a dolt.
