Cuz you know Sarah Palin is waaaayyyyy scarier than Jared Loughner. (H/T Murphy at "PUMA PAC.")I am not going to spend a lot of time belaboring the point. But Loughner is not the only one out there who's mantra is "die bitch."
The politicization of the Giffords assassination attempt, by the boiz in the MSM is beyond the pale. (H/T myiq2xu at "The Confluence.")
No Feminist, be they Left or Right in their leanings, should be fooled by this anti-woman feeding frenzy.
A few other comments I found meaningful and eye-opening were made by:
Dr. Socks at "The Reclusive Leftist."
Rev. Amy at "Rabble Rouser Ruminations."
Uppity Woman at her self titled blog.
Amy Siskind at "The New Agenda."
and
Anna Belle Pfau at "Peacocks and Lilies" who was first out of the gate with her cogent statement.
Honestly, I would not be able to keep read political commentary at all, were it not for my PUMA friends in the blogosphere.
SYD is going back into lurk mode for a while. Just felt I needed to comment on this tragedy.
Peace. And thanks to all of you for keeping me sane.
SYD
Addendum:
Equally sensible and cogent post from a non-PUMA. (H/T Prof. Jacobson at Legal Insurrection.) Yes, Mrs. Palin is owed an apology.
And also linked at Prof. Jacobson's blog, this youtube montage of various Tweets calling for the murder of one woman pol, in the wake of the attempted assassination of another:
Oh. My. God.

We're not keeping you sane, but when you hang around us you look sane by comparison.
ReplyDeleteHaha, myiq. Very funny!
ReplyDeleteHi SYD: glad you came out to play,
ReplyDeleteAnd YES this country owes, Sarah, Hillary, etc......Huge Apologies. Our Women are not the enemy, I don't care where they stand politically-------They are americans first and foremost, each and every one of them that the MSM, old fart, ridiculously RICH MEN seem so SCAEEEEERRRD OF !!!---Bless & protect each and every one of them( our strong capable women)----, from this hatred and evil that seems to sustain in the hearts and minds of the testicle laden foools that they are.
PS: I'm not annonymous, I'm michelina
So glad to see you out of lurk mode, even temporarily, but sorry for the circumstances. It's been a tough week to be alive and cognizant.
ReplyDeleteHey, SYD - thanks for the props, and for your post. Great to *see* you again!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes - the way Palin has been treated is not unlike how Hillary was treated - by her own party, I might add.
Great post!
"It's been a tough week to be alive and cognizant"
ReplyDeleteLOL! Well yes, but considering the alternative, alive and cognizant really is preferable.
True dat, anon. Heh. Sometimes I do wish I had the biology of a bear, though, so I could sleep through this shit.
