"Just Tell Them...

I have worked 40 years to make the Women's Suffrage platform broad enough for Atheists and Agnostics to stand upon, and now if need be I will fight the next 40 to keep it Catholic enough to permit the straightest Orthodox religionist to speak or pray and count her beads upon."

Need a job? Want to Hang Out With a Bunch of Barely Pubescent (acting) Boy Punks?


Politic USA is recruiting.

If you are really a smartass, you might even be invited to join the mostly white and predominantly male Journ-0-lists.

And.... if you really pander, Obama's advisors may reward you with an invite to the White House.

Though many PUMAs knew what was happening as early as the Democratic Caucus in Iowa ... and many Palin supporters got a clue after John McCain announced Sarah, in Ohio.... the whole truth about the smear campaign against two competent and intelligent women candidates for the White House is yet to be told.

REAL Feminists are all ears!

Where's The Outrage Now (Two Excellent Examples of the Media Double Standard Against Sarah Palin)


This morning I awake to two excellent editorial pieces from fellow PUMAs. Both pointing out the media bias ... nay, outright discrimination, against Sarah Palin.

First of all... the MSM seems to be just fine with how Bobby Jindal is flitting around the country, "trying out for president." I am sure the GOP is happy that he is being fairly well received. Still, I have to wonder... is PUMA for Life the only one calling attention to the double standard?

"Just wondering, because if that was Sarah Palin it would be all over the networks in the lower 48 and in Alaska that Palin is out campaigning at the state taxpayers expense (even if she was paying her own way; the truth might be whispered a month or so from now in the back pages of the local newspaper next to the obituaries); that Palin is only interested in herself, not the people of Alaska; that Palin sure has a big ego thinking she could actually be president since she has no foreign policy experience and comes from a remote state like Alaska."

Meanwhile, Spiral Gate's Willow is curious about why Michelle Obama's wardrobe is A-OK with the powers that rule the airwaves.

She asks us to recall the time when Me-Chelle told Jay Leno:

"We buy the clothes we wear."

And, to further make her point, she (said):

"I mean, especially a VP pick, it's like being shot out of a cannon ... All of a sudden, you are the center of attention. But our policy has always been whatever we wear, for us, we buy."

What a liar.

Tell that to Jason Wu and the other designers and jewelers who have given her freebies to wear, including a pair of diamond earrings valued at $17,313, and that inauguration gown. Even though Michelle's press secretary claims they paid for the clothes, an article in the New York times quotes the designers as saying they did not charge the Obamas."


I like the way PUMA for Life ends her little tirade, because I, too "wonder about the people of Alaska. Why are they not proud of their governor? I think that is very weird and if anyone from Alaska would like to explain I would love to hear it."

Thanks for asking, PUMA for life!

Thanks for asking, Willow.

Cuz, if you don't... who's gonna?

Conservative Snobs Are Wrong About Sarah Palin. She is Actually Quite "Thatcherean."


So A FRIEND OF MAGGIE THATCHER'S tells us.

And I quote:

"(Sarah) has plenty of time, probably eight years, to analyze America's problems, recruit her own expert advice, and develop conservative solutions to them. She has obvious intelligence, drive, serious moral character, and a Reaganesque likability. Her likely Republican rivals such as Bobby Jindal and Mitt Romney, not to mention Barack Obama, have most of these same qualities too. But she shares with Mrs. Thatcher a very rare charisma. As Ronnie Millar, the latter's speechwriter and a successful playwright, used to say in theatrical tones: She may be depressed, ill-dressed and having a bad hair day, but when the curtain rises, out onto the stage she steps looking like a billion dollars. That's the mark of a star, dear boy. They rise to the big occasions.

Mrs. Palin had four big occasions in the late, doomed Republican campaign: her introduction by John McCain in Ohio, her speech at the GOP convention, her vice-presidential debate with Sen. Joe Biden, and her appearance on Saturday Night Live. With minimal preparation, she rose to all four of them. That's the mark of star.

If conservative intellectuals, Republican operatives and McCain "handlers" can't see it, then so much the worse for them."

And, yes, I agree with the eight years comment. I really don't want them to run Sarah for president until she is guaranteed a win. And... after eight years of Obama's Chicago flim-flammery ... the nation will be poised to elect a straight talking Alaskan. Sarah will still be quite young, too!

PS. I saw Sarah at one of the occasions mentioned in this article. It was her introduction in Ohio. And BOY DID SHE rise to that occasion. Just sayin'.
