This Makes The Attacks On Geraldine Ferraro Seem Tame

The questions being raised about Sarah Palin are bordering on indecent. While she may not be the strongest Veep candidate in the country, she is strong, in fact she is probably stronger than both Obama and Biden in several areas and that is what has got the Left and the Media so thoroughly up in arms. Plus she is an attractive female - so apparently it's okay to attack her in ways men don't get attacked in this country.

Imagine asking a male candidate if he could be a good father and be Veep. The double-standard is as plain as the ears on Obama's head, yet no one seems to care. Imagine making Obama or Biden's under-age children - regardless of their personal circumstance - the number one story and then blaming it on them for not protecting their children! Al Gore's kid is a speed freak but we still believe in Global Warming.

If you're not outraged by the treatment of this woman and her family you need to re-evaluate your stances on a number of issues - equality, privacy, opportunity, chief among them.

The most fun thing I saw this morning was Barack Obama comparing Palin's experience as mayor (ignoring her governorship) to his own executive experience managing his campaign! Idiot. Your personal saviour is now campaigning against the Veep candidate from the other party and he doesn't even know it.

Let this all play out, because there's more to this than the media is allowing you to see.
