Mad About Sarah, by Byron York – The Hill
Wendy Doniger, the Mircea Eliade Distinguished Service Professor of the History of Religions at the University of Chicago Divinity School, wrote that Palins greatest hypocrisy is in her pretense that she is a woman and denounced the Republican Partys cynical calculation that because [Palin] has a womb and makes lots and lots of babies she speaks for the women of America. *** Carol Fowler, the chairman of the South Carolina Democratic Party, said that Palins primary qualification seems to be that she hasnt had an abortion. *** Juan Cole, professor of modern Middle Eastern and South Asian History at the University of Michigan, wrote that Palins values more resemble those of Muslim fundamentalists than they do those of the Founding Fathers and asked: What is the difference between Palin and a Muslim fundamentalist? Lipstick.
Byron York concludes: She really did take on the Republican political establishment in her state. She really did take on the Democrats. She really did take on the oil companies. She really does have a sky-high approval rating. And she did it all by starting as a concerned citizen without any connections. Its quite a story. (emphasis mine)
And Im here on Post Scripts to say she didn’t need to tie herself to a man or to an organization of “good old broads” to break that glass ceiling. She didn’t have to promote a partner first and wait in the wings for her “turn” to shine…she just took it. Her effectiveness is what has the elitists flummoxed. How in the world could someone like her who didnt graduate magna cum laude from an elite north eastern school, who didn’t play the social games, and who hasn’t known all the “right” people take on these behemoth organizations…and win? In their carefully tailored minds that’s just not possible. Her out of the box successes make their own favored candidates look insignificant by comparison.
There was a time when elitists would have refered to Sarah Palin as uppity and demanded that she know her place! They’ve tried hard over the years to convince the world of their tolerance and inclusiveness. But a day of revelation has now come. Their ugly underbelly has been exposed. The nation has embraced Sarah Palin and rejected the snearing jabs of leftist elites. And Sarah? She’s got a ticket to ride, and she dont careMY SARAH DONT CARE!
