Yeah, yeah Hillary will probably be Secretary of State…now onto other women in politics news.
Yet another senseless attack on Governor Sarah Palin.
But perhaps the most difficult roadblock to Palin’s candidacy is the same thing that has generated so much of her appeal—her status as America’s most famous “hockey mom.” Putting aside the demands of being governor, Palin’s domestic plate runneth over. She is a mother of five, including an infant with Down syndrome and a son in Iraq. She is also about to become a grandmother to the child of her 17-year-old daughter, with all the responsibilities that entails. And don’t forget her remaining daughters, ages 13 and 7.
No wonder feminism failed women. You can’t have a family and a career and be successful according to the Left.
Of course they had to attack her marriage as well. As though candidacy for office of the Presidency doesn’t affect a male as much…
Finally, her husband’s careers in oil production and commercial fishing necessarily mean he is away from home regularly, as does his championship-level snow-machine racing. By all accounts, the Palins have raised a happy family while excelling in their chosen fields. And they appeared to manage their domestic duties seamlessly during the recent campaign. But this was a two-month sprint, not the multiyear marathon required of successful presidential nominees.
I’ve never seen anyone attack a male VP nominee (or Presidential nominee) in this manner. As though Sarah’s success damages her chances at a successful marriage and happy family.
Disgusting.
