GOP Catfight Brewing In TX: Palin v. Hutchinson |
|
Is there a cat fight brewing between two of the most prominent Republican women in the country, Kay Bailey Hitchinson and Sarah Palin? If so, Palin has scratched first, endorsing Rick Perry for Texas Governor over Hutchinson. This could be a very interesting race that pits GOP Christian conservatives against old guard Republicans. http://allspinzone.com/wp/2009/02/04/gop-catfight-brewing-in-tx-palin-v-hutchinson/

1. It will ONLY get lots of national press if it's framed as a "Catfight". . |

And I would love to watch. It'll be like watching a GOP train wreck.

If it were Schwarzenegger vs. Steele, would it be a "catfight"?
Or is it just sexier and more gratifying when it's two women and we get to use a term that's almost certainly sexist in connotation?
(A case of "bad when they do it, good when we do it"?)
Let's not just look at women as pussycats, ok? Or, if we need to have some put-down, find another.

If between the Governator and the Token then go ahead and call it a dogfight if it makes you happy. Or be creative and come up with your own sexist term for 2 guys duking it out. What's good for the gander is certainly good for the goose. Lighten up. Always gonna be someone offended on these boards!!

16. Offense is sometimes too easy |
|
It blocks some people from searching for meaning.

6. We're hoping it is a harbinger |
|
of some destructive fights in the GOP between the extremist Christian conservatives and the old guard. That will get more to switch to the Dems.

7. Uh, this ain't politically correct: wimmins oughta be able to engage in political |
|
fisticuffs without the catfightin stereotypin
I ain't got nary a nevermind for either Hutchinson nor Palin, but it ain't got nuthin to do with any "cattiness" -- I just ain't like neither thems empty-head Republicker policies
Golfargit! We oughta had some wimmins runnin that big white house place by nows -- and reason we ain't, is cuz that wimmins ain't took serious by some folk
I thinks I gonna root like it are a real fight: Bust her nose, Kay! Knock out summa her tooths, Sarree! Break her arm, Kay! Kick her knee-cap, Sarree

14. You will have to do so |
|
and write up the notes on the article for us. I'm sure that one isn't going to be online, after all.
