If Obama ever gave a nasty, sarcastic, hate-filled speech like that...

[bunnies]

We'd be hearing nothing from the MSM but "Angry Black Man".

Meanwhile, Ms. Nasty-Nobody gets praised, commended, and nearly worshiped.

Sexism my ass. This is utter bullshit.

:nuke:

[marylanddem]

1. absofuckinlutely correct. it is outrageous.

[WA98070]

2. Can't call her a bitch, that would be sexist.

[tridim]

4. Can't call her a bitch on DU either.

I'm actually quite upset that the word is banned on DU (it's in the dictionary), but we have to follow the rules even if it perfectly defines her.

[backscatter712]

6. Randi Rhodes called her a bitch.

The way I figure, if she can call Sarin a bitch on her show, why can't we?

This inspires me to add to my deleted-posts pile...

BITCH BITCH BITCH BITCH BITCH!!!

If you're feeling offended, feel free to call me a prick. I use that term with male assholes, so I'm an equal-opportunity offender. Better yet, call all the rethug jackasses in Minneapolis pricks.

[Virginia Dare]

7. Sorry I don't bow to the nannies..

I call her a bitch because she is one. I guess I'll get spanked later.

[Why Syzygy]

8. Since when

is "bitch" not allowed at DU? Last time I read the rules there was no such thing.

[tridim]

12. Posts using the word were deleted last night.

It's apparently an unwritten rule.

[Why Syzygy]

20. Well .. I know

some women who left DU a few years ago specifically because DU would NOT ban the word, "bitch".

[Phoonzang]

16. I think it's an unofficial ban left over from the primaries.

I'm sure you can guess why. :)

[Whisp]

28. asshole is a way better description anyway.

I haven't used the b word in quite some time now and don't miss it at all.

and yes, it does have sexist undertones no matter how people want to deny that - there is no equal word of contempt to describe a man the same way.

stinkin' repuke asshole suffices nicely. ;)

[Why Syzygy]

29. That's fine.

For me, equality does not mean sameness. That's jail house mentality, and also the work of the narrow minded. No one can be "better than" in that world view. Big mistake. When someone elevates themselves through honest means, it lifts all humanity.

Bitch is a word for a WOMAN. Prick or some such for a MAN. Just because there are two different words for the two genders does not bother me in the least. It effects "equality" not at all. We live in a dualistic 3D world and there WILL BE words used to describe that duality as long as it exists.

I wish all women had to worry about for equality was the word "bitch".

[Whisp]

31. I see what you mean,

afterall it IS just a word. but so are many others that are pretty well 100% unacceptable here.

over my years of earball experience of how that b word is delivered with such despise and vitriol, Prick just doesn't have the same hateful oomph to it, in fact it has a slightly comedic pride to it in some ways.

you say tomato
I say tomatoe
you say bitch
I say asshole

:)

5. Meanwhile she calls *herself* a dog.

If the lipstick fits... wear it, I say.

[jgraz]

13. Specifically, she called herself a pit bull

Where's Michael Vick when you need him?

[bunnies]

19. No kidding. We have one too many pit bulls and one to few muzzels. nt

[Why Syzygy]

22. Leavenworth.

I saw an entertainment report about one of his dogs. She is now a service dog and visits patients in the hospital and people stuck at work in cubicles all day! She is sweet and gentle.

[jgraz]

9. Yes, please don't call her a bitch.

She does, however, seem to plaster on the makeup like a trollop (cue Senator McCain)

[madrchsod]

11. she said she was a pit bull....therefore she`s a bitch

[truthisfreedom]

3. We can call her snarky, sarcastic, and we can point out her of lying.

We don't have to call her a bitch. She seems like a nice enough person, but her speech was very negative and filled with bullshit.

[backscatter712]

10. Sarin is not a nice person.

Things like Troopergate, the librarian/censorship scandal, and her speech last night proved that.

[progressivebydesign]

14. NOT a nice person. So I'll just call her a FEMALE PIT BULL. n/t

[Shakespeare]

17. "She seems like a nice enough person" Uh, no she does NOT.

She's a vile, vicious, nasty, hideous beast. Fuck her.

[bunnies]

18. Im not talking about calling her a bitch in my OP...

just pointing out what hypocrites the MSM is comprised of. It's just LOVELY if a woman spews venom like that... but Obama would NEVER get away with it.

[ClarkUSA]

15. We went through this during the primaries, remember?

McCain/Palin learned from watching what worked and what didn't. Fortunately, the MSM is rebelling
against the obvious political ploy and most voters (excepting the PUMA whackos) who went through
the past 20 months have gotten smarter.

[bunnies]

23. I'm not seeing much rebelling.

Just blind hate-worship. How can something SO hateful be commended? I just dont get it.

[ClarkUSA]

27. Read this by the top political reporter at Politico.com, Roger Simon

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0908/13143.html

This piece was read on the air on MSNBC and CNN and the sentiment that reporters are just doing
their job was been echoed by Wolf Blitzer as well as Tom Brokaw, Brian Williams, John King and
Soledad O'Brien last night after Palin's speech. Top WaPo political bureau reporter Jonathan Capeheart
concurred today, as did the Time reporter who reported last week that McCain was "testy" during an
interview (I forgot his name).

[PeaceNikki]

21. And I'd be embarrassed if he did. It's juvenile and awful.

[bunnies]

25. Of course he would never do that. He's miles above that. Thankfully. nt

[PeaceNikki]

26. I don't understand how they can't be MORTIFIED at last night's speeches

:puke:

[catgirl]

24. She's vile

Let her keep spewing out garbage. People will get sick of of pretty
darn fast.

[Bluerthanblue]

30. and I wouldn't support him- Anyone who wants REAL change, who

has substance of their own rather than just venom, hate, and sarcasm- couldn't vote for someone like Palin- and her old man.
