You know what bothers me the most about Palin?... She does what shes told... she not a strong woman
Any woman who would let these liars stick their hands up her skirt and move her lips like a puppet is no role model for my daughters. She can't talk to the media, she can't speak for herself, she can't give an opinion, she just rolls over and lets them do what they will with her.

I find it disgusting and weak.

Every time I hear "Thanks but No Thanks" I picture her turning around to McCain saying "Did I do good" While McCain pats her on the head like a dog

Gag

8. I think that's why Mika likes her
I imagine they would have plenty to talk about.

5. yep, and look at how everyone here hated Hillary for being too
strong. Hillary the bitch, Hillary the ballbuster.

I don't like Palin either...but I find the criticisms almost funny...in a sad kind of way. I think it is a mistake for us to go after anything related to Palin's femaleness. That's a tactic with the potential to backfire.

9. Femaleness doesn't equate to weakness.

4. Maybe that is why Todd is joined at her hip when Sarah performs her job.
She just isn't that strong alone.

16. Maybe everyday in Alaska is "Take your husband to work day."
How common is it?

6. Have you also noticed
she can't go anywhere without the "first dude" either? Seems as if he's always with her. Doesn't he need to go be a fisherman, or oilworker, or play Mr. Mom or play on his snowmobile or something?

11. I'm concered about the role of Todd Palin
As the emails and investigations in Alaska show, Todd Palin is included in government operations even though he is a private citizen. Now, I know people bounce work ideas of their SO, but do they include them in their own work...especially when the SO has a job? No. That's not normal.

I'm concerned that Palin will disregard professionals and advisors for the advice and consent of her husband. Is she so "traditional" that she'll disregard the facts and opninions of those with knowledge for those of her husband? I do not feel comfortable with her situation.

17. Her religion requires her to be submissive to her husband in all things unless they specifically go
against God. If she is just pretending then she will do what she wants while telling the rest of us what to do. If she really believes what her religion teaches then she will always be under her husbands thumb so to speak. Pretty sad and scary either way.

13. You think they'd have let McPOW choose her if she didn't do what she was told?
They told him who to choose and he always does what he is told as well. They don't want anybody who won't do what they are told.

15. No one has gotten it yet!
Sarah Palin is a true Fundamentalist, a Fundie, a rightwing religious nut. Todd is the head of the family. She does what he says.
