Palin does it again. This time it's "Fight Like a Girl".

[Raschel]

Just like when she used 'blood libel', this uneducated woman continues her display of ignorance.

'Fight Like a Girl' is widely used as a slogan on clothing in the fight against breast cancer. I wouldn't doubt that she saw it and decided to use it.

In fact, this website even mentions Palin's name. (the link to Palin doesn't work) and it looks like a large part of their merchandise uses the phrase 'Fight Like a Girl'

You can also find 'Fight Like a Girl' apparel on many other websites.

1. I am not one to defend Palin

but Fight like a girl is a pretty old phrase which has been used to either deride a male fighter as being somehow inadequate or being used by females ironically.

[Raschel]

3. But she's not telling the GOP that they fight like girls, she's telling them to fight like one.

Makes no sense (although nothing she says does).

[dsc]

5. actually it does in the ironic sense

she is saying that the GOP should be tougher like the hockey team she alluded to.

[Raschel]

12. Here's a pic of her wearing one with the slogan. Now she's using it for herself.

14. Oops, here's the pic

[Raschel]

4. Oh, plus check out the link that has her name mentioned on it.

[Terra Alta]

2. Palin isn't smart enough to come up with her own slogan

So she has to steal it from a group fighting breast cancer. Really, can't this woman think for herself? She thinks she's doing a good thing for the feminist movement but all she is doing is setting it backwards.

[Raschel]

13. Here's a pic of her wearing a hoodie with the slogan. Now she's using it for herself.

[Old and In the Way]

25. She can't wear this one anymore.

Blows my mind how someone of so little accomplishment and intelligence can be so successful. I guess I expect more from my candidates than the average Republican.

6. Apologies for sounding snarky, but WHO CARES?!

Sarah Palin is a has-been.

[Raschel]

16. Thanks for the snarky disclaimer. Here's a pic of the low-down woman .

19. Thanks again, but I don't want to see it. I'm not interested. NOT AT ALL.

Are you interested in Justin Bieber's peach fuzz mustache?
:thumbsdown:

And yes, I did unrecommend this thread.

[Raschel]

21. If you don't care, why do you comment? Unrec it all you want, but don't act like you're being

bothered since you replied in the first place. When you reply you should expect to get a reply back.

I'm a breast cancer patient and I do care.

[Quantess]

24. So....the reason for putting a spotlight on Sarah Palin...

is because you are a breast cancer patient..?
I have sympathy for you, having breast cancer, but really.. To me, that is a non-sequitur.

I really do want to understand.

[Raschel]

28. The spotlight is already on Palin. The media has highlighted her cutesy "fight like a girl " slogan.

I am not "highlighting" Palin. I am pointing out one more despicable thing she has done.

I posted this because:

"fight like a girl" has become synonymous with breast cancer awareness

a breast cancer group asked Palin to wear a hoody on her show with the saying "fight like a girl"

Palin is well aware that it is a breast cancer awareness slogan

Palin used the slogan for herself in Wisconsin

I will continue to post and make comments on Palin's dirt.

[johnnie]

7. Don't forget her...

"We're here. we're clear get used to it". That was pretty bad.

[Raschel]

8. She said that? Really?

Or are you pulling my leg...

[johnnie]

9. Nope..she said it

It was right when I clicked on the link to watch it. I got thru about 2 minutes of her yackin' and couldn't take her. But i caught that.

[Raschel]

10. I shouldn't be surprised. I think it was last week she made up another stupid word and I couldn't

believe it was real. But it was. I wish I could remember the word.

[Jack Rabbit]

11. Jennifer Shahade, a US chess master, recently wrote a book by that title

I used the expression when I was a child (I'll be 60 this year). Back then on the schoolyard it meant a cowardly way of fighting which included such dirty tactics as kicking (no one knew what tae kwon do was).

Ms. Shahade turned the expression on its head. Women chess players have developed a reputation as of late for hard fought, tactical games, thus delighting fans.

[Raschel]

15. This is very well known as a slogan for breast cancer, here's a pic:

[provis99]

17. I can't quite read it:

Does it say, "Fight like me: Quitter McQuitty"?

[Obamanaut]

29. 'Bomshel' made a music video of the recording by that name also. nt

18. The Meaning of "Fight Like a Girl"

After many Sarah Palin's Alaska episodes, we have received a lot of questions and requests for "What was Sarah wearing?" In last night's 'Logging' episode, Sarah appeared in a hooded sweatshirt with the words "Fight Like a Girl" screen printed on it. As we have seen with Sarah and her family, this term could be interpreted in so many ways, since we have seen them fish, hunt and climb "like girls." But this time it was a very special cause — breast cancer research.

The saying "Fight Like a Girl" has become synonymous with breast cancer awareness, and has been used by various organizations to fun raise for research and treatment of the disease. The 'Think Pink' movement has tried to bring awareness to the disease, while making it easy to donate to the cause. With the staggering statistics of American women with breast cancer awareness is just the beginning.

27. Ok, thanks

I'm glad to see Mrs. Palin is doing at least one worthwhile thing with time.

[EC]

20. She's co-opting the tag line

hoping that when people see the breast-cancer tee shirt or sweat shirt they'll think the person is a Sarah supporter and doesn't know it's for breast cancer...remember they go for the low info crowd...

[Raschel]

22. I wouldn't doubt it. I figured she'd seen it somewhere and after googling, sure enough, she

wore it on one of her shows.

[bluetex]

23. That's not all she's said....

She stood there today and called our people 'thugs' and called them a 'rent-a-mob'. In Madison!


Who does she think she is?

[Arkana]

26. She just lost the support of every misogynist in the country.

And the teabagger men are almost exclusively misogynists...and they think they're not because "I love Sarah Palin!"
