15. I don't understand "feminists" who think
feminism means voting for any person with a vagina who runs for public office.

Where she sees spunk, I see scatterbrained. Where she sees a tough champion, I see a Phyllis Schlafly clone who is perfectly happy to use the benefits we fought for herself but wants to deny them to the rest of us.

Amy, honey, you need a reality check here. You're promoting an addlepated lady against women who would set us back to the 1850s if she ever got the chance. You're pushing an abject failure at nearly everything she's tried, a woman so dense she couldn't name a newspaper in Alaska whether or not she was lying about actually reading it.

I will be delighted when Palin's 15 minutes are up. Unfortunately, the Amy Siskinds of this world seem determined to keep that dummy front and center, trying to convince the rest of us to vote against everything we stand for just because Palin has a vagina.

Sorry, Amy, that's just not going to work for most of us.
