Caribou Barbie flip flops on her status as 'feminist.'
Barbie changes her mind as often as she changes in/out of her $150,000 wardrobe

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/category/sarah-palin/

<snip>In an interview on NBC Nightly News that aired Thursday, host Brian Williams asked Palin: "Governor, are you a feminist?"
"I'm not gonna label myself anything, Brian," she responded. "And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds, different … I'm not going to put a label on myself. "<snip>


<snip>But Palin gave a different answer in September when Katie Couric of CBS News asked her, "Do you consider yourself a feminist?"
"I do," Palin answered. "I'm a feminist who believes in equal rights…”<snip>

1. Huh? "label different parts of America different"
Wasn't she calling parts of America less American than others the other day?

9. Yes, she implied certain parts weren't "pro-America".
That was the first thing I thought of as well.

3. If her floppies have flipped
then that expensive bra was an even bigger waste of money.

5. Uh, Sarah, you call yourself "Maverick" constantly
Isn't that a label?

Oh, and didn't she just say that the "real America" is in the small towns?
Isn't that a label?
