Um...because she's a divisive joke, Douglas?

Douglas MacKinnon, Former press secretary to Sen. Bob Dole, asks:
"Why do so many on the left have such an unhinged hatred of [Sarah Palin]? Why do so many alleged feminists and female members of the mainstream media openly and gleefully despise Palin?..."


First of all, Doug, whatever the feelings of many of the left towards Palin, they are in no way unhinged. Rather, they are a quite sane reaction to someone of such nauseating ignorance being selected to be, as they say, "a heartbeat away from the presidency."

And I like the way you say "alleged feminists," as though if you dislike Palin, you must not be a real feminist, and vice-versa. I can't speak for female members of the mainstream media, but if they dislike Palin--openly, gleefully or otherwise--my guess would be:

It's because she's a dirty politician who engages in the worst kinds of character smears and attacks. Even though she's a woman, they are allowed to dislike her for that. As am I.
